My sentimental favorite would have to be the first duty weapon that I carried as a slick-sleeved police department rookie.  It was a Smith & Wesson Model 66 .357 magnum with a 4-inch barrel.  Nothing like that stainless steel beauty to fight off the elements that it encounters everyday in an open holster.  And yes, I AM an old fart!!

*sigh*

Thanks for the memories!!
I love waking up every morning knowing that Donald Trump is President!!

A few of my favorites. The did something to my last pic.



Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

I just got one that's quick becoming a favorite. Kimber BP Ten II with Night sights. I carried it to church tonight. ;D 14 + 1 rounds of .45 ACP Goodness. It came with two 14 round mags, and one neutered 10 round magazine. I got it used at the gun show yesterday. The barrel was so caked with powder residue it made it look like the rifling was ruined. First thing when I got home, gave it a good cleaning and the bore is in very good shape. I like this gun a lot so far. Carries very comfortably in the Don Hume PCCH IWB holster Which I can also carry my RIA Government model in.

Sentimental all time fave- the Smith and Wesson Model 66 - just like my Uncle Lou carried on the Chicago Police Force.

Current fave, Glock 21.  What can I say, I've been subsumed by the Polymer side of the force.

My XD-40 Tactical, because I shoot it the best and not a single malfunction after 1000s of rounds.  Its also been run over by a truck and is still running strong.

If I had to pick one to be my only pistol it would have to be a Glock 19.  It is a great weapon, reliable, light, compact and goes bang every time you pull the trigger.  Load it up with Winchester Ranger 127g +P+ ammo and you are ready for a decently large set of zombies.  I generally carry its little brother Glock 26 with same Winchesters and a set of CT grips in a VM2 holster with a G19 spare mag and spacer.  That gives me 26 rounds of really decent stopping capability.
