When fact is they shoot 100 rounds down range on a clean gun and think its reliable, a possibly deadly assumption. Look at the guys that do this stuff for a living, or as a serious hobby and they have glock, XDs and custom (or semi-custom) 1911s.
Just my opinion. Just to remember to take everyones opinion (including mine) lightly and only really listen to those people who do tactical training for a living, or are in specialized units in the military or police... and even then u just never know.
Caliber? The one you can shoot the best. Everyone must remember that the handgun is weak by nature and i dont care if u have 45acp... if you shoot someone in the hand it isnt going to do much so hitting one of 3 vital zones is imperative.
and yes .40sw seems to be a great 'meet in the middle' round.
