What semi-auto pistol do you shoot best?

[FL-NC]

For fun, a 1911. For getting hits quickly coming out of a holster, Glock 17 or 19. I can do it with a 1911 too, but not as fast and I run out of bangs quicker.

 

[Patocazador]

My Ruger Standard .22 and my Mauser .380 HSC.

My .44 Auto Mag is very accurate but is also VERY LOUD.

 

[Jimbo80]

Sig P229

 

[hdbiker]

Ruger MK1 Target .22, heavy tapered 7 1/2 barrel

 

[CNobbe]

Have quite a few guns I shoot really well, but my old V16 might be the most accurate pistol, but they're all super accurate. This question gets me every time..

 

[md7]

Glock 19 due to shooting mid sized Glocks for so long. But the 1911 is pretty close.

 

[Lo-Profile]

My favorite to shoot is a Dan Wesson Guardian in 9mm.
My on body carry is a Sig Sauer C3 1911.
My EDC work/get home bag holds a Ruger SR9e with 2 extra magazines. Always flawless and very accurate for a cheap gun.

 

[Space Ghost]

Dan Wesson Guardian. (Like Lo-Pro, mine's a 9mm)

Now if we can say anything "pistol" and not just "handgun"... then my AR "pistol".

 

[Jonesy814]

I am mostly a revolver guy, but I shoot my Ruger SR9c the best of my 5 or 6 semi autos

 

[JEBruns]

CZ Shadow 2 Orange. There is a good reason the Shadow 2 is by far the most popular production gun in USPSA. It is a seriously fast, fun and accurate gun.

Kind of funny that the gun in 2nd place is a knock off of the Shadow 2, the Tanfoglio.

[C0untZer0]

The semi-auto I shoot most accurately is my Glock 17L.

The Glock 17L is very soft-shooting, it is a long slide and the mass out front makes recoil negligible. It's polymer framed so it ends up being a fairly light pistol over all. I put a trigger kit in it and only use it for bullseye shooting.

Almost certainly this 1911:

I think I've put new grips on her, so I probably need to take a new picture.

 

[armedwalleye]

Target shooting? 10” Ruger Mk 4 .22 with a red dot.

For carry? Smith and Wesson 6904, my carry gun. Gets range time every time I go and sometimes in the yard in the evenings.

For straight up accuracy and familiarity., either would be the favorite depending on the situation

 

[Hangingrock]

I have been shooting 1911 series pistols since 1964 but as this is written I've accumulated substantial experience with S&W MP9 series.

1911

 

[Jeff62]

Browning Medalist. I like plinking long distance. However, it ain’t practical for carry. That’s what 1911’s are for.

 

[ontarget]

Probably my 1911A1.
I don't shoot much paper after I check up on the sights and accuracy of a new/used gun acquisition. Mostly steel and empty cans after that, and mostly inside 25 yards.
I do love to see the look on others faces when I can manage to ring the 100 yard plate with a Heritage Rough Rider though.

 

[tactikel]

Center fire: my friends 1911 Combat Commander, that single stage trigger and ergonomics are perfect for me.
Rimfire: My Beretta Neos, far more accurate than I can shoot.

 

[JmacD]

At a pretty long distance my bone stock sig 320 ain’t bad. Haven’t got to shoot it since New sights and different grip module

 

[d'zaster]

Ruger MkIII hunter with Volquartsen innards.
Dan Wesson commander classic bob tail .45 ACP - stock
Colt Delta Elite (w various updates)
HK P2000 .40 - stock

 

[Zeabed]

 

[Rio Laxas]

SIG P210-6 in 7.65 Parabellum.



Followed very closely by the same pistol in 9mm.

 

[JR24]

Favorite for shooting? And best for small groups and/or longer range slow fire? The Wilson

But for practical, rapid fire drills or anything in a more SD related area? Typically a Glock 19, it just works for me.

Ruger MK IV Target with Burris Fast Fire III, Volquartson trigger innards, and Hogue rubber thumb rest grips.
