The defender is going in, I am getting distortion on the brass think the damage may happen on loading the round. I am not sending it back to colt, the shop I bought it has a top shelf gunsmith I trust him to work his magic and I don't mind paying.
The glock 43x cant be beat imo. With the shield arms extended mag, you get 15 + 1, the same capacity as a G19, in a smaller and more concealable package.
I sold my carry pistol and let my permit lapse. The only time and place I carried was from my home to work and back. I open the gates and turn on the lights. I could not possibly deploy and use my hand gun on company property or in the building without facing a lawsuit that could put the business in jeopardy. I told my wife I can take a gun shot and start a go fund me page.
In my defense if I ever do need to use a handgun my full size 1911 is easy to shoot and accurate will never fail. But I do not carry.
