Any list without a Sig P2xx series isn't a serious list...

Any list without a Sig P2xx series isn't a serious list...

At least not a serious list that is also practical.

I guess I'll call this Part 2.

I think it's safe to say that KKG's a S&W kinda guy.

1. Thompson/Center Arms Contender. Last time I counted, I had 47 different barrels for it. Don't have so many now, but more than I'll ever live long enough to shoot. A few barrels that come to mind are chambered for the .14 Flea, the 7mm Super Mag and the .270 REN.
2. Thompson/Center Arms Encore. Mine is chambered in what J.D. Jones calls his .50-70-750. It uses full-size .50-70 cases but is set up with a 1 in 10" twist rate and is designed to shoot 750 grain bullets. Mine has a 13" barrel. The huge muzzle brake is essential. It's fun!
3. .41 Magnum Ruger Redhawk.
4. Ruger Security Six. An under-appreciated gun.
5. Any 1911.
6. Colt Mustang Pocketlite. My normal carry gun..
7. Remington XP-100. Mine is set up with interchangeable 15" shrouded barrels chambered in everything from .264 Winchester Magnum to .458 Winchester Magnum and everything in between. Huge muzzle brake, of course.
8. Smith & Wesson Model 57 (.41 Magnum), with which I took my first deer. Of course, the model 29 would work, too.
9. Schultz & Larsen 7 X 61, kinda the forerunner to the 7mm Remington Magnum.
10. Pretty much anything chambered for a weird cartridge with handguns preferred, but also rifles.

My list of enjoyable pistols, in no particular order of preference:

Hk P7
Walther P99
Luger P08
S&W model 41
Ruger magnum revolver
CZ75
newer Glock
Ruger Mark 22lr
1911, any flavor
Sig P210

 

[MountainBear]

Well, I suppose I should play, although I'm not sure I need ten handguns. This is in no particular order and some are fairly vague.

1. 1911, any brand, any flavor, in .45acp
2. Glock, any size, any caliber
3. S&W Model 36 (or some other j-frame)
4. S&W Model 27
5. S&W Model 19
6. S&W Model 29 (or 629 if stainless suits you)
7. CZ-75
8. Luger
9. Ruger .22 (mk. I, II, III, IV)

10. I guess you could populate this spot with a Sig, Browning HiPower, S&W M&P, S&W Model 17, Ruger Redhawk, GP-100, or any number of other deserving entrants.

I could have easily had a top 30 list on rifles, but I could barely find 10 pistols.

It's a weird thing how collections change. There was a time that 90% of my collection were pistols. Now it's opposite and I can barely care enough to populate a top-ten list...

Ruger Blackhawk .357
Ruger Blackhawk 45 colt
Walther PPQ
