Don't mean to be a grammar Nazi but DAMN!

I would go with the Glock. In the event of a future ban on semi's you should be able to pick up a pump shotgun. (Don't let me under estimate the bullshit here)

Hope it helps,

+1 on that. You need to have a good pistol to go with your rifles. Glock is a good one to have. That way your well rounded for what might come your way......

+1 on the handgun, and lots of "high" capacity mags.
Of course I am a huge 870 fan and if you go that route, add a magtube extension

Unless you need a G27 for a CCW I would say no to that model.  Get the next size larger, a G23 or G19.  I had a G27 and it might be suitable for a CCW encounter under 10 yards, I did not find that caliber to be controllable for accurate bullet placement in that size frame.  I  also used a Pierce mag extension and that did not make much difference IMO.
I prefer the compact models over the subcompact Glocks.  YMMV

Glock.

You need a handgun.

My choice would be Glock 26 or 19.

If you don't have a handgun then your lacking on one of the most useful firearms there is if you run into trouble.

A BIG ++1. I just traded my G27 for a G23. Not any difference in concealment, when you have to end-up using mag extensions. The 23 gives you a fairly potent caliber in a concealable yet controlable package.

while not a huge Glock fan, the one in my go to bag is a Glock 19 because parts are available, it is near bulletproof and I tracked down a ton of non-drop free preban high caps for $10.  Being a NYer I have to have preban.  I hate the ergonomics, but I trust the pistol completely.
