My favorite combat handgun ever is the HK USP Tactical .45 ACP. I shot it once and fell in love, the recoil is ridiculously light compared to the Springfield GI I fired. It's also very reliable and packs 12 rounds, more than enough. The large grip fits my hands perfectly, as I'm a fairly large guy. It was tons of fun shooting with the KAC suppressor as well.

My next choice would have to be a GLOCK 20, it's very powerful and the recoil is not too harsh for me at all. 10mm Auto is expensive, but it sure is versatile and it has a nice flat trajectory.

If forced to choose between a M9 and GLOCK 17, I'd choose the GLOCK because I've never even touched a Beretta pistol before. Honestly, though, I wouldn't trust my life to a 9mm if I was being forced to use non-expanding bullets.

I'm going to have to say the M9. Not because it's particularly good or anything, but it's the only pistol I've ever fired & qualified for so I wouldn't know how to use any others!

I'll take a Vz 52. It's the only handgun I've found that fits my hand to any degree.

Well I have never held a firearm in my life so I am not able to speak on the same level as most of you.

mmmm. you guys might think im girlish but any short 9mm is good for me. they are compact and they carry enough of a punch for self defence. and if i mean to be on the offence, id probably carry more than a hand gun any way(hopefully a 105mm rifled cannon attached to alot of armor and tracks...)
