When first time/novice gun buyers ask me for a recommendation, my first response is almost always a revolver. In my opinion, autos tend to frighten and confuse them and in a high stress scenario, revolvers leave little to the imagination other than just pull the trigger. Also, statistics clearly show that the overwhelming majority of civilian (self defense) shootings, involve three rounds or less.
Edited to add: although when you thnk about ut, striker fired autos are kinda like an "automatic revolver.". Still an opinion but I'll still recommend a revolver/

A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”
