Most Important Aspects of Selecting a Handgun for Self-Defense: Fit and Function
There is an old story about a Texas Ranger. He was attending a social event with his family, wearing his issue sidearm.

The Sabatti Urban Sniper w/Trijicon Review: Tactical Precision Italian Style
Imported to the United States exclusively by the Italian Firearms Group, the Urban Sniper sports a relatively short (for a long-range precision platform) 20-inch bull barrel.

Krytos Titanium Glock Slides – Science Fiction Incarnate for Your Combat Tupperware.
Krytos has run multiple slides past the 100,000 cycle test without issues. While not common, that is about the point you see steel slides start to crack. By that, I meant that it doesn’t happen often, but it does happen. In testing, they plugged the barrel, fired a round, and the slide survived to continue shooting.
