If I God forbid ever need to actually use my CW then having it taken as evidence would be the last thing on my mind. The only reason to use a weapon on another human is to kill them, and if I have been forced to take that decision and am morally justified it was him or me. In that case I want the tool that I am forced to use to be the most effective and reliable tool that I can reasonable get my hands on. Saving money a defense weapon is not the best idea, take a sack lunch to work if you need to save a few bucks, but buy good guns and appropriate factory ammo for carry. Take as many classes as you can from the best instructors you can find, then practice regularly. I spend more on reloading components and ammo than I do on guns and some might think I spend too much on guns. Sorry for the rant.
