    Seriously? That's why your opinion means nothing.

    That's not what he wants to carry.

    Honestly you can't go wrong with any of the modern polymer framed pistols except maybe the S&W Sigma.

Storm came in and about 20 mins later each of them had this rust colored spot on their shirts where their pistols were rubbing on their white shirts. Screw that noise.

    Oh and by "issued" I mean the department buys you a SIG and then you pay them back over time. He tells me they don't allow them to carry anything else.

    I like my Glock 22 (Gen3)
    I like my Springfield XD 4"
    I liked my Taurus 1911
    I liked my Glock 23
    I liked my Taurus PT92

    I love my EAA Witness. Actually...both of them

    Best part, I have only paid $300 for each of my EAA's, they are inexpensive but really good handguns.

    If you ever want to try out the compact or the full size, I will bring them if there is ever a range GTG.

    I like my 21SF, i had an M&P 9c previous, liked it too, gave it to my grampa because he liked it and had a jamomatic 380 at the time.

    Your original post. "Every single gun."

    I like my Glocks, I shoot cast reloads in them. I've got aftermarket barrels for them because (I've read) the factory barrels are looser to improve reliability, and shooting full pressure .40 S&W, 10mm, and .45 Super in a loose barrel isn't the best for case life, and I'm cheap. They're good guns - not the best, not junk. Get one if it's comfortable and you like it.

    I like my FNP 9MM over my XD, but not by much.

    If you have a $700 budget get an XDm. Just picked up an XDm 9mm tactical myself. Absolutely amazing at the range.

    Supposed to be I've never had an issue but I usually scrubbed my barrel out after a match or two or three.

    I could see there being issues if you fired ass tons of lead though the barrel then went to shooting jacketed.

    I'll agree with that, although I have a couple friends that swear by theirs...I've shot them...I'll keep my XD, even at the additional price
