    Either my CZ RAMI or Sig 1911 Ultra. They both fit nice in my hands and I can shoot them accurately. Plus they're easily conceable.

    ... I chose the Hi-Power because the hero in a book series that I read carried one, so I had to have one. Turned out to be a great choice for me.

    ...
    What was the that book series?
    Archie Gates: No unnecessary shots, Conrad, 'cause we know what they do.
    Conrad Vig: Make infected pockets full of bile, sir.
    Archie Gates: That's right, Conrad, that's what they do.

    What was the that book series?
    "They Call Me the Mercenary" by Axel Kilgore (a.k.a. Jerry Ahern) Hank Frost was the character, his was metalifed, I even sent one of my Hi-Powers off to have it done... didn't work after that so I sold it to a friend who swore he could get it to work...

    Loved my Hi-Power, used to shoot it in an indoor IPSC league, would KICK ASS with it... guys would always wonder how I was winning with a "minor" caliber. Just shoot all A's was my reply

    CZ Shadow 2 for me. Use it for USPSA and steel challenge. Very accurate and fits my hand well. Awesome gun and a huge improvement over the G34 I have used for years.

    I’ll second the shadow 2. It is the one gun that I felt actually made me a better shooter just by switching to it. Shot my first ever A level uspsa classifier with it and have consistently shot it better than any other gun I own. I chased the next best thing for years. I haven’t bought a new handgun of any caliber since picking this up earlier this year. It’s that good to me

    I’ve shot just about every wonder 9 on the market as well as shot a 9mm 1911 and then a Glock 34 and a tanfoglio stock 2 in competition and they all get left in the safe at this point and I’ve only been shooting it for a few months.

    I am a CZ and 1911 guy with some Caniks and Glocks as well, but for the last two years my favorites are Grand Power, the Xcaliber, the Q100 striker fired and the Q1S striker fired compact. I am carrying the Q1S every day now since Jun, they are just super easy to double tap very accurate and as far as I am concerned the striker fired trigger is better than any stock setup currently available. the Q100 breaks at 3.86 lbs with the Q1S coming in at 4.1 lbs ,super clean smooth break. The Xcaliber has a 5 inch bull tapered barrel with super smooth hammer DA /SA pull that is competition ready out of the box at $749.00 with adjustable rear sight and fiber optic front. Next for me will be there 45 ACP hammer fired version.

    I've been seriously considering their 10mm offering. I checked out one of the q100's at a local shop last week and it seemed pretty sweet.
