What's your "sweetest" handgun to shoot?
I have quite a few but the one I truly love has to be my S&W 14-1 Target Masterpiece in .38. It's a shame it doesn't get much use as it should but those 6 inches and sweet trigger system makes it a shooter's dream. I can hit a dime at 50 feet (or used to anyhow, before my cataract surgery)
What's yours?

That's kind of like trying to choose a favorite child.
I really enjoy my Model 29, with .44 Specials - loaded a little on the hot side. But when I load up my Ruger Super Blackhawk with the 7.5" bbl with my Keith loads, it certainly puts a smile on my face - especially when banging a steel target at 200 yards or more. Another one that I find to be really sweet is my GP100 with .357 mag loads. It is just really comfortable to shoot, and accurate. They all put a smile on my face when I pull the trigger, but the one pistol that always gets shot when I go out shooting is the Springfield 1911A1. So far, it is the only one I can break clays in the air with. The .22's are in a different class. Right now, the funnest .22 for me is the Ruger SR22. That little pistol is just a hoot.

Old Model Ruger Blackhawk .357 that I inherited from Uncle Bob, CZ-82, and my 1st Generation Ruger 22/45.
My 1911's aren't "sweet", they're here in case all Hell breaks loose.

S&W Model 15-3 4". Balls on accurate and has a fantastic trigger in both double and single action. It's been around the block with lots of wear on it, but it sure as hell is a sweet shooter.

I can't decide which is the sweetest shooting. So I'll say it's a tossup between three pistols I own:
Ruger, bull barrel target model MKII with UltraDot target red dot. I replaced the innards with Volquartsen pistol competition set.
It has a 2.25 trigger pull.  Model 27-2 S&W .357 Magnum. It came with a presentation wood box and cleaning brush. I haven't altered this beautiful firearm. It's perfect as is.  S&W Target M&P. It is topped with a Trijicon RMR Adjustable LED target sight. I replaced the original barrel with an Apex Target grade barrel. I removed the existing trigger assembly and installed an Apex flat face trigger set. I also replaced the original springs with target springs and it now has 1.5 lb trigger pull.
