Re: Standard Issue - Pistols?

WR Standard pistols, some thoughts:
     
WR One size fits all:
     
        either a M1911A1 (.45), or
        Glock 17 (9mm)
        (use the Browning HP-35 if your game predates the glock)
     
     
WR Different strokes for different folks.
     
        Smith & Wesson M-65 (.357) for minimally trained people and "oh
        shit!" purposes.
        Glock 17 or HP-35 for general issue.
        M1911 for MARS types, because its the best fighting handgun (Ask COL
        Cooper!)                                           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

     [I still think this is an oxymoron. Accuracy and reliability are my two 
     most important features for a handgun. One 9mm or .40 S&W in the face will 
     definitely stop your target. I also prefer double action, so all I have to 
     do is draw the weapon and shoot.]


Desert Eagle in .50AE for drooling slope-foreheaded killers (DFSK or droolers) 
who really have to have big things hanging from their belts 'cause they were so 
shortchanged in another department!   :)
