Did a Rip Van Winkle...

Sounds like a good choice. I like the the compact rugers. Easy to make them disappear!

Ive had a couple of the guns you are looking at. I really liked the glock 36. It was the most comfortable 45 i have ever carried. I also had a lcp, but after i got one of those sig p238s, i had to get rid of it because it never saw the light of day again.

Not a big fan of the price you pay for that 357 sig ammo. That stuff is $24 a box around here at walmart... Makes 45 acp look cheap!

At the moment I'm leaning toward the getting one of the smaller 1911s and then a full sized one but you never can tell what I'll feel like when the money becomes available.

I owned a Glock 36 and lots of other Glocks. An industry insider at Glock shared my opinion..This one has several disadvantages that are unique. Glock offers no extended magazines and the after market items are less than 100% reliable. You can not obtain factory extended springs to obtain 100% reliability with extended round magazine extensions. This is the most finicky of all Glock models.

The Glock 19 is much better choice when all options are considered..If you must have a .45 then go with a 30SF.
