Ever since Glocks hit the scene and with all the shooting in the media, we're in the age where everyone forseees themselves having to shoot it out with a pack of armed gangsters, terrorist, or armed to the teeth mass shooters... Gun owners are also spending millions and giving up long time EDC's just to gain an extra round or two in a magazine. Just signs of the time.
I still carry my steel 6-7 round Kahrs and 5 round snubbies. Dispite all the warnings of imminent demise, I'm still alive and kicking.
