Like I've asked before: "What makes a 230gr. .45Colt/ACP(or 158gr. .357MAG) bullet any less effective coming out of the barrel of  a single-action revolver than from a double-action revolver?"......  8)

There is a certain humor to the fact that some "experts" wax poetic about the .357 or .44 Special in a 5-shot DA platform, typically carried without reloads, while poo-poo'ing an SA .357, .44 or .45 5-shot (or 6 in the case of a transfer bar Ruger).

Thank you all for your input. I realize to use what you have, anything you have, to protect yourself and loved ones and keep everyone above ground. Just wanderd how the courts  have treated people in the past that have had to use their single actions to defend themselves. I have read alot  to only use DOA revolvers for SD or bad things can  happen to you in court after the situation is over. I feel it should not matter what you use as long as everyone survives the bad situation. Sad that it should matter in court.
