[QUOTE="jej, post: 793539, member: 5563"] The thing about the J frame is that it is stone cold reliable. I am no expert, but the very short 1911 platforms have a bad rep for reliability. Lots of 1911 guys say that about anything shorter than a commander platform. Same for the .40 glocks, of all sizes. The 9mm are very reliable, but the .40s have a shaky track record, with several PDs having major problems. There is a very long thread on this at stoppingpower.com if you are interested in following up on it. You are no doubt right about semi-auto reloads v. revolver reloads, but if I had to carry a single semi, it would be something other than the two you picked. jej [/QUOTE]
