Suggestions for my first pistol?

makarov 9 mm like that last guy said OR a .357 magnum with hollow point bullets if u really wanna send the message. but if you are in the city both those guns missing the target could have...unwantend conseqeunces...might I suggest a .410 snake charmer shotgun for that. won't kill your neighbor's kid if it misses. but will rip someone's face to shreds coming through your door. warning though - kicks like a *****. so be a man.
