/k/, I need your advice. Say, I'm in a country that allows use of sidearms for personal defense, but the law only allows using revolvers with round equal to or less than 9mm in caliber. So, what's the most modern, high-speed low drag revolver on the global market?

Well does it go by energy or bullet size? If its bullet size get a .357. You looking for a revolver for carry or home defense? Makes a huge difference

Carry. The law says "no caliber higher than 9mm". I don't think the energy matters at all in legal terms, could be some hot-loaded monstrosity for all they care. It's just the caliber that matters.

Then 357 brother, look at a snub. Id recomend a ruger sp101. Also one of the smith and wesson ultralights might be to your liking.

I have zero experience with revolvers, though. I once shot a Nagant revolver, it was unpleasant. What's .357 like compared to 9x19 in terms of recoil and power?
>>32802614
.357 has bit more recoil and a lot more power. It is the gold standard in man stopping.
I should add that the law also allows to have "non-automatic pistols", but I've yet to learn how that works.
Maybe it's as simple as getting a Glock modified to be unable to fire in semi-automatic, but I doubt it's that easy.

Talk to a gun shop owner in your country get the exacts. Just buy a revolver. I carry one every day.
My charter arms 38

>.357 from a snub
For the man who thinks, "I'm really digging the total lack of power this .38 provides, but I feel like it could use more recoil, muzzle flash, and deafening fucking noise. Also if my gun could beat itself to death, that'd be swell too"
If you're gonna go .357, get at least a 4 inch barrel.

More precisly buy .357 mag snub and load it with .38special P+.
