what a great list. Awesome!

How is the trigger on a Sig P226?

 

[MCgunner]

I only own four. I prefer revolvers. But, my fave is my Ruger P90. I've been there, done that with 1911s. I'll pass on those. I'm quite open to CZs, Sigs (if I could afford one) and what not DA. I prefer DA with decocker or DAO in a pocket auto. Not really up on Glocks, don't like 'em, but they're good autos. Push comes to shove, I'd rather shoot my revolvers.

Not necessarily based upon their individual merits but their impact on the gun industry as a whole. Every semi-automatic pistol you see on the market today is somewhat influenced by one the five I mentioned.

[kahrcarry]

Ruger Mk II.
Colt 1911 and variants.
Glock 17. GLocks in generally, really. But this was/is the benchmark Glock.
Beretta 92/M9.
Walther PP series.

I'm taking it from a historical perspective. If I made a list of my personal favorites, they would all be Glocks and 1911s.
