Thought provoking question.

I can't pick just one because pistols, shotguns & rifles are so different to shoot

So...

M1911A1 - such a classic

Remington 870 Wingmaster 3" magnum, long barrel, Monte Carlo stock - somewhat pedestrian, but a trusted friend

In the "anything" category, I can't narrow it down, as there are so many I'd like to shoot someday just for the experience: Thompson M1928, PPSh 41, Ma deuce, MG 42, a classic Purdey sidelock 12ga, etc., etc.

Of course, now I'll be spending the rest of the evening checking prices and looking over old magazine copies of American Rifleman & Guns for ideas for what to buy next.......hmmmm... I always wanted an M1... ;)

That I presently own:

M-1 Garand or Winchester Model 61 (since 1948)

1911A1 or Walther PPK/S .380

Winchester Model 12 20 ga (since 1952)

For shooting my 1911 .45 or my Walther P1. For carry my little Bersa Thunder CC

Nice lemon squeezer !

With my rather large hands I prefer a full sized H&K .


I'd have to say though my favorite would have to be a local made by master gun maker that's a 50 cal flintlock muzzle-loader in cherry. It's my main deer gun. It's a real tac driver too.

I think it's way cool :). http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...N/Mvc-813f.jpg

I've hunted deer off and on for around 30 years with this old Dixie Tennessee Mountain rifle. Built it from a "kit", which was a rare achievement, as the vast majority of these were sold as complete rifles. As a matter of fact, Dixie never listed a kit, and mine was acquired in a plain brown box from a local muzzle loader fanatic who had connections.

I'm beyond pleased with my p238 for carry, but my p9s will always have a special place in my heart...

My favorite is the Smith and Wesson Bodyguard even though I need to send it back for servicing....I like carrying it with me as it is the perfect size to carry. Fits very nice in my Crossbreed IWB Mini tuck holster.....very comfortable....

and my Kimber Ultra Carry II in 40 cal

http://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r...ictures004.jpg

Sig 220 is my favorite;
Closely followed by my 70 series satin 1911 and the Kimber 45.

Long gun, 1903A4, a throwback tack driver.
Benelli M1

Vintage German Merkel 20 ga. over/under and American S&W Model 29. Top quality, most reliable and easy to clean.

The next one I acquire,

Karl
88 Targa

I had a 6" nickel Python, the most accurate & smoothest trigger I've ever shot.

As far as currently owned. Probably my S&W 4013TSW. Light, accurate, decent capacity, and easily a great CCW.
