What was your first Handgun?

[clfergus]

Bulgarian Makarov 9X18

 

[Z-Glock23]

I just purchased my first handgun and I went with a Glock 23 chambered in .40 S&W. Damn reliable, and one of the most safe and simple guns too fire. The safety built into the trigger is an awesome feature!!!

 

[mcaf55]

22 Ruger with 5 1/2" barrel.

 

[jimmyton]

HK USP in 45 ACP

Bought it from a friend who was the second owner. appeared to have somewhere between 5-10k through it. Put a new recoil spring and hammer spring in, and has been a flawless gun since. Also, very, very accurate.

S&W Model 19 4 inch nickle. Still have it, still love it!

Mine was a high standard sport king for trapping back in 1975,still goes trapping with me.

Glock 17 technically it is actually my wifes.

My first one was a FN 5-7 shortly followed by 1911. Most of the time I shoot my G19 though.

Second gen S&W Model 469...blued, double stack mags, had a crap trigger but I liked it and didnt know any better when I was 21...wish i still had it...

 

[DaleB]

Ruger Super Single Six Convertible. Got it when I turned 21 to match the first rifle I ever owned, which I got at 16: a Ruger 10/22. Only this time I bought it without my dad having to sign for me! And I still have them both. The 10/22 needs a barrel, tho, or at least that's the story I'm tellin!

 

[Hookfish]

My first actual handgun was a Ruger .357 Blackhawk
My first new handgun was a Hi-Point 9mm

 

[tom]

S&W Tactical 45 still got it and it turned me into a diehard S&W fan!

 

[Rev19:11]

2nd Gen Glock 19 which I'm actually trying to sell/trade for a 3rd Gen g19.

No threadjacks here, though. I'll do it the right way.

Glock 19

 

[IndyColtsFan]

S&W Sigma 9mm. Not impressed. "Traded" it to my old man for a Series 70 1911 Government. I say "traded" because it was in no way an even trade and was basically a gift.
