All depends on what i'm needing it for????

For indoor competition, i used my High Standard Military Victor 22lr.. Right out of the box i won a ton of matches with it! I didn't even have to ajust the trigger!!!

For self defence, i've always liked a S&W M-19 in 357 magnum, or my S&W M-19 in 44 special..

For hunting and as a back up camp gun, i've put a lot of meat in my freezer with a S&W M-29 in 44 magnum..

When running a trap line, a S&W M-18 does nicely.

I have other guns for other reasons too...

I'm not a pistol afficionado (I do carry), and I don't have a significant collection. However, I can be somewhat picky, and I always like to shop around and compare different makes and models. The two main features I look for in a handgun are price (I like to keep it below $500) and reliability.

When it comes to revolvers, I prefer Ruger. For pistols I tend to go for Springfields.

For self defence> RUGER 9mm
For hunting revolver> Ruger Red Hawk .44mag
For plinking> Ruger .22
For side arm in Muzzle season> Ruger .45 BP
Any other time> Ruger
