Your favorite guns?
Only what you have actually shot.
I personally shoot best with a marlin 336 with an aftermarket peep sight my friend owns. I shoot my Savage mk II G the most. Ammos cheap, and it is an accurate gun that eats anything I feed it. I shoot it more than any other guns. I also like 1911 style Autos, Some day I'll get one with a larger safety and slide release for easy usage. I also like Double actions like the model 19 or 686p. Not a fan of double action automatics. You? |

If it's only what I've actually shot, probably Beretta 92FS. I'd say my 5906 up until recently when the extractor started failing. Gotta get that fixed. The Model 19 was fun as hell to shoot, and just knowing I had the gun itself in my hands was gratifying. I gotta go shoot that thing again................

No doubt the M1911A1 pistol series is my favorite. I also like the Berettas, they have a very smooth slide and shoot nice, although I loathe their replacement of the 1911 in the military.
I like Glocks, I've shot a 17 and a 19 and both were nice guns. I'm not a huge fan of the triggers though, the half-cocked safety system makes the trigger pull half double action every time. I like the AR-15 series rifles, mainly because they are very nice to shoot and very accurate. Too loud though to shoot often. I like the M1 Garand a lot, you have to shoot one to really enjoy it. Otherwise it is a 9 1/2 pound hunk of wood and metal that goes "Ping" when you eject the clip from it. The Springfield 1903 rifles are very nice to shoot as well. I love revolvers, especially Smith & Wessons. They are much smoother than Colts, but Colts are still decent. The new stainless S&Ws are great, now I don't have to worry about that touchy bluing smudging up. I like old vintage guns. I love SAAs, Colt Navies, Armys, Remington 1858s, and Winchester rifles. Marlin made a lot of good stuff too but they don't look as nice as Winchesters. I love guns, frankly. I have my favorite, but as long as it isn't infamous for killing the user shooting it, I'll give it a try.

Unless you've got an action job on a Smith, it's not better than a Colt, especially a vintage Python. I've got A Colt and a Smith, and while the Smith does have the better action (but not tighter lockup) I can tell it's been opened up and modified. Still, they are the quintessential revolver makes.

The python was a piece of art, one of the greatest made. That doesn;t mean all colts are good. The lawman or trooper, forgot which, was stiff. I shot an unmodified 686p that pulled at just under 8 pounds double action. Performance center makes some awesome guns too.

I haven't really shot enough guns (handled many, not shot). Of the pistols I've shot, I like the Beretta 92 series (and, more specifically, the Taurus PT92 copy) and SIG-Sauers the most. I also have enormous respect for the 1911, but I've only fired one in my entire life so far.
Going back further in time, I think the LeMat revolver was a really cool concept. My Dad owns a more recently-manufactured copy. |
