currently have 4:
WE makarov
TM Hicapa
WE Sig 226
Cybergun 1911
these days i'm primarily running the makarov because it's small, handy, fits on the smersh rig nicely and effective enough for the rare time i'm using it.
the hicapa is a great gun, often gets lent out a fair bit these days.
the 226 needs a new hop unit, been a bit lazy in getting it repaired but it's a nice gun in it's own way, just doesn't like the cold too much
the cybergun 1911 is beautiful and terrible, doesn't take standard parts, can't hit the broad side of a barn door, fps varies from 100-260fps, mags regularly dump all their gas somehow without sounding like they're leaking and the kick is so violent it has a nasty habit of ripping out it's own front barrel bushing. that said it is very nicely finished and makes one hell of a bang.

Currently running a WE G17 with Maple Leaf Hop-Unit, Bucking & Barrel, RMR sight, Acetech lighter and a Surefire x300. This ends up being my in-door CQB gun.
For the fields, I use an ASG CZ 75 SP-01 Shadow... I use this for no other reason than a justification for owning 2 pistols

I have two.
My favourite shooter is my TM Strike Warrior 1911 type with potato masher on the front. It has a ML 50 degree bucking, Laylax Nineball 6.01 barrel and I-Key. Single action pistols just feel "better" One of the best stock trigger pulls out there (Seriously, next time you see a Strike Warrior give it a go, will surprise you!)
My TM M9 U.S is more reliable gas wise, more mushy trigger, I use it when its a bit nippy out or when rocking the french loadout.
I should probably buy some more pistols as I dont have many compared to rifles. Looking for something with a fun switch (Auto)

dunno, just got a general vibe.
must admit a mate of mine is very into his glocks, i don't understand it myself, glocks a glock, some have fun switches, some are smaller, still a glock.
but then i suppose my regular gun is a makarov so i'm probably biased.

Not just for that , you get in a confined space and you’ve not got the room to move your primary?
i hardly ever use mine (could probably count on my fingers the times I’ve ever NEEDED it) but then
yesterday I did need it twice ! Hence I always carry one .
what pistol ? Depends on the loadout , I’ve accrued quite a few over the yrs so I’ve got them to go with era/nationality/and general look of it . Ones I do seem to use most of the time though are a TM 226 , KWA M9 and a WE 1911A1 .
i do like AEP’s in CQB as there such low FPS (but withthe right hop and barrel still have the range) you can hose the shit out of players and there not exactly going to winger and whine about over kill are they ? ???

no never been in a space too confined to use my rifle, but then i only play in woodland. i'm guessing your either a cqb player or really fat?
i play light, one aeg, with drum mag or two hight caps mag-clipped together. one emergengcy mag in pocket, one small bag of ammo in pocket. dont need anything else. (except maybe a cig for when im sat waiting for action)
dont end up carrying to much stuff you not gonna use
