I enjoy my Kimber 1911 45 ACP and I usually take my 22 conversion to extend the shooting fun especially if I'm out for bunnies.:D

Favorite Handgun
 
Lets See my favorite handgun for plinking is my Ruger semi auto 22 rimfire with the slab side bull barrel. I have a millet red dot sight on it and it is amazingly accurate . Really fun to use on the steel silhouete range with Velocitors:D

I would have to say my 6 inch barrel, custom S&W 25-5 is my favorite. It is by far my most accurate, it fits me perfectly, and I can use either .45 Colt or change the cylinder and use .45 ACP. I don't hunt with it any more, but it has taken hogs, one deer, and a number of varmints.

Smith&Wesson Model 57 in .41 Mag, 6 inch barrel adjustable sites and a set of Pachmyer's. Killed everything from grouse upto moose with it.(Okay the moose was allready hit with the 300 but it was still standing before I put the final shot into it, mental note bring more ammo for the rifle next time)

Not many people shoot this caliber anymore.

Centerfire: I guess it has to be my Merrill or XL, if you wish. I pick up the leather bag and off I go to the the field with a 22, 30 Merrill, 30-30, 32-20 and 357. The 22 and 32-20 are scoped. It is the very best hunting handgun I have ever owned and may well be the best hunting handgun ever made.

Rimfire: The Browning Buckmark 5 inch gun, is just a fun gun to shoot, especially with a dot sight.

Mostly my Model 18-3 S&W. Its "only" a 22 but a hoot to shoot. Owned it about 35 years and its still going.

Being a rifle nut I mostly shoot a Rem 700 in 280. Just a accurate rifle that usually will hit what its aiming at. I stress the aiming at part. Its shoots about 150% better that I do.

That's a hard question because it sort of implies enjoyment. I guess of them all it would be a 1911 but I sure enjoy a lot of others as well. A pre-war 4" Woodsman is close.

Just added another pistol to the collection it is a Para-Ord Nite Tac LDA in stainless. This one should be a shooter like the others.

my glock 36 in 45. If you learn to handle a large caliber handgun in a small package everything else gets a little easier to shoot.
