It might be a rather odd and general question: While gun people seem to differentiate their stuff according to its function ("range gun", home defence", "CC", " hiking gun"), I couldn't very mich find such distinctions when scrutinizing the various statements objectively. The very same guns that are praised as ideal for home defence in one thread are described as the perfect tool for, say, backpacking in the next. Apart from obvious specifications like "small guns for CC" or ".22lr for plinking", I don't see much difference between the main product lines of semiautos and revolvers as far as their potential use is concerned.
Interestingly, not even the marketing guys seem to be interested in more specific categories as the categories in which handguns are commonly put for sale (size; self-defense vs. targe) are not very specific either.
So is this all a matter of individual preferences or ARE there guns that are better for very specific roles than others?
