I finally settled on 1911s (carry size) for my daily since I shoot / hit better, carry a spare mag and haven't feared being short on rounds. Single stack helps with my lazy conceal & the weight doesn't bother me

I have gone with the Shield in 9MM for my EDC as I like the capacity of 8+1 and I purchased an additional 8 rd magazine. The IWB holster holds the spare mag and I have not had any issues with CCW. I can ride in the car and not be uncomfortable. I keep the 7 rd mag in the console. I figure if I am in a SD situation I would be at my car anyway. The training that I have done centers around shot placement and tactical mag changes. I have not heard of any situation either in which someone ran out of ammo, unless they were firing warning shots! LOL

Yeah, I've never heard of anyone in a self defense situation running out of ammo.
