I used to carry a P226 at a job I had. Good guns. carried two 15 rnd mags and one 20rnd mag in the pistol. had the trinium night sites, integrated laser, etc. used a Safariland SSIII holster.
The fifty is ok, but has a tendancy to jam, requires specific ammo to work properly, and has a lower magazine capacity. It's just not practical. The .357 is more useful, still has plenty of power, and nearly no recoil at all thanks to the energy absorbing rolling block when the slide returns.
very well designed piece.
