Best Homestead Handguns

Homesteading is a lifestyle that is based on the idea of self-sufficiency.  Homesteaders aim to own land large enough to sustain a lifestyle that only relies on the people who live on the property and thus will have crops of fruits and vegetables as well as livestock to provide sustenance for the family.  Since homesteaders rely on this food to survive, it needs to be defended against predators.  Wild hogs, coyotes, woodchucks / groundhogs, gators and other animals can wreak havoc on crops and livestock, and you might need to sling some lead to keep your livelihood safe.
Below is a list of a variety of handguns, both pistols and revolvers, that we recommend to any homesteaders and anyone who is considering homesteading.
