Many years ago, when I was shooting at an indoor range, I was wearing aviator style glasses. One of the hot shells not only hit me between the eyes, it stuck in the eyeglass frame. It sizzled there! Whew!
I prefer revolvers myself. No brass flying, no brass to retrieve.
Hubby has an AR-15. It sprays brass all over the place. So, I got him a hard plastic brass catcher that clips over the ejector. Now, he just empties it out when he's done. Much more considerate of other shooters.
The few times I've gone, I think I'd prefer a rifle rather than any sort of handgun. Using a scope makes if feel like I'm actually aiming, rather than just taking a crapshoot.
I could never get a revolver for myself, though. I felt too much like an old time movie character to actually carry one anywhere, and I'd end up being irresponsible with it, which would be very very bad.
