Hm, that's odd, Pops carried a Smith and Wesson Model 15 for awhile, even after the M-9 was "standard issue."

In his part time gig, he carries a Model 66. And he used an M-1911A1 pretty effectively in his younger days. Or else I wouldn't be here.

I don't know if this falls under empirical or anectedotal, but the one Deputy from my hometown who was invovled in a gunfight and still carries a badge carries a Smith and Wesson Model 13, the same one he was issued in 1993 and the same one he used in said gunfight.
