Answer 1

Most handguns are as accurate as the shooter, and practice makes perfect.

A .22 LR allows for a lot of practice because the ammunition is inexpensive. It is also easy to shoot as it virtually has no recoil. I have a Walthers P-22 w/laser sights that is a dream to shoot. My 21 year old daughter could do not wrong with it, but settled on a Glock M-26 .9mm for personal defense (a better choice, I have to agree).

A .45 auto with all the bells and whistles is extremely accurate, but can cost as much as a couple of thousand bucks.

Revolver wise you can't beat the Colt Python (unless you can afford and find a Korth), but they are cost prohibited. My very first python cost me $150. in the Sixties (a small fortune). My second one $416. (a steal in the Eighties) and my newest one, a stainless steel beauty was a cool thousand.

The blue steel Walthers P-22 start right around $300.00 and like I said, the ammo is inexpensive. A hundred bucks more gets you a fitted laser sight and for a hundred and five more, you can fit the P-22 with a five inch barrel.

Depends on what you want your gun for.

Revolvers are always going to be more accurate then semi-auto guns. The only semi autos that will compare to the accuracy of a revolver are small caliber semi autos with fixed barrels in calibers .22LR, .32auto, and .380auto. There are no semi autos on the market with fixed barrels larger then .380auto. All of the larger semi autos have floating barrels to help absorb some of the energy of the blow back. If the barrels were fixed in larger semi autos, the slide would be the only part of the gun that would blow back. If this were the case, the slide would wear out extremely fast from being slammed back so hard each time a round was fired.

Answer 3

Any handgun is only as accurate as the hand of the person holding the weapon. Modern firearms fed modern ammo will print hand sized groups to fifty yards if you can hold them steady and aim true.

Scoped handguns with a rest can deal death out to say 150 meters with a lot of luck and practice.

Practice, a mimimum or 50 rounds each week, a hundred is better. After ten weeks you might pass for a pistolereo

If you are going to hunt with it I would suggest a thomson encore -in any cal. you are comfy with .Or a Ruger blackhawk hunter 7-10 inch barrel. In 44 mag.or 41 mag. If you are looking for a defense weapon most gun fights are at 7 to 10 feet. So practice is what you would need. But the weapon I would choose is the sig sauer P226 in .40 cal. Maybe a springfield xd in .40 cal.Its the mind of the shooter and the ablity of the shooter that wins gun fights.Mental toughness.practice practice practice

Answer 5

All of my handguns are accurate, But my all time fave shooter is a SW 41magnum, with a six inch barrel

A buck a pop from the store but dang fun shooting


Yes that is what I mean. With reloading I am able to get it down a bit more.

Answer 6

Any Wilson Combat 1911

Answer 7

There is no such thing as an accurate handgun, they are by far the least accurate of all weapons. The only thing they have going for them is concealibility and controlability. You should buy something in .45 acp for stopping power as one hit will drop most men.

Answer 8

The best one to own as far as accuracy is the one that feels best to you. My personal favorite is the taurus line especially the pt 92 and the 99.

Answer 9

Accurate handgun: Thompson/Center Contender. .223 It has barrels from .22LR through highpwrs up to 45 Long/.410 and poss. more!

Answer 10

Most high quality hand guns are accurate, training and practice are the key. my personal favorites are the Colt python revolver or the Colt .45 semi auto.
