Most of my guns are 9mm.
Cougars are shy, reclusive, and downright mysterious... :icon_wink:

Went with 10mm since thats what i carry. But i love em all.  Really 22 would probebly be favorite. Dont have to look for the brass after i shoot go there 500 round and only out 15 dollars.  Then cant go wrong with 45acp  have to keep alot of 9mm on hand for the better half to use .

My favorite handgun caliber is .22lr.  However, I think I probably have more 9mm handguns than .22 ones......

Saint John Moses Browning invented the .45 ACP.  That's my favorite.

In wheelguns, it's a tie between the old .38 and it's big brother the .45 Colt.

Having just recently bought my 4th M1911, I can say without a doubt .45 ACP

9 & 40 for now
Oh come on.....if you paid thousands of dollars for the very best, top grade 1911 and some clown comes along and beats you with a $400 plastic pistol, wouldn't you hate Glocks too?-

I've got a couple of 9's, a 40, 357, 38 and a 45. More often than not, carry and shoot the 9. Sig by the way.

I voted 9mm cause its what I pack most of the time Springfield XD 9 sub compact. If it is cool enough for a jacket I might switch to some old school 38 super or 45ACP in the 1911 form.

Hell, I've got one 45 ACP, eight 9mms and one .22 - so, 9mm for sure :)

I like .45 ACP the best :rocknroll:, but I shoot more 9mm - because it's cheaper.:machinegun:
