The site should be fixed. We show secure now, we should have a favicon and the picture aspect should be better.

I like the original specialist with the threaded barrel and rail.

But....
Every day carry and use. Vbob hands down

Well I can understand the Vbob for everyday carry but I wont be doing that with mine. Although in protest of Colorados latest gun laws Ive thought about a 45 on the hip in open carry around town.

These are my carrying DW's. Not of very good picture though. Starting at the top, Vigil CCO 9mm, CCO .45, Guardian .45 and C-Bob .45. I carry the CCO's most often and shoot the C-Bob the best.

I have a close friend who had a Guardian and I got a chance to shoot it. It was a good shooting gun and I really liked it. So did he. Then he let someone talk him out of it. He hasnt ever said so but I think he wishes he still had it.
