I can see where it could get heavy it you carried daily or needed “real” concealment. I sometimes grab the 30 and just drop it in my jeans pocket (I don’t chamber a round) when I go to the farm or ride my motorcycle. It has come in handy a time or two.

I like the Clipdraw too. Make sure you use a pop out safety.

The SEALs “use” the HK Mk23, which was nominally an “offensive handgun”. After all the bidding and selection was done (HK vs Colt), the resulting handgun was so huge that they didn’t really want it as a standard sidearm.

The primary sidearm was, and continues to be, the SIG P226 in 9mm.

Glocks are nice but I really enjoy this one:

It is well built, has a smooth trigger,and a real safety.

The handgun needs no introduction! ;)

“Get 9mm conversion barrel for each and you have the best of both worlds. 9mm for cheaper shooting and .40 for more stopping power self defense.”

I had no idea that was possible.

Nosler Sporting Handgun Bullets 45 Caliber (451 Diameter) 185 Grain Jacketed Hollow Point.

The most accurate & economical .45 bullet that I've found.

The ammo caught my eye too. Shot a few into a pig carcass on a friend’s farm. (Penetration testing can be fun) Went right out and bought a couple of boxes. I love the old Colt Commander (alloy frame). I sent a letter to Colt w/serial number, they said mine was built in 1953. Saw it in a shop back in 1972, had to have it.

What does a commander go for now? Can even find one for sale?

Haven’t seen an old model in quite a while. The new ones are kinda pricey. Maybe $900 retail, from what I’ve seen at the gun shows.

Of course, along with the conversion barrel you will need to get 9mm mags also.

It gets better - buy a .357 SIG barrel (.357 SIG = .38 bullet in a necked-down .40 case) and get a third gun, flatter shooting with higher muzzle velocity (but less down-range energy). With the .357 SIG, you can use any of your glock .40 magazines. If you get the 9mm barrel, you will need to use 9mm magazines. Still, pretty cheap way to get three guns in one!

Is that a steel frame commander or a LW one?

During the great ammo shortage last year I couldnt find much of any handgun ammo other than some 38 special and 9mm, so I decided to stay with the nine.

Load the Glock 19 or 26 with Golden Saber or Corbon Powr Ball ammo and you have guns that are just as peppy as a 357 magnum with ammo a lot easier to find.
