If you could have only one gun (with slight twist)

[MrJT]

Ok, ok.... we've all seen threads about "what if (some weird scenario) and you could only own ONE gun?!".

Well, here's one for you but a little different:

Twist part one: You could own all the ARs and shotguns and full sized handguns etc that you want...

BUT, if you had to cut back to one concealed carry gun... what would it be?

Twist part two: NO J-FRAMES!

 

[arjay]

A commander or officers sized 1911.

 

[Muss Muggins]

Glock 26 . . .

 

[SPEEDGUNNER]

Wow, good question and a tough decision. As much as I like my LW Commander and have become very comfortable with it as my primary carry gun, I think if I had to limit my selection to just one the Commander might lose out. Based on unscientific studies conducted in my basement with a cheap postal scale, my Glock 19 with a 15rd mag and one in the pipe weighs LESS than my Commander with an 8rd mag and 1 in the pipe, takes up no more space on my hip and doubles my potential firepower if needed.

Hate to say it. Glock 19.

 

[SAFireman]

Colt Commander

 

[shot1971]

Glock 19 with spare mags!!! (I'll have to keep my Shield cause it's on my key chain.)!!!

 

[dereksfl]

M&P 9 compact with Crimson Laser and extended magazine as extra mag.

 

[regalsc]

I would use my emp9.

 

[KarmannGhia]

denied my J frame, I would have to go Ruger SP101

 

[USAF385]

Well.... Not too hard.

My favorite for the past year:



9mm Sig P938 Nightmare.

 

[Hapworth]

That's a long way of asking what cc piece would we choose if it couldn't be a J...

It's a close call with a Glock 19, but I like the compact revolvers for deep concealment, so I'd get the next closest thing to a J: an SP101 or a Colt Detective Special.

 

[Shorty 45 MK2]

But my carry gun is a full size....kind of. So can I still play?

I would vote my Shorty 45 MK2 since if I feel the need for more fire power I can go with a full size like a 5606, G17, etc.

No J-frames!?! That's just mean, I'm not talking to you any more! does a 2" K-frame count as a full size?

 

[jrs70]

Ruger LC9s

 

[Cal44]

I'd pick my 242Ti -- it's an L frame.

Or perhaps this 629

 

[MOONDAWG]

Gonna be different this time and chose the 21st Century version of the bread-n-butter S&W Model 10.

S&W 9mm SD9VE...reliable, simple, ergonomic, robust and accurate...

 

[jinx]

Model 64 with 3 inch barrel. Does everything that I need it to.

 

[A.O.]

I'll have to agree with whoever up there said SP101..

 

[getoff]

woof, a tough call... i guess the dreaded combat tupperware G19. or maybe my 686+ with the 2 1/2" bbl. not fair... no j's.

 

[old&slow]

If I couldn't have my J,, it would be my Kimber 3" .

Currently don't have a 4" 1911 or a G19. But if I could only have one handgun,, an alloy frame 4" 1911 or a G19 would also be high on my list.

 

[David R]

Cold Officers Model 45. Light weight, 3 5/8" barrel. Shoots to POI.

OR

When it comes in my new charter arms Bulldog. (maybe a week)

Or what I carry in my motorcycle jacket pocket, an LCP

BUT usually its a 637 with CT grips loaded with +p wadcutters.

Nice to see the love for the 45.
