Really? I’ve never fired one, but seems like it would be a fun gun to shoot. I’d definitely prefer a larger caliber in a combat situation if not allowed to use decent hollow point ammo though.

I really love my Glock 21. It's simple and it never fails to function, it's accurate, recoil is pleasant, and it holds 13 rounds of .45 ACP.

I really like my M9.

None of the drawbacks listed in the article bothers me, and I like the safety.

I love my M92FS and it is suppressed with an SWR Trident 9 designed for the H&K MP5. Awesome combo. But I can see how the safety setup could be a drag in combat. I think the US Armed forces should issue the H&K45. The weak 9mm is just not the right medicine for frequent house to house confrontations. Such is the face of terrorism.

Doesn't fit the hands of most of the female troops, either, which was supposed to be one of its big advantage features over the old M1911A1 .45.

My fiancee was considering getting herseld a M92 civilian version after she left the USAF, and then she tried my old East German PM Makarov.

Now I'm looking for a new Makarov.
