Top handguns in your opinion?

[cmgee67]

My favorite handguns to shoot is a toss up of my S&W 686-1 with a 4” barrel or my S&W 66-3 with a 2 1/2” barrel.

The 686 is on my list of must haves. I think it’s the best looking gun S&W makes....

Excluding 1911s


My favorite hand guns to shoot are SA revolvers like my Ruger vaquero in 357 mag. My favorite carry guns are my 45 shield and glocks. I say glocks because a Glock is a Glock lol.

I don’t really believe there is a Top handgun because that’s only based on opinion but what do y’all say.

I say a S&W revolver!

My favorite carry gun is my SP2022. It isn’t my best shooting semi, but it just feels right on the draw, and fits perfectly in the hand.

My favorite range gun is my Python. It is smooth as silk.

If I had one it would be my favorite, too!

1911's would top both categories, IMHO, but excluding that best choice, here goes.

Best Carry = CZ SDP from their custom shop (or a Sig P938 if you need something really small)

Best Range (or bedside) Gun = Sig P226 X5

What don't you like about the Schwartz setup?

I've owned a few Kimbers (still have one) and each of them had timing issues with the disengagement of the schwartz that needed fixing before the guns could be carried. Maybe it's not so much that it has a schwartz safety, but more that the execution was poor on the initial build. SO if they don't get it right (repeatedly) from the factory, I don't trust them.

I believe the same result can be accomplished with the firing pin/spring combo. And that doesn't endanger the user in a SD situation where a "perfect grip" may not happen on the draw. And if I drop it off a 2nd story rooftop and it discharges, then I can die peacefully knowing the planets aligned and the Lord called me home.

I agree about the Python and mine stays in the safe although it was my dad's carry gun.

Whichever one I am fondling at the time.

For Competition:
STI like pistols. 2011 frames and great SA at 3.5 lbs.
Second Choice, CZ Target Sport 5.25" long barrel. SA.
Canik TP9SFX if you want something excellent for less than $600.

For Carry, there are 4 classes:
Full Size: 1911 9mm or 45 ACP user preference.
Compact: HK VP9
Sub Compact: Not sure, too many options.
Pocket, 9mm single stack, SW Shield from Performance Center is good choice.

Out of every handgun I have owned I would say the HK’s were the best. The German guns always have great ergonomics and are very accurate. Just do fun let me list the manufacturers I own or have owned that I can remember (just realized I’ve never owned a Remington handgun):
STI
H&K
Sig Sauer
Taurus
Freedom alarms
Beretta
S&W
Kahr
Dan Wesson
Glock
FN
Para Ordnance
Kel-Tec
Excel Arms
Magnum Research
Ruger
Springfield Armory
Colt
Steyr
Canik
North American Arms
Thompson Center

Nothing shouts 'criminal' as loudly as a neck tattoo.

Johnnie Langendorff was one of the two men who helped catch the man who shot the people at the church in Sutherland Springs and his neck is covered in tattoos. He didn’t have to help but he chose to because it was the right thing. Thomas Yoxall also had his neck covered in tats but that didn’t stop him from saving that trooper in Arizona again because it was the right thing to do. We base our judgement too much off of physical appereances. Look at Americas most prolific serial killers. Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, Dennis Rader aka the BTK killer, John Wayne Gacy, and Ed Gein just among a few. The majority of our worse killers were well respected people who were clean cut and dressed nice. Some even held honorable titles, and no I don’t have any neck tattoos. I do however have tattoos on my arms back and one of my legs from the Marine Corps. What I’m getting at is far too often we judge by the outside and we might miss what matters most on the inside.

Not trying to steal the thread or anything. I just hate when people judge solely based off of appearances.
