Glock 30 or Lightweight Commander. I'm fine with either.

A Glock M21. End all be all. AS much as I am a very big fan of this ultra reliable, soft shooting, accurate big bore, it does not conceal nearly as easily as a G19, or single stack 1911. I did executive protection years ago for the governor, and due to the size of the issued G21, and related printing of such under a suit coat, I opted to carry my Kimber 1911, as it definitely concealed easier in an IWB rig from Sparks. Where the G21/G21SF really shines, though is not often mentioned, is as an outdoorsman's sidearm. Especially when running heavy for caliber, cast bullets. Essentially running +P to .45 Super loads. With a basic load, including one in the chamber, and a reload with a +4 extension, that is 31 rounds of hard hitting .45 caliber projectiles.

We were always pretty fond of the G21 as a duty gun for uniform wear 40 rounds of 230 grain Gold Dots are aweful comforting

With a limitation to one gun, concealment becomes a big issue in a lot of places, so a Glock 43 for me.

As much as I like the 45 and the 40 the 9mm is much better recoil wise and much easier to shoot and make multiple hits in a short time frame. With today's ammo, I'm not sure the 45 has that much over the 9mm as a defense carry round against humans. The Glock was built and designed for the 9mm and I believe the Glock is most dependable when chambered for this round. The Glock 19 hides as easy as most compacts with the right holster. For a carry pistol and easy to conceal the Glock 19 rules the roost.

Sig P 226 for winter carry, and my Glock 43 for summer carry.
Gotta have one for each season.

If I could only have 1 pistol for self defense then I would want 1 of each.

same, the 19 is #1, the 17 is my second choice. I have a 43 and a Kahr PM9, they have their place but the 19 is best for me.
I wonder what Mas Adooobie would say?

I chose the 21 because there was no criteria for a defense pistol. Winter, summer, OC.....

thought about this one for awhile. If for some obscure reason, I just HAD to pick one for SD, it would by my old series 70 Commander. ![[Linked Image]](http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt349/Knocky/2014%20Second%20Half/UrbanDuo_zps5da9bc8c.jpg)

H&K MP5K ![[Linked Image]](http://images.alphacoders.com/497/497699.jpg) Cool weapon. Down in El Salvador, 1984. ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v461/montanamarine/Embassy%20Duty%20%20El%20Salvador%201983-1985/603031_505889842767394_263506383_n_zpsbzqr2izs.jpg) The UZI with extended stock = Useful and effective weapon. MP5K = Worthless noisemaker. (but they sure are cool)
