[QUOTE="druryj, post: 1705864, member: 10465"] Can't go wrong with the Glock 19 IMHO...I don't get hung up on caliber for a handgun so much; 9mm, 40, 45...whatever ya like. I like the G19 cause of simplicity and reliability and 9mm is so much cheaper; plus I am a damn good shot so it doesn't matter much whether I shoot the BG with a 9, 40 or 45. I still have and like my Glock 36 though for those days I think I might need a big-bore. Like when out at the farm and wild piggies are mayhaps around? I also am a humongous fan of the Kahr line of pistols..my PM9 is almost always with me. But; all that aside, I'd stay with established brands, Glock, Sig, Kahr, XD, M&P...you get my drift. I also have an awesome CZ 75 compact in two-tone I sometimes roll with, and of course, there's always a J-Frame revolver for when I want to feel all "old school". Try some different handguns out and see what fits and whatcha like...but, and this is just my opinion, I wouldn't have a Taurus for a defensive sidearm if you gave it to me. Go with the top-tier models and stay safe. [/QUOTE]
