Is it an option for you to spend many hours at the range with your alternative weapon, whilst retaining the 228 for service?

Excellent point BG.

I would transistion totally over to the striker fire weapon. I carried the sig .45 for two years but that whole magazine release distance made me sell it. Considering a tactical reload is an essential skill, I would like to find a larger caliber then the 9mm 115 grain JHP +P that we carry now. I am factoring out shot placement and the fundamentals, for sake of argument.
