What's Your Favorite Handgun?

[JustReality]

My favorite to plink steel at the range is a Glock 34, most fun to feel the power is a 10mm Glock 20 and smoothest shooting is Dan Wesson 1911 Commander Bobtail.

Have a lot of favorites in my collection but later in life I have become a fan of CZ pistols.  Both of these converted to SAO (2.5lb triggers) and customized by Cajun Gun Works.  

 Love Cz!     That burnt bronze one is great.

My favorite handgun depends on a couple things.   How I think about the need at that time in my area, and if I feel I might need multiple shots.

MY EDC gun in a S&W SHEILD EZ 9.  I know, it only holds 8 in the mag plus 1.  BUT, I am a good shot and do not plan on needing more than 2 or 3 unless there are multiple assailants. I also always carry at least one extra Mag.

If the situation dictates, I would carry my Sig P228/ M11A1 in 9mm with 18 round Magazines.  This is one of the first guns the seals carried and I trained with this gun in all my NRA class's.  I also carry at least one extra Mag when I carry this gun.

In a SHTF situation, I would be carrying everything I could carry including a 357 revolver for those longer range shots and don't ever think that 100 yards is too long for a handgun shot, IF you know how to shoot.

Or change my plans altogether.  Or, at least carry a long gun.

I love to shoot my DA/SA P30L.  With all the adjustability you can make the gun feel like it is part of your hand.

Hands down, for fun, it has to be one of my Ruger MK's.

I carry G17/19 95% of the time. They are like the AK's of the pistol world, they always go bang. I have a few 1911's that I love and carry the remaining 5% of the time.

I bought a Moel 36 3" like this in 1980 at the Donelson Hardware Store in Nashville.  I still carry it with pride.  Of all the handguns I owned before the boating accident, this is the fastest to draw and fire.

There are some pretty crappy boaters around here. I'm a Model 36 fan too. I owned a 2" in the 70's and sold it. Looked for a replacement for years, and finally bought one here on TGO. I won't ever sell this one.
