cknight98,
IMHO----You can't go wrong with a good wheel gun as a defensive weapon! All a handgun should be for anyway is to fight your way back to your long gun! I carried a S&W mdl 36 for years and never felt undergunned. That was back before the gun writers convinced me I needed an auto with at least two extra mags! I sometimes carry a pocket gun now with no extra ammo------------guess I'm slipping back!!
Stay Safe,
Savage
