Memories and value aside, if the question were that I have to give all my guns away, but could keep only one for the rest of my life it were my A400.Quote:

I wanted a good quality sxs So a few years ago sold off some of my older shotguns and bought a rizzini sxs in 20ga. It has a English stock and round acton, weights just under 6lbs and balances just in front of the hinge. First time I took it out of the shipping case I thought the dealer sent me a 28ga by mistake, it was so light and lively, but it was a 20, the round action can be deceiving. Balance and function is awesome and it carries and shoots like a dream all day lightning fast. I think every upland bird hunter owes it to them selves to own a nice sxs for the days in the fields at least once in there life.
My 1901 Winchester 94 38-55. Great grand dads gun handed down over the years and will continue when it get handed to one of my boys. Take it out to put a few rounds through it every year. Really like the 1973 Sako Finnbear 30-06 that I acquired just over a year ago. A few others that I like to pound a few rounds out of but the fore mentioned are my favorites.

I like my inherited auto5 light twelve. Trying to track down my great grandfather's lee enfield 303 but not sure it will become a fav or just a neat piece of history.
For me it's my Navy Arms (Davide Pedersoli) 12 ga SxS muzzleloading shotgun. Light and fast - a perfect upland game gun, Beautiful too.

I have three goto guns. My 870, 12g 3", my 7600 in .35wailin' and my Ruger 10/22. If I had to give them all but one, the 870 would be in my hands. She's 28 years old this fall, replaced a few worn parts, but she takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin'...
I've got more in the cabinet, but most are heirlooms and don't get out much. The 870 sees the most use every year. Wailin comes out for two weeks during deer and maybe this spring for bear and next month for fox/coyote if I get out for that. The Ruger goes bunny hunting in winter and fun shooting the rest of the time. The 870 could do it all, but I don't want to put that kind of pressure on the old girl. Lol
Camo BAR 308. Ultimate Ontario game rifle.
Right there.....fun to me = favourite. And my 10/22 Deluxe has always been a blast to shoot - for the whole family for that matter. It is the gun that is with me more than any other.Quote:
