Seems to me that a .357 SIG or .40 would be better.

Lighter ammo, higher capacity, and heck of a punch.

Flatter shooting, too.

I agree. But (referring to above post) I'm just a pansie wussy pussy who likes his Sig P226 9mm for self defense. Series, I'd have gone for the .40 S&W years before the caliber was developed and therefore bought a Browning HiPower in 9mm. I have so many rounds of 9mm that I didn't want to introduce a new "flavor" in my inventory mix. Ergo, I bought the P226 last year in 9mm.

I like the .40 as well. I own the Ruger P94 model model.
Accurate with excellent hitting power. And a bit lighter than the .45 cal. That was a key decision.

.45 GAP ( Glock design ) is also a good choice
Same power as the ACP but more compact
