Hi there, I am writing a short story about a hitman in modern-day Europe. I need to equip him with a handgun (as his tactic is to shoot people from short-range, no more than say ten feet) but know nothing about handguns; would a revolver or a magazine-fed pistol be better?

The way I see it is that a pistol can be silenced, but is more prone to jamming and ejected shell casings are difficult to retrieve (evidence for police).

With a revolver it is a simpler design and the shell casings stay in the gun but it is noisy?

Thanks for all serious answers- I am actually writing a story so please no stupid comments about me planning an assassination of my own. Cheers!

PS, This question is in this category as it is the closest I could find to a shooting category.

routine?

It does with me. If I brush my teeth BEFORE I shower. I just kind of stand there after my shower and I can't quite figure out what to do next.

Brian has revealed his belief that Tracey was the right choice to go into the Halfway House.
Lying on his bed, talking to Ziggy, Liam and Gerry, he spoke of his thoughts that the raver was a strong personality who could cope with the movement. “She’s a Trojan,” he explained.
“She’s not an arrogant person,” he added. “The way she sees it, as soon as you get a big head, you’re out of here…[she says] deal with it…she’s either winner or final three.”
