I want at LEAST a .40, since I do not trust a 9mm with a one-shot stop.
Don't trust a .40S&W with a "one-shot stop" either. As a matter of fact don't trust any firearm with a "one-shot stop".
Shot placement is the key. Carry what you are comfortable with and can shoot accurately.
Caliber and round quantity does NOT make up for poor marksmanship.
22's kill more people every year than any other cartridge in the US.
If you have to shoot in self-defense you shoot until the threat is stopped (on the ground not moving).

I still don't get why you people feel the need to carry handguns around. I mean, it's an incredibly inneficient way of killing someone in a hurry, very easy to hurt yourself with, expensive, and liable to get you arrested in some states.
A nice 12-gauge is a far better option, with the ability to blow chunks out of people at short range, or out up to SMG ranges with slugs. And with something that size, you're sure to only haul it out when REALLY needed.
Handguns are one of the most efficient self-defense tools man has available.
Shotguns are great self-defense firearms for your property, but not out-and-about.
Difficult to carry and the chance of damage to property or hitting an innocent person is too high.

I could get this legal (class III) shotgun in my pants - drawing it may be a different story

im sorry man, but it is completely impossible to conceal a shotgun to carry it. there is just no way. i have a shotgun that has a PISTOL grip.....no stock. NOT going to be able to conceal it. .
Don't forget about the judge, technically it shoots .410 shotgun shells.

Oh it's not impossible, it would just be highly illegal. Just get a cheap break open single barrel or double barrel, shorten the stock up, or make a pistols style for it, and chop the barrel down to about 8 inches, bam easily concealable shotgun that would land you in jail for ten years if caught
Class III (S.B.S.) weapon, could conceal in some states if you possess a concealed carry permit.

I decided to buy the .40 pistol. Not because of the firepower argument, but because of how the pistol felt. The .45 grip was just a hair longer than the .40's grip. The grip of the .40 feels like it just melted in my hand, and it is a natural pointer for me.
Sounds like you made the right decision.

And yes, I know there are going to be a lot of people who will want to argue and debate my choices. That is fine.
