Favorite firearm that you own?

Favorite, not the coolest, but, favorite is a 16 gauge side-by-side from the late 20's that was my Grandfather's first gun that he used to hunt with when he was a teennager... nothing special about it... hardware store type quality... but its cool to have.

Yeah - I still have my great uncle's 870 20 gauge pump. First quail gun. hell, first gun.

Worth nothing, being one out of a zillion sold, and the inability to handle the 3" shells sucks. Somewhere I have a few boxes of 20 years old lead shot lying around. Probably next to my cans of #12 refrigerant. :biggrin:

I am more of a bow guy, Bowtech thank you. My first gun was a savage over and under, .22 on top 20 gauge on bottom. Great for all hunting seasons in Ohio. A .22 is just a fun gun to own. I gave it to my brother.

I am partial to my T/C Encore. It is not really a primitive weapon but is damn accurate at 100 yards. Still one shot, muzzle loading.

My old man has several safes full of guns I will inherit one day. There are some treasures in there. He and my grandfather both gave me guns when I was younger that have not been made for years and have great trading value. I'll keep them.

My grandfather also made custom knives and I have a few of those.

Side box mag, just quickly I'd guess a Krag-Jorgensen of some variety... mostly in this country you'd find it with the 30/40 cartridge, or however that's properly denoted-- .30-40 maybe?

off topic but......

I wanted to pick up the new Ruger LCP, but the backlog is who knows how long and nobody has one. Cheap little pocket rocket at around $270. I know I know, .380 sucks but.......I will be able to hide that little thing anywhere. :)

Anybody you know get it? How reliable is the thing?
