Am I crazy for carting a 44 Mag for personal protection ?

Short answer: yes, you are.

Long answer: You need to carry something with Stopping Power. I carry a .25 ACP Jennings- If I am in a bad situation and pull out the old Zamac wonder, the bad guy stops immediately and laughs, giving me time for a quick getaway. No muss, no fuss- leave 'em rolling on the floor.

There have been occasions when all I had was a NAA .22 mag but generally bigger is better.

 

[Eastexasrick]

Yes.

Nope. It's a nice downsize from 500/ 460 Magnums which can be cumbersome.

Most of these old coots think 7 rounds of 45aarp is more than plenty so take their opinions for what it's worth.

Not at all. Works great for this guy too.

Back it up with a 30 round 308 AR 10 you're good!

I carry a 3 inch Lew Horton 629 in a Galco for those occasional Alien/Predator encounters and nuking from orbit isn't a viable option...............

Pansies. The whole lot of you.

.454 Casull snubbie is a non pansie caliber to carry.

Smith & Wesson .500 Magnum, when you want to make the biggest hole the law allows.

Looks more like Big Lake than San Angelo with the rig in the background.
