Whereas my finer handguns are revolvers (S&Ws, Colts), my carry guns are modern semi-autos. 1911 style guns are great and have their high points, and I own a few. But they are obsolete compared to modern semi-autos for concealed-carry guns. But, remember this: The smaller the gun, the shorter the barrel. The shorter the barrel, the shorter the sight radius. The shorter the sight radius, the harder it is to shoot accurately. You have to find a happy medium between a gun small enough to conceal, and one with enough sight radius to shoot accurately. On occasion, I will carry one of my 1911 guns. But, nine times out of ten, I’m packing my Glock model 23.

I like the Glock 48 with the aftermarket 15rd mags.
