Easy my modified series 70 Colt Gold Cup. Bought it new in mid 70s! Carried it for many years as a CCW, though it started out as a target only gun but to be blunt Bulls Eye shooting bored the heck out of me. Then I modded it for PPC and our clubs version of Combat Shooting.
Very dependable, accurate gun and its more than just my favorite non Smith, It is the most favorite Handgun I own.

I love my 1911 too, but this new Ruger LC9s I just got has one of the best triggers I have ever felt. My now CCW.

I'm thinking my Mark I Bull Barrel Liberty Gun.
Come to think of it, that's also my FIRST semi-auto. Bought it, used, in '80.

What else could there ever be??

I've owned a couple 1911's that just weren't reliable. Saving up to give a Model 70 Colt a shot.
Until something comes along better, nothing has been more reliable & accurate than my Springfield Armory XD's. They may not be the prettiest, but for function & reliability, they are hard to beat.

I've got several series 70 Colts and a few other brands and they are all reliable,but for looks it would be the combat commander

Colt Delta Elite, same 1911 design. I also wish I had kept my Para Ordnance P13, a double stack Commander design.

Toss up....my HP is my sweetest shooter but the 1911's history gives me a tingle when I shoot it.
1911. My current one is a Sig Tradional (meaning it fits a normal holster). Accurate, reliable, and, well, a 1911.

I like my 1911s, but if limited to only one pistol...
It would likely be one from this table.

1936 Browning HiPower for 9mm or out of production Springfield Compact .45
Both are super accurate and carry very easily.
