What is your favorite gun to pull out?

Glad you can use the dot sights, I find them to distracting. In my hands they seem to dance around on the target. I am much better off with old school iron sights. Good shooting.

Thanks for the kind words. I still keep a Model 41 with iron sights around just in case. With these old eyes I have to wear special glasses that help me focus on the front sight.

carry everyday a M38 smith , jogging a 317 2", just knock around and walk ditches looking for woodchucks , a SAA in 45 ACP or 41 spl. and now and then stalk the stream/ ditch`s with 22s a M41 S&W or Colt woodsman. a 10/22 ruger is always by the door for the night stalker racoon`s who raid the cats food bowls. dont have single go to really. I guess id have to say a grab one quick is the 10/22 3 mags always loaded next to it.
 
Darn MP5 is constantly begging for attention. Stopped putting it in the vault since it was in and out more times than a...

K-22 Outdoorsman from 1939. Hard to resist a 22lr equivalent to the Registered Magnum (my opinion).

For me it is the do anything, shoot anything, never fail and always on target platform. A "C" prefix 1911 that at some point went through a complete accuracy job, became part of three (3) gun bullseye matches and ended up with me. A Black Tea finish and VZ grips brought it back to a nice physical appearance but, have no doubt that it get's the job done!

My S&W M&P 15-22 with a cheap 4x scope, and a bunch of 25 round magazines I load up the night before, and these days add the suppressor and sub-sonic ammo. Just never get tired of plinking hanging metal plates or swinging some baseballs hung from a PVC frame. I love to get one spinning and then try to hit it as it moves back and forth or to try to make it spin the opposite way with my next shot.
 
You know, I woke up this morning and it all changed. When I opened the gun vault door this morning for some reason I reached for my S&W 586 Distinguished Combat Magnum to caress.

Well, yet another new day. This morning I reached in the gun safe and out came a Springfield Fully Loaded 1911. Yep, my favorite gun of the day.
 
Sorry for the repeat pics, but for the 100% fondling pleasure in my modest collection, it's ALWAYS one of two (and sometimes both) that get taken out and played with for a few minutes, regardless of the reason I went in there in the first place. 🙂

1918 Colt Black Army or 1944 Standard Products M1 Carbine.
