i have always been a fan of the Springfield Armory XD for fun or self defence but as far as hunting goes i have just been turned on to the ruger gp100... i have not owned or even shot this gun yet but from the reviews ive read it seems to b a solid gun... i will buying the ruger gp100 shortly
My favorite hand gun is either my TZ99 9mm, Wittness P Compact .45acp. or my Ruger Blackhawk .357mag. It really depends on what Im doing. There is also a Sig P220 .45acp in my future and it will probably put all the rest in the back seat.
I know this is over $650 but this is the best I've shot. HK P7M8 period!
I want to change my vote from the 24/7 to the 92 fs.
I voted for 92FS, but really its the Centurion model I love. Shorter slide and near flush barrel make the gun EXTREMELY balanced and its just as accurate/reliable/<insert popular handgun jargon here> as the fullsize. Too bad they're discontinued.

as far as which one i like to shoot the most...i would go with the 92(also the best looking imo).
as for a carry pistol...
ive recently been converted from Glock 19 to M&P-9.
although im still a Glock fan,i trust it a little more at this point(having been arround alot longer) and prefer the reset...
but i prefer the M&P in every other area,and its been proving very reliable thus far(well over 1000 rounds without a hiccup).
any 1911
Walther P99 A/S in 40 S&W.
The Glock 19 is what I shoot and often carry. Any of the JHP loads from major ammunition companies such as Speer, Remington, Winchester, and Federal should get the job done as a defensive round.

I voted Glock but am also VERY fond of my SIG p-6. It's really unfair for me to cast a vote when I haven't held, shot, or owned all of them (yet.)
\"doggy:
Heckler & Koch USP Compact, P200SK, HK45C

FN/Browning Hi-Power or Commander sized 1911.
I would have to go with the FNP-9. I think it is the best value out there for the money. It's extremely accurate but more importantly it is the most reliable handgun I have ever owned. It will chew any ammo you feed it. Not to mention take down is ridicously simple.
Witness 9mm, XD .45.:mrgreen:
Glock 17 or 22 are my fav's at the moment.
Well, 21 CZ 75 lovers out there can't be all wrong. I shot my CZ 75 B tonight at the range :smt067. I like it more and more every time I shoot it. Tried those "plastic" guns, but no love for me... make mine STEEL please.

Waiting for a used Hi-Power 9mm I bought. Pick it up in a week (live in CA, have waiting periods that will stop a horse :smt076).

Colt 1911's????????:smt1099
I like 1911's, just because. But my CZ-75 is very close behind, as the gun I enjoy shooting most. On the other hand, if I should ever have to defend myself, I want the XD45.
Glock G23 or G19. Plenty of gun to get the job done and still small enough to conceal.
For concealed carry you might want to consider what trigger format you're most comfortable with - single action (SA), carrying cocked and locked; double action/single action (DA/SA); double action only (DAO).
DA/SA and DAO don't require taking the gun off safety before firing. A SA does. If you practice, any of these will work for you, but it's something to consider as you work your way down the decision tree.
