Looking for handgun recommendations for plinking?

If you want something more than a .22LR that is cheap to shoot I'd look for a 9mm.

The problem with the Tokarev, as I see it, is ammo supply it tends to come and go. Most of what is currently on the market is surplus. While it is cheap right now it won't last forever. There are a few companies making new ammunition but it cost more than 9mm.

Any 9mm semi would be good choice; the recoil is manageable, and though more expensive than 22lr bricks the ammo isn't outrageously priced. By the time you look at the 22mag cost, or a .38 or .380 you are already at 9mm costs.

.17hmr

.32

.38

I like the .327 because it will shoot the .32 short the .32 long, the .32 H&R Mag and the .327. So you can go from approx 700 feet per second to 1400 or so.

This will get thumbs downed for sure, but 32acp is still around 12 bucks a box of 50, cases are cheaper. You want a fun little plinking round? 32acp just might fit the bill.

CZ50's are awesome little guns chambered for 32acp. Fairly inexpenisve, between 125 to 300 depending on condition.

Here's a CZ 70 32acp http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.asp?Item...

A lot of historic pistols are 32acp, or 7.65 browning, same thing. Mauser pistols like this one http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.asp?Item...

Andy's right , the tokarev is a hell of a gun, but the way ammo is going up it cant last forever. But it's a good conceal carry gun!

Buy the new 327 Federal Magnum manufactured by Ruger.* That is your best choice.*
