My EDC is a S&W 4513TSW. The original variant with 6-round mag and no stupid bolt on rail. It has been 100% reliable through 6k rounds. Great trigger, very accurate.

Sometimes, on the rare occasions it is not practical to carry it, I replace it with a S&W CS9 wearing Big Dog grips. So small I can pocket carry it in a DeSantis Nemesis.

Great pistols, that S&W use to make.

Favorite to carry Ruger LCP. Favorite to shoot Browning Buckmark.

My CZ-75 Compact and PO1.

Next week when it arrives at the FFL (gun store), it will be the 1994 Sig P228.

Agree with some other smart and discriminating folks-the Smith Model 6906.

[NorthBorder]

Kimber Micro 9. Just bought it yesterday and took it out for a few magazines for function fire and to get an idea how it handles. I love this gun.

 

[Old Dog]

W. German SIG P-228, S&W 3913/4, SIG P-938 Extreme, S&W M&P-9 Compact 2.0, Colt LW Commander, CZ-75 Compact, SIG P-225A1, when the dog bites, when the bee stings, these are a few of my favorite things ...

 

[Jeb Stuart]

Phoenix hp22a for a ton of inexpensive fun. There is no gun on the market which has a better smile/cash ratio.

You got that right!! I own two of them. Fantastic fun and make a great trainer for short barrel pistols.

It was no surprise to me that Guntest gave it a A rating.

 

[Robbins290]

sig P239 and S&W 6906

 

[Whiterook808]

PPk/S

 

[michaelc246]

Love the Sig P229... I've always just shot it well.

 

[Fine Figure of a Man]

Walther PP in 32, the only compact hammer fired pistol I have.

 

[littlelefty]

Baby Rock

 

[Winkman822]

Sig Sauer P228; Sig Sauer P229; Sig Sauer P245; HK P2000 LEM; HK P30SK LEM...and at the top of the list Wilson Combat CQB Compact.

 

[bnolsen]

Bersa Thunder 9UC Pro and CZ P07.

The UC9 has the best trigger on ANY semi-auto hammer fired pistol I ever had the pleasure of pulling. Simply amazing.

The bersa tprc is supposed to have an even better trigger. I might be tempted to get one but those mag prices...

 

[Ignition Override]

All of my handguns for fun! No gun is favorite. All guns make good time.

Sig 228 (seldom-used, new collector), P225 and P6. All of these were proofed in Kiel Germany. Somebody replaced the P6's hammer spring. Its DA pull is decent- feels just like the 225.
CZ PO1 and a brand-new CZ 75 D Compact 'PCR'.

Carry: the only reason I carry one of these CZs is to avoid excess wear on any of the Sigs. Would never consider carrying the pristine P228.

 

[SARuger]

I carry a old LC9 that is reliable as the sun, tough as an anvil, and shoots way better than I can.

 

[SharpDog]

Sig p229 / M11A1:
