There's some pretty fascinating opinions floating around in this thread. I particularly like the concept of suppressive fire making an appearance in an EDC handgun discussion.
Carry what you shoot the best the fastest at real world encounter distances. Not carrying a semi-auto due to reliability issues is an outdated concept. There are tons of reliable SA's out there. I own a couple that have thousands of rounds without a single malfunction with factory ammo. Not carrying a revolver (that you shoot well) because of capacity is weighting a single aspect of firearm selection out of proportion to its utility. More ammo is better. More accuracy, faster target acquisition, more natural pointing, that all matters more and matters more often. Choose your handgun accordingly.
