JCMCUBIC Campfire Outfitter J Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 13,759	I like to have access to and the ability to use ammo so I'm going to cheat: G23 40SW, with a 9mm barrel/mags and 357 Sig barrel 4" .357 revolver for Mag's and Specials 22 lr, most likely the 3" LCRx revolver but a 22/45 Lite would be ok...the LCRx is just so handy, light, accurate enough, and likely to be less ammo specific on function than an auto. Although I only have one specific use for it, and really don't care for it much aside from that use, the S&W Gov gives you the ability to use 45ACP, 45 Colt, .410's....so it's an honorable mention.

Barring TEOTWAWKI my list would put me with a G19 for SD, a 1911 for fun and my 629 MG for elephants. Figure I could live out my days and not get too bored.

I’m double the three gun limit but it would cover most of the handgun shooting that I do if really forced to narrow it down. An FNX .45 Tac for honorable mention just because I really like it.
