Lugers for Self Defense?

It's great to hear that at least a couple of our members rely on one of these old workhorses for protection.

Me, I confess to being biased against autoladers in general for self defense (though a new Kel Tec .380 is starting to ride in my front pocket as frequently as my old reliable, but underpowered and difficult-to-hit-anything-with. North American Arms .22LR used to).

I like the old wheelgun: I figure 5 or 6 shots that I can depend on should get me out of any jam that any pistol can get me out of.
