I've got a Glock 29, and I consider it to be the very best all purpose handgun made, in my limited experience. It's just so dang versatile. Perfect for me as a hiking/outdoors gun, as I can carry a ton of power in a small package. Recoil is not bad at all. I shoot it very well. This little 29 is one of the main reasons I just pawned off my Kimber Ultra Carry. The Kimber wasn't reliable, and I knew I could count on the glock.

Get the mag extenders and it holds like a medium frame pistol. I was expecting the little 10 to have much more recoil than it does. It is not bad at all. I actually preferred the feel of the 10 to my Kimber.

As an added bonus, you can change the gun to a .40 or a .357 sig simply by swapping out the barrel. I don't know what else you could want in a back country gun. It's ideal. It has also become my CCW.

Get your ammo from doubletap. It's great stuff.
