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.
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..

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...
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...

There are far better choices out there. I was disappointed by the CCP as it seemed very promising. I would have liked it Walther made it in their Ulm factory and made it the size as the old S&W 99 compact.
I only own one single action, a Ruger New Vaquero and the only thing that stops me from carrying it (outside the range and family property) is the massive size and hefty weight. Otherwise, it feels great, shoots great and looks great.
I guess its different for everyone. My wife and some of my friends think I'm crazy for carrying a gun, spare mag, pocket knife and small pen light. As for the spare mag, I didn't always carry one but now I do. Not so much for the extra ammo but for malfunctions. I think to say that you shoot...
