If it ends up in evidence then it probably saved your life so the possibility that you might lose $850 wouldn't probably be much of a concern. I do agree with you that I don't like expensive all metal guns for CCW because they are heavy to carry, don't typically carry many rounds and they are going to get beat up in an every day carry situation. |

That's about word for word what my CCW class instructor said to us. Makes a certain amount of sense on an intellectual level, and I do have a G17 or G26 I can carry, but I prefer carrying a Sig. I've got a bunch of them so if I lose it, I lose it. |

| Its why I usually buy a 2nd one. If I need to use it in a life or death situation, I use it. Whats your life worth? If its less than $1400, then buy the clunker and carry it. If its worth more than that to you, buy the very best gun you can afford. If ammo is too expensive to practice, then just die instead of burning it up. Doesn't make sense, does it?

That's pretty interesting looking. I can't imagine carrying it instead of something with higher capacity. rambo
