Your choice of battle sidearm?

[fred333]

Good info.
What the hell ever possessed them to design a pistol like that? Heat dissipation?

If I ever found myself in a full on Alamo situation, my battle sidearm would look like this

I'd still wearin' a good pistol. Never leave home without it.

I love my 1911 it is truly touched by the hand of god through John M Browning.

I have given this much thought over the last year I have come to the conclusion that in my perfect world I would kit up with a trusted colt 1911 series 70 on my side and a m1a on my shoulder but this is not a perfect world........

I have come to the conclusion a Glock 17 is the right choice for me. If my honesty on this offends anyone please feel free to suck my sack.

I love a 45 and 10mm but, depending on the situation I would more then likely be the odd man out for resupplying ammo. 9mm is the most common handgun ammo on the planet. Nato, law enforcement , security contractors, majority of American gun owners have and use 9mm.
If I need ammo chances are good I can scrounge it up some where.
The Glock, Yes I am saying this, Is a strong battle tested platform, it offers 17 rounds in a standard mag. all good stuff to me.

Shun! Shun the non-believer!

I look at it as I will, in all likelihood, not be asked for ammunition by anyone else if I'm pimpin' a 10mm.

What happens if you run out of 10mm ammo? Who can you ask for a resupply?

G17. Wish i was allowed to carry mine at work over my issued G22.

I own several Sig's and an XDM but my 17 is my favorite handgun to shoot (outside of my vaquero but that's not practical).

 

[good guy 176]

CZ 52--if it hits as hard as it kicks.

Colt King Cobra--if you don't need to spray the area.

US&S 1911--for old times sake...my duty weapon.

M1A--for the longer, stronger shots.

That's what a reloading bench is for. And I have enough supplies for 10mm to last me several years. Along with another dozen calibers no one else shoots

10mm, the round for those that need to make up for other shortcomings.

In my time in the U.S. Army I carried the M1911A1 and later transitioned to the M9. Between those two I preferred the M1911A1.
Since leaving the Army I have been issued the Beretta 92FS, Glock 22 and the Smith and Wesson M&P 9. Of those weapons I preferred the Glock 22.
My current job gives me the choice to carry my own weapon or the issued SW M&P9. My Glock 21, Gen3 is what I carry. I am far more accurate with my Glock 21 than I am with any other pistol that I own (HK USP45 & SiG P220). I have recently acquired a Glock 17 Gen4, but have not yet shot a qualification course. Depending on how well I do, the Glock 17 might be the new carry weapon. . Not a fan-boy by any stretch. I carry what I shoot the best.

I must say I'm offended by the vulgarity in this post.

Hmmmmm. I was tempted to say I was offended just so I could get a taste of that sack.

 

[redeemed.man]

I would prefer a prison assault in or on my buttocks over a Subaru.

LMAO
