Interesting article by Taylor. Thank you. Iguess his point really is if you spend the time to practice the skilled "operator" can overcome many of the deficiencies of his "tools". I wish I had something to add to that thread but I'm too green to open my mouth on the subject.

Unfortunately, I still need to make a decision soon and I'm not sure which tool is most worthy of my efforts.

Okay here's the answer, but you're probably not going to like it!

You should choose the one that feels right in your hand and that you can operate the best in live fire practice. Many police departments allow their officers to select from two or three duty weapons. In such cases an officer will select the weapon that "feels right." It is common for an individual to love the feel of one weapon and hate the feel of the others. I think it is largely a function of hand size but it is very common for somebody to pick up a handgun that they think they want based on looks, reputation or whatever, and discover that it just doesn't "feel right."

If these three are your choices then you've got to get your hands on all three. I think SIGs are wonderful, and that strange trigger on the Glock with its light trigger pull gives me the AD willies. But Glock users love their pieces and who am I to disagree with someone's personal preference. You just have to try em all for yourself. Sorry, that's the only way.
