[QUOTE="LBnM, post: 3931496, member: 817"] Of your choices.....10mm, but no Glocks for me. I've owned a couple over the years but not for very long. Can't stand the way they feel in hand or the trigger. I've spent most of my summers in the mountains for the last 50 yrs or so. Most have been in Colorado because we lived there for a number of years. Some have been in Montana, Wyoming and Idaho. I used to love to hunt elk and spent many nights in make shift bowhunting camps in several wilderness areas of Colorado. At the time you could not legally carry a handgun but I always did. I've carried revolvers and semi autos in various calibers but the favorite has always been either a 1911 (early years) or my SIG P220 (ever since.) If I didn't have my .45 cal P220 I would now probably have a P220 in 10mm. I just like the platform. I still carry it to the woods and mountains but don't do much hiking at my age. I carry Underwood 230 grain +P ball in it. When it's big bear country I have no concerns. Glacier is a favorite area. Have fun! [/QUOTE]
