Favorite gun? They're all my favorite!
I've said it a thousand times here and I keep proving it's true: I'm cheap. You'll see. But there's not a clinker in the bunch, despite their modest price.
Norinco 1911. Someone spiffed this up with a match barrel and a heavy spring, and added Pachmayrs and some kind of major night sight. The sights are so bright it's like I'm in a science fiction movie when I open the bedside drawer in the dark and it's glowing inside... If I have a favorite gun, this is it.
Hi-Point 45. I heard you laugh!
Some people make fun of Hi-Point because they're cheap and so butt ugly. But it's what I use when I'm throwing mass quantities of lead downrange. I don't have any complaints about this gun, it's a blast. But it is ugly, even a mother would have to admit that.
Rossi 38 Special. This is the gun I sleep with. I really like its stainless easy care. The Pachmayr-like grip is a comfy touch. This was the first gun my dog ever heard, and the poor thing pissed herself. To this day she tries to crawl into bed with us when kids are setting off fireworks around July 4th. I guess she'll never go hunting with me.
38 Special. I put the pink ivory grips on this when I gave it to my wife.
Bersa 380. This is my carry gun. Small as it is, it's still a little big for me to carry; sticks out of my pocket.
I wonder if anyone makes a 10mm derringer?
That's it for handguns. My brother just bought a little Kel-Tec 380 that's just sweet as pie. I'm thinking about trying to track one of those down for myself, it's small and light, you could carry it as easily as your keys. With a nasty enough round it'd probably make the BGs cry, cry, cry.
