I went with the glock 23 and other for the glock 27. You would have the same manual of arms, and could share the mags of the 23.
This is EXACTLY what I would do. In my opinion, with two autoloaders, it would be hard to beat this setup.

I did indeed ask for an opinion, I also asked for a brief explanation of that opinion. His post seemed more smart-ass than helpful.I agree with Big Bill. "None of the above." His answer didn't sound like an "indifference towards life." Sounded more like an opinion and that's what you asked for. Because I don't agree with your choices doesn't mean I'm indifferent towards life. It just means that I carry a Kimber UCC II or a S&W M19 or a M43 Firestar or a Colt 1911.
A 1911 is the worst CCW you could carry. The reason for that conclusion by me is that it takes two actions to fire the pistol. 1.Take off the safety then 2.Pull the trigger. I much prefer a pistol that only requires one natural action.....PULL the trigger.

Well we concluded one thing real quick in the service. The 1911 was designed for right handed shooters only. When the south paws went on century they had to leave their pistols on half cock or hammer down on a hot round. I don't think I have to tell you what that created.I'm going to have to disagree. If you are as proficient with your carry gun as one ought to be then swiping the safety as the gun is presented IS NATURAL.
The debate of an external safety has gone on many times and there is no need for a full rehash here. There are arguments on both sides. It certainly is not a disqualifying feature for a carry gun and it alone is definitely not enough to make the 1911 the worst choice for a carry gun as there are many other pistols that also have external safeties and but other attributes that make them far less ideal.
Oh and the military's considerations for a sidearm are FAR different than my considerations for a CCW gun
