The g26 is certainly the most versatile pistol out there. It could be a deep conceal gun and double as a duty gun, especially with the x grip. 10 rds or 33 plus. I ended up getting a g48 because I'm skinny but you can't go wrong with a g26.

How it shoots is what really keeps me interested in my G26. Really does shoot more like a full-size pistol when compared to the slim micro compacts. Actually makes shooting with a small pistol enjoyable. Only other slim pistol I’m interested in is the Hellcat Pro.

I'm a Taurus guy mainly. I own a couple of Caniks as well, but I could honestly say I'd own this. I'm not a big Glock fan because people like to act like it's the be all end all when it comes to guns. I disagree, but I always said I'd buy one if I could find the one that just speaks to me and this one does that. I'd definitely carry this as a secondary for my Gx4. Which has about the same dimensions and holds 13 +1.

[@davidbarnes7999]

i’ve been carrying the 26 for years and a few weeks ago got a wild hair to replace it and bought a sig p365x-macro. great handgun and it shoots great and carries well, BUT it is within millimeters of the same size as a glock 19, just thinner. so i’m back to old reliable mod 26 for edc all day long. it’s just hard to beat for lots of people.

If anyone is comfortable with the recoil of the G26 even after 100 rounds in a row then yes this would be the best 9mm. For me so far, it's the Glock 19. I want to try the Glock 23 (or Glock 22) to see if I can handle its 40 caliber. If I can handle any of the 40 caliber Glocks with enough comfort and ease, that will be my ultimate do it all gun (though the G22 would be more for open carry) since it can shoot 9mm, 40 caliber, and .357 SIG. Also the ballistics of a 4 inch barrel and longer seem much more trustworthy if it's the only gun I'll ever have (which I hope I'm able to have more than one firearm and that no law/rule will limit our ownership of firearms to just one).
