Common Questions About Handguns

What type of handgun is best for self-defense?

The best handgun for self-defense depends on your experience level, comfort, and intended use. Compact 9mm semi-automatic pistols are a popular choice for many because they offer a reliable balance of manageable recoil, magazine capacity, and stopping power. That said, we offer a wide range of handguns to suit every shooter, from first-time buyers to seasoned professionals.

Our selection includes both pistols and revolvers in a variety of calibers such as .22 LR, .380 ACP, 10mm Auto, .45 ACP, and more. Whether you're looking for something lightweight for concealed carry, a full-size model for home defense, or a caliber you’re already trained with, Frontier Justice is here to help you find a handgun that fits your needs, skill level, and lifestyle.

Is a revolver or pistol better for beginners?
Revolvers are known for simplicity and reliability, while modern pistols offer higher capacity and faster reloads. The best choice depends on your comfort level and intended use.

What’s the difference between a pistol and a revolver?
The main difference lies in how each type of handgun stores and cycles ammunition. Pistols are typically semi-automatic, using a magazine to hold multiple rounds and automatically chamber the next round after each shot. They’re popular for concealed carry and home defense due to their higher capacity and faster reload time.

Revolvers, on the other hand, use a rotating cylinder, usually holding 5 to 7 rounds. They are known for their simplicity, mechanical reliability, and ease of maintenance, making them a solid option for both beginners and those who prefer a straightforward design.

Do I need a background check to buy a handgun?
Yes. All handgun purchases from Frontier Justice comply with federal, state, and local laws, including mandatory background checks through a licensed FFL.

What handgun caliber should I start with?
Choosing the right caliber depends on your goals, comfort level, and experience. For new shooters, .22 LR is often recommended. It’s low-recoil, affordable to practice with, and great for building confidence in fundamentals.

If you're considering a handgun for self-defense, 9mm is a widely recommended starting point. It offers manageable recoil, good stopping power, and is commonly used by law enforcement and civilians alike. Other calibers like .380 ACP, .45 ACP, and 10mm may be better suited to experienced shooters or specific needs like concealed carry or hunting.
