[QUOTE="perfor8, post: 4275596, member: 10088"] Not trying to be smart-aleck at all... but my wife and girls carry a snub-nose, hammerless, S&W in .38, or .357 loaded with .38. They're not highly trained, but all they have to remember is pull the trigger and keep pulling it. About twice a year I ask 'em "how do you run this?" Answer: (with an eye roll) "pull the trigger". Can be fired through a purse or jacket pocket without fouling/malfunctioning and turning into a single-shot weapon. Won't go out of battery (and therefore not fire) if pressed against bad guy's ribcage or grabbed by bad guy. Pepper spray is difficult to deploy on an assailant. You might notice most uses are "offensive" on immobile but noncompliant subjects (by LEO), not defensively on assailants. The same with tasers. Additionally, taser effect ceases completely the instant contact is lost. [/QUOTE]
