"Power yeah, but 100-150 foot pounds advantage to the .357 Sig really isn't all that much."
Same could be said about the .45 vs. P7, it's okay to have extra power, you know. I don't remmember any handgun having enough power for lethal encounter. TX DPS has already proven the barrier penetration advantages of the .357sig over both the 9mm and .45, enough so that the US SS purchased 3000 P229's and 1.5 million rounds of winchester a year. That said my carry guns are the P7M8 and P7M10.
I understand your prejudices, but had you been following the .357sig story more closely, you would have heard mention of stock Sig's attaining accuracy over and above the .45, much closer to your M19, but in a tidy easy to carry package. This is a direct result of headspacing off the shoulder instead of case mouth.
NO, concealability IS the issue, or we would all carry 870's.
IF you define nice following as the US Marshall, US SS, TX DPS (to name a few), OK.
It's obvious you're a wheelgunner, no hard feelings.
