What are your favorite handguns? If you could own a select number of Handguns (lets say around 5 at most) what Handguns would they be?

I think mine would be:
Dan Wesson heritage rz45 1911 .45acp
Sig p229 9mm
smith and wesson j frame
smitha and wesson model 29 .44 remington mag
Heckler-Koch HK-45 .45acp
something semi-auto in 10mm

In no particular order:

1: Glock 23 (my EDC)
2: Browning BDM (favorite full size 9mm)
3: S&W 3913 (favorite smallish 9mm)
4: Beretta PX4 Storm .40 S&W (don't have one but badly want)
5: Colt Mustang .380 (just got one for summer carry)
 
Baer .38 Super 1911

Freedom Arms 97 .357

Ruger Mk II 4-1/2" fixed sight NRA/Ruger commemorative.
 
1. RUGER REDHAWK 4" barrel in 45Colt, Satin Stainless/ Hogue Grip
2. RUGER NEW VAQUERO 45 Colt, Gloss Stainless (already have).
3. KIMBER Ultra Carry .45 ACP
4. GLOCK G-36 45ACP ,with a Lasermax and adj. sights
5. RUGER LCP .380 (already have).
 
Over the years, I've been lucky enough to pick up most of my faves so to narrow it to 5 is kinda unfair but per the question, my top 5 (today :D ) would be

-P7M8
-Colt 1911 Gold Cup
-HK USP 45/9 (does this count as 2?)
-Python
-S&W mod 17

HK45 (I live in CA)
HK USP 45 (deciding)
XD 45ACP 4" (deciding)
Ruger SR9 (love at first grip)
Beretta 92FS (I've always loved it since my dad's. I think its beautiful)
Glock G19 (just to see if I can break it)
FN FiveSeven (only if we had 20rd mags)
Did I go over?
 
Colt Gold Cup - blue
Colt Light Weight Commander XSE
Sig 226
S&W 442 - no lock
S&W 617 - 4inch
and if no one was looking I would slip a sixth into my bag,
S&W 65- 4inch
 
S&W 1911 5" Bbl.
CZ 75B 9mm Luger
S&W 625 5" Bbl. .45 ACP / .45 Auto RIm
S&W 617 6" Bbl. .22 LR 10 shot Cyl.
S&W 60 3" Bbl. .357 Mag.

I practice DA, or SA to DA a lot with the revolvers,
started with a MOdel 18 in my teens. I carried the
1911 on watch/duty in the USN & qualified for the
'Marksman" ribbon with a 'range' gun.

Next handgun will be a CCO style 1911, but
next revolver probably a 610 10mm AUto/.40 S&W. .

I suppose a Kadet conv. kit might push the 75B to
the top of the list.

1) Without question my 82 vintage Smith 66
2) Ruger SR9
Smith 60, again 82 vintage
Browning Buck Mark
Smith 442
I didn't list my 2nd choices in any order. I love them all. The 66 had an unfair adventage. My late father bought it new and it's such a sweet shooter.
 
Hmmmmm, just five. Who is it who keeps setting these rules? :mad:

OK:

1. A Ruger Bearcat
2. A Walther P.38
3. A Walther P5
4. A Walther P88
5. A Walther PPK

And yes, that still leaves a good half-dozen must-have guns on my list.
 
Colts, S&W Revolvers, Sig Sauers, Rugers, and The Wilson Combat 1911.


I've forget something; I also like my Buckmarks

Back in the day I owned a lot of pistols but my very favourite was always my Beretta Mod 34. .380
Beretta-34-dx.gif

It's a beautiful little pocket pistol. (This wasn't my actual gun - it's a stock pic)
 
My favorites are my Rock Island 1911, Glock 22, and my Taurus 66. I have handled Hi Powers in 9mm, and loved them. I have also shot a Smith Model 66 and a 29. Great guns!
 
My favorites

Kahr PM9, Kahr P380, Walther PPS 9mm, Beretta PX4 9mm, PX4sc 9mm,
XD45c, XD9sc, XDM 40 to name a few. Actually, I have never owned a gun I didn't like.
