Glock... cause we all know how reliable they are and lets face it... something COULD happen that would test the guns durability, and glocks been through plenty of those kinda tests

I am needing to purchase a new gun this winter so I am prepared when spring comes and hiking season is back in full swing.
Suggestion or thoughts?
Why not a .357 magnum pistol in a recognizable 1911 format:
Coonan - Welcome to Coonan!
New production
Why????
Dang it now I need another 1911.
I understand that in a SHTF situation, it's not the 1st concern, but I would lean towards a round that's not literally deafening to shoot without hearing protection. the short bbl magnums would be just miserable on the ears.
S&W 329 Night Guard .44mag
Why just one? I like my current set up: NAA blackwidow 22/22mag snake shot or just another backup and it disappears in your pocket. A Glock 23, and if you happen to be taking a day pack you can add a Keltec Sub 2000 and use the same mags as your Glock.
Cause you never know when the next ninja squirel attack might be coming! Also, bears and cougars now attack in packs of five or more! Might take a bazooka in cast the dinasour zombies come back to life!
Although, I guess overkill is always better than underkill. So who am I to judge.
Don't say you weren't warned about the Ninja Squirrels...
And in all honesty, the Black Widow is my daily pocket carry gun and coupled with the fact I hate rattlesnakes and it weighs nothing it works well. The sub 2000 will get close to 10mm power with a .40. So if a bear is a real worry it would work well, and also allow you to be able to take an unlucky coyote at decent range if you happened to come across one.
I went with the Glock 20SF as my woods gun. Sure the G29 is smaller, but I go in bear country. On my last trip out, we saw four grizzlies at two different times within 200-300 yards from camp. The G20 never left my side. I was looking over my shoulder after every other cast while trout fishing.
I made a youtube video on how to carry with or without a pack on:
