What is the best firearm ever made?

All the Firearms on the market today have faced good
reports and judgements, but some Firearms have not
been graded with very poor ratings.

What is the Best Pistol ever made, foreign or domestic???
We have many categories and classes, plus we are all
different operators and our skills are infinite and beyond.

There is no “the best”.
This is very personal and subjective.

I can talk about handguns only, this what what I’ve been shooting and I have experience with.

But even that, it’s hard to tell which one is the best ever made.

  • perhaps Alien by Laugo Arms?

But since I love 2011 platform.. I’d say…

  • HEX by Jacob Grey

But, as I mentioned.. this is what works for me and I consider as the best (so far)

My top 5

1911 Colt 45
The winner of two world wars and the base of many copycat guns.

the B.A.R. 30-06
High powered and it was a favorite carry in World War 2.

357 magnum Smith and Wesson

Winchester 30-30 lever action

Banelli Semi-auto shotgun

One would have to have knowledge of and have shot in some volume to know this answer. And then there’s purpose. Maybe provide some criteria?

There are a lot of quality firearms out there, many have magazines that hold a lot of rounds. I have, since the Marine Corps (1968) carried the 1911 .45 (Thank you John Browning). One shot, one kill !

It depends on what you mean by “the best”.


Call it the Single Action Army, Colt 1873, or Peacemaker, the iconic Colt .45 has been a crowd-pleaser for over 150 years.

Blessed are the Peacemakers.

Easy peasy. The best firearm ever made is the one that feels the best in your hand(s). The one that makes you want to get to the range and shoot. The one that you don’t mind cleaning and maintaining. And of course, the one you trust and depend on when SHTF.

We are all different and I am glad. I like the Sig Sauer P320 Compact, 9MM and FULL .357 Sig.
Sig Sauer P320’s have a NEW FCU. Never forget the Glock 26, 19 GEN5, and 29 (10MM). The Glocks
have your Performance Triggers also. Always learning and I have had a few years too.

Need a Moosburg 500 12 Gauge. 18" ,00 Buckshot.

I asked for people’s thoughts, and I promise you, I was sincere in my commits and questions.

THANK YOU!

Any story behind it? Why did you acquire it?

100%!!! Thank you for information. I pick and choose firearms that have performance and accuracy.
I am unable to buy one $3500 to $5000 firearm, which is Wilson Combat, but I researched 6 different
Brands of Rifles and Pistols (Both) and I grow with them and upgrade for performance and safety.

I am glad you collect firearms too; I have a long way to grow.
