My night stand pistol is a Glock 30 .45 acp...and a 'double-C' Maglight...which the LED light works quite well in the house and around in the yard.
I'm really just wanting something that can be used in CQB in-and-around the house...that holds more rounds than the Glock.
Cost-wise...I don't currently reload but I am wanting to, however, that's a set-up that I have not yet invested in at this time.
The more I read up on some of the costs of .300BLK...the more I lean away from going in that direction.
On the flip side...it can get really complicated with all the choices in building a home-defense pistol...whereas a Ruger Mini-30 in 7.62 x 39 with a couple of 20-round magazines would also be a excellent choice for an in-and-around the home defensive weapon.
I just want something that has a little more firepower than my night stand based Glock 30 that is short, quick, simple, reliable, accurate, and gives me a 'quick-response' ability to something...should the need for it ever arise?
Matching the wife's pistol in 5.56 isn't the worst-case scenario as it would allow for the use of interchangeable magazines and remove the possibility of grabbing an incorrect magazine at a bad time.
