My "personal protection" choice is a Ruger Police Service Six .357 Magnum firing Plus-P Hydroshock fragged hollow-points. No double-tap required, baby... just one'll do fine.

The late Mrs. harpseal carried a 4 inch barreled .357 magnum in her purse. It was loaded with Remmington hollow points. It is a very effective one shot stopper.
Unfortunately the regular armed forces are restricted to ball ammunition and can not take advantage of hollow points. This fact mandates they be given a .45 acp service pistol, IMHO.

Oddly enough,
Me too,
and
I'm a 1911/.45 freak.
But
when I grab something to take along,
it's that old, cheap, heavy barrel, Ruger
