How big are your hands?
>>
>>30088619
how much do you want to spend?
do you want a 1911? or a gun you should really buy in 9mm but want the .45 version because of memes, like a CZ 97 or PX4?
>>
>>30088656
One of the only guns you should buy in the .45 version is the USP 45.

Glock 17 and Sig 2022 felt perfect in my hand

I really don't want a 1911. I want a .45 acp just for the bigger round

Buy an FNX-45. If 15+1 rounds of .45 ACP don't do the job, you should've brought a long gun.

Don't buy the $1200 'tactical' version though, the regular version is half the price and virtually the same gun except with fewer options for accessories, which you don't need because you're packing 16 fucking rounds of .45 ACP.

Then get those. Any double stack 45 will be larger and any single stack 45 will be smaller.
> I want a .45 acp just for the bigger round
Studies show that there is such a slim margin between effectiveness of modern service calibers that you dont need to sperg over 9/40/45/357sig. Just get what fits in your hand, a 9mm JHP will kill you just as dead as a 45 JHP

USP
load it with 45 super and put pussies like >>30088707 in their place

get a Ruger Vaquero. American made, will teach you how to shoot, more accurate than anything else in the thread, will last longer than anything else in the thread, will help you conserve ammo.

These men are correct. If it shoots .45 acp, it's better be either a 1911 or a USP. The FNX is an acceptable candidate as well. However, you know what you must get for the best in briefcase defense

These or Walther PPQ, any of the three are damn good guns. PPQ might be the most affordable of the three but it has good ergos and trigger.
