Ultimate Duty Sidearm

[Noob84]

Unlimited budget, any brand, any caliber, what would you carry as a sidearm? It has to go into a holster, and weigh less than 3 pounds, loaded.

I did a search and didn't find any threads where this was asked before.

I'll start: STI Tactical 5.0 in .40 S&W with TLR-2.

HK USP40

SF MR09 adapter mount

SF X300

Either an 7-8 Shot S&W wheel gun or a 1911. Had a 5" Springfield. Could hold it steady on target all day long.

Phased plasma rifle in the 40-watt range? Oh wait, you said sidearm.



Frankly, I'd be happy if I could carry one of my 226s. We carry 229s now and the grip is just a BCH too short for me.

Actually went back and read the requirements.... Sorry about that none of my choices would qualify.

what did Robocop shoot again?

Ummm let me think....

H&K USP Tactical in 9mm (don't Heckle, I like it) Frame painted Green (I like Green and have a need to be different) and slide in Nickel or stainless

and I am no light expert so I'll leave that up to you.

Glock 18 in a drop-leg tactical Safariland holster with a SureFire X300

[j706]

Wilson CQB or equivalent

If it was a choice for ME, then I would probably go with something like a Colt Rail Gun and a Surefire X300.



If it was for the department, then a Glock 21SF with Surefire X300.

I ain't real fancy with Duty guns because they just have to work. I don't have any problems with carrying Glocks or 1911's and in fact the last .45ACP SIG I shot stuck in my memory. It's just a damn fine feeling handgun.

Or get a drop leg (I think it's called breachers holster) for your Mossy 500...
