Favorite Autoloader

[FireArmFan]

This is probably a duplicate or if not very similar to a previous thread, but I was wondering, with all the different mainstream types guns out there which one is your favorite. There are so many Glock fans out there or 1911 fans, I just want to see how the numbers match up. You can base it on shootability, reliability, looks, whatever you want. If you chose other, please specify

Can I Have Two Choices For Favorites?

Me being me, I have to show the world that actually MY favorite semi-auto
comes down too two; so therefore I didn't vote in the poll. My all time duty
weapon favorite has to be the West German SIG-SAUER line of classic P
series pistols; as far as "combat weapons" go. OTOH, my favorite to shoot
(and now my daily carry piece) is a 1911~! So, go figure as I do admit
to having two favorites~!

I hear ya

I understand that, the only reason i didn't allow more than one choice was because i didn't want everybody voting for a bunch of different choices. I want to see what people would pick if they could only pick 1. I personally really like both the Sigs and HK's but if i had to pick only one it's gonna be the 1911.

1911 (in .45ACP)... of all the automatic pistols I've shot/handled, it fits me best, and has what I consider to be one of the best rounds ever in terms of power/controlability in an auto.

And it's a classic.

 

[gbelleh]

I voted other. The HKP7 series of pistols are my favorite autoloaders.

 

[Mad Magyar]

I voted for "other"....I'm still enamored for the R.O.K. pistols....

 

[Shawn 357]

I voted for the XD, it seems like the more rounds I get through mine, the more fun it is to shoot! I've had others that I eventually just got sick of and sold off. I pesonally do not like the looks of XD's but they fit my hand well and are reliable.

XD

I voted XD, I love mine and the ergonomics are perfect for me. Its reliable, accurate and comfortable to shoot. I could not ask more from that pistol.

 

[kokapelli]

Browning high power, CZ75B and CZPCR, all about equal for me.

 

[115grfmj]

my new favorite

my p64 in 9x18, slim trim, deep sexy blue, tack driving accurate, and dead nut's reliable. All she needed was walther ppk 18# hammer spring ($4.) to cure her tough da pull.

I bet 1911 will win overall. but i voted xd, any caliber any frame size, they are all great and are by far my favorite handgun, of all time.

 

[FireArmFan]

Yea, I figured 1911 would do pretty well, However the "other" category isn't trailing by too much. I figure I can't draw a good conclusion until this poll gets quite a bit more votes.

1911s for me.
I like many handguns, I love 1911s.

I don't have a favorite per se...more like favorites. I really like a well tuned 1911 and BHP. I also like polyguns like the HK USP / P2000 and 9mm's from Glock, especially the G19
Tough when you don't have an "all of the above" button in the poll

 

[the pistolero]

I voted for the 1911 (I have a Springfield and two Kimbers), but I've had great experiences with the Ruger P-Series pistols, too. I'd buy another P90 to go with the one I have now if I had the money. One for the house and one for the truck.

 

[bigmike45]

I have two that run neck and neck. My XD-45 and Wilson Combat Professional. The only reason I chose the XD-45 over the Wilson is due to magazine capacity.

 

[rich52us]

I enjoy shooting many different types of handguns at the range. 1911, SA revolver, etc. I picked Glock because that's the SD pistol i carry every day.

 

[toocool]

I had to go with "other" as I really love my S&W M&P; however, if I were ever told I could only have ONE gun, first, I'd move to a better place, but if I could only have ONE, I'd have to take a Glock 17; I don't really care for the grip or the trigger, but the ease of maintenance, availability of replacement parts (and 9mm ammo) would make it my "only one" gun. I just don't care for the 1911 platform, which is why I don't own one and probably never will.

 

[Thylacine]

Other, CZ52.


I will put on my flame proof suit now.

 

[The Real Hawkeye]

I picked the 1911, because that' what I carry, and it happens to be my favorite, but other worthies, in my opinion, are the Browning High Power and the Kahr P series. I have one of each, and think a lot of them.

Sig 229, in .40. If I could only keep one, that'd be it. Hard to explain. I have three 1911s, and I love 'em. But the 229 is so solid, so unfailing, so accurate, so easy to clean. To me, its only "failings" are weight, grip width and $$$$$$$$$ (Add tritium sights and LaserMax --- Presto! a $1300 gun.)

With whatever there is I don't like, it is still the safest-to-handle, most effective. A range buddy described it as "an assassin's tool." A totally-efficient raygun .

It also eats everything. Sometimes I think I could fill the mags with rocks and sand and it'd shoot pebbles.
