I sure hope so.
I'm looking for a compact unit with plenty of "knock-down" power.
Any suggestions?

Springfield Sledgehammer...the .500 Smith & Wesson.

My suggestion would be a model 60 .38 J frame stainless S&W. Works well with a snap shut holster that can be well concealed in the small of the back. Low maintaince good balance. If you want something a bit bigger go to the model 66 K frame .357.
I expect to go straight to hell...........at least I won't have to spend time making new friends.

If you go for the S&W make sure it's stainless. That is the most realible and also the best.
