Hi Guys, you were talking about .44 mag. Would a short barrel (1.5 inches) have adequate stopping power for self defence?. I have an American Derringer .44 Mag, and that is about the length of barrel left after you load it. It's not unpleasant to shoot. It sounds real powerful. I was just wondering if maybe I was losing a significant amount of energy even with medium loads. Thanks. G.W.
