S&W model 627, 8 rounds of 158 gr hot .357 Mag gets the job done as good as or better than anything. LSWCHP at 1200 FPS will take care of business. My best all around handgun in my experience.
Thank you.As a metric of measurement, not a tactic.
OK.Ghost1958:
This is urban legend, fake news, gun magazine fantasy, armchair commando crapola, bovine excrement, Harvey Weinstein denial, Hillary Clinton promises:
"The. 357 magnum with 125 gr sjhp was and is the king of one shot stops. It simply is the most effective handgun round available against 2 legged varmints."
There is no such thing as a king of one-shot-stops.
I would get a desert* eagle in 357 before a Coonan. The reviews scared me and has lead me to believe desert eagle has better quality/reliability.
I am curious what reviews you read that gives you this opinion
Thanks gang. No kidding the Coonan is big.
Why do all defensive pistols have to be small and concealed?
"...the Coonan .357 magnum 1911 style pistol..." Another pistol that requires hands like a monkey to shoot well

If it matters... this isn't correct information. The full-size Coonan magazines hold 7, so you'd be at 8 if you wanted to run+1.That said the Coonan holds six rounds 7 if you go plus one which personally I wouldn't do on a 1911 platform.
Ugly, predictable tupperware is what I carry
Shot for shot, assuming reliability is the same, which is more effective for defense?
That assumption is a tough swallow.
The coonan part totally skews the result.
