Ok, let's say for whatever reason (personal, economical, political, etc.) you were limited to two handguns, two rifles and one shotgun what would you choose?

The handguns must be one rimfire and one centerfire.
The rifles must be one rimfire and one centerfire.
The shotgun is any you want.

Which guns and CALIBERS/GAUGE would you choose?

Plainsman · « **Reply #1 on:** December 01, 2002, 01:58:33 PM »

Rimfire handgun: Ruger 22/45
Rimfire rifle: Marlin Model 780 bolt action
Centerfire handgun: Ruger Redhawk w/4" barrel in .44 magnum
Centerfire rifle: Marlin 444P in .444 Marlin
Shotgun: Remington 870 pump in 12 ga.

Two Glock 23's in 40 S&W. One stays home for the wife.
One 243 Browning A-bolt composit Stalker.
One T/C Black Diamond .50 muzzle loader.
Remington 12 ga 1100 Auto.

Pretty much what I have now...

My government has deemed handguns to be "evil", so I know nothing about them and can't comment.

Rimfire rifles are of interest to me for plinking only, so I'd probably go with my model 90 Winchester.

Centrefire Rifles are my primary interest, and my current darling is my Remington 7600 in .35 Whelen (although I like almost all of them that don't have a bolt).

As for a shotgun, I don't use it much, but I like the feel of my IGA Condor although wish it had automatic ejectors.

Rimfire Handgun- Ruger Single Six

Rimfire Rifle- Remington 541

Centerfire Handgun- 1911 .45acp

Centerfire Rifle-Remington or Ruger 30/06 bolt action

Shotgun- Remington 870 12 Gauge or H&R Topper {simple and reliable}

IronKnees · « **Reply #12 on:** January 19, 2003, 11:44:00 AM »

The rifles would be the old Remington 510 Range Master that my Dad gave me (my first gun) when I was nine years old... That old rifle sure holds some dear memories... The centerfire would be .30-06 because of it's wide range of bullet weights and powders. It can be loaded to very nearly equal .223 or .224 performance right on up to, heavier bullets boardering on magnum performance, and is good for just about anyting in the US except brown bears...
Handguns would be my little .22 rimfire single shot revolver and my S&W 629 stainless .357 6 inch... Not so sure about he shot gun though, but will pick my Winchester Ranger Deer Combo in 12 gauge..

grendel · « **Reply #24 on:** November 30, 2003, 08:16:45 AM »

I'll take a swag at this.

Handguns. First one is a Ruger Single Six 22LR/22Mag. Note if price was not an issue it would be a Freedom Arms 22LR/22Mag. 6 1/2" barrel in either.

Hand guns. Second one is a Colt/Kimber 45acp Gov. model. It hurts to give up the S&W Mountain Gun in 44mag or the Ruger 5.5" 45LC in the Blackhawk but I want the concealbility of the Govenment model. Note if price is not an issue this becomes as Les Bauer. Can also consider getting a Kart conversion for this.

Rifles. First one is a GOOD Mauser or Ruger in 30-06 with a Leupold 2.5X8 Scope. Note if price is not an issue this becomes a Blaser Bolt action with lots of different barrels and scopes.

Rifles. Second one is a Cooper 22LR.

Shotgun NEF Handi Rifle in 12ga, 10ga. If this is breaking the rules then Remington 870 12g would do.

ONE rimfire and ONE centerfire for handgun and rifle! Love how people can't answer questions as asked anymore :wink:

That said...

Ruger 22/45 (I prefer my "Great Eight"
Ruger Bisley in .45LC - stainless
Volquartsen made 10/22 style
Marlin 1895 in .45-70 (don't own one, but to me it's an all purpose model)
Benelli M1 (love mine)

Is this where I add that I'll also include extra bbls in different chamberings and another centerfire handgun andanother rimfire rifle and ...
