haha "...Some would carry automatics..." - so this IS a matter of personal preference? 
For you it is, but for a bodyguard it is about the position you have in the team.
When in the inner circle, right with your customer, all you need is a revolver.
On some positions in the protection team an automatic is more useful, so "some would carry automatics".

I recently sent my Sig Sauer P220 Stainless .45 out to get a few mods done to it, but finally received it yesterday. I added a new barrel and compensator, new meprolight adjustable sights, polished short trigger, polished throat, barrel, and feed ramp, polished rails and polished internals. I took her to the range last night and after adjusting the sights, I was able to get 3" groupings from 10 yards! Check it out!

I have two Kimbers. A stainless Goldmatch II (house) and a CDP Ultra Carry (E60).
I use Ranger-T as ammo. I have tested numerous bullets and these are by far the best.

Old pic taken at work years ago:
Not me firing though, I'm instructing. Good thing is I don't have to settle for short ranges
.
Don't flame about the shooter's high position, basic training's going on there
