Got some comments back on another post site and they were pretty well divided down the middle. Considering three pistols for carry. Have contacted my CFO and the price of up to about $1,000 was okay. I did not select the slim G-36 because of just 6 shots, but otherwise was fine as well. If I can't hit anything with 7-10 shots and maybe an extra clip, maybe I need a Thompson instead.
1. SIG P220 Equinox
2. Glock G-30
3. Kimber Pro Carry II stainless
I have a stainless Beretta FS-92, but it is a bit long and with 15 in the mag, my sense was to get about a 4 inch barrel .45 cal. The full size 1911 is nice, but not for me to carry regularly. I strongly prefer stainless, living in Georgia and frequently going to Florida. My .38s are both stainless, the .357 is stainless (686), the Berettas, the 1911, and so on. I am large, okay very large, 6'5, 280+ pounds and XXL glove size, you know, between Neanderthal and great ape hands. What are some of your good experiences and bad with these particular firearms? Reliability, reasonable accuracy to at least 50 feet or so paramount. For example, I have had exactly zero misfeeds in the Beretta to date, after thousands of rounds and routine cleaning, but it is unsuitable for regular carry for me. Thanks for the input.
