sig parts are expensive extra mags are too, nothing wrong with a 1911, its been a proven weapon for a 100 years! springfield is a good choice, xd xdm or 1911. I personally like gock, but the xdm has a better barrel and trigger but weighs a little more.

The XD is a nice machine!! Smooth, but if your a limp wrist, it will jam on you. You want a nice gun that is super smooth and very very proven? Beretta 92

Why would you put your handgun in a dishwasher? That's not the way they should be cleaned.... Just sayin.

The 9mm is for people who squat to pee, 45 ACP , you only have to hit them once.

1911s have a great trigger but get heavy in your waistband all day long, not to mention a 7 round mag

If you need more than 8 rounds your in a bind anyway. You would need a ak47. Lol. Seriously the 45 acp will drop a man cold in his track.

I like the .45 acp, when you pull the trigger & I can see daylight through the hole, makes me all giddy inside

The officer shot the individual four times in the chest; then, his weapon malfunctioned. The offender continued to walk toward the officer. After the officer cleared his weapon, he fired again and struck the subject in the chest. Only then did the offender drop the knife. This individual was hit five times with 230-grain, .45-caliber hollow-point ammunition and never fell to the ground. The offender later stated, “The wounds felt like bee stings."

The officer must not have been a very good shot. Shot a man 5 times with a 45 and the guy was still alive. Put one in his dome and it's all over.
