[QUOTE="OK Corgi Rancher, post: 4210654, member: 45773"] Nothing wrong with a Glock. I bought my first one almost 35 years ago. But there's nothing wrong with a nice double-stack 1911 (or 2011), either. I have a KDS9c and it's fantastic. It's as light as a Glock 17 (OK...it's .5 ounces heavier but it's also all metal so your dog can't chew it up), it's shorter than a 17 in overall length and height, it's slightly narrower (by just a hair), standard mag capacity is close (15 vs 17...but optional 18 round mags are available), and it has a trigger that a Glock will never have. It's also optic-ready and has a style that Glock can't match. The style doesn't really matter to me but it does look really good. A Glock just looks like any number of other striker-fired, plastic pistols just more squared off. A big downside to the Kimber is the mags are outrageously expensive. But they have frequent sales so it makes them a bit more affordable. They're also all steel so they won't crack and deform over time like Glock mags have been prone to do. I owned a Kimber Pro BP Ten back in the day and it was pretty cool, too. And I agree with [USER=49555]@Gadsden[/USER] ...there is no one-gun-fits-all solution for everyone. [/QUOTE]
