Have owned and regularly shot another pair of P-95's in 9mm since '98, but there's no comparison. Have no idea why, but the 45's are like they grew in my hands. Never owned any handgun that feels so natural and that I've handled so well.
And that includes the 22/45 that all who own will testify fits and feels like you can just point and shoot.

My previous favorite shooter was my Remington 700 VSSF in .220 Swift. Very low recoil, very flat and it would shoot 3/8" @ 100 yards. I had to sell it to pay for medical bills. I sure do miss it. I don't want one of the new Remington's with that stupid locking safety on it...

Personally, I don't own one but my favorite shooter of all time would have to be the SIG P-228 (M-11) that I used to carry. What a dream. I threw on some Pachmayr slip-on finger-groove grips and the thing felt like it was an extension of my body. Throw in the accompanying Gould & Goodrich paddle-holster and it felt so right that I actually took naps with it on my hip and even accidentally took it home a few times. Shhh...don't tell nobody~
As someone pointed out - other guns may go ... they may even be the main reason I go to the range, but these 2 are the ones that always accompany me to the range ... they are not just "favorites" but proven preformers:
Pistol - Kimber Custom Stainless
Kimbers most basic stainless 1911
Bushmaster XM-15/JP Enterprise Varmint

Alltime favorite rifle: Steyr Mannlicher - Scout .308Win
(sold it - darnit, but saving up to a .243Win Scout now.)
So Favorite rifle in my posession now: Ansh?tz bolt action silenced .22LR.
Don't do anything that I've allready done - That'd be just plain STOOOOOOPID.
Pistol - My Erma .22 that isn't in anyone's catalog or blue book. Had to retire it this year, worn sear and if it ain't listed, you can't get parts. Really miss that little pistol. Trying to get the Erma Baby Luger to fill the slot. It is getting there. Would love a Korth pistol.[:D][:D][:D] Just takes more money!

I think you need at least one more mag ... isn't 13 supposed to be an "unlucky" number?[:p]

I like your taste! I'm a big fan of the AUG too, but thats why I had to look at it in terms of what always goes to the range with me ... whats more, if I had to sell one or the other I would let accuracy be the deciding factor ... In my case, the AUG lost.
When you start shopping for a Erma Baby Luger and if you want it for a shooter be sure and try the trigger; I had one that unless you pulled the trigger just right all you got was mush ... mine had a lot of slop in it, but maybe thats just the way they are

By the way, when I shoot my Steyr, I bounce the 6x6 target every shot at 150 yards. I love it and it is as accurate as I am. Guess I am just not up to par on the range. But, if I point it at a 6x6 target at 150 yards, I am going to rock it and grin. Good enough for me. Perhaps my standards are too low. Oh well, I am happy and accurate within my own specs.[:D][:D][:D][:D] That is with the 1.5 scope. Will be trying out the 4x Hensoldt this weekend.

That is my pride next to my M1A. That 40x is the only true one hole gun I own.
"I know Everything because

This was shot from the bench ... I wish it was off-hand!
Glad to hear you got a good Baby Luger ... mine was a big disappointment and I sold it shortly after I acquired it ... first and only German firearm I've had and didn't like.
