What handguns do you currently own?

Mostly revolvers and semi autos with a couple of single shots thrown in for good measure.

Out of those, most are designed to shoot cartridge ammo with a few being BP. I think one or two of the old timers actually used BP in brass cases as well, just to show their versatility. But they're oldtimers... (might be fun to load some .38 spls or .45 Colts w/ BP and shoot out of a newer snubbie at night tho')

Tho' there are a couple of paintball, er... marker CO2 thingies for grins and snickers. But they don't really count.
 
I currently have 2 handguns one is a RIA 1911 A-1 .45 & the other is a Sig P223/P6.I have plans to get a new gun as soon as I can save up enough money.
 
I know very little about HK's, outside of the fact that they are well-regarded. What's their most popular 9mm? And you think P2000sk is the best carry gun made...why? Is it easy to conceal? Really reliable? All of the above?

The most popular 9mm HK is hard to say. The P7 is the "cult" member of the bunch and certainly has it's admirers. The USP may be the most common and is incredibly reliable and robust. The USP is available in a number of model permutations tailored to your exact need. The P2000 series improved on the USP perfection. The new P30 (which I don't own...yet), is a further refinement. The P30 has a grip that just feels perfect and may prove to be the most popular in the future.

The P2000sk is a good size for concealment. It is way more accurate than you'd expect. The controls are where you want them. As with all poly HKs you get your choice of triggers. Recoil is lighter than it should be. HK really excels ar reducing recoil well. The pistol is unstoppable and feels that way. It simply doesn't hesitate to work...ever. That's the main reason it like it. I have great confidence in my P2000sk

I might be...I have no idea who that is. :)

There are so many people on here with more guns that I will ever have, so as long as I have guns that fit my very specific tastes and I have one for every use I can think of I am happy. :)
 
My tin foil anteni is telling me we are being watched:eek: and as for that, not enough owned and I willnever own enough.:cool:
 
I did own some guns until the accident. I took them sailing with me on the Mon River one summer for a leisurely cruise. They enjoy going out and doing that. I was not paying attention, distracted by a Crane flying over and creamed right into a Coal Barge. Down they went, I was lucky enough to save my Autographed photo of Charlton Heston though.

More than some people, far less than other. Not nearly as many as I would like.

How long does it take you guys to build up a collection this size? Over a decade at least, right?

You should be a sales person for HK. You make me want to buy one of these.

Looks like a fairly large collection to me. I probably am sort of naive about how much some guys have, however.
 
Yes, I guess if you look at having 9 guns as being a large collection, but I know people who have 20 or more handguns plus a passel of long guns too. I would have more too, but here is a list of those I got rid of (and regret doing so):

Colt Service Ace .22 1911 auto pistol
High Standard 9 shot .22 caliber revolver
Dan Wesson 6" .357 Magnum Revolver with interchangeable barrels
Ruger Blackhawk in .45 Colt / .45 ACP convertible revolver
Astra Constable .380 ACP automatic pistol
Walther P22 .22 LR Automatic pistol
Beretta Model 70s .380 automatic pistol
Colt Agent .38 special revolver (not really rid of, my wife has it so it's gone to me.)

Oh what mistakes we make in our youth. :(
 
What's your favorite revolver, and what's your favorite semiautomatic of the collection?
