Hahaha, how bout 1?
HK USP .45, that's all i got. Why? It works, won't jam, and most likely won't ever break considering .45's are $12+/box and I'm usually broke! |

- Not surprised that HKs and Sigs made such a strong showing.
- Surprised the HK P7 made it so late. - Surprised at the weak Glock showing. - Surprised there aren't more 1911s listed. - Glad to see the KelTec - Glad BostonTerrier extended it to wheel guns (my oversight). Any others lists? |

Ok...I'll take a stab, with the disclaimer that my answer may change tomorrow! The parentheses are WHY, as requested by the poster of the thread.
1) Larry Vickers Special Springfield 1911 in .45acp (simply the best) 2) Les Baer ThunderRanch Special Presentation Model (hey, this is fantasy...so I'll add the $3,000 fancy engraving) 3) Pre World War II German Luger 9mm Navy model (the most beautiful killing machine ever designed) 4) Any of Bob Munden's Colt revolvers in .45LC (he is the finest single-action revolver gunsmith around) 5) Ruger .454 Casull (that is one bad MF) 6) Desert Eagle Super .50 Magnum (also a bad, bad mutha) 7) H&K USP Expert .45acp (not only an H&K, but an extremely accurate one too...in my favorite defense caliber) 8) Sig Sauer P210 9mm (very classic, accurate, sexy, and expensive 9mm) 9) Ed Brown 1911 .22 conversion (hell, I don't even know if he makes one, but that would be one fine .22 plinker in my favorite style...the 1911) 10) Smith and Wesson Model 19-3 blued with 2.25" barrel (quite possibly my favorite double-action revolver, and I don't even own one in blued condition!!! Still looking for a good one...) BONUS TRACK 11) Any handgun given to me free. |

1. Burns "Best Grade" 1911, set up for .45 Super -
Shoots .45 ACP as well, and if you're gonna have a 1911 it may as well be one of the best. 2. Glock 22 with additional G17 barrel and mags - a rugged general purpose gun that can be converted to fire either common round 3. S&W 686+ - for .38 Spl as well, with target length barrel and scope mount 4. S&W .44 Mag - for .44 Spl as well, configured as above 5. Ruger Bisley in .45 Colt - because they make a gorgeous SA revolver, and .45 Colt is cool 6. Ruger Single Six with both .22LR and .22WMR cylinders - to shoot all kinds of .22 7. S&W Airweight .38 +P - for CCW 8. Browning HP - because it's a classic 9. Desert Eagle in .50AE - in case I'm attacked by small-block Chevy engines 10. SIG P220 - not a big fan of SIGs but it'd be nice to have one. I was going to say a Savage Striker or Remington XP100 in .308, or maybe a Professional Ordnance AR pistol, but those aren't *really* pistols. |

The Following List would go in the second gun safe. 1) S&W Titanium .22WMR Revolver.(Mod#?) 2) Ruger Mark II 22/45 3) Browning Buckmark Feild 5.5" Heavy Barrel 4) Colt Gold Cup 5) Kimber Pro Carry 6) Savage striker in .260rem 7) Springfield XD in .40s&w 8) Gaurdian 380 9) Kel_tec p-9 10) Khar p-9 Third safe will come up later  |

10! I can name that list in 5!
45acp: 1911A1, stock model. Target models too tight for combat 9 MM: Beretta 92F (best ergonomics, best shooter imho)**fitted for silencer 22LR: Ruger MKII w/ Silenced Bull Barrel 32 ACP: Keltec P32 (for high concealability in suit or shorts Any SAA copy in 357/38 That's it. I've got the major calibers covered for ammo availability. I've got size & concealability covered. I've got covert [silenced] 22LR. I would have trouble deciding whether to strap on the 45 or the 9.. I like them both. The 45 is stronger close in, the 92 will make a long shot a little better. Decisions, decisions...If I'm late for the battle you'll know why. I just couldn't decide what to wear. ps: Now try to limit yourself to only 30 holsters for those 10 pistols! |

Is this a gun collection or pieces you actually shoot and are good with? I shoot around 10,000 pistol rounds per year. I don't believe you can divide that total into 10 different pistols and be proficient with each. Pick a pistol that works in a a major caliber. Practice with it until manipulation is second nature. Buy another just like it for a backup in case your number one gun breaks.
Maybe a smaller gun for a bug. But 10 pistols? This is not an "ultimate battery". It is a safe queen collection. It is a gee whiz look what I've got, gosh golly collection. What is being accomplished here, besides keeping gun manufacturers happy? We don't need more weapons. We need more proficiency and training with the ones we own.

I have a few handguns I bought ONLY because they are "neat" or "gee whiz"..(1892 ordinance revolver,or Nagant gas seal anyone?)
Anyhow, the "ten" 1- S&W "Triplelock" in .44 special 2- S&W 38/44 HD, preferably early production. 3- M-1905 Colt Browning in .45 4- M-1910 Colt Browning in .45 5- Mk VI Webley, Officers version. 6- Walther "AP" in 7.65 Luger. 7- Mauser 714, with stock/holster 8- Glock 18. 9- Stechkin APS. and the last, which will surely bring all kinds of questions about my sanity.. 10- "Papa" Nambu, with stock/holster and spares..

He doesn't mean he doesn't know how to shoot. Just, to use your analogy, just because you have a high performance car doesn't mean you have to go out on the drag every Saturday night and race, or ever really meet the performance limits of the car. I like my guns. I enjoy shooting them. I have no interest in becoming a competition shooter. I have no interest in being a mall ninja. I shoot just fine, and to the level of proficiency I care to shoot at. That doesn't make me less of a man than Tubbs. |

I'd say I'm better than average, but I am at the point where dramatic improvement in shooting skills would require a substantial investment of time, which is something I'm short on. Besides, what's the point? I don't plan to compete and I don't work in law enforcement, so I feel that putting a lot of effort into honing easily-lost skills to no purpose is wasted effort. More to the point, I'm interested in collecting a wide variety of guns, which would preclude choosing one as a "favorite" to practice with to get really good. |
