Your Handgun Type: Automatic
Based upon your answers, an automatic reloader is your ideal handgun type. Automatic reloaders are magazine fed and generally carry more rounds than their revolving counterparts. Additionally, these handguns come in a variety of trigger configurations including DAO (double-action only), DA/SA (double-action/single-action), or SAO (single-action only). Furthermore, there are both striker-fired and hammer-fired automatics. Maintaining an automatic is slightly more difficult than revolvers, but your willingness to get your hands dirty means this won’t be a problem for you.
Your Handgun Type: Revolver
Your answers reveal that your ideal handgun type is a revolver. Revolvers have a fixed number of chambers that house the cartridges. Unlike their automatic counterparts, revolvers do not eject spent casings with each cylce. Similar to automatics, revolvers come in a variety of trigger configurations. The type of trigger usually determines whether the hammer is exposed or is a “hammerless” design. Handgun mainteance is generally easier with revolvers.
Your Handgun Size: Subcompact
As the saying goes, big things come in small packages! Your answers reveal that a subcompact handgun is the right choice for your handgun size. The smaller the frame, the easier this type of handgun is to conceal. However, smaller frames can cause problems for people with larger hands. To alleviate this, many subcompact automatics have thicker plates on the bottom of the magazine to expand the grip. Revolvers do not have this luxury. It’s always important to make sure the handgun “feels” right in your grip before investing.
Your Handgun Size: Compact
Congratulations, based on your answers the ideal handgun size is a compact. This size handgun is a perfect balance between concealment and usability. Overall, compact handguns are slightly larger than subcompacts both in frame and barrel length. Additionally, compact automatic handguns allow you to carry more rounds than a subcompact chambered in the same caliber.
Your Handgun Size: Full Size
Full-size handguns are the largest frame handguns, and based on your responses is the correct handgun size for you. Not all full-size pistols have a longer barrel (e.g. Glock45). However, usually the grip and barrel are longer on full-size handguns. Depending on the caliber the larger grip will house a larger magazine and more rounds. Both full-size automatics and full-size revolvers are more difficult to conceal. At the very least it will limit your options on holster location.
Your Handgun Caliber: Small
Based on your responses, a smaller caliber round is going to be the right choice for you. Although there are concerns about stopping power with smaller rounds, accuracy is far more important. Hitting a target with a smaller round is much more effective than missing with a larger round! Some good options for you might be:
- .22 lr
- .22 wmr
- .25 acp
- .32 acp
- .38 spcl
Your Handgun Caliber: Medium
A medium caliber round is going to work best for you. Among these sized rounds is the ever popular 9mm. Usually, these types of rounds are expected to have sufficient stopping power when compared to smaller caliber rounds. Of course, larger rounds and more powder mean more recoil. However, based on your responses, you shouldn’t have any problems managing a handgun chambered in a medium caliber. Some options include:
- .380 ACP
- 9mm
- .40
- .357
Your Handgun Caliber: Large
It takes a special individual to carry a handgun chambered in a large caliber. Based on your answers, you fit the bill. Rounds in the large caliber category really pack an punch and stopping power is generally not an issue. However, managing the recoil of these type of cartridges is another story. Rounds that fit this description include:
- .44 Mag
- .45 ACP
- 10mm
- .50 AE
