    Which one should I buy?

    Here's what I'm considering:

    G31 or G32. Why? Because .357 Sig is a cool cartridge. But, I don't have any reloading components yet. No dies, brass, bullets - nothing.

    Springfield XD in .357 Sig. Why? Because I have an XD40 that I shoot fairly well, and I like it.

    G20 or G29. Why? Because it's 10mm. Better suited for hunting than .357 Sig.

    This will likely be an EDC gun, not sure if it will replace the 1911, or the XD. I think I'm leaning towards the 10mm. Mostly because I love the round, and I'm set up to reload it already, so practice ammo is available. Ballistics appear pretty close. .357 is a touch faster, but not significantly so. This will also be my first Glock. I'm still not 100% convinced because they feel odd, but I must say that the last time I fired one it didn't feel as odd as the first time.

      You really can't make up your own mind? Really? Maybe if that's the case you shouldn't own guns...

        In my opinion if you like the feel of the xd, then go with that. Have you shot a lot of Glocks? The trigger between the XD and Glocks are very different so to me that could be a deciding factor. If you like Glocks, I would go with a 20 or 29 as it would serve better for hunting also. 10mm can stop any four legged animal in North America. That being said, a .44 or .50 is much better for the grizzly bears.

          The Glock 20 makes the most sense based on your post.

                Sig 2022 and an aftermarket .357 sig barrel. Same mags, just swap the barrel. Two calibers for one pistol!

                And they're great guns.

                  You mean a Sig 2022 .40S&W correct? The 9mm wont work.

                    That's correct. Since he was discussing .357 sig (and 10mm), I guess I figured I didn't need to say it. But i probably should have. Thanks for the correction.

                      Welcome to the dark side!! Come shoot my 32, its a sweet shooter. You know I love my 20 but its a no go for ccw. Brass for 357 sig is about $45 per thousand on gunjoker. Dies off ebay $40. Montana Gold for bullets. You already got all the other calibers covered. I say Glock 32.

                        If you get a 10mm glock you can convert it to .357sig and .40 with a barrel and mags.

                        Couldn't you also convert your XD to 357sig?

                        Seems like if you aren't dead set on what you want, conversions are a lot cheaper than getting a whole gun. Unless your point in completely going over my head.

                        The actual value of above $.02 is less than $.01 after taxes.

                          Seriously? How does asking for opinions on what to buy make you question my ability to own guns?

                          Possibly, bit it would be coincidence.

                          Damn you! I knew you were going to say that. That's what I wanted to buy at first, but I'm torn on adding another caliber to the safe.

                          Conversions are a no-go for CCW in my county, otherwise I'd be tempted.

                            29 is pretty sweet too. OC Firearms has both of them in stock. Just not sure of the 2 finger grip on the 29. Never even held one.
