What are your favorite hammer-fired compact pistols....

[armoredman]

CZ PCR. Fantastic pistol.

 

[JeeperCreeper]

CZ75
Beretta 8000

 

[JDR]

Ones I own personally are a SIG P6, P239 SAS Gen2, P228, M11-A1, HK P2000, Ruger SR1911 Commander length, and a CZ P-01

 

[420Stainless]

P30SK for me.

 

[RETG]

P30SK....Carry it everyday unless hiking out in wild, then it is a .40 Beretta PX.

 

[.455_Hunter]

Since I don't really do strikers, that list is pretty long.

For years the Les Baer "Stinger" (CCO) in .45ACP:



Now, the HK P2000 V1 LEM in 357SIG:

For just 99 dollars, the Remington RM380 has to be pretty high up on the smile/cash ratio scale:

I have to give the nod to my Sig 238. Reliable, a pleasure to shoot, and carries so easily, I've forgotten it was there.

My runner up is my Mauser HSc. I love that thing! It gives over 100fps more velocity than the 238 with the same ammo, and I don't mind at all the blowback style recoil. (Snappy)
But with the euro style heel mag release, and the backwards safety, it'll never again be in my #1 spot.

 

[C0untZer0]

I also like the Rohrbaugh R9 - not because its fun to shoot, because it is not fun to shoot, but because it disappears in a front pocket, and it is light enough that I can carry it every day in business or business casual attire.

I found this in a cracker jack box, but it works for me.

Where are they 99 dollars?

We must shop in way different grocery stores as I have never found a prize like that in any box of Cracker Jack I ever had!

 

[someguy2800]

Well it is hammer fired and compact...

Of the hammer-fired pistols I own it would be the SIG P229 if we are calling that "compact". I consider it more to be a mid-size pistol. Second place would go to by Beretta mini-Cougar 8040F and third place to my Beretta mini-Cougar 8000D, but again, I consider those to be mid-sized by today's criteria.

Of the hammer-fired pistols I own that I would consider to be truly compact, my favorite is my SIG P250 subcompact.

I was thinking the same thing about my guns but then I figured most of them (like the Combat Commander, Commander, P229, and P01), were smaller versions of a full size gun so that qualified them as being compact.

P30SK with a LEM trigger.

SIG P938. All Day, Every Day.

I have had the Colt Officer ACP, nice gun, and I have the Beretta 70s, my favorite 22. pistol.

Another P30sk guy.

And my Beretta 84f.

The Colt Officers Model ACP has been a solid performer fro quite some time with a definite preference for 185 gr. loads. Typically you will find the Beretta Model 70S in my bag on nearly every trip I make to the range. Part plinker, part target gun and all fun!
