My springfield 42 m1 garand

 

There is so many in my collection that I adore that have no real purpose.

My most favorite gun I have ever shot would be my grandpas pump action 22lr rifle that was a Winchester made in 1910. It is just a weird gun that makes me smile when ever I shoot it. Hopefully it will be mine someday.

Of my personal collection I would say it is my PPS-43 in 9mm. It is heavy clunky and has no real use but it is surprisingly accurate and gets lots of attention whenever I take it to the range. Probably the least practical gun I own right now.

 

Its actually my everyday carry.


"Lilith" - Modified Kimber Pro Carry II with XS Big Dots

It's the most balanced, and natural-on-target firearm I own and/or have shot. I literally just draw and make holes where I want them.

Kind of nice that it's always on me as well. :thumb:

 

My SPR in 5.56 or my SMLE Long Branch scout rifle. I don't have guns that I don't shoot

 

Man, this is a tough one... I'd have to go with my S&W M&P AR 15. It has a 4x scope on it, and I could shoot that thing all day long. Just a pleasure to shoot every time.

It's that or my carry gun, the trusty Glock 23 that I've had since I turned 21.

 

AMD-65 with a few mods. Its unstoppable, and just fun.

Everytime I pick up my 4.75# AR with tuned system though, I think about getting into 3-gunning. That thing is SO light and flickable, with such little recoil, its wasted on a static range.

 

Mine is a tie:

Mariln Lever action 30-30
Ruger old army .45 Black Powder

Both are just great guns to go out to shoot, neither are a real every day go to gun.

 

My favorite is still the first gun I bought, a Savage 110 in 30-06. She has a light, crisp aftermarket trigger, is easy to shoot well, never let's me down and is ridiculously accurate.

 

My M1 carbine. that lil 50$ rifle makes me grin every time i pick it up. Inland div.

 

+1 for the M1 Carbine. My dad was wanting a $180 Airsoft gun that looks and feels like a real M3 "Grease Gun" for his military vehicle shows and told me if I got it for him from a place out in California he'd give me one of his M1's and 500 rounds of ammo.

Needless to say that's a deal I couldn't refuse lol. Add to the fact that I picked up my dad's fascination for all things WWII and I just love shoot that light little rifle. Just points naturally for me.

 

Fun factor my m92 357/38 and its brother S&W model 19 4" 357

 

A Beretta 391 semi-auto on sporting clays.

 

Winchester Model-92 "Takedown" with a 16" octagon barrel .45 Long Colt.

 

Remington nylon 66 semi auto 22 lr. Shoots like a machine gun. At 40 yards, I can pump 15 rounds rapid fire into a beer/pop can. No other weapon I own can beat its speed and accuracy.

 

Had a nylon 66 when i was a kid, loved that gun wish i still had it

 

S&W 624 snub with .44 Special HPs. Perfect balance for shooting, perfect dimensions for CCW.

 

I don't have a lot to choose from. My fun firearm though would probably be my Mosin Nagant. I've shortened the barrel to 19". It's my 'hunting' rifle, but I don't really hunt. It's fun to shoot. Over this winter I put a red dot on it and made a flash hider. Looking forward to getting it out and trying out the add ons.

 

+1 on EDC. My custom S&W 639 is THE most comfortable handgun I've ever held. It's all stainless and heavy...making it a dream to shoot. :thumb:

 

My 12 ga coach gun, I love to practice my reloads. I slicked it up pretty good and it gets better every time I run shells thru it.

 

Savage 23C. 32-20 is great for plinking, ground squirrels and coyotes. I like the savage 19 and 23 line. I bought one of each. I keep a 23B by the door in the house, a 23C by the door in the barn and a 19 in 22LR by my closet door. If not for these, I would have said the Ruger 357/77.

 

My 1970 Browning Hi Power and my 1943 Rock Ola M1 Carbine. Both a pleasure to shoot and just look at.

 

My most favorite of them all is this CZ 75, 9mm.

 

This is deffinetly my other fun gun.

Puts a smile on my face every shot, even when I'm not the one pulling the trigger. Never a bad day at the range with it.

 

Pterodactyl hunting is always fun.

 

My marlin model 60 I've had since childhood. My favorite to shoot is my Ruger mark 2 mk-6 7/8. Basically the most accurate pistol I have ever shot. No recoil. Not very loud. Fun to shoot. Hard to pick just one or even two. I love all my guns equally. LOL.

 

Agreed!




Wow! That was my reply too. I had a marlin model 60 and a Ruger Mark II. The model 60 died (in a camping accident) so I replaced it with a marlin XT which is the same thing as the original model 60 but bolt action which can be (and is) pillared. I have hit quarters at 200 yards with the marlin and golf balls or even shotgun shells at 45 yards with the Ruger with the adjustable target sights, all with pretty good consistency. They are fun on gophers or just plain plinking and you can shoot all day for $ 15. No sore shoulders and not hard on your ears. Unless somebody brings a CZ or a $ 1500 Olympic rifle to the range, you're not likely to be out shot. In fact, I have not been out shot yet with either one. Tied a few times - Yes - but not beat.

The Ruger I recommend to anyone. The marlin is Connecticut and I'm not sure about their quality control. I don't what the odds are but I and another person each got a "bad shooter" (4" pattern at 100 yards). I fixed mine myself and now the bullet holes touch but had to get out a slide rule to do it. I'm not putting marlin down. I just don't anyone to buy one on my say so and then shoot a 4" pattern.

I noticed a lot of people cited what they liked but not why. It's the "why" answers I most enjoyed.

 

love my '43 1903 A3.

 

My "rescue" gun.....was a neglected Truck Gun, battered and abused. But wowee! It shoots so sweet! Old WWII? 1950s? Marlin 336, in .35 Rem. So utterly predictable, nice recoil, handy, and I don't have to worry about the finish, or weather, or scratches, or....

 

For me it is the Marlin 1894css .357/.38 lever action rifle made in North Haven Connecticut in 2008. when I'm not looking at a firearm for self defense...or put dinner on the table, I bring her out for fun and games. Only about once a year, usually on a gorgeous day in May, and then I clean and polish her up, and put her away. Action smooth as butta. Accurate as sin.

Theres just something about a nice lever action, right?

My choice is my Marlin 1895G in 45-70. It was one of the last ones made in CT before the whole Remington cluster****. I dont shoot it a whole lot, mainly cause ammo isn't cheap, or easy to come by, but it puts the biggest smile on my face when I do.
