if you could only have one handgun, which one would it be?

[flintman50]

PMR30.....light, accurate and 30 rounds in a row on target.....

 

[Liberty1911]

My Springfield 1911. It's like shooting poetry.

 

[Cam]

For me this would be a toss up between the ol' Glock 23 and my Smith Model 66.

 

[ranger justus]

Walther PPQ

 

[quicksdraw]

One of my 1911s,

 

[drgnrobo]

1911 FULL SIZE 45 ACP SPRINGFIELD ARMORY

 

[IUprof]

1. My 1911
2. My Beretta 92A1

I know you said only one!

 

[MrNobody]

Another vote for Glock 23

 

[Jackson]

What am I going to do with it? Without that information, I could not choose.

For my purposes (personal defense) I have settled in to the Glock 19, with multiple guns, magazines, spare parts, .22 conversion kit, holsters, etc. So I suppose in real life I have already chosen.

 

[SmokinSigs357]

Sig Sauer P228. Everybody else answered this question incorrectly...

 

[jgressley2003]

i'm gonna pick my Glock 23

 

[B-lou]

S&W 1911 all stainless in 9mm....sweet gun to shoot

1911. Not much I need done that can't be done with a 5" 1911. There was a time when, other than a .38 snub nose, it was my only handgun.

I carry a Sig P220 now, though, as my department is scared of SAO pistols. Not sure what makes a DA/SA safer. I never forget to put the thumb safety back on with the 1911 but remembering to de-cock took some training.

 

[groovatron]

Walther PPQ

man.....this is my current favorite on the market......and my EDC.......but....

I have to go with a g19.....mostly due to track record and parts availability.




As far as how I made the decision, well, if I can only have one pistol, it's gotta be a combat gun. I'm more utility anymore than a collector anyway.

 

[TopDog]

I agree it depends. If I could only have one handgun today it would be the Glock 22, it can easily shoot 3 calibers. It is relentlessly reliable and dont forget the cool factor.

If I could only have one handgun in a post apocalyptic world It would be a Ruger Redhawk in .44 mag.

 

[Black Cloud]

S&W .460 Revolver. For just about any of your needs.

 

[draftyranger]

Smith and Wesson 686 4" .357 Magnum! Target Shoot with .38, Personal protection with the.357!

 

[jtmason15]

Mine would definitely have to be a glock 19. Very accurate little guns but you can still conceal them to where no one can see them. Plus Glock's name speaks for itself. The most reliable guns on the market. I would never trust my life to anything else.

 

[zippy23]

dan wesson commander classic, i guess since i own one i am bias!!!

 

[DocHoliday]

Glock19 with a G18 mag
