I'd like this to be a poll, but since I couldn't possibly make one out of every gun in the world, a simple post will do!

I've spent the last couple years collecting only a few guns, but as of today, my favorite is my S&W 625 Performance Center (Miculek) .45ACP.

I just love shooting that gun.

-Robert

[bfox]

I like my Sig P220 :D

[Ala Dan]

Aw, another whats your favorite?


Like Mr. Fox mine is a


.45 CALIBER SIG P220!

That I own: it would be my Springfield 1911-A1. Not a tough choice when you only have 3.

That I don't own: All other 1911 style pistols. I am not too picky as to brand. It seems that all 1911s from the $3000+ customs to the more inexpensive ones such as Charles Daly and Rock Island have thier niche.

Wheel guns are starting to become an obsession.

[Dr.Rob]

My most fave to shoot?

Any of my Colts.

But I think my new service gets more grins.

The Magnum carry is a close second.

The Commander is my fave auto.

And there is something really neat about 60 gr Fiocchi out of my 1908 vest pocket .25.

Oh and my Navy, high velocity no kick lotta smoke.

[jem375]

that's easy.....SSK 375JDJ.....

[Soap]

Full size 1911. It just has to be a good example of that pistol and I'm good to go.

[Skunkabilly]

Nina. Duh :p

Nikita. Duh :neener:

[Bulldozer]

WHEELS:
Smith & Wesson Model 66-2 pinned & recessed Combat Magnum with 3-inch tube.

SHELL-CHUCKERS:
Colt Lightweight Commander Series 70

[boltaction]

Right now, it is the Glock 23.

(and as for rifle: M-N M44; and a carbine, at that).

[valnar]

I may end up changing my mind from my 625 once I get a top-o-line 1911. I'm saving for the $1500 range right now....

-Robert

[Hypnogator]

My all-time favorite is my old Detonics .45, which I picked up at the factory in Seattle when I was stationed at Ft. Lewis, WA. They did a throat and trigger job for me while I waited -- It'll now feed empty cases, and the trigger pull is better than any Gold Cup I've ever handled. :cool:

[P95Carry]

S&W Mod 27-2 ....... probably my greatest love.:) (next to wife ... sorry Hon! )

[Serpico]

You are all wrong...your favorite gun is the Browning hi-power....now go back and edit your posts...

[Mastrogiacomo]

Beretta 92FS compact M.:D

[Peter M. Eick]

All around favorite?

My custom Les Baer Heavyweight Monolith in 10mm. I had it built with his 1.5" 50 yard guarantee and it is accurate and has a great trigger. Besides it is 10mm so I can go magnum 10mm levels of short and weak 40 levels.

[Rob96]

Favorite revolver- Ruger KGP-141
Favorite pistol- Colt 1991A1
Please don't make me pick between the two.

For me, no contest. I love shooting 1911's. Mine is a Kimber Custom Classic I. Lots of guns are fun, this one really does it for me. Can't get enough of it.

[Ian11]

Tough one to answer because my SIG P220ST (old rail) and P226 (stamp slide) in 9mm are two of the best handguns I've ever owned. Both incredibly accurate, wonderful to shoot, and reliable reliable reliable.

But if I had to pick just one I'd have to give the edge to the P220ST. The workmanship SIG put into the P220ST is really the best I've seen in a production pistol. Built like a tank but with the finesse of a fine Swiss watch. I think its the finest value in handguns today bar none.:D :D :D :D

[45R]

Stuck between my Sig 226 and Kimber 1911

[10-Ring]

Current favorite... my USP 45

[Standing Wolf]

High Standard Trophy.

[MJRW]

If forced to respond, I would have to say my 4" stainless GP-100 with adjustable meprolights.

[Majic]

High Standard Supermatic Citation

[Gerald McDonald]

Hi Power

[Zeke Menuar]

'58 Remington 44cal cap n' ball revolver replica. Classy old piece. Noisy accurate. A piece of history in your hands. Not bad as a defensive weapon either. Wouldn't get rid of it ever.

ZM

[Darrin]

Hi Point .45 Best $700 I ever spent.







What? :uhoh:





Ok, the truth:
Of what I own; Handgun - P22, Long gun - Mossy 590

[Campusninja]

P7M8
followed by my SIG P228

[bad_dad_brad]

My Glock G17.

It shoots everytime, all the time. Recoil is light. Accuracy is more than adequate. I never clean her, well sometimes, but it does not matter, she shoots all the time every time regardless. A close second would be - surprise - my G19.

[agony]

Any classic SIG, especially the 220/220ST.

[sm]

1911 's -semi
K frame-revo

[tac17]

Mine would be my Glock 17 shot about everything and this is the one that I always come back to.

You are all wrong...your favorite gun is the Browning hi-power....now go back and edit your posts...

(chessy Dr. Evil Impersonation)...Riight.....(end chessy impersonation)
:scrutiny:


forget the Hi-Power, change your choice to the kraut staple gun...woot:evil:

[Brian Williams]

My S&W 13 3" HBRB

[WhoKnowsWho]

I can't choose a favorite... from all the stuff out there... too much... aurgh...

From what I own, I would say my USP 40 full size with nickel slide. But I feel like I am shrinking my love of all the other ones...

[taoshooter]

A well-built custom 1911 - whether its built by LesBaer, Kimber, or a Caspian frame beauty - in the finish of your choice - all the others are just second loves.

[mr e man]

my pistol of choice (right now) is the PARA ORDNANCE P-14.45 LTD with hand-made wood grips from NILL GRIFFE (germany).

[faustulus]

Hi Power.

[Prodigalshooter]

SA Champion, at least for now...
:p

[Smoke]

Para Ordnance P14.45 Limited

[krept]

Easy.

USPf .45 - it's my only one.

[Berg01]

Sig P228

[JShirley]

Argh! I'll say 4" bl Smith 657. Love 'em .41's.

[varoadking]

...there ain't nothin' like it...:D

[Johnny Guest]

Self loaders? Easy - - -The 1911 series. Which one? I just tole you - -The whole series!

Revolvers? Woah - - MUCH more difficult. The light weight .38 snubs, Colt and S&W, get a lot more use than any of the rest. But the big .44s and .45s . . . . And a couple of, uh - - -

We'll just let it go at the 1911(s.)

:D
Best,
Johnny

[litework]

Freedom Arms .454 Casull Premier Grade. I always wanted one. I finally broke down and bought it. I don't shoot it as often as my other pistols, but it is a blast to shoot. With other guns, I can squeeze off a few rounds and nothing really happens. When I fire the .454, everything in the woods gets quiet. I mean dead silent. It's like everything in the world collectively and simultaneously thinks "sheez that was pretty loud. I'd better play it cool for a while." My 300 RUM, .45-70, and M44 are the only other guns that give me this feeling.

[Spieler]

Right now I would have to say a Walther P-1. It groups better than I am capable of shooting and although it is a used Police trade-in, I haven't had a single hiccup with it in the more than 7 years I've had it. Besides, it never fails to draw a few comments or sideways glances at the range - something different from all the black plastic high-tech wonder guns that everyone else is shooting!
:p

[jimbo]

Geeeeeeeeez how can ANYONE answer this question?????????

OK my favorite all time handgun is the P08 Luger, by a nose over the Colt 1873 Army. Just by a nose.

My favorite handgun to shoot is a Sig P220.

[Okiecruffler]

My Savage Striker 501, but my Contender is creeping up on it since it came back from the factory.

[Jeff]

H&K USP f .45

S&W 586 6" .357 (pre-stamp)

[amprecon]

Well I see this will be a first, but my Glock 21 is my fav. I traded my first one, I felt it was too big and bulky, but I just haven't found another that fits my hand as well, is as reliable and shoots as well as they do.

[Dorrin79]

my Ruger MkII Target Model

not something I'd reach for in a gunfight, but the most "fun" pistol i've ever encountered.

[Reason]

Sig P228. Fits my hand like a glove, points perfectly, and holds 15 rounds. :D

[DW]

As of now, it would be my new Glock 19.

[mtnbkr]

Ruger GP100 with Hogue Cocobolo grips and Firesights. Out of three handguns, it's my favorite by far.

Chris

[Ultraman]

My single, most favorite pistol?

Well, my FAVORITE pistol is my Smith & Wesson Model 63 with 2" barrel and adjustable sights.

I don't carry it. I don't use it as a house gun. It's a joke as a target gun and it can't be used for hunting (2" barrel is illegal in most states).

However, I love stainless guns. I love snubbies. I like adjustable sights. I love CHEAP .22 LR Ammunition. Plus they are just plain CUTE! In fact I have 5 of them.

http://mediaservice.photoisland.com/auction/Jul/2003788476971643846506.jpg

[Kingknives]

Definitely my Browning Hi-Power. C&S trigger, Novak sights and Spegel grips.... the perfect shooting machine!

Joe

[Meowhead]

Sig Sauer P225. Small, the grip fits my hand perfectly, I like the action, and mine has been perfectly reliable. No jams at all ever.

Ruger Redhawk in .44 Mag is a close second. First gun I ever bought, so I'm probably biased.

[MCNETT]

Wheelgun: my 4" SS GP-100
Auto: my first Glock 20
-Mike

[Fly Navy]

Without a doubt, the SIG Sauer P226 9mm. I fell in love with this pistol the first time I held it. It fits me like a glove, shoots PERFECT, and even new shooters do really well with it. I love it!

[euclid]

My Kimber Custom SS .45.

I have to work hard to shoot that pistol poorly. It's a fantastic firearm.

cheers

[OEF_VET]

My favorite: S&W 686

[caz223]

If I could pick a favorite, I would sell off the rest.
But I can't, so I guess I'll keep on collecting the set...

[John Ross]

From 1971 until three weeks ago: 8 3/8" M29.

Since 6/17/2003 (my birthday, how about that?): S&W 500.

JR

[Sean Smith]

Ask me again in about a month. :D

[BigG]

5" Colt Automatic Pistol, Calibre .45 :D

[Sheslinger]

Walther P99 - the most comfortable handgun I ever held.

Sheslinger

[blooch]

if you asked mne three weeks ago, i'd have said a gun i sold long ago to go school, a high standard military trophy model with 7 1/4" bbl.

now i would have to say my les baer premier II that i bought about three weeks ago. it will shoot with the high standard and is on my favorite pistol platform.. the 1911. :D

[Sven]

Hands down: Valtro

http://www.imageseek.com/valtro/sven/1998A1_s.jpg

Can I get a WITNESS?

[lee n. field]

of what I personally own? _Single_ favorite?

Classiest -- S&W Model 19-4, 4", nickel. For formal wear. Nice double action trigger.

[RustyHammer]

From what I own? My custom built Colt .45 ACP, long slide with match barrel. Shoots like it has radar .... love that piece!

[joenuclear]

Sven,
You can get a Witness but why would you? You've got a Valtro!
Me too!:cool:

[Dorian]

Angelina, DUH!!! ;)

[BHPshooter]

The only pistol I own is a Browning Hi Power.

But let me clarify: I planned my pistol purchase for 2 years, So, more accurately, the BHP is my favorite pistol! I made sure of that before I bought one.

Wes ;)

[tlhelmer]

Glock 19!

[rage]

Most favorite...Glock 30.

Wish I could carry more...Ruger GP141, blued.

[44]

-- S&W 44mag Mountain Gun

[Pendragon]

Ditto the Valtro.

It got me interested in revolvers - I could hardly imagine a better auto pistol so I thought if I wanted some variety, go wheely.

[chaim]

Wow, I have enough trouble trying to narrow it down to a specific class of guns. To try to narrow down further to a specific model within that class is just painful.

My two favorite classes of guns, it is hard to say which I prefer, are 1911s and medium framed .357s. If I really had to pick I'd probably go w/ the medium framed .357s since they are revolvers and well, you just have to love the blast (literally and figuratively) you get from shooting off a full magnum out of them. If I really must narrow down further I could probably say S&W medium framed guns but more is almost too painful (though I think I might be able to say I prefer K-frames, I love L-frames, maybe even more than Ks, but Ks are just so much more versatile).

[Gunfyter]

Hands down, Kimber Custom Classic Royal

[Boiler_G]

My first and only ... Colt Gov't .45 ACP :D

[usnavymasterchief]

My beautiful, too heavy, ugly (so am I) Kahr K40. It shoots straight, packs a hell of a wallop and has a great DAO trigger. It's the only one of my dozen or so handguns that I don't have the urge to dress up or change in some way. Mine has worked great since day 1 right out of the box. If it aint broke, don't fix it!
John

[einnor1040]

My favorite gun to shoot is a S & W model 1917 45acp Brazilian contract.
It is sweeeeet. :cool:

einnor

[Schuey2002]

Currently it's a Glock 19, but that's about to change ..

H&K P9/P9S here I come!

Reeeeeeehaw! ;)

[SnWnMe]

I look in my gun safe and I ponder while looking at my babies... Well, I guess it will be my 6" P&R M-17, but man that M-41 is tugging at my heart... Nope, I will be strong. M-17!!!

[brookstexas]

My Kimber, No wait! My Glock 19, No wait!....

Remember: It's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it! :evil:

[TODD3465]

Favorite handgun! Might as well ask someone who is a parent of several kids who is their favorite child!:what: :D

[Pappy John]

:D This afternoon it's my new 696!:D :neener:
Don't tell the others.

[lawboy]

Browning Hi-Power Mark II nickle, belgian-made.
How anyone can neglect to own one I will never comprehend ...

[Frenchy]

It would have to be my classic 1953 "M&P"!

http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2003-7/206249/MPSUBDUED.JPG

[six 4 sure]

With out a doubt my Hi-power. A close second is my P225.

six

[genie]

for the sheer joy of really loud booms: ruger srh in .454 casull. there's something very cool looking about a huge revolver. and it's just so much fun! you know you're about to do something ridiculous when touching one off. :D

when shooting more than 20 rounds a session: glock 19. for this little genie, it's so comfortable. i'm very fond of my little glock :)

[TODD3465]

Well ok in that vein I'd say my Desert Eagle .44 for sheer loud-n-booming fun. Though it is also quite easy to control in rapid fire.

But for a long shooting session it would be my Glock 17L.:D

[incursion]

HK P7M8

[MessedUpMike]

CZ-75B

[Ky Larry]

That's like asking which child is your favorite. Probably my T/C Contender. Super accurate and versitile.

[AZLibertarian]

My Belgian Browning Hi-Power is the first handgun I bought. Man, do I love that gun. It's kind of like your first love. As deeply as you may love your spouse, it's hard not to think back to those heady days of your first love affair.

My 18 year old son also loves shooting my Hi-Power. He can't hit anything with it, but that's another story. Daughter #1--my feminine daughter--earlier this month asked to go to the range and shoot one of my handguns...Wow--A Dad's Dream!! Started her out on the .22 revolver, then on to Mrs. AZLib's Walther PPK, then finally to the Hi-Power. She, too, now loves this gun. The current dilemma is which one "get's" my Hi-Power. I guess I'll have to buy them each a new one as college graduation gifts.

Of course, if any of us was honest, the answer to "What's your single, favorite pistol?" would be......My Next Pistol!!:D

[Rickstir]

Beretta 92FS, call me Hollywood

[modifiedbrowning]

My Walther P88 compact, but the P88 fullsize and the P99's are all tied for second.

[Rebeldon]

Glock 30 :D

[Matthew_Q]

I really like my 1911 Milspec. The 1911 is one of the greatest handguns ever made, IMHO. Fits right in the hand, powerful, accurate... VERY mod-able.

I'm hoping that when I get a CZ 75B that it will become my next favorite pistol. I'm sure I'll love it if all the good reviews I've read about them are true!

[Safety First]

Shock... Horror.... Disbelief......I bet none you expected me say Sig P-239, I bet that was a really BIG surprise:D :D :D

[LeonCarr]

17 the best, but I also like the 22 and 23.

Read the signature.

[JOE MACK]

My absolute favorite is my old model Ruger Blackhawk in .41Magnum. It's been a constant companion since I first got it in the '60s. RKBA!

[RandyB]

Kimber eclipse 1911

[Tamara]

My Springfield Pro... no, wait, my Colt Series 80 Enhanced in .38 Super (it's so pretty)... no, wait... my PC13... no...

[New_comer]

My HK USP9f...


It's the only pistol I have! :D

[SSGMike]

To shoot - revolver, S&W 19-6, auto Ruger P90
To carry - Kel-Tec P11
To joke about - my trusty Davis .22 mag Derringer! :p (hey, $20 is $20!)

[CZ-100]

For the past 15 years it was my Colt Delta Elite 10mm...:D

But since I purchased it a couple of months ago..

it's my CZ 85B Combat :what:

[Poohgyrr]

Auto: Hi Power:D
Revolver: Ummmmmm, 3.5" S&W .357.. no... 4" S&W M24.... no... 2" Centennial... no... Detective Special.... no.... :banghead: :cuss: howdoesanyoneexpectustomakethisdecision???????

Just one favorite? I can't pick just one, so you have to toss me any of my first three choices above and I'll be happy with that pistol. Then I can go shotting with a friend who has the others, and we can swap. ;)

PS: Serpico is right ;)........

[Stevie-Ray]

My custom Colt Mark IV
