Well aren't you just full of surprises!

 

[jeremy]

226 in .357 sig

Dang it! I thought I was the only one in the state with one!

 

[jeremy]

I'll have to say Sig 226 chambered in .357Sig. Nice weight in your hand.

 

[IUGradStudent]

Glock 19. A good 4" .44 would probably be 2nd

 

[JByer323]

Either a Super Blackhawk in .44 mag, or a Super Blackhawk converted to .45 Colt, the latter being my first choice.

 

[John Galt]

First choice is a Wilson .45, close second is Glock 19.

 

[paulgl26]

glock 32

 

[duboismd]

1911. Preferably Smith and Wesson or Springfield. XDSC9 is second choice.

 

[AWGlock]

glock 19

Since there has been mention of hunting as well as defense and I don't own a magnum right now. I would have to say the gun I do have that I would turn to first is my CZ-52.

Using hp ammo would allow me to hunt and ball ammo would allow me to to shoot through most common items including class 3 body armor.

Actually, I do only have one handgun. I was limited financially to just one, and I think I have the best. A Glock 19. I've not gotten to practice in a long while however, but I think I'll be getting back to the range for a session very soon.

 

[deadsquirrel]

glock 23!

Soundslikejosh has provided some good wisdom. I've personally had pretty much every type of handgun at this point. I'm a 1911 45acp fan for personal defense, however, if I were limited to only one handgun it would probably be a 4 or 6 inch 357 mag S&W 686. The 4" is as close to a one gun for all purposes as possible. Shoot 38 specials for practice and plinking...357 mag for defense and hunting.

 

[Mike F]

Kimber or Ed Brown 1911.

 

[elaw555]

Ruger Mk III

 

[cop car]

One gun, forever and ever? Ordinarily, I'd join the Glocklove bandwagon, but one gun forever... 4" .357 SA/DA revolver. Fewer parts to go sour on you, coupled with the fact that the learning curve on a revolver is non-existant compared to a auto puts it on top in my book. I only have to say point it that way and start pulling the trigger, and anyone can operate it.
