I know that pistols weren't used as often, but what are your favorite sidearms of World War II?

btw, you forgot the Finnish Lahti L-35, 9mm..

Its a hard choice for me... either the Webley, Colt.45, or the P38. The Webley is a fast reloading, reliable, and powerful sidearm. The Colt.45 is great with a silencer, powerful, has a very long service life, and iconic. The P38 was fast,reliable, and just damn stylish. Luger would be last on my list, extremely unreliable, and very prone to misfires, and expensive which is why it was replaced by the P38.

I voted for Colt .45 M1911. That gun is iconic, has serious firepower and was in active service within US military for almost hundred years...well i call that a good design, not to mention its quite stylish as well.

Still don't understand the Luger rage. The gun sucked, sure it made a nice war trophy, but not something that I would rely on for my last hope.

Well maybe because it had style. I mean look at the Colt 1911. It uses .45 ACP and still people vote for it.

Comparing Luger Firepower to Colt '45 firepower.. Like comparing the firepower off a MP5 to a Challenger 2.

Maybe within a 5meter range after 5 meters the .45 looses 99% of it's power, while the 9mm round stays powerful.
