A mid range .45(around $800) would serve anyone in a first world country far better than a Glock. I would also take CZ over a Glock any day, and have $100+ to blow on ammo.

PS: That Judge/Governor is too big for anything but a backpack and I can't even imagine how crappy it would feel to actually shoot if the only engagement range I was concerned with was less than 10 yards.
Yeah.... because you wouldn't ever want a carry gun to be 100% reliable, right?

In the end its a never ending debate on which gun is "best". Get whatever you can hit your target with, reliably. Whatever you choose to carry, be proficient with it. I chose my glock because: I am accurate with it, I like the way it fits my hand, its reliable (never had a misfire / FTE in 2,000+ rounds), I can conceal it, its easy to maintain, and I like its capacity.
