What was your first Handgun?

[MPH]

Bryco Jennings J-22. $99.00 and proof that you get what you pay for.

Nah..that's kind of harsh. It was fun to shoot, and I still have it, but it hasn't seen daylight in 20+ years

Sig sp2022 9mm awesome little gun

 

[Robz703]

My first handgun was a Keltec PF9

 

[JoeWop]

XD9SC

The first handgun I ever purchased to own was my SA XD9SC and I still have it. I love this little gun for the ability to CC and have 10+1 rounds on me. The extended magazines are great to have with me for added rounds. After some time with it I purchased a 4" service XD9 to match it I am now moving into the Glock world and have a Glock 21 SF Gen 3, but cannot imagine trying to CC.

 

[Corn-Fed]

My first handgun I owned was a gen2 Glock 22. First handgun I ever shot was a Sig P226.

 

[Lebowski]

Ruger MK1 Standard. It's an old gun but it was my first handgun when I got it about 3 or 4 years ago.

 

[Chesh97]

Gen 2 Glock 17

 

[Ketchup]

Gen 2 Glock 22. Sold the receiver but kept the slide and run it on a Gen 3 OD receiver.

 

[BugI02]

My first was a beretta 92F substantially similar to the gun adopted by the US military but pre-dating said adoption. It's my understanding that the 92FS incorporated some design changes to address issues that came up in military testing. Sold it many moons ago (for a nice profit).

Ruger SR9C -- compact 9mm. Great handgun. Shot it at the range today.

 

[HoosierHandgunner]

Ruger single six .32mag, wish I still had it

 

[jbrownrfn]

Beretta M9 still my favorite gun to shoot after extending my collection

 

[HARVEYtheDAMNED]

Just got it today!

Kel-Tec PF9, taking it to the range next week.

 

[RedThunder]

Beretta 92, was a good gun to shoot.

 

[Bsubtown]

Sig Sauer P226 mk25. Not a bad first purchase but since been eclipsed by my G20 in fun to shooteness.

 

[Vanguard.45]

Walther P99

It WAS going to be the Vektor CP-1 until I actually held the Walther.

I have since owned four P99s and four PPQs, which are what the P99s should have been all along!

The CP-1 was discontinued and completely recalled due to its inability to keep from firing unintentionally when dropped or whacked too hard! A shame, too, since the gun was awesomely cool with a very futuristic appearance! I would have never started my addiction with handguns were it not for the CP-1.

Thank you, Vektor!

Springfield Armory XD-40 Service 4" barrel. Had to sell it for a mere $300 to the local gun store owner for a loss of $130 of what I paid for it, had to sell because of financial hardships. And boy haven't there been some of those

Currently have a 4.5" XDm-40 though! 16+1 rounds of "Life is good"
