best semi-auto

[gun-collector]

What is the best semi-auto for a "gun fight " ?
A gun fight where is using a rifle is not an option.
The pistol must be reliable with fast trigger and high capacity mags.
must be .40, .45 or 10mm
price limit $5000
Thanks

For concealed carry?
For open carry?
For a drawer gun?

Why MUST it be 40, 45, or 10mm?

In general, I'd suggest a S&W M&P 40 w/ good night sights... for $500... not $5000! I assume you mean $500.

But there's LOTS of options.

Are you planning on attending a gun fight?

Pick a caliber that can get the job done and a pistol that you can shoot accurately which has earned your confidence. We aren't going to get into a brand/model comparison here. There is plenty of information on the boards about which pistol(s) are most likely to be found in the holsters of those who take such things seriously here.
