-I recommend the pistol that "made" the 9MM. The Browning High Power.
Good advice here. I carried one in Vietnam 51 yrs ago, still own two, one in .40 and one in 9mm, and I'd say they define what a good grip on a pistol is all about. Either of mine will do 2-3" at 25 yds without much effort and are completely reliable. The Hi Power is one pistol that you'll never part with. YMMv Rod

Hmmmm . . . . maybe I should just get a second 365. Now there's an idea. Probably hard to find one. Guess we'll see.

Thanks to all for the thoughts and comments.

Life is good.

the 365 is a great little gun. just got to shoot one the other day. Personally I would look at the 365XL. It is a bit smaller than a G19 and has similar capacity options. Depending on how you configure your base plates, mags would be interchangeable to some degree between the 365 and xl...
