(Living in New Jersey, I had to get it while the pistol permit was still valid, and it's impossible to time when the permits will come in. And, being that NJ now has the !@#%^!@$%!#ing stupid one-gun-a-month law, I won't be able to use the second permit until after Buy a Gun Day. Oh, well, it's the thought that counts.)
I fondled a Ruger LCP at a local gun shop recently but decided to sleep on it - bad choice as it was gone by the next morning. I've been regularly hitting up the shops looking for one and the next one I see will be mine.
Found an LCP at the Albuquerque Sportsmans Warehouse - they said they have ten more in stock too. Snapped it up quick.
More amazing though - they had ammo. Not some ammo, a whole slew of ammo in pretty much everything I care about (45acp, 380, 223, 9mm, 22lr). Not just crap stuff either - but lots of Remington Golden Saber, Hornady, etc. None of it was cheap, and I still cringe when spending $25 for a Winchester white box of 50 rnds 45ACP, but at least it was available. The store said they've been getting similar shipments every Friday.
To be confident and competent enough with a rifle to be able to hit anything I can see in a Jovian Thunderbolt kind of way.
To be able to defend myself with a handgun.
To perhaps harvest some tasty venison with either a rifle or a shotgun, any skin or antler is just a nice bonus, here.
And, if necessary: To Defend the Ramparts of Democracy from a Level 4 Zombie Outbreak or against the Jacobin, Rampaging, Godless, Red-Commie Hordes (or their modern equivalent.)
"You never select a shotgun as your primary anti-zombie firearm. It's great for onesy twosey, but zombies travel in hordes. The reload time is onerous, and the ammo, while effective, is heavy and bulky and short ranged."

If Ginsberg had let Scalia put the words "strict scrutiny" in Heller and Hillary said "Gun control is just not going to be a priority for my administration," Hillary would have been elected President.
