For CC, don't be too quick to go with a 380.  There are loads of options in 9mm that carry/conceal very well, and the stopping power is far superior.   

The important thing to remember is different guns for different applications.  For home defense, concealment isn't a factor, so there's no need to go with a sub-compact.  Get a mid to full-size piece that's easy to hit the target with.

Thanks for the advice. I love the look of the revolver. I kind of have an eye or prefer the retro looking guns or styles. Snub nose, mid and long barrel. Pretty cool options.

I grew up watching action movies and spaghetti western's and western's in general with my old man.

The Dirty Harry gun is sweet looking. Agreed on the 1911 though. I feel like I am hell bent on owning one of those. It'll be awhile before I get comfortable with CC.

With CC though I would prefer a 9mm for sure. Maybe need to get into a habit of having a belt, holster and shirt to cover it up on me if possible.

That's something ill give my friend credit for. He preaches practicing and resetting your shots from your holster just for that reason if you're out and it's a crazy situation unfolding.
