I'm trying to decide which gun I really want to carry.
Among my collection are a Makarov and a .22 Phoenix. I know, I know, the Phoenix is a junk gun, but my dad and I put several hundred rounds through it without any problems. I'm also pretty good with it - much better than I am with anything other than my Mark I and my Hi-Point 995 (neither of which I'm going to carry).
I've been carrying the Makarov because of the (perceived) improved stopping power, but I'm just not that accurate with it yet.
Is it better to carry something that you can shoot accurately or something with more stopping power that you aren't as good with?
