The Current Armory
Known to our users as the pistol to have when surviving the apocalypse according to popular vote, it's known as the 1911. Thank you very much Mr. Browning.
Some call it the M9. Love it or hate it, you'll decide the first time you pick one up. There is no middle ground with the Beretta 92.
This nifty little piece of Italian ingenuity is called the Beretta PX4 Storm.
This sucker has been around forever it seems. Some might think it has similar lines of a 1911, there's a reason for that. It's called the Browning Hi Power.
This weapon could be referred to as an "offensive" weapon. It's called the Colt Python. And yes, it's pretty awesome.
If you don't know what this is, ask a cop. Odds are good he's carrying one. It's called a Glock. Don't ask me which model. I think they are on Model Glock 582 or so right now.
I literally have nothing to say about this piece from lack of experience with one. I know it's from a well known brand of decent firearm manufactures, and it's supposed to be a winner. It's called a Heckler and Koch USP.
This beast has been carried by some of the most supreme bad asses of all time, notably; Lara Croft, The Boondock Saints, and the Major to name a few.
Jokes aside, The Deagle is made by some of the most battle tested people on the planet and it only comes in the most wicked rounds known to man. Don't make fun of the owner.
Another gun I have no trigger time on. I do know they are cheap, and in abundance. So get your Makarov PM while you still can.
Wow, just when you thought there couldn't be another variant of the same gun, here comes the Ruger.22 LR pistol. Shocking.
This gun is freaking awesome. Universally accepted as one of the best designed hand guns out there, it's used by multiple police and military forces across the globe. The Sig Sauer P220 series will be around for some time to come.
They were the police supply force for some time and also made some mean pieces. I have every intention of owning one eventually. Smith and Wesson is a company known for making decent firearms and ammo for a long time now.
Does it belong here on the handgun page? Not sure yet, but either way the Steyr TMP / B&T MP9 is one unique / freaking mean looking piece of killing hardware.
