    Pretty tough to pick just one. I love shooting my Ruger mk II target, it always seems to find it's way into my range bag. My gp100 does almost as often too. I have lots of favorites though.

    I have shot the 10 mm version ,very shooter since I don't reload I have opted for the 45 ACP . I was surprised at how well the pistol managed the recoil. I had a 10 fullsize glock and I got rid of it because I did not like the recoil. Grand Power has a nice rotating barrel setup that really mages recoil well. It's like cheating when you shoot the 9mm versions recoil is just soft.

    Definitely my Glock 17 Gen5 LE

    My Glock 17 Gen 4 was my first Glock and I instantly fell in love with it and there wasn't anything that I didn't like about it, then I shot the Gen 5 with that much-improved trigger reset and haven't shot my Gen 4 since. The Gen 5 has decreased my follow up shots and tighten my groups, but I do miss the finger grooves, have to admit that.

    When I started in law enforcement in 1989, I knew a couple of old timers that had carried Hi-Powers as BUGs to their six shooters....

    It is too bad they stopped making that firearm.

    ^^^All this!^^^

    It's so hard to pick just one. I can say that everyone I introduced to shooting, started off on my MKII Target. They all still love shooting. It's just plain fun to shoot.

    My Plain Jane cheapo Rock Island GI .45 is also at the top of my list. It goes bang every time, and the boolets hit where you aim it.

    I'll bet! Probably because their department didn't allow "bottom feeders" as duty arms!

    Do it! It is worth the $$$. Fantastic gun whether you're using it for competition, range/target, or home defense. Definitely on the heavy side for concealed carry, but excels everywhere else IMO.
