I talked to a cop today about the 1908 and his father back in the days had one for a back up and used it once on a large guy and it put him down quick but didn't kill him but he was going no where...interesting....
In terms of personal protection -- remember, nobody wants to be shot by anything. I am always surprised by how accurate these little Colts are. They really are a hoot to shoot. Enjoy your Colt.
After looking at your target, I can only echo the same thing as Colt75 - these are terrific little guns, mmore accurate than you'd think and fun to shoot.
