Your combat pistols

[simon1]

Since I've never been in formal competition, well except for the plaques we'd get during qualifications, I thought I'd put this up to go with the Competition Pistols thread for those that don't have high dollar competition race guns.

What ya got?

My only combat pistols are a 45 ACP from the mid 80s and a 9mm Beretta. I still carried a M-4 when deployed as no one wants to have the enemy close enough for a pistol fight.

Back in the day I carried a Beretta 8000 9mm Cougar as a duty weapon.
Today’s choice would be my .45 Sig Sauer P220R

My combat pistol would be whatever pistol I happened to have on me, when I picked the fight and got into some combat.

Mine would probably be the same as I listed in the competition thread or what ever my compact CCW choice of the day was. My competition pistol shooting was of the IPSC/IDPA variety, supposedly "practical". I shunned the high end "race guns" and competition gear and usually used a concealment garment, when allowed, so I was not that "competitive". For me, it was all about real world training. So single stack 1911, stock Glocks, S&W revolvers. Iron sights, no compensators, no "flash", just "bang"!

These days almost certainly one or two 380 pocket pistols. But the plan is to never get into combat.

 

[nortac]

Best made plans...… But conflict avoidance should be paramount.

In years past, I've mostly carried the Les Baer Premier that I used in local IDPA competitions, and a Sig P239. Recently, though, I've moved to a Sig P365, which I really like due to lower weight and comfort.

None at all, and many.

I'd be comfortable with either of my HKs. The P365 would do in a pinch, but obviously has its limitations.

Ruger GP100, 357, 4" barrel, SS, rose wood insert grips. Makes me look like a good shot, lol.

I had just got back back from the range.

Oh snap!

Mongo think H&K good...for combat tupperware.

Does that say Okie Stubble or Okie "Chicken Scratch" Scribble?

I'll have to get mine out of the safe when I get back home and take a family portrait. I only have 7...or maybe 8...I think.

In 32 years carrying professionally only my Beretta92F saw combat.

She did her job.

I pray that my civilian carry “Elsie Pea” never sees combat duty but she is prepared.

I hear you on that. My Colt 1911 .45 is the same way. Not fun. Not fun at all.

I was shooting it. Put 200 thru it. I like the trigger and ergonomics, don't really care for the paddle mag catch. It isn't mine, It belongs to the same guy who owns that Aero Precision I shot the other day.

However, H&K has the VP9-B with an All-American push button mag catch.

With the advent of Word to type reports, along with not needing to sign the back of paychecks due to Direct Deposit, when does a guy get a chance to practice his penmanship? I definitely shoot better then I write.
