I have a question on ammo.
I own a 26 myself, I'm very satisfied with it too! I was thinking about ordering a box of cor-bon ammo, for when I'm carrying. I noticed 3 differnt grains, could some of you tell me what would be the best for personal protection?? Thanks in advance for your help.

A grain is simply a measurement of weight. Specifically 1 grain = 1/7000 of a pound. And my opinion is that as long as you pick a round that is 100% reliable in your handgun and shoots accurately and to POA and is a top quality hollow point bullet, then you are good to go. For some applications, a 115gr +P+ round is the way to go. For others, a 147gr standard pressure round is the way to go. Pick what you can shoot quickly and accurately and you will be good.
Oh, and the bullets I like for 9mm SD rounds are the Gold Dot, Golden Saber and Ranger T. There are other good ones, but those are the 3 that I can always get and trust.

http://www.streichers.com for gold dots. Even if it says "ships in 2-4" weeks, odds are you'll have it in your hand in a week or less. And it's 50 round boxes, not those panzy 20 round boxes

another +1 for the Gold Dots. totally reliable & if you get low they are readily available at any gunshop.
