It sure is! I love the Springfield myself.

so why isn't the .45 as popular as the .40cal for home protection?

The downside is.
1. Clip capasity, wich isnt that huge of a issue. Its just a nice thing to have.
2. recoil. I know the recoil from a .45acp isnt that bad. But W.T.S.H.T.F. having a quick, and accurate second shot is an issue.
The upside

Enough said!
The more I talk to L.E.O.s, combat soldiers who have been in shootouts. The more I belive the best weppon is your focus, and drive to do what needs to be done. Everything else is just acidemic and theoretical.
