Ok, first I must admit that I change guns and outdoor equipment like women change shoes lol

I'm not really "unhappy" with my 44 mag but I'm not "content". I just feel that it would be a lot more fun having a semi auto. for me, handgun hunting is fun because is all about getting close (a lot like bow hunting) and I have decided that I do not want to use a scope or red dot and don't really care to shoot past 50 yards. I seriously doubt that I will ever be hunting elk and whitetail is about as big as I might ever hunt.

I don't have the budget right now to add to my collection, so if I want to make a move I have to either sell or trade.

thinking of either getting a 45 acp or a 10mm, I know the 10mm will have the edge for hunting but from another thread it seems the 45 acp is up for the task also. Bottom line is I want a fun semi auto dual purpose gun, iron sights. thinking either a standard glock or 1911.

Opinions or suggestions?
