I'm more of a long gun guy, but over the past 5 years or so been getting into revolvers. My first handgun was a Glock G35 , it was ok, really don't shoot it much as it's snappy and unforgiving for a novice shooter. I then purchased a more researched specific Springfield RO 1911 in 9mm and this got me on the right track to more happy and accurate shooting. I then got my first revolver and I jumped right into the deep end by buying a S&W 12" 460XVR . Took me a while to learn to shoot it well. Added a scope and now I can ring a 14x16 steel gong at 200 meters. LOVE that 460 and I always have a crowd gather around after I send a few rounds downrange. I've recently been looking for a more tame plinker and found a super clean used Ruger GP100 in 357 mag. Did some research and seems the GP100's are a rock solid reliable shooter. I shot about 60 rounds a few days ago and I am totally impressed , very fun and accurate shooter. I picked up some Black Hills 158 gr hp's and shot about 3" groups at 25 yds off a rest which is very good for me being a novice with pistols. Safe to say my semi's are moving to the back of the safe in favor of my old skool' 6 shooters ...
