.......I bought another High Power because I feel the same way! The second one is a FEG, but it seems to be of reasonably nice quality. I'm thinking shoulder holster, but I do have a pretty decent collection of Simply Rugged pancakes to use, along with a very good, South African copy of an Askins Avenger.

Since you are a single action auto type of fellow, you might consider the Sig-Sauer 938 or the Springfield Armory EMP. Both are 1911 derivatives and in the case of the 938, lighter than all the sub-compact plastic fantastic 9emems on the market. I dearly want an EMP, but I will wait until I see a used one at a bargain price. The 938 comes up used frequently at reasonable prices.

Otony.

but this year it isn't a revolver in which I carry hunting loads but my Garthwaite CCO (thanks to Rob Leahy).

Nothing wrong with your choice.

You are only one of many having these same feelings. (re: “With all the crap going on these days”)

The term “upgrading to an autoloader” grates on an old man but certainly has a ring of truth to it.

I don’t especially care for plastic, striker fired handguns but, giving credit where credit is due, some of them are hard to beat for reliability.

A revolver man has to totally retrain to use any of them, but it can be done.

I have bad news. In time, this feeling will worsen. You will eventually carry two.

I have a son (LEO, big town, bad areas) who indicates many of them carry three on their person.

They carry the big stuff in the ceiling or trunk of the vehicle.

May the force be with you.

And you have me thinking about my .40 Witness (CZ75 clone) with the faux ivory "Don't Tread on Me" grips...

My EDC is an XD9C with an extra 16 rd mag. I tried carrying my PD 45 ACP but I was not sufficiently accurate with it in combat drills. The XD9C is much, much better and with Hornady CD ammo, should do the job, and I have a lot more ammo available. I was surprised that I took to the XD platform so quickly since I have been shooting 1911's for 50+ year, but so be it. Also now have XDM 5.25 in 9 and 45 ACP, both of which I have also carried. For me and mine...what ever works the best is my choice. Oh, I'm still keeping my 1911's.

had me with the Hi-Power. I caught it when you said Serpa CQB... the only holster to be banned by multiple LE Agencies and the Marine Corps...So How old? I still have an oldused Uncle Mike
s around here. Or Seriously,. Gordo, I have a slightly used Milt Sparks from my collection I will send you.
