Caliber Choices......

My first choice and go to CCW is my 5" 1911 in 45 acp. with 230 gr Gold Dot. Never feel not armed enough carrying it, gives you that confident feeling as you go out the door at midnight. Few years back when all the craziness was going on with people hording toilet paper etc and just acting nutty, I took my grand daughters trick or treating. A 45 acp 1911 in a IWB holster with Gold Dots, high lumen flashlite in my jacket pocket and out the door I went. Would not have felt as secure with a lesser caliber. Would have liked to have carried my Marlin 1894 in 41 Magnum as well but would have gotten strange looks and caused a scene.
