#3 I almost bought one a couple of months ago. The old 9mm ball put nice clean holes through its targets. The ARX round looks to completely change that shortcoming.

Reliable old standby. Nothing fancy, Pachmayr's, a bit on the heavy side the way I like'em. Still in service with the Canadian Defense Forces I believe.

#7 Recently looked at a back up/off-duty roscoe. Initially chose the G26. Upon further review, I went with what I know - the Sig 239 in 9 as I carry a 228. Pricey yes but in this realm I'm not skimping. Plus I didn't want to do the mental gymnastics of switching guns. 3 x mags w/night sights is $900 ++. Problem is getting one in Kalifornia post - San Berdoo. Backordered until who know when.

Now to SEAL question. Frankly I'm surprised by the decision. Thought they would have stayed with the Sig.
