There's not much between them, it comes down to preference. There could be a Shadow 2 in the cabinet in the near future.

They don't like licencing two guns of the same calibre, it can be done but they need a bit of convincing. The good thing is i can walk into a dealers tomorrow trade in one 9MM pistol and walk out with a new one, the dealer sorts out the paper work with the police.
The Justice (Northern Ireland) Act 2011
For some time a system has been in place to allow “one off – one on” exchanges of shotguns in Northern Ireland. From 1st December 2011 the system was extended to other firearms. The exchange of rifles and pistols may only take place with registered firearms dealers (not between certificate holders) and firearms may only be exchanged for another of the “same calibre and type”.

You win.. I would take one pistol over almost all my guns as I didn't start shooting until after the gun grab..
