Excuse me Chosen One, didn’t Hitler make disarming the public one of his first missions, and then he rounded millions of them up and killed them? Zero is such a Captain Obvious. Geez the guy just can’t contain his zeal for destroying the foundations of this country. The libtards finally got a real Marxist. Hey, anyone have any opinions on the New Model Ruger Super Blackhawk S-458N? Too much recoil for a woman to fire? It takes .44 Rem Mags and has the 4 5/8 inch barrel.

Firearm choice is a rather personal thing, I look for quality,, to me it’s more a matter of getting the job done reliably rather than doing it in the most spectacular way... If you need that amount of power (bears or other LARGE animals) then by all means get that or a model 29/629 ... for me a .38 snubby or compact pistol in .380 or 9mm is A-Ok , especially as compact means you have it on you and available more often.

Full-house 44Mags might be a bit much for extended sessions (but some Pachmeyer or Hogue grips to absorb some of the recoil shock may help).

If you reload, you could moderate the recoil with a lighter bullet (like a 200-grain Rainier) and a lighter powder load.

And 44 Specials in that particular firearm would do very nicely for practice and most practical applications.

I highly recommend John Taffin's Book of the .44 (www.sixguns.com), as well as his many articles on the "Perfect Packin' Gun". Also "Sixguns" by Elmer Keith.
