    Nice pickup.

    The P220 is the only .45 I kept.
    I got a 226 later on and found all my holsters worked for it too, which is handy.

    Two rounds that will never go away & will ALWAYS have a place are the 45ACP & 30.06.
    I wish I never got rid of my G41. And I like the G21 I had for a decade very much, too.
    Nice piece PB.

    Nice gun!

    I like .45. 200 gr lead bullets with fast powder loaded to minimum is a pleasure to fire from my S&W M&P 2.0.

    I culled a lot of calibers from my collection. 45ACP was not one of them! Ironically, none of my .45ACP platforms are optic ready. Considering my ageing eyes, I’ll have to remedy that in 2023. The G21 & 1911 are the base lines in .45ACP. I’ve added M&P, Sig 220 & 8045 to the mix. Full size platforms in this cal & 10mm feel so right, IMHO!

    It's my 10 round magazine gun

    I have a Walther PPQ 45 with APEX trigger and I love it (this from a 1911 snob & addict).
    Grip is not that different in size than 9mm PPQ.
    Shoots soft.

    I do! Last year I started shooting/carrying an HK45. I bought multiple examples of the 45 & 45C.

    Good Lord. Firing this .45 after months of 9mm was a shock. Recoil isn't snappy, but it's massive.

    I had a stainless framed P220 a long time ago, it was a railed sport frame. I traded that one away, but I’ve always wanted to get another one. I shoot a lot of 45, so for me it’s not going away anytime soon.
