My GP 100 is a 4" and it was my pick without giving it 5 seconds thought. Tough gun.

If mine was the 4" it would have been an easy choice. My P345 was a very close second.

I nearly bought one of those today, thanks to its legendary reliability and the fact it eats any half-assed Wolf ammo you throw into it.

My Taurus PT99AF 9mm. It can hold 15 shots and has never missfired in the 10 yrs. I've been shooting it. I'd trust my life with it.

I've gotta say a 5" 1911. It fits, it performs and I don't miss with it.

Smith & Wesson Sigma .40 S&W because my only other choices would be a Ruger P-89 9mm, or a 6" barreled S&W .38 Special revolver.

There's one pistol that beats EVERYTHING out there

Calico Liberty III with the 100-round mags.


If you've got a couple full mags, there ain't a horde of Zombies you can't handle

There is NO Substitute for 100-round Mags.

S&W mod19 357 4"

I would keep this out of all my collection. Load up for defense or hunting, load down for target, dead reliable, dead accurate, have three speed loaders and can knock down 6 8" steel plates at 15 yards in 6.33 sec.

I would really hate to give up my glocks, sa 1911 5", .22 h&r, P90.

Super Redhawk .44 mag. It's a little big, but I can load it down to 180g bullets or up to 320, there isn't much I cant do with that.

I have an old/ like new DW 357, still has the factory box and all. 4 inch barrel, fixed sights. Shoots dead on with 125 gr full throttle HP's. Gun is tight and clean. Barrels can be changed; a 2 1/2 " barrel is $120 +. If it's my one and only, I'd buy that snub barrel. I'd say it would do in a pinch for bigger stuff with teeth and claws, with the 4" bbl and Federal Fusions or similar.

XD .45 with 4" barrel. I can conceal it, it's accurate, never misfired in over 2,000 rounds and will stop anyone.

boy what a lot of good choices..... as i was scrolling up and down the replies, i was torn between my browning hi power and my s&w model 10.....

i had decided in favor of the model 10, when i saw TXplt's choice, the ruger single six. that totally screwed me up.....

i have decided when it's time to choose, i am grabbing both my single six and the model 10s&w and i am out that door and down the road!
