Of the handguns that you own or have owned in the past, which is your favorite? Not necessarily your best, fanciest, most tacti-cool or expensive- the one you love. Also why is it your favorite? Stories and pictures encouraged!
Mine is one many of you have seen before- my custom Cimarron Richards-Mason Conversion in .38 Special. My darling wife bought it for me for Christmas one year as a 'cowboy gun' I could actually afford to shoot (.45 Colt had become prohibitively expensive.) Eventually I got the notion to bob the barrel and give it a 'bird's-head handle... and did after carefully reassuring myself that spare parts were available (in case I screwed it up!) It was my first serious effort at gun-smithing, and the start of a new hobby. It shoots great and feels wonderful in my hand. Not the most practical gun in the world, but I love it!
