whatever you settle on, get the required training, and then practice till you are sick of it (then practice some more) I personally like a 9mm because the ammo is cheaper than .40 or .45- by quite a lot- this means you will practice more- and therefore be more comfortable with the weapon, should you ever need it- practice as if your life depends on it, and like when said life is at stake you will be tired, shakey, terrified and disoriented- because that is how it is likely to be.... practice shooting while standing, sitting, kneeling, crouching and prone- get instruction first, and read everything you can about defensive handgunning, all the while practicing shooting.... it should be noted that while I am a fan of the 9mm, a ,45 has better stopping power, as does a .40- but they have more recoil and tend to be wider, and thus harder for smaller hands to get used to.........
