What are the two funnest types of handguns?

[Smaug]

(I used the word "funnest" to troll people into this fun thread.)

You get two votes.

Let's see what the honeys of our little handgun world are!

My current favorites are:

• Big bore DA revolver (5" 45 ACP S&W 625)
• Small bore automatic (6-7/8" 22LR Ruger Mk. II Target)

 

[Bazoo]

Big bore single actions and 22s.

For me it’s Ruger blackhawks and single sixes.

 

[doubleh]

+1 to the above.

 

[.308 Norma]

• Big bore DA revolver (Taurus 41 Mag)
• Small bore auto (Glock G44 .22LR)

 

[CoalCrackerAl]

I chose big bore S/A. My SBH 44 mag and SW 25 45 Colt.I shot the 25 in S/A. Medium semi autos. My 1911 9mm's and 38 super.

 

[The_Quartermaster]

For range toy use only? Ruger GP100 and a well made 1911.

Nope, overall two favorites; not just for range use.

For example, in my case, I chose big bore DA revolvers and small bore autos. I don't carry either of them; I carry a medium bore revolver or auto, but they are not my favorites. This is about what you LIKE, not necessarily what is best for any single job.

Oh, that case then...

-G45 MOS w/RMR Type 2 6.5
-Sig P320 C .45 ACP Nitro, stock only

They're both easily my most accurate pistols, and as they say only accurate guns are interesting. It's definitely true.

The only way this will work, is if its a daily poll.

Today Ill go with big bore DA revolver, and medium bore auto. At least thats today's favorite and what Im shooting today.

Haha, you can't even commit to a month?!

 

[trackskippy]

Hell no!

 

[doubleh]

Cross off the 44 mag and I am good thru 45 Colt but kind of prefer light loads with it. Wrist doesn't like a lot of rough treatment anymore.

 

[UncleEd]

OK, I voted.

And my choices are the correct ones.

Anyone who voted otherwise is an idiot.

 

[.38 Special]

I voted for the big bore revolvers, but almost want to to change my DA choice: S&W's Model 27 is such a perfect thing...

 

[black mamba]

I voted for big bore DA revolver, plus other: anything with a laser on it. Love being able to shoot from any position just looking at the target. To my thinking almost essential on a defensive pistol.

 

[Varminterror]

22LR Target Style semiauto pistols. No wasted time in reloading like a single action revolver, easier to shoot than a DA revolver, still very affordable, affordable ammo, low recoil, low report, great velocity and capabilities, an entire afternoon of fun for $25-50, fantastic training tool for fundamentals, versatile host for irons, red dots, or scopes…

There is no firearm in the world I enjoy more than, or nearly as much as, a target style 22LR semiauto pistol, such as the Ruger Mark Series, Browning Buckmark, S&W Victory or 41, Beretta U22 Neos…

 

[bannockburn]

I went with:

Big Bore-Single Action-Ruger Vaquero .45 Colt

Medium bore-Single Action-Browning Hi-Power 9mm.

 

[Y-T71]

I voted medium bore DA revolver, I really enjoy shooting lighter .38spl reloads through my 4" Security Six.
I could do that all day long.

I wanted to vote for large bore SA revolvers as well because of my new Taylor's Smoke Wagon in .45 Colt because I'm sure I'll love it but since I haven't been able to shoot it yet I didn't vote for it.

 

[tommy.duncan]

I voted 22 auto and 41+ revolver.

I love shooting my Mark II and big bore revolvers and (.44 & .45)!!

 

[GarrettJ]

Poll fail.
You forgot full auto handguns.

 

[bangswitch]

Big bore DA revolvers M57, M58, M29-2, M25-5
Medium bore semiautos 10mm Auto 1911, .45 Auto 1911 (well, it's a big bore, but whatever)

 

[Pat Riot]

This week….
My favorites are:

Big bore DA revolver: S&W model 25-15



Small bore automatic: Kel Tec CP33

 

[Tallball]

Big bore SA revolver and big bore DA revolver, of course.

Those are the most fun.

 

[CDW4ME]

Fun: providing entertainment, amusement or enjoyment.

Hitting the target quickly & accurately is enjoyable and my RDS equipped Glock 34.5 and 22.5 allow me to to that.
I voted medium and big bore since 40 S&W starts with a "4" and is the same diameter as 10mm it is deductively "big bore".
