He said it was the worst feeling of his life knowing that was all he had. ... but a good lesson to carry a reload (or two) no matter what pistol you're carrying. I didn't invent the quote, but it's one of my favorites: No man in a gunfight wishes he had a smaller gun and fewer bullets. I love the 1911. Love it. The way it looks, feels, its history. I shoot it well. But...the 8 round capacity in the face of how effective 9mm ammo has become, has me carrying a G19 most of the time. I don't have a "magic" number as far as minimum mag capacity, but I do believe "more is better." Between two guns of the same size, when loaded up, it's hard to justify the one that weighs more but provides half the number of rounds. Wade "Let's Roll!" - Todd Beamer 9/11/01.
