"Best" is extremely subjective. Why do you want the handgun? How will it be used? How much are you willing to spend? Even with that information, it's hard to say, because every person determines what "best" is based on his or her personal criteria, and knowledge or lack of knowledge of guns. In my personal opinion, Sigs are right up at the top of the list. They are extremely reliable (I own several that have 200,000 rounds or more shot through them) and I have had very few malfuctions, and all of those were ammo related, however, Sig is a top dollar gun.
