Have you ever chosen a gun that does not "compete" with your other choices on paper? What I mean to say is, do you have guns that, on paper, appear to be the logical choice for EDC yet you choose another firearm for some other reason?
I currently find myself in this predicament.
I bought my Glock 19 for use as my EDC gun. It has been great to carry and I shoot it well. The 19 has proven to be GLOCKRELIABLE as expected and is easy to carry in most situations. It's nothing special, just your standard run-of-the-mill G19 but it's mine and I will not part with it.
Here's the conundrum; I recently purchased a Sig Sauer P225. I bought it because I have always wanted a Sig and these have been discontinued after 30+ years of production and service. I have to be honest, I didn't expect to like it this much. The gun is roughly the same size as my G19 only thinner. The grip is the most comfortable grip I have ever shot on a handgun and I actually like that I can place my thumb on the hammer while holstering. It carries almost exactly like the G19 but I really like the way it shoots and the trigger is leagues above the feel of any of my Glocks. I have actually been carrying it all week. The drawback to the P225 over my G19 is capacity. While the gun isn't that big, it is a tad large for its capacity at 8+1, especially when my G19 can hold almost double the ammo. Each morning this week I looked at each, and walked out with the Sig. Maybe it's just the "newness" of the gun.... we shall see.
Anyone find themselves making a similar choice?
