Well geez, guess that falls into the personal preference and situation doesn’t it. My PPK is what I call my 12 mile gun. Village is pop. 395, closest big town (12 miles away) pop. 4300. It carries and conceals very well even under a t-shirt. Very little crime in either except for a stray skunk. Damn gotta carry 20 rounds to possibly kill a skunk while mowing the lawn or going 3 blocks to the gas station. 😳
Now if I go anywhere farther than 12 miles I carry a 1911 45acp especially if going to the bigger city of GI (50,000) or Lincoln (200,000) or Omaha (300,000+). I might slum a G26 but I don’t like the sucker that much, barely a step up from 380 and definitely lacking compared to 45acp. In fact I like the wife’s PX4 storm 10 times better than the glock.
