Ultimate Fighting Handgun? I don't think it exists. Handguns are defensive tools, and none of us are in an action movie.
"Owning a handgun doesn't make you armed any more than owning a guitar makes you a musician."
No fair invoking Dirty Harry. There's no argument against him
There is no ultimate fighting handgun!!! You can have a good defense tool (gun)... It takes practice, practice, and more practice... Their are a lot of good pistols out there, I personally don't on a FN and don't really plan on getting one anytime soon... If you can't stop a threat with 3 rounds, maybe you should start taking some classes and learn how to shoot... I'm not trying to put you down or anything but come on, what are the chances of you getting into a huge gun fight where you're going to need 30+ rounds?
IMHO, A good 1911 will do the job... or a XD, or a glock, or a HK, or even your twin FN's...
Depends entirely on how many BG's you find yourself up against, doesnt it? Would you rather have as much as you can load, or come up short and find yourself facing one determined meth-head, and/or 6 of his buddies still coming at you and saying to yourself "damn, wish I'd brought a Hi-Cap instead.."
Granted, if he were choosing a 9mm or .40, he'd need every round he could fit into every pocket he had available, but..even with .45 better to have plenty than to have too few.
Granted the majority of scenarios are one-vs.-one, but.. Mr Murphy likes to jump in on such things whenever possible. Usually when it's you or me in the mix..
Or just carry a model 29, you can beat someone down with it when you run out of bullets.
