erraticMay sound weird but the gen1 Ruger LCP .380 has become the family gun. Not sure why we all gravitated to the ugly little pistol, but there's quite a LCP collection at family reunions.

sigarms229Well my best shooting would be my P210A but if it would be one pistol that I wouldn't feel "under armed" with it's my 1989 era P220 in .45acp.
I had it out last week and it just impresses me.

DanHI've really been bit by the 2011 bug, but thankfully I'm so broke right now I can't buy any.

SigSentryIt's been about 14 years since I picked up my first handgun. The shop had 2 German SP2022s and shortly after the first one, I returned to snagged the other one for some reason. I'm by no means as proficient as I wish to be with it, it definitely keeps me honest and improving. It probably also kept me from chasing HKs although I have acquired classic p-series SIGs when the opportunity presented itself but my first can be considered "my gun".

SigSauerP226I’d have to go with my P226, circa 2008ish, in .40. Have around 5k through it and it’s still just one of those guns you pick up and everything feels right and seem to hit whatever I aim at. It was also my 21st bday present to myself and the one gun I can’t imagine ever selling.

landownerAt the risk of being too predictable: P320 Nitron Compact.

Larry_KMy old answer would've been cz75b. But the last few years it's been my Springfield XD-mod2 4" with a PRP trigger kit installed in it. Not pretty but it feels natural in my hand and seems to just shoot where I want it to.

ArtieSSo, which is your favorite child?
I trust my life to a SIG 229 .40.
I shoot a SIG GSR Compact 1911 in .45 ACP the best.
My 9mm of choice is the SigPro 2022, which I think is the finest polymer pistol available.
I carry a 4" 629 in the woods.
I'm not sure how much this helps, but it's why I own a bunch of guns.

texassierraMy "go to" for carry the last several years has been a P229 SAS 357 Sig. It's the perfect carry gun for me.

Rob DeckerI went from the P229 Legion to the P320/MS Compact and bought a P365 as a backup gun. Then the XL came out and I switched to the P365XL/MS.
Before I found that thing I thought carrying a gun the size of a PPK was a James Bond cosplay. Then it turned into my Hero Gun. I shoot that better than I shoot anything in my safe other than the race guns, and they're only practical for racing.
