Mine was my M649-2 in .38 Special.
I have been practicing with it every time I've been to the range lately.
Ammo was my 158 grain reloads made with with Unique.
I shot from three yards back to 25 yards and practiced reloading from Tuff Products Quick Strips.

Last rifle I shot was a Remington 40X in .22 Long Rifle. It's got a 8-32 power scope.
I'm getting back into .22 benchrest and discovering I haven't forgotten everything I learned two years ago.

This morning I shot my new to me m34 and then my M25-5. Yesterday I fired my Savage 99 and my M19s in the morning and then the Win 95, Schofield copy, M24 and K22. Day before that i shot my M30, one of the 1911s and a 96 broom handle. It is a pain in the neck to collect all that brass off the deck but better than shooting out of the living room window:)
 
I fired Bob Smith last Friday. He was a real screw-up. Late all the time and wasn't producing for the company.

Sorry, sip...beat ya to it...somebody had to do it. :)

642 - daily carry. Sometimes I forget how much fun my protection tool can be! I enjoyed it greatly and have now marked the calender to remind myself to shoot it monthly.

Have the day off today so planning on getting the kids out w/ rimfire and 9mm target practice = Kimber , S&W and Ruger.
 
I put several heavy-bullet .44 cowboy loads down the short tube of my home-modified 296 a few days ago. The gun now sports a non-original steel cylinder and a Big Dot sight. It's a little less painful to shoot with the heavier cylinder and softer loads than it was in the factory configuration. It may actually weigh as much as a pound and a half when loaded.

Don't know if everybody would agree that a modern Walther counts as a Smith, but I ran several magazines through my PPK/S on the same range trip. It didn't jam, or go off accidentally, or otherwise annoy me, all of which I took as a good omen.
 
Well, if you count Walthers....my Ruger Mark II had a problem with Remington Gold Bullets yesterday so I ran 2 boxes through my P 22 as an ammo check. Lots of fun. I also fired my new 642 for the first time. More fun than I thought but the slide latch got my thumb a bit after 30 or so rounds.
 
My 28,15, & 19 went to the range with me last Saturday
 
Burned up some old ammo from various manufacturers in my 3913. HydraShoks, FMJ, JHP; it ate them all without a hitch.
 
M34 & 617 last weekend. The centerfires won't get a workout till I feel I can replace what I shoot.
 
My newly arrived 657 PC gun. A Lt Wt Hunter, 6" slab sided bbl, ported with a 2# SA trigger pull. Shot some 210 SWC's over 7.5 of Unique. Same loads I carry in my M-58.

Shot very well at 25 yds.

FN in MT

My P22 loves those Golden Bullets but will not eat anything that says Federal. I even did the complete "Bible" fluff and Buff. I shot that yesterday also.
 
This past Saturday I shot one of my model 29-2's 4 inch. Loads were 7.5 grains of Unique and a 250 grain Keith bullet.
I am taking the same gun with me this weekend to qualify for concealed carry.
