What's the lowest caliber you would go with, as a daily ccw, and still feel comfortable relying on, to stop a threat?

When I got home, I took off the .45, but the .380 is still in my pocket. Going out for Valentine's Day dinner tonight; I will be wearing a .45 (with the .380 in my pocket).
The .380 is what I carry when it is not practical to carry a "real" gun. I agree with the sentiment above: the first rule of gunfighting is have a gun. A .380 barely meets that definition, but it is better than a stern look of disapproval.

That just about completely describes what I do, calibers and all.
