The list of my guns that I would bet my life on ...

First, I don't use a gun for self defense that I have not run a minimum of 500 rounds through and for autos, it's the minimum 500 rounds with at least five different magazines.  With this, I like to have at least two shooting sessions with it to hit the 500 round milestone. 

Current guns …
SIG P220 / 45ACP
Browning High Power / 9mm – Tuned by Austin Behlert
SW 625 “Model of 1988” / 5” 45ACP – Tuned by Andy Cannon
SW 629 / 4” 44 Mag (but w/44SP for self defense) – Tuned and ported by Mag-Na-Port

Current guns “retired” to the safe …
Browning BDA / 45ACP
Colt Commander / 45ACP – Tuned by Austin Behlert
Colt Detective Special / 38SP

On my list to get …
SIG P239
S&W 340 M&P

I'll Gladly (And DO.....) trust my life to.....
GLOCK's
Taurus Revolvers
my Rock Island 1911
Kimber
Ruger P90 (Actually I'd be happy to trust any Ruger.).

Everything I've heard about SIGs, I'd likely have no problem staking my life on one.

Wilson Combat would be on the list, IF I could afford one.
My EAA Big Bore Bounty hunter .45 Colt has been used as a standby Home Defense pistol on occasion. (Hey, it worked for Wyatt Earp and countless others....)

1) glock (its my duty pistol)
2) sr9 (even though recalled it still goes bang everytime)
3) taurus 24/7 (very durable)
4) taurus wheel gun (goes bang just fine and sends the bullet flying)
5) Rossi .357 (wouldnt carry it constantly, but in an emergency i know it will go bang)
