To each their own, but.....

I hold the opinion that the 44 Mag is the basic handgun. Turn the thing around and look at it from the other end.

The 44 Mag will do anything the 44 Special can do and more.
The 44 Mag will do anything the 41 Mag will do and more.
The 44 Mag will do anything the 357 Mag will do and more.
The 44 Mag will do anything the 45 Colt will do and more unless you are using "Ruger only" loads.

So the questions isn't, do I need a 44 Mag, when I have all these other guns. The question is, do I need all these other guns when I have a 44 Mag.

I own many handguns of various calibers, but I am not getting rid of my 44 Mags. They would be the last ones to go as with them I can cover what any of the others can do.
