Seems pretty obvious to me that a double action revolver is inherently less likely to to be accidentally fired by a complete novice, and is also a great deal simpler to learn its basic operation. As long as they know how to load, unload, and to never thumb cock the hammer, that's about all they need to know for safe handling. After about one range session with a competent teacher, they should also be able to plug someone with it at close range. That's about all many people want to know about the home defense gun they just purchased. And for those people, you can't do better than to recommend a medium frame, double action, .38 or .357 Magnum revolver.
If they later find that they also enjoy shooting, a very high level of skill and effectiveness can be achieved with a bit more training and range time with their revolver.
Exactly how a semi auto is used. Wow
