Surely the point of having a metal in self defence in your bedside cabinet is to use as a threat... not to worry about how likely it is to kill a guy?
If someone breaks in and you or your wife pull the metal on him and tell him to put his hands up etc... is he going to be thinking "thats only a .32 calibre, it will kill me a lot less quickly than a .50 calibre Desert Eagle if she pulls the trigger?"

In short, a gun is a gun.
If you want to hunt or shoot targets... fair enough it makes a difference and I would recomend you a high quality IMI weapon, but if it is to defend your home it makes no practical difference at all unless you anticipate a gunfight with a group of bandits.
