Gun cleaning supplies, gun lube and Sigs and Glocks
My favorite handguns are the ones that I like to shoot the most and it’s not always what I consider to be the toughest or most reliable. One thing people need to have a grip on with handguns is the statistics don’t lie. Handguns really do suck at stopping threats and shot placement can’t be underrated. Although I love shooting my 1911’s and reloading 45acp. I do find that the weight of a 45acp does add up and I’d much rather have more physical comfort carrying than worrying about accuracy and whether my 45acp FMJ has more stopping power than a 9mm FMJ. The Glock 21 is a great gun but to darn heavy for me to carry even if it was a duty gun.
Many, many firearm instructors will tell people that you’re better off practicing with a 9mm because it’s softer to shoot and costs less money. I remember the days of the assault weapons ban when glock factory magazines cost close to $100 a pop but now they are mostly under $25 if you get them online. For longer deployments or the times of year when I really don’t feel like cleaning my guns, I’m always carrying a Glock 26 or a Glock 19. The less gun cleaning, the less lubrication you have to worry about draining off of you, really makes you think it’s time to carry a Glock.
