That's the standard subcompact.

If it stays around the house, then get the golck 21c in .45 or 22c in .40. The full size guns handle the recoil much better, especially the compensated ones. (I shoot a 22c and there is hardly any muzzle flip)

At 10 feet, you really don't need a .45. The ballistics are nearly identical between .40 and .45, especially in close. (But you could argue this all day long just like mustang vs camaro)

The full size guns will mount a light very easily too. Like a M6 light/laser combo, or a TLR or Surefire or whatever brand you want. The mounted light is real handy so you don't have to shoot with one hand and hold flashlight in the other

Thanks for the input. I'm still researching and learning some of this stuff as I go so it's nice to get advice from someone who knows what they're talking about. This light/laser looks nice.

Spring rolls sound great, I haven't had sushi in a while. Might have to do that tonight. Did you like Iron Man?

Yep, saw it opening night. I want a count of how many rounds were fired in the climactic final battle scene. So many. Love that gattling gun on War Machine, too.

A lot of people have been saying it isn't that great and doesn't stack up to the original. I don't expect it to be as good as the first one but is it worth seeing?

Definitely. Don't get me wrong, it's just a summer popcorn movie, not Casablanca, but it is visually awesome and it stays true to the comics. Worth seeing on the big screen.
