Personally, I find a Glock 17 in .357 SIG to be about the best combo available (one lives in my nightstand), but you couldn't teach 75% of active duty personnel to shoot that cartridge well.
Agreed, but that would be the Glock 31, except in a REAL Caliber
I've got one that lives on my night stand with a Streamlight Lazer / Light Combo on it.
The mid sized version, the Glock 32 lives in the console of my F-250.
