Since you already have an autoloader, and being that the 9mm and .45 are so similar ballistically speaking, I would say go for the revolver. Then later save up and buy the 1911 and keep both

357 has more stopping power than a 45, especially if the barrel is longerComment

For reals, get both. You will not be happy with just one.
Besides, there is something nostalgic about a wheel gun. Like owning a .30-30 lever . . .Comment

I' am not too sure on price but I think last time I purchased that ammo 357 was a little more. I feel it would be more economical for a 45acp. but a 357 is a must have for standard big revolver My Dad had a ruger security 6 magnum in 357 when I was a kid it was awesome! I want one of my own now!!"So you're saying the spoon made Rosie fat?"Comment

bit the bullet, so to speak...Ordered the RIA 1911 CS 3.5" from budsgunshop a few minutes ago. $417 shipped, my receiving FFL is charging me $50 including the dros + CA tax so I will be just a few dollars over $500 by the time I have it in my hands. Pretty excited, now the wait on shipping then my 10 days can start.Any man who afflicts the human race with ideas must be prepared to see them misunderstood. - H.L Mencken

If you choose to go with a wheelgun, I'd go with a S&W 642/442 for the same price as the Rossi, or the LCR if you really want something in .357.sigpic
