I still prefer the .45 ACP.

Lived in tthe country all my life and the 45 is my choice also...right after the 12 ga. The 45 is much more convenient tho. Keep one at the edge of the bed all the time...and it ain't a useless gun either(you know guys...empty?). Carry one when I go around the farm too. You never know who is in the woods!! Like the guy who was trying to set up housekeeping in the woods with a lean to. Hope y'all don't get annoyed....but he WAS a Yankee! Not a nice one either. He told me he could stay where he wanted as long as he wanted Then I guess he saw the holstered 45 I was packing.. and allowed as he could leave if I really wanted him to. Never even showed it to him either. Turned out he was some homeless (as he told the police) guy from Philadelphia
