STI Guns and More Pistols That Make Target Shooting Feel Like Cheating
Many handguns serve various functions. Maybe you are looking for a pistol that is easy to conceal. Or, maybe you want something in the largest caliber you can find. Those are both reasonable ambitions. However, for many shooters, it is about finding range handguns that are so accurate and easy to run that it makes target shooting feel like cheating. If that sounds like you, seek out pistols like the legendary SIG P210 or something from the masters of precision gunsmithing at STI Guns, now Staccato.
Big and Brassy – Kel Tec CP33
When the Kel Tec CP33 comes up, people usually rave about the 22 LR pistol’s ammunition capacity. That is no surprise, considering that its quad-stack magazine features a capacity of 33 rounds. The thing is, the Kel Tec CP33 also happens to be a deadeye shooter, particularly when you fit a brace to it. The tipoff is in the name. While the “33” refers to the capacity, the “CP” stands for “Competition Pistol.” Imagine how much fun you could have with this ultra-accurate handgun with 33 rounds per mag.
Competition Royalty – STI Guns
It is said that no other brand of firearm has been used to win as many competitions as STI Guns. It is easy to see why STI Guns, now known as Staccato, has been so successful in this area. That is because they combine high-quality materials with great design and stellar engineering. Most of the pistols from STI Guns are designed on the 1911 frame, one they have enhanced to tremendous effect. For a pistol that is the embodiment of accuracy, check out STI Guns, though be sure to search for them as Staccato.
Swiss Precision – SIG P210
Before there was STI Guns, there was the SIG P210. Many shooters regard the SIG P210 as the finest service pistol ever made. The Swiss police and military originally chose the SIG P210 because of its tack-driving accuracy. In addition to attracting a fiercely loyal fanbase, it was immediately transitioned into a target pistol. An original SIG P210 is likely to cost you a pretty penny, but target rereleases have a more modest price point. Another ergonomic, accurate, and high-quality pistol is the French SACM 1935A.
Cold War Colossus – CZ 52
Despite having a distinctive roller-locked mechanism and being known to handle loadings far hotter than the Tokarev is likely to tolerate, the CZ 52 is an often overlooked pistol. In addition to firing the impressively powerful bottleneck 762x25mm cartridge, the CZ 52 has another benefit as well—excellent accuracy. This is likely due to its capable chambering of such a hot-rod round, allowing it to keep a straight trajectory. The CZ 52 is a bit like the Beretta A400 or the Remington 700—a high-quality, accurate workhorse you can rely on.
Versatile Wheelgun – Taurus Tracker 692
The Taurus Tracker 692 features the no-frills competence of the Beretta A400 or Remington 700. It is saying something that the Tracker 692 takes its place as the only revolver on this list. Like the Beretta A400, you can run the Taurus Tracker 692 all day without a hiccup. Being chambered for 357 Magnum, and therefore 38 Special, makes it a powerhouse. However, that power keeps the slug flying fast and flat. If you are looking for an accurate revolver, the Taurus Tracker 692 is a solid option.
