All of us have a favorite handgun to shoot at the range? Out of all the ones you have, what is it?

I love shooting all my guns, especially my 1911s so I don't really have a favorite. If there was one special one though, it's probably this one. I shoot primarily in an indoor range so whenever I shoot it, the blast rattles all the booths and definitely gets the attention of all the other shooters, especially for the ones shooting in the booths on either side of me 😆

That is a toss-up some days, but I love my Ruger P345 most of all.
*I do not have quite the collection most of you have but my P345 still is my all-time favorite shooter.
*Just started to get acquainted with semi autos a decade ago and still learning. Anything rimfire is a joy for me as well.

It depends. But some version of the SIG 210 would be a top contender for me. I would pick something else for carry, competition or most any other use, but for a relaxing afternoon at the range putting holes in paper, the 210s would be among my favorites.

My Px4 compact. It just points natural for me, has a good trigger, and recoils like a larger and heavier gun, without being larger and heavier.

Funny, I am actually thinking of getting mp pc as my second, home defense, gun.
My mp shield plus just came in, but I have another gun buy permit to burn.

Absolutely no doubt in my mind.....Sig Sauer P365 in 380....with the X-grip. And as a bonus- I can carry it!

Can you post up a pic to show it with the X Grip?

Sorry Ship- I saw your request, but was being rushed out the door. I'm back now- will try to post a pic below-

Both guns are identical in size. The 9mm weighs about 2.1 oz more.

Thanks,

Is that gun any smaller than the S&W Shield? About the same size, right?

I don't think I even have a favorite gun period.

My favorite pistol to shoot to
was my S&W 629 w/ 8 3/8 barrel shooting reduced 240gr. lead bullets. Until I had to replace the barrel and they do not make the 8 3/8 anymore. Really miss that combo. The 6 in. just does not cut it.

That's something I had one with an 8 3/8 ths barrel too. I put so many rounds out of that gun that I wore out the forcing cone. I replaced mine with a 4 inch barrel. Back then it was my favorite pistol to shoot. That was when I didn't have too many other guns. Now that I have quite a few guns of different calibers it's hard for me to pick a favorite. But right off the top of my head I'd have to pick my CZ 97 B in 45 ACP or my CZ Shadow 2 in 9mm. Both DA/SA semi auto's. Who knows I could pick a different gun(s) tomorrow.
