[QUOTE="p dog shooter, post: 129668, member: 48"] First of all a real accurate sefdefense pistol is a mute point. 99 %of time a SD shooting is going to be fast and up close. Any pistol that can do under 4 inchs at 25yards is way more up to the job. Very accurate pistols are nice I wish all mine could do under a inch at 25 yards. It is way more important that they go bang evey time you pull the trigger. I heard the statement a pistol is only used to fight your way back to your long gun. Thats ok if you have long gun that is close by. Most of the time it is the pistol that well save you beacuse it is with you when you need it. Most SD shooting well be long over in the time it takes to get to your long gun. Most of the time your long gun is going to be a longways off unless you are in the miltary or LE. If even in LE unless you have prior warning that you are getting into a confrontation IE Robbery call ect. Your long gun is going to be in the cruiser. 99% of the time you are going to start and finsh the fight with your sidearm in a very short time at very short ranges. That 20 to ever what feet to your cruiser is going to be along distance if someone is trying to kill you. Use your long gun if you have it and can get to it with out putting your self in danger. That said I have carried very thing for double action revolvers on the job to single and double action auto's. Right now I carry a glock 22 when working and a 23 when not most of the with lots of others thrown in as the need as I see comes and goes. My main woods gun ( thats when Iam spending most of the time in the woods) is a TI 41 mag. yes it goes to town with me if I stop in. My main town gun is a glock 23 but I do carry many other as I need them. If Iam out hunting rabbits ect with my 22 auto and need to stop and get gas ect. If the crap would hit the fan at that time I guess 10 or so rounds of 22 lr hollow points would have to do the job. Having a fire arm that works with you is way more important then not having the perfect one with you. [/QUOTE]
