Well it seems Im a bit late here,...everyones pretty much said what I was going to say but...

I own a Sig Sauer 226 in .357Sig as well as a Sig Sauer 220 in .45 ACP and a Kimber in 45 ACP. BOTH rounds are awesome for any sort of defensive desire.
The .357 Sig obviously being a higher velocity round does have a 'bit' more kick to it than my 45s but not very much.

I havent fired Glock's .357sig model so I cant compare the way my SigSauer fires to any other .357sig, but I have no issues with it.
Its my choice to carry for 'open carry' as it is a full size pistol. For concealed I have my Kimber Ultra Covert 2.

As far as ammo,...I haven't had ANY issues finding ammo in any of the states Ive been to. Normally I just ordered it thru ammoman.com.

I'd recommend it if you're looking for something with more power than a 9mm.
