Got about fifteen favorites that I would never part with.
Flavor of the week is my new AR-10 carbine. I can't really say that I would pick it over any of the others as "the one", but I hold it a lot. |

I have a Remington 11-87 Sporting Clays NP (nickle plated reciever) that I shot in competitions a lot in high school, that's probably it. I have a 1933 Colt 1911 that is really cool...but I haven't had it long enough to get sentimental with. Eventually this will probably be it. |

A 1924 Colt 1911 Transitional Model and my Custom M1A always seems to surface first. Then the AR-10, 15's and AR-50.

Depends what they are into.
Whatever is on the mill with metal chips laying all around makes a good impression. To confound gun guys, I take apart a 1904 Portuguese bolt and have them put it back together (hey, it is only 5 peices or so...) A first model Newton in good shape usually impresses bolt type guys, or the STG-58. A Broomhandle Mauser impresses pistoleros. An MG-34 parts kit with the dummy reciever impresses everyone, but I leave it in the closet to avoid ugly rumors. Got lots of neat stuff, but I will *never* part with Grandpa's old Marlin 39 with the salt eroded finish and near smooth bore. |

I like my AK and AR equally well, and my shotty needs to go to the smith. However, I am eagerly awaiting my 458 SOCOM upper, which will have a DD 12.0FSP handguard on it.

My homemade/put togeather M-4. I love it, but most folks I show it to have no idea of what all the bells & whistles cost, or what I went through to get it that way. Pistols would be my Kimber Pro Carry CDPII. I think it's purrrrddy.

I think its my pre ban Sendra carbine. Got it from John Ross and its really a nice lightweight fighting gun. Plus my new Kimber Ultra CDP. For a range report on my new Kimber see the handgun forum.

Lumpy!!!!! I just got to shoot one of those at a Chute n Shoot! I was hot with the thing too! Good sights and long range performance for a subgun. Weird charging handle though. Tiny mags for a full auto too. |

Whatever is at the top of the safe, sometimes a Gold Cup, sometimes a Python.
If they are into rifles, an AK (or two) is in the way of getting out the early '90s (maybe late '80s) M1A, with all the goodies...the last rifle I'd part with. The bi-pod and bayonet seems to make it more complete and gets 2nd looks from hunting types.

My Garthwaite 45 for pistols. One gun I'll never get rid of and I'm quite proud of is a Marlin Model 90 O/U. It was my uncles. My uncle was killed March 13, 1945 in France.

That'd be my AO 27a1 semi-auto Thompson. Got it fixed up with a horizontal forearm, 28 style cocking knob, paddle safety, modified mag catch so it'll take un-modified FA mags. It's heavy and by modern standards isn't "State of the Art" for a combat weapon but I still love it.  A very close second would be my Austin & Halleck Mt. Rifle. It's a flintlock and has the fancy wood so it's a real looker. Goes bang(well, flash-bang would be more like it) each time I pull the trigger.

LOL, I'll bet you get alot of people saying you can't put a stock on a pistol, right? What they don't understand is that if it's pre-'98 it's ok.

 Yeah, yeah it ain't an AR. I like showing those off too, but the rifle was the first custom gun my late father was able to have built and a great friend of the family built it so it's very special to me. The Ruger was my first .44 Magnum and I got it from another very good friend. Ruger used to put a hell of a finish on their guns! Jason |

Gotta be my Iron Brigade Armory rifles.
Precision shooting at its finest edge. A maxed out IBA M1A that has been photographed for Janes Defence. A brand new 300 win mag and a rebuilt M86 Macmillan action with a limited run barrel made for Delta several years ago. All three are incredible shooters. Love them |
