The .44 is more sensible and costs less. I know I should go with the .44, but the lure of owning a 315 grain .50 caliber weapon... It's almost more then I can resist.
I'd go with an MP5 or an AK-47 Assault Rifle (Kalashnikov)
Non automatic of course... [img]smile.gif[/img]

GREAT for home defense! Just take a pic of you holding one, and paste it on every window of your home, and NO ONE will dare enter your home!

All kidding aside, I would go with a 9mm. less kickback, which means better aim.
[/QUOTE]I have a glock 9mm right now and I really like it. I just got this very strong impulse today to buy a new gun, and I've been eyeing the Desert Eagles for awhile. I don't know about Florida, but out here it is almost impossible to find any civilian assault weapons for a decent price. I have an SKS with the old stripper clip setup, and I'm dying to get a AR-15, but those are SO friggin expensive now!
