The 9mm is a good cartridge, and I'd certainly rely on it, but I'm another sucker for a good .45.

I love my Glock, but I've long had an itch to get a nice semi-custom 1911. After looking around I've set my sights on one of the following two pistols (or, like akbound said, maybe someday both!)...

Kimber Eclipse Target II


And if Iowa ever passes a CCW law, the Kimber Eclipse Ultra II


Not only are both pistols tricked out with great features, but they also look so good that they'd make the wife jealous!
