If you're shopping for a firearm, .22lr, 20 gauge, and 7.62x39 are the most useful and diverse ammo types imho. So look for something along those lines. If you want stopping power, buy a baseball bat.
If your aim is target practice, a .22 is what you want. The rounds are cheap (and you can carry hundreds in your pockets- if you wanted to-, it wont wreck your wrist or shoulder, they're inexpensive and allowed at just about any range (also, there is very, very little in the way of game that can't be taken down with a .22). Want to shoot a 45 for kicks, rent it from the range. I only mention this because people often dream about owning a gun they have no use for and/or don't really understand what firearm would best fit what they want to do with it. I've also noticed that people become collectors, closets full of guns, they might shoot one or two of them a year..lol.
