Which leads to something I don't recall seeing discussed here (or anywhere else). I carry a Keltec P-11 everywhere. Mine is highly reliable, with a little fluff and buff.

However, on a trip that takes me to/through danger zones (let's call it Detroit), I'll weigh down with a Model 59 S&W. I can get back down on target and put out 5 rounds with the 59 during the time I could fire 3 with the Keltec.

For the same reason, I avoid the heavier calibers, not based on bullet performance, but "back on target" time.

Anyone else figure that into their carry decisions?
