DU Gun Owners: What is your favorite gun you own?

[galadrium]

Mine would have to be my HK USPc .40. Lots of good features, concealable, reliable, and looks very bad-ass.

[Superfly]

1. Browning Auto-5

Finest duck gun ever made

[slackmaster]

2. Springfield Armory M1911-A1

Mil spec 45 ACP pistol. It's big, it's kind of heavy, but I can hit things with it and it always works.

[thuebert]

3. got about 7

ar-15
44 mag
9mm
30 odd 6
870 shotgun
m1 garand
and a .22

The ar-15 is fun

[galadrium]

4. who makes them?

Which one do you like best?

[Columbia]

5. Remington 870

Versatile and fun. :bounce:

[OpSomBlood]

6. My list...

Glock 21 (Second Gen)
Glock 23 (Second Gen)
Kahr P9
Colt M4

The Glock 21 is far and away my favorite. I've had it for ten years and it's just amazing.

[7th_Sephiroth]

7. DE50.Ae7

damn fun gun to fire, if you can keep the kick down

[Superfly]

8. So far, mine's the finest....

na-na-na-na-na-na...:silly:

[galadrium]

9. are you measuring finest by which costs the most?

[Superfly]

10. No, which one is the finest example of

longevity of design, simplicity of operation, beauty of lines, and ability to shoot fowl on the wing.

[galadrium]

11. don't you think alot of that is subjective?

I think the Rem 870 has been around for quite a while too

[Superfly]

12. Yeah, but the 870 is a pump....

:puke:

(BTW, I'm a shotgun snob, if you haven't guessed)

[demsrule4life]

18. My dad has a Browning A-5

that was made in 1927. My great grandfather bought it and my dad received after he passed away. That gun has never missed a season since 27.

[Superfly]

19. I just retired mine 2 years ago...

it is number L8XX...one of the first 1000 light twelves ever made. I retired it because it was just too damned nice to shoot anymore. It still is the best pointing shotgun I have ever had to draw a bead with. That humpback just catches your eye, making aiming instinctive and natural.

[Township75]

13. Walther P99

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NICE! If it weren't the best one here, why would James Bond use it?

[galadrium]

15. I thought Bond used a PPK

Does he use the p99 now?

[Superfly]

17. He used to use a PPK

Now it's a P-99.

He even used the Walther WA-2000 once. I would love to add that thing to my collection.

[Wingnut357]

33. My p99 Titanium 9mm is the nicest gun on the range.

[Ganja Ninja]

14. I own four hand guns, two rifles and a shot gun.

The hand guns are: A CZ-100 with a laser sight. A FEG Hi-Power copy that I fitted with Pachmayr grips and a recoil buffer. A Browning .380 DBA and a Berretta model 21-A. Of these I like the FEG Hi-Power copy the best.

The rifles I own are: A CETME in 308 Win and an old Mossberg .22 caliber semi auto. I've had the Mossberg since I was a kid. It's old and was unreliable even when new. I like the CETME but I'm not married to it.

The shotgun is a Saiga .20ga. A neet gun based on the AK mechanism. It was cheep and I think is a great buy.

[Roaming]

16. Own a Glock 9 mm but would prefer a revolver; it just seems to

feel better to me, somehow more solid, when shooting. Also, the Glock sometimes jams ammo, don't know why.

[TX-RAT]

20. Winchester 101 Pigeon Grade Feather weight 20ga

[Superfly]

21. I've got a matching set of 101 Pigeons

12 and 20 ga. Great guns. Working on completing the set as money comes to bear.

[TX-RAT]

24. Do you shoot sporting clays?

[Superfly]

25. Sure do...as often as I can afford it...

Won the purse in my division about 2 years ago.

[TX-RAT]

26. Shot skeet & trap for years

Shooting clays for the first time next weekend, will be using my Ithaca 200e s/s. All my Winchesters have fixed chokes, its chambered for skeet/skeet.

[Superfly]

29. Same here...(about the 101 chokes...SK/SK)

you must be good with that s/s if you're going to use it for sporting clays. Me, I've always liked the single sighting plane of the o/u.

[TX-RAT]

35. Started out with a L.C. Smith 20ga s/s

Old habits are hard to break. I still have the Smith it was a gift from my Grand Father. As far as being a good shot, I've got tons of quail on my place that might argue that point.

[Superfly]

36. Fair enough...

Side by side shotgunners are few and far between nowadays, and as an "old-school" hunter, I applaud you.

[texasdem99]

22. .357 Ruger Service Six Police Issue

Simple, effective; I like a revolver because it minimizes the chances of jamming or misfire.

Loaded, of course, and ready if needed.

[MichaelHarris]

23. mine

.50 Cal Kentucky long rifle.

[DoNotRefill]

27. Mauser .22 LR target rifle

SWEET!!! (and OLD)

[Redneck Socialist]

28. Tough question

Current fav, MDM .50 caliber Buckwacka. I just got into the muzzle loader thing a couple of years ago and it's a hell of a lot of fun.

[Me Me Meme]

30. I only own four guns - three of them are favorites!!!

I get the most use out of my Browning BPS 12ga. 28" barrel, plus a Hastings rifled barrel with Bushnell scope. I've got this gun in my hand most every weekend from September to February.

Marlin 336 30-30 with 2-10x scope on see-thru mounts. Actually, I'm going to the shop to pick this one up tomorrow. Gonna be next years deer rifle, I don't wanna hunt with slugs no more.

And then there's Winona, my Springfield XD-9. I basically took a $400 pistol and dumped another $400 into it. Hard-chromed, competition trigger job (pending), aftermarket guide rod assembly, PSI adjustable sights. Sweet goddamn gun - eats everything I feed it without a hiccup, accurate, absolutely 100% reliable - no mechanical failures whatsoever, ever.

[galadrium]

34. I have an xd-9 too

For the money, it is probably one of the best pistols you can get. Mine has never jammed once.

[Hammie]

37. A tricked out XD?

I didn't know you could do that.

[Me Me Meme]

38. Oh, yeah

You can get Bar-sto match barrels for it, Springfield's custom shop will do barrel and trigger work, I know a guy who's making stainless guide rods to replace the stock captive spring assembly. And any sight that'll fit a Sig 226 wil fit an XD, same dovetail.

Shit, you oughtta see Rob Leatham's XD... (!) {I haven't, BTW, but I'm told...}

I'll send you a PM with a link to a message board that supports the XD. I don't wanna post it here because...well...we don't even allow political discussions on most of the site, it's just about the XD's!

[Fescue4u]

31. Bulgarian SLR 100, AK-47 with a milled receiver.

Very well made, very reliable and it pisses off the anti-gun zealots.

Come September, I add the bayonet mount and make it a wmd. :)

[Low Drag]

32. Glock Model 29 10mm

Gotta love the 10mm! I also have the model 20.

[DonP]

39. Springfield Armory Mil Spec .45

Absolutely reliable, plenty of knock down power and eats just about everything I feed it, except Win Clean.

[flaminlib]

40. Dad's 308

50's vintage, Winchester lever action. As accurate as just about anything out today, up to 300yds, with open sights!

1 inch groups at 150 yds, 165gr factory loads. No rest, just kneeling position. Smoked my cousins 300 Weatherby, and his $600 scope.

Not bad

[WhiskeyTangoFoxtrot]

41. Well if I had to pick one

it would be my Glock 20.

Controllable, high capacity, lots of power. This is an average size auto pistol that will take game up to and including black bear if need be.

Now if the big manufacturers would start making some .45 Winchester Magnums...
