I research all the guns I buy. I don't buy cheap guns and I don't buy cheap ammo. If you follow that rule, then I don't think it matters unless you don't take care of your firearms.
However, if you don't have a whole lot of cash, don't pay attention, and never shoot, an inexpensive, yet quality .38 snubbie, like a Taurus, with good ammo, is probably the better way to go.
Heck, I bought my SP101 for $240 bucks.
But I think, if you are somewhat experienced and take care of your guns, a good semi-auto with higher capacity is better for carry.
I have always thought a Kahr K9, G19, G26, or MK9 is good for this purpose. Much easier to conceal because of their slimness.
And an important point. If I drop my Glock to the floor, no problem. It will shoot. But many a revolver will need fixing after this.
