What Are Your Favorites?

[zipperzap]

       
Your favorite 'popular gun(s).'

I'd like to find out what popular guns you like.
 
Pick as many guns you like - rifles, pistols or
shotguns - you don't have to own them but have
at least shot them/had one in you're hands.

Lets keep it fun and positive.

My favorites:

M1 Garand, you gotta love that ping at the end!

M1 Carbine, just fun, fun, fun to shoot!

30-40 Krag, the smootest bolt action in the world.

Spencer Carbine .50-.56, just for the 'history' of it
and the LARGE holes it makes!

Marlin GS .45-70, best 'brush gun'/big bore Carbine
yoiu'll ever need - shoots accurately out to 150 yards
and hits like a truck! ... and you can reload them up
to 500+ gn easily found bullets!

Colt 1911, historical classic - of they could only talk,
fits my hand like a leather glove. More aftermarket
stuff than you can shake a stick at!

Colt Python, one VERY smoooooth pistol!

S&W .500, biggest and baddest bark ... and the 'BITE'
is awesome! ... also a big 'attention getter' at the range!

My Favorites are 30/06, 300 Win, 300 RUM,270 Win,338 RUM,257 WBY,7mm Mag, And what I missed of mine. In other words they are all my Favorites

[ihuntbucks]

My  Ruger SBH .44 mag;Marlin 1895 .45/70;Marlin 336C .35 Remy;Marlin 336 .3030 (I like lever guns if you didn't notice ;Springfield Custom Loaded .45 acp;and my Sig Pro 2340 .40 S & W.....Rick

[jpsmith1]

Lets see...  Ruger Bisley and T/C contender for short and long range handgunning, respectively. 

For the fast stuff, I gotta go with my Remington 870.  She's been a faithful friend for many years. 

In rifles, I'd say Rem 700 in 6MM.  Possibly the most accurate hunting rifle I've ever fired, and a M94 .30-30.

But possibly my favorite, go to gun, for when someting need killin' I reach for a .22LR in a M9422.  Fast, accurate enough to get the job done and light enough to carry everywhere.
