I think if I had to grab a gun and it had to last the rest of my life I'd go for a stainless .357 revolver.

Just as the title states, if you had to choose one handgun, and only one in case the SHTF what would it be?
I would assume most people would choose something with 9mm caliber due to the fact that the ammo is everywhere, but taking into account everything else like stopping power, accuracy, availability of ammo, etc.
What would you choose?
I tend to lean towards a Colt model 1911, any opinions on this?
Benefits or drawbacks?
I have a friend who swears by his 'glock 21 plastic model' as I love to call it, but I don't know if I could trust my life to plastic composites.
And I apologize if this has been covered somewhere else I couldn't find it.

lots of land. i see that.
but after a year or two nearly every animal big enough to be shot will be shot.
you'll be condemned to hunting bugs, or each other.
yum yum!
