I liked the 45cal grease gun. Hard to hold it on target, but real fun.

For fun, it's my Bond Arms derringer. I've got the .45 Colt/.410 3.5" barrel, .38/.357 in 2.5" barrel, and .22lr in 3". The only caliber of those I don't shoot is .45 Colt. Too expensive.

Favorate Handgun
For most shooters, seems that shooting anything is great. I also smiled regarding the Buckmark Pistol. Mine is from 1993 and was originally the 5.5" Slab Sided Model. I now have the Browning Hunter Wooden Grips, both the 5.5" Slab Side Barrel and the 7 1/4" Fluted Bull, a Picatiny Weaver type Scope base with rear sight and a holographic sight. Fun to shoot especially now needing reading glasses, the problems seeing both the sights and the targert.
Do love the FN 5.7 as well as my Model 41 Smith and High Standard. The XP-100 is a lot of fun as is my K frame Smiths in .22 and .357, with 38 Wad Cutters. Model 52 Smith is a fun gun on the range too. What does that leave? I don't especially care for shooting my PPKs, but a good small carry gun. the 4506 Smith is not as much fun to shoot as the Gold Cup, but I like both. Not a fan of my TC Contender, but have several barrels. Model 27 and Model 29 N Frames are nice to look at, but the 44 is not my favorate with the recoil even with the 8 3/8s inch barrel. My model 60 Smith is a back up carry gun and not particularly fun to shoot. Who is starting the What Shotgun or Rifle is the most fun thread? Can't wait. Bob

My very first handgun comes to mind when perusing "most fun" memories.
A 4" Ruger Standard 22lr purchased at age18. I used to walk the woods for hours plinking at targets of opportunity. I don't think I've had as much fun with a handgun since.

Thompson Center Encore in 300 Win. mag. with muzzle brake. Huge muzzle blast and fireball. No one ever shot it that didn't grin like an idiot.

I would have to say my 4" S&W model 13. Accurate is fun.

It's always been the one I traded off to get my new favorite. Hindsight.

Would have to say my S&W 547s. There just seems to be something about them.

In my teens and twenties it was my very first handgun, a Ruger Single Six single action 22. I had better eyes and hands back then and was remarkably accurate with it. I shouldn't have given it to my BIL.
My 1911 is a lot of fun to shoot. My 44 special snub is my current fav. The recoil is enough to be fun, but not enough to bother me. I don't have to wonder whether I hit something or not. Water bottles and gourds and so forth tend to just explode. |

the most fun i've had with a handgun is my CZ 75TS in 9mm something about it just keeps making me want to come back for more. best and worst part is the 20 round mags, sure helps on competition but my wallet hates ir for the plinking.

My brother's S&W K-22 Masterpiece. It's the only handgun I could hit anything with at 25 yards.
Yes, I'm a terrible shot. |

+1 on the Bond Arms .410/45C. Not practical for much; but LOADS of fun to shoot.

My XP-100 in 223. I'm glad it has the 14" barrel, I get plenty of "feedback" on the muzzle blast with that. I can only imagine it at 10". One round at a time, precision.

Most fun would be a Beretta 21a Bobcat 22 LR. Most accurate would be a Colt Official Police 38 Special that is no longer with me because as my first revolver I thought all revolvers shot that good.

Two most fun handguns:
1) Taurus 94 22lr revolver w/ a terrific SA trigger. 2) Beretta 92S, recently purchased inexpensive surplus gun, highly shootable, great fun. I won't be parting w/ either one of them. |

Boon I am sure it does but it doesnt sound like fun, I have shot an auto cobray street sweeper, a friend of mine can own DD's and had one for a long time, before he sold it he let me blow a few drum fulls off... That also was not fun... I have an m107a1, shot it about 7 times, also not fun and I have it listed for sale {for a few months now, could take years, lol}...
The most fun I ever had shooting was a rig one of the range guys put together, it was a tactical innovations double barrel 10/22 with a crank trigger and modified to fire 2 110 round drums, it had twin suppressors on it and we fired about 4000 rounds through it that day, it was so much fun, surprisingly accurate and CHEAP, I always wanted to build one but I gues I can shoot his anytime and I think it would be a pain to get in the safe, lol.. But I vouch for the fun factor, he is a smith so it was so tuned and worked flawless, although some of the vids on the net show them working really good... FUN, with the suppressors it sounded so quiet, with the subsonic ammo I have pellet gun louder!! We didnt have much of that but it was cool.. I would love to play with one of these https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5jpYfTOCIYY |

TC Contender in 357 Herret with a 10" barrel. Stimulating, I would say!

I would have to say my Ruger 32H&R single six birds head. I have a blast everytime it goes to the range. Now dont get me wrong, I love my 45C but there is just something lazer like about that little 32.
