I carry a 1911 on duty in as a Law Enforcement Professional. I don't feel under gunned.

Also anyone who clears a building by themselves and/or with only a pistol (I don't care what make, model, or caliber) is a fool in my opinion.

ETA: When I know I'm going on the offense I bring a long gun, if I think I need to go on the offense I bring a long gun. Basically the only time I don't bring a long gun is traffic stops or reports of late crimes.
