Okay, here's the deal; I will soon be in the market for a handgun. I've shot plenty of different models, and I own quite a few rifles. I'm not terribly interested in using my handgun for self defense, except possibly as a hiking gun. I am in the military, so I don't have a ridiculous amount of money...but who does these days?
So here's my list;
1. Good, comfy grip. 1911s feel good, so does the 5.7. Glocks do not.
2. Not too expensive to shoot.
3. Durability. And I don't mind if I could kill someone by throwing it at them, but that's not necessary.
4. Not ugly as sin. It doesn't have to be made of redwoodburl and titanium.
5. Will last me 80 or 90 years
6. At least as accurate as the p229 that I shoot at work . Obviously any gun can be more accurate than I am, but not something that is lousy off like the judge.
7. Some options for bling.
8. It doesn't have to stop a bear. I'm not dumb enough to try and kill one when I'm not hunting it. I go around.
9. Good holster and mag pouch options for the MOLLE system.
I'm not trying to buy one this month, but I do want some good options. So talk me into your favorite sidearm!
