do ya drink the 1911 kool aid? tupperware like glock, hk or xd? wheelguns? or are pistols for zeroes?
sound off like ya got a pair. i've settled on the 92f for some reason, i love the stupid thing. |
|
slide mounted safties suck.(but are acceptable on a mak due to commie coolness factor)
glock, BHP, or CZ for me thanks |
|
I do the Glocks and 1911's. G22 & G17 . Colt series 70 SS & a Springfield WWII model. While the newier stuff is cool and all, I keep going back to John Moses Browning ... WarDawg
|
|
In pistols, I'll take my HK USP Stainless in .40 S&W w/ Factory Night sights.
I revolvers, i love my S&W Mod 25 blue 4". KyARGuy |

I like my pistols the same way i like my rifles...From the Dark Side. I trust my life to the undisputed combat Tupperware-The Almight Glock
|
|
I guess as a SHTF pistol or just all around....the Glock 17 would be hard to beat. It's my first handgun and one of my favorites. I plan to get a Glock 20 so I can dish out 15 rounds of 10mm power.
But I also have a CZ-52, Makarov, and 1911. All of which have their pluses and minuses. I love the size. feel, and quality construction of the Makarov, the power and feel of the 1911, and the 7.62x25mm round the CZ-52 shoots is cool as hell, but all of these only hold 8 rounds and just don't shoot as naturally as the Glock. |

|
Mine is a SA 1911 as well.... |
|
|
Springfield XD40. I will be getting an XD45 when I get my tax refund.
|
|
I've got a Kimber Warrior,2 BHP's,S&W 1917,S&W 29-2 w/6.5" barrel and a 1917 DWM Artillery Luger. Been through a lot of Sigs,Glcoks etc. You can have them. I sold my Tok and Mak to a friend. I miss the mak.

|
Baby eagle 9 mm for me. But I am gonne be buying something new soon....Either a walther p99 or an XD But I still havent made up my mind
|

We hired a mercenary to service the machine gus at the shop I worked at in athens...He said a pistol was useful to shoot back to where you left your rifle.

I remember when we first went into iraq, We were all drawn down on some "sheep herders" about 400 yards out cause they were acting suspicious. There we are about 150 marines on line with rifles aimed in and as I am setting lateral limits for my guys I look down the line and near the other end theres this MORON in the sitting position with his 9 mm (Obviously a staff nco or an officer) pulled resting on his knee aiming in about that time someone else, obviously higher rank or atleast smarter than him ran out and said something to him they both then ran back and took cover behind the convoy. Some people are scared of guns...... I am scared of people |

I would get a Glock if I had the cash for one, probably a 21.

|

My trusty XD 9mm service for CCW/all the time carry. My wife carries a .41Mag snubby. but i also have an IJ70 hi cap, a Mak longslide, and a Bulgy converted to .32NAA as well as a MilTex Arcus (Bulgy copy of the BHP) and a 2 tone Arcus Mak. i'm trying to get a machinist friend of mine to make me a cylinder for a 7.62x25 conversion on a S&W wheel gun project.

I drink the 1911 koolaid, I fought getting one for ever tried most types and finally got one and haven't looked back.
Colt Goldcup AMT Hardballer Longslide 7" barrel Colt compact |
|
The only reason I carry a pistol is to fight my way back to my rifle.
|
|
|
Makarov, CZ-75, Glock 22, and a 1911. If I am pairing ony 1 it would be the CZ.
|
|
Echo that thought pistol is a backup first. |
|
|
Which you never should have put down in the first place!

I gotta sound off for my P226, and i must say, the M9 is in my experience unreliable at best. The military is having terrible problems with them in the sandbox. The army tank brigades have switched over to sig pros. DHS now has sigs, FBI, countless law enforcement agencies, Navy Seals, who by the way according to my best friend (who is in Seal Team 1 Charlie platoon) have had no problems whatsoever with their SIG P226's in the sandbox or even diving with them. Ill take one any day.

General carry is a HK USP .45 fullsize,
for tossing in my pocket or when I need to conceal completely in very hot weather, it's a Colt Detective Special To replace the Detective Special when I'm confident that it will work every time a Kahr CW9. Kahr reccomends 200 rounds to break it in. I've shot about 120 with few that didn't fully seat. Might have been the ammo though. I really like my Ruger GP100 in .357magnum, but I don't carry or shoot it much. And of course the most shot at the range is the Ruger 22/45. Easy to shoot, and cheap to shoot. |

Nice Photos! Mind telling me where you found the HP 7.62x25 for the CZ? |
|
|
Im not the original poster, but Sellier and Bellot makes new production Tokarev ammo - I think they offer hollow point. |

Cole's sells "FNM" marked boxes of 7.62x25mm, but when you open the box, that red primer annulus just shouts "Yugoslavian!" And if you look on the box it says made for] FMN, not by.
I think it's Prvi PArtizan, which is good stuff. |
