This thread is like the old 'If i could have only one...)

It would be a Glock. Any Glock. I happen to like my Glock 22 (40).

I feel like I have many good choices.

I wouldn't own any pistol that I didn't trust to go "bang". Every time.

BHP, Beretta 92FS, Colt NMGC, Colt Combat Commander, Colt New Agent, etc.

Is this the first shot, or continued follow up shots...???....My new Gsg-5 .22LR has never jammed, nor my SA M1 Garand...BUT, Trust takes time. The Mac-90 fires first shot everytime, but seems I have had a couple jams...the AR-15, the same, although after new buffer spring, no hang ups so far...the gun I have shot alot over the years, killed alot of deer with, an have that trust in, is my old reliable Mossberg 500 pump .12 ga.

Sorry, wrong place to post, only saw when it has to go bang, not the HANDGUN page.....handgun would be 1911 Llama .45

S & W 325 PD is the bedside weapon. 6 rounds of 200 gr Gold Dot will do the job.:

 

[SgtGunner]

Glock, any Glock but like the other guy, I also prefer my G22.

 

[30mag]

I only have one handgun.. BUT when it HAS to go bang, I reach for my bolt-action .30-06.

Ze German Wunder Pistole.

HK.

 

[PT1911]

I have several rifles, handguns, and shotguns... if i had to decide on one to shoot every time it would be my single shot 12 ga.... 608 coming in a really close second.

 

[mbt2001]

S&W Model 19... Now I just need to get another one.

 

[sohcgt2]

This bell has already been rung Glock G22.

 

[Ala Dan]

Smith & Wesson revolver- aka: model 10, 19, or 27~!

 

[chuckusaret]

Springfield XD40 sub compact

 

[yosarian]

Glock 9mm 17 or 26.

 

[riverdog]

Glock 17/19 or S&W revolver -- rationale is that the only times I've had a problem with a pistol not going bang it was because the a 1911 safety was engaged -- software issue, not hardware.

 

[WardenWolf]

When it absolutely has to go bang, I reach for an AK-47. My Saiga .223, specifically. For handguns, I'd have to say my Romanian Tokarev pistol. After a basic wipedown, I fired a 50-round box at the range with no stoppages.

 

[tenbears]

Any Smith and Wesson I have ever had. It goes "BOOM!" Every time.

 

[A-FIXER]

glock in a pistol, ruger in a rifle,

 

[HammerheadSSN663]

Colt 45 Series 70

 

[wheelgun6T9]

Go figure - I'm a revolver guy too. I'd reach for my 3" model 65. It's a little pig and I love it.

In a pinch though I wouldn't turn down my Kimber Pro Carry 45. Never failed me and it'll take a bite out of crime.
