WooHoo! Another room for another expensive hobby. :smt096

What is your favorite pistol?

I own quite a few different types, but the one I put in the night stand every night is a Sig Sauer P220 - .45 ACP. :smt071

How about you?

I've got an H&K USP 9 Compact. I really like Sig, Glock or H&K - you can't go wrong with any of those!

I don't know about favorite, it's more like my only pistol. I have a Ruger KP944D, .40, that my brother gave me for my second wedding. I should have shot her before she could cheat! Oh, sorry........I also have a Winchester 1300 Defender with 00 Buck. Hope no one comes into my house with intent to do harm. Actually, now that I think about it, I hope no one is on the other side of the wall that I am shooting toward. That 00 will go right through the walls........ :smt107

Good lord, another forum for a hobby I can't really afford! :lol:

My stand by is my first ever purchase: H&K UPS compact in .40

Big fan of a H&K and Sig. Glocks are excellent handguns, I just don't care for the looks.

Para-Ord CCW - .45 w/ 7rd mags (1911 variant)

I like:

Glock 19 / 9mm (10 rd mags only in CA)
Smith & Wesson .357 Magnum (7 shot)

A good friend has been letting me shoot his Kimber Pro Carry .45 ACP when we're at the range. I like this pistol a lot and would like to get one in the future.

Nice room! :smt071


My favorite carry pistol is my Colt Officer's model. (slightly tuned.)

My favorite shooter is my Ruger MK11 stainless. (see above.)

My favorite handgun is my old pre-warning Ruger Super Blackhawk .44 mag. I've taken three deer with that wheelgun, all with handloads and home-cast, hard-cast bullets. That old gun just seems like a natural extension of my hand, like pointing my finger... It just doesn't get any better than that!

My all time favorite pistola is the HK USP (Universal Self-loading Pistol)..Not going to start discussing inventory here, but in the touch safe on the nightstand is a Baby Eagle (formerly known as the Jericho) in .45ACP chalk full of my good friend Mr. Hydra-Shok...

They aren't firearms but they sure are fun for plinking in the garage while smoking. The only firearm I own is a Marlin Lever Action 30/30 that is stored at my fathers house.

Being a lefty, I am unable to handle Sigs properly...I have had no problems with any other weapons so far, but I'm just not comfortbale with my ability to handle the Sig right now..

The Glock 21 (45)is my current favorite but the 29 (10mm) is a good second.

Sig 228 9mm for duty carry. Browning Hi-Power 9mm in the closet. Colt Mustang .380 for backup weapon or in the night stand. Picked up a Bernardelli P19 chambered in 9X21 when I was in Italy in the mid 80's. :smt023

My favorite is my Springfield stainless TRP that I have recently outfitted with wolf springs. This is a tack driver.
