i knew the fact of military service would come up, and that's a valid point. i guess for me less weight and more rounds are more important. i can see the spare mag point as well, but i don't find it hard to carry a spare g19 mag or similar size mag even in wrangler jeans. i've noticed a trend in crime of today vs yester-years that the number of assailants is more like 4-6 where as it used to be 1 maybe 2 or 3 being more rare. i want the most rounds i can stuff into a concealable handgun that i am able to be consistent with. prepare for the worst and pray for the best!

i still for the life of me can't figure out why people insist on carrying a 1911 for self defense period....it must be for the reminiscent feeling of the glory days or something. they're big, heavy, and have limited mag capacity. why would you want a gun that weighs 40 oz empty with 9 rounds when you could get a glock 30s that weighs half of that and get two more rounds? heck i've carried my glock 21 with 13+1 rounds of 45 acp and it still weighs less than a 1911.
