I'm sure others have said it but since you have the 17, get the 26.

It's not completely uncommon. There are a couple of guns that work with 3rd gen S&W mags; the model names escape me but I'm sure someone else will chime in with an answer. Wait.... The Lion hearts work with 3rd gen mags. That's all I can remember for now.

oneounceload wins the thread.

Either Gold Dot 124 +p or the equivalent HST loading. Right now I'm carrying the Federals but in standard pressure.

I have a P239 that was my EDC for many years until not too long ago. When I first purchased it, I got a great deal on nearly 1000 rounds of the Federal BP 9mm +P+ and shot all of it through the P239. I didn't notice any significant wear to the frame or internals. Over 8000 rounds or so later and...

The idea is cool and seems like it would be pretty convenient. However, I'm not very comfortable with carrying any holster that does not clip on to something. I'm sure it would be fine with something like a keltec or LCP, anything above those in weight and size, I want clips / loops and a good belt.

I've been putting off removing the mag safety from my 22/45 since I got it. I'll probably never do it as that would mean taking it apart; I've only taken it down 3 times in nearly 8000 rounds and have had a single issue.

You're list of criteria is describing the S&W M&P Shield. The M&P 9c is another great choice.. http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2012/06/ralph/gun-review-smith-wesson-mp9-shield/

I wish they would just stick it in a ziplock baggie and pass the savings on...

Taurus supposedly had Beretta's original machinery and look how that turned out.

Sig can never go wrong with the P-series. Now if they would only re-release the P-245...

I carried Kahr's for a long time and I think it's pretty safe to say the MK9 is the better made gun. Leaving the steel vs polymer issue aside, in my experience, the polymer used on Kahr's is not very durable and the magazines seem to have a fair amount of problems. I was also able to sling shot...

I no longer carry Kahr but when I did, I carried my spare mags the same way I always have with every gun, on the belt in a mag pouch.

17 rounds is pretty quick for a new taurus to crap out. I got you beat though, 4 rounds into a 6 round cylinder of a 617 before a complete lock up :neener: Hope it gets taken care of quick and correct.

Right now I'm using a no name Kydex holster I got off ebay while I wait on this from bravo... http://www.bravoconcealment.com/collections/gun-holsters/products/acer-dg2-holster
