The Yankee Marshal identifies the 5-shot .38 Special revolver as the most obsolete personal defense handgun still commonly purchased. He argues that modern advancements in firearm technology have rendered these revolvers inferior to alternatives in terms of capacity, caliber, weight, and overall performance. While acknowledging the historical significance of firearms like the 1911, he emphasizes that modern iterations and other handgun designs offer superior options for concealed carry and self-defense.
The Glock 43 is a highly concealable, reliable 9mm pistol ideal for concealed carry and personal defense. While praised for its massive aftermarket support, ease of maintenance, and affordable price, its low 6+1 capacity and basic sights are noted drawbacks. The stock trigger is functional but can feel 'crunchy,' and recoil is described as 'snappy' for extended shooting sessions.
