I happen to love certain weapons just because fictional characters use them.  If I was exposed to a film or TV show or book in which a particularly favorite good guy or bad guy used a particular firearm exclusively, I then fell in love with that firearm.  (This, by the way, is the reason I am going to have to get the new Thunder Ranch Revolver in .45 ACP; it's the closest thing to Indiana Jones' pistol that's ever been manufactured).  I offer the following.

Magnum PI:  1911.

James Bond:  Walther PPK

John Wayne (yes, I know he's an actor, not a character) the cowboy:  Colt Peacemaker and Winchester Carbine.

Vincent Hanna:  FN FNC

Travis McGee (character from John D. MacDonald novels):  S&W Airweight Bodyguard .38 and Browning P35 9mm.

Feel free to post pics if you have them, as well.

Ash (Army of Darkness):

Now listen up, you primitive screwheads. See this? This... is my boomstick! The 12-gauge double-barreled Remington. S-Mart's top of the line. You can find this in the sporting goods department. That's right, this sweet baby was made in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Retails for about $109.95. It's got a walnut stock, cobalt blue steel, and a hair trigger. That's right. Shop smart. Shop S-Mart. You *got* that?
