It'll be your only gun. You need to grab one and go. Which one would it be and why?

"Grab and go." Here come the blue helmets/floodwaters/whatever.
I answered that here, a couple years back, and I think my reasoning is still sound.

IF the world's as it should be, all unicorns and rainbows, I'm set for life and my biggest handgun addressable problem is too many stray cats, err, squirrels, a Ruger .22 auto, long barrel, target sights.
IF "We're in Teh End Times!", and I have to survive a 7 year Great Tribbleation wandering through a blasted and mutating apocalyptic landscape with only what I managed to grab in my panicked flight, a Glock 19. It should last as long as I need it. I can scavenge ammo from my fallen enemies, as, surely, the Man 'o Sin's minions will favor the Euroweenie 9mm over the One True Cartridge delivered by the hand of St. JMB.

What's most interesting in the "what one gun" threads, is to observe folks' reasoning.
