I would go with a longslide 9mm with a compensator.  That's what some of the guys around here use.

After some folks get shot with it I will make my judgement. There have been a lot of incidents of people being shot with a .44Mag and surviving.

Untill then I will stand by my opinion.

And who the hell wants to carry that beast on there hip 24/7 any ways.

For all around shooting....9mm
For CCW, .40S&W or .45ACP

I carry a G22 and am pretty happy with it.
I plan to scoop up a G19 in the very near future as well.

The guy that wins the Glock official matches around here always does it with a G30 in .45ACP - I have heard from many owners that this seems to be the most accurate caliber Glock for whatever reason.

I own two GLOCK 10mm's, but I'll be adopting a 357 SIG model soon.

I'd say 9mm as th larger glocks are less -ahem- reliable.

it should be noted that 9mm is the only model of glock that has not statistically KBd

I'd say if you don't have a specific purpose in mind stick with 9mm.  You can go to a .40 with an upper swap, and ammo is dirt cheap compared with the others.  Also, that grip size fits more people than the 10mm/45 frame - not to say that I don't think those guns rock.

I will go out on a limb here & say "Fo-tay".

For Practical pistol you have more options - you can shoot USPSA Limited, Limited 10, or Production. While you can use a 9 in Limited & Lim10, it won't be scored major.

The model 35 is more versatile & competetive than the shorter guns.

For some reason my models 22 & 35 haven't blown up yet (I've owned the model 22 for 14 years now) in spite of the hive mind opinion. Don't worry about it.
