I think it depends on the application for the pistol. And on when the particular pistol was popular. First pistol....G17...no secret to be a favorite of mine, an EDC pistol for years for me. Times like now, possible civil unrest across the country regarding Ferguson, the G17 is on my hip. With modern ammunition it is the best SD pistol there is. Second gun....1911...my other EDC pistol. We all know what a well tuned 1911 is to shoot, and shoot accurately with great follow ups.

However. In recent months certain Law Enforcement Agencies have announced a return to 9mm for their duty weapons. This has already caused a shortage of the best performing SD 9mm ammo.

With G17's going thirsty for quality SD ammo, and 1911's holding 8 + 1, I see alot of people switching to Glock 30's, 30sf's, 30s, 21 and 21sf. All .45 caliber, each holding minimum 10 +1.

JMHO
