So you are saying get the 40. I'm sure that shane doesn't want SoonerBabe having a gun thats easy to shoot.
I had a 6.8 spec custom built. It's between a 223 and a 308, essentially. Hope to kill first hog with it this weekend.
9mm all day. Ammo today makes it a wash tween those two imo limited reading. More people killed with 9mm than any caliber. If you want a Glock to carry, check out the Glock46. Limited capacity but small. I love my two G19's too.
I went with a Springfield 9mm XDS. 3” barrel, I think. I have a larger Springfield XD which I liked, so I used same series. Started off with 9mm so just stayed with that. Just one size pistol ammo just simplifies everything.
I have several handguns in the 9mm, .40, and .45 calibers. My cc of choice is my sig sauer p938 micro 9mm. Mainly because it's small so it's perfect for ccw, a majority of my wardrobe is dri-fit LSU shorts and t-shirts, I can carry it without it being noticeable. Second, it is 9mm so it has very light recoil, much easier to control if/when I need to use it in a controlled environment, you're responsible for every round that leaves your barrel. 3rd, it's a Sig... a majority of my handguns are Sig, I trust my life with them, never had an issue with them. Having said all of that about Sig, my next purchase is a Kimber Micro-9, I own several kimbers and like Sig, have executed flawlessly, and love their reliability and dependability. And their resale value is very, very high.
