Well, before moving up to my 1911's, I carried a "5-gun" for years...a 5 shot 3 inch .44 Special. I believe that unless you're a law officer or such, too much is made of magazine capacity. The regular Joe carrying a defensive pistol isn't likely to head into harm's way like an officer doing his or her job. Just my two cents.




In days past I might have agreed with you but in this day and age where a home invasion may involve 3 to 5 people I think 8 rounds could be pushing your luck. Practice quick mag changes under pressure of some sort.
