I carry a Sig P226 (40 cal) and is an excellent fire arm. I've had it in the rain, dirt, etc and have never had any type of malfunction with it. They only "downside" I can think of as far as carrying for duty is the fact that it does not have a safety of any sort, so if it is taken out of your possession it can be immediately fired by someone who could otherwise fumble momentarily with an unfamiliar safety.

But back to the original question. As much as I love my 1911's I would consider a Glock in 9mm. I think the modern HP ammunition is very reliable for stopping power plus a little more capacity and cheaper cost to shoot. Anyway my two cents.

Originally posted by Danny46 View PostDidn't know that, have never owned a Glock. I agree with that though, as far as buying you time should someone get the fire arm from you, a trigger safety is worthless. Also to note, the Sig P226 is not left hand friendly!

Danny is correct. I HATED the 226. With a passion. My last dept issued those turds (without the rails... cheapasses)... It is not made for the left handed shooter. I love the look but couldn't get past the ergos. As for revolvers, negative. Only for back up.
Dohcter, we use to issue berreta 92's about 3 years ago. Then went to the glock 31's...
I love my 35 and would love that 41 but who knows what that hits the shelf. I was just looking at other avenues and gathering ur opinions.
Randy I highly doubt my range master would allow a cz... I love those sexy guns but for some reason I don't see them going for it.
