Glock 19 of course, but I just picked up a Glock 48. We'll see if that becomes my favorite after I get some range time with it. I'd like to get my CCW with it eventually.

Re: What is your favorite hand gun?
I love all my handguns equally ... but...
When I first applied and obtained my CPL I knew I was going to conceal carry a Model 38 S&W. I think my choice started with the iconic 1968 Eddie Adams Saigon photo during Vietnam. It is light, has a shrouded hammer, still can be shot single or double action… plus I was able to shoot it well. I bought this (shipped: Oct. 1972) M38 in 1973 and have carried it for 45+ years.
The ‘inexpensive’ knife is very useful, but if lost or stolen would not cause regret/heartburn VS a $400+ Microtech.

Re: What is your favorite hand gun?
I don't have anything nice to look at, but my favorite that I own and have experience with is not my edc, but I really enjoy it is my Canik elite combat. 20rd mags and it just runs. I'm sure I would love a 2011 race gun, but I don't own or have experience with one.

Glock 47 all the way, but the P365 XMacro is a close 2nd.

My 1960s era S&W 36 3" and my Ruger Super Blackhawk Hunter in 41 mag. My T/C Contender with 6.5 TCU barrel is right in there also.

I got one of the 686 3in and one 4in CS-1 that Janet Reno did not destroy. Both very accurate and smooth as silk.

Re: What is your favorite hand gun?
Favorite range toy handgun - CZ Shadow 2 with CGW Pro Kit... Hands down the best shooting handgun I own or have ever owned.
I've shot a friends Staccato race gun and I'm sure that he is faster with it than I am with mine - and with equal time on both he might be faster with the Staccato - but who knows. For me - I'm not enough of a shooter to say that I would do better with his than mine... The gun is much better than I am, a nd candidly, I can't imagine that I'll ever be good enough to say that that gun is the limiting factor on my shooting performance.

Re: What is your favorite hand gun?
I have to admit, I didn't expect to love the IWI Masada I picked up, but damn, that thing is probably my best shooter other than the P320 XFIVE Legion. Everytime I pick up that IWI it just feels good, and shoots the same. I had my eye on getting one for about a year or so, then, suddenly, I found a pawn shop deal and it was too good to pass up, much cheaper than new. I haven't regretted that choice.
