Got a P38, too. Again, it's a fun gun to play around with. Neat thing is how it ejects to the left. As far as pistols go, M1911 is still better.
As far as handguns go, though, NOTHING beats the old Army/Navy black powder revolvers in terms of comfort. They just hang there in your hand. You know you got weight there, and it feels GOOD.

No matter where a .45 hits you, you go down, even if it's not leathal. Been shown time and again. Military is a 9mm because the gov is too cheap, as 9mm ammo costs less than .45.
I've used both the M1911 and the Beretta. No doubt about it, 1911 all the way. It's got the power, the feel, and the accuracy. Take a double-stack, and the beretta looses its superior ammo capacity, as well.
SEALs are special forces, no budget, choose their own weapons. They are trained killing machines and can place a 9mm round in your face, 9mm has a larger round capacity. That is why they choose to carry it.

Nothing special there. I can do that, and I suck with handguns.

Not gonna argue there. Except if you consider double-stack 1911. 12+1 and 13+1 capactiy. But, yeah, a 'normal' 1911 has a 7+1.

That's because the design for that gun was based off a heavily-modified revolver originally made by Taurus. Don't remember the exact model, though.
