Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Handguns Your One, and Only One, Handgun

Cool. These are stock grips, gunner. And perfect. Got it right here on Ye Olde Campfire, sir.

NICE! congrats my Friend, I love my old Trooper.

Thanks, gunner. The best to you, sir.

Yes Sir, have a great evening my Friend.

Great old Trooper, LD. Don't ever let anyone tell you those MKIIIs won't shoot.

I dug my Colt King Cobra (limited edition) out yesterday. Sent a few 38s down range into a stump. Pure joy.

A cop I worked with has a 4" original King Cobra which I have shot some. Good trigger, easy to shoot well DA and handled Magnum loads comfortably. I nearly had it pried loose from him but he came to his senses and ruined my plan.

I had a 4 inch that I carried once in awhile, in an Uncle Mikes rig.

But when we are in our 20’s we don’t think of companies stopping production and hence I traded it for something I don’t even have anymore. The one I have now is a Six inch.

That's a neat old gun, Sarge. This one of mine will eventually be going to my nephew to help him along with his legacy. The kid's got his head screwed on right, works his ass off, and doesn't like lazy ass commies. I'll of course need to shoot it a bit and wring any problems out before I pass it along.

Have to stop in on you and gunner next time across the country. Be well!

Thanks LD.

To the original question- probably this old G22. Pocket '66 Winchester

In all reality Sarge, the G22 checks a lot of boxes.

I’ve never one, I have a 35 and 27. I really want the 23 though.

I love the 23 (especially the Gen 2) but the grip is a tad short for me. My hands aren't that big; an XL glove is just snug. But I've beaten them up pretty good over the years and they're starting to stiffen up in cold weather. The longer grip works better for me.

The pictured 22 has been undercut a little, had the underside of the trigger guard relieved and the interior opened up to make it friendlier for use with light gloves. I notice that undercutting/relieving the finger bump makes this Glock almost point like a normal pistol.

I like my P30L.
Maybe get another in .357 sig if wanting to hunt critters.

Ok,,,,, FWIW, here is my Candidate for a One & Done.....

I like my Sig Sauer P226 9mm a lot, I have the .22 RF conversion unit for economical practice and times when the 9mm is not needed.

My favorite. FNH Hipower 40 SW converted to 9mm for a 3 lug lockup. Barrel is a barsto match, Novak sights, stippled frame, no bite hammer/sear and Spegel grips. All work done by Novak's.Twin is on the way, carried daily stateside.... 15 rds of +P+ love in each magazine.

I sold all of the very last run of those .40 Highpowers to Mr Novak back when I was in the Wholesale Firearms Industry.
Sure wished I had kept one of them for myself. 😢

Bought a couple of them years ago for like 750.00 each and felt like I got raped... Saw a Hungarian FEG in .40 go for 1100.00 a couple days ago on GB... Don't feel so bad now.

That’d be my first choice too. Love my Glock 32 in 357 Sig!!!

My second choice would be my Glock 20 in 10mm

Damn! That’s crazy. I think I sold Mr Novak all those HiPower .40’s for around $400 each, if I recall correctly.
