I'm giving my glock to my brother as a gift once I have a trigger job and night sights done this month, and given that leaves me with no semi-auto, I'm thinking of what I might pick up in its place.
I'm a fan of .45ACP, and not to much of 9mm. The gun will mostly be for the range, but might see some carry time (my 41 magnum is otherwise what I use for defense) so I was considering the HP chambered for .40 S&W.
What are the possible drawbacks of this? Will reliability suffer since the gun was designed for 9mm? How is the trigger pull on the gun - can it compare to a nice Kimber 1911? Or be worked on to improve it?
I guess I'm looking for something more exotic - my 41 magnum was exactly driven by that desire, and my model 29 .44 mag was similar (model 29 over a 629) and I'm looking for something that'll be fun at the range and a good carry gun (for example, if I go hiking and want a gun with me.)
Thoughts? Other suggestions?
Thanks!
