What Is Your Favorite Gun To Shoot ?

[NYlakesider]

I have a bunch of guns I love to shoot. Many different reasons for sure. MY 547 3'', a customized by me model 28 I built up for PPC shooting, a Browning 22SA take down I bought new in the 60s at about age 16. A few others, a very hard choice to make.

With that said I realy like taking out a bolt action 22, its a early Ruger 7722 with a fixed 4 Leupold on it. Gun is very accurate and just a blast to shoot. I describe it as a sporter that thinks its a target rile.

Tough question to answer definitively. I like all of them, even my lowly .40. It's not bad with the more modern ammo.

The only thrill I recall is when I tried out the Colt 10mm in '87 and the 357 sig conversion in my Glock 22. Any more they are all pretty much equal from 22lrs' to 44 mags.

The least is a 7mm mag without padding. Yes, I'm a sissy.

Quite to the contrary. You are a wise man.

My favorite is my S&W 686 SSR. The pistol has been worked on by Denny Reichard an it's super smooth. I just have a love affair with .357 mag. The sound is "music to my ears !!!.

I enjoy shooting all of my shotguns, rifles and pistols. Since this is manly a pistol site, of my pistols, I did not realize how much I like shooting a model 52 until I recently got one after not owning one since the 70s. Probably my favorite to shoot at paper.

That's an easy one... Hands down my favorite shooter is my SA M-1 Garand. I never get tired of the ping.....

Lately- a Ruger Mark IV Target. Accurate, soft shooting, reliable, I really enjoy it. Waiting on Form 1 for a 10.5" Colt 609 build and that should be wild in 5.56

Opps, forgot photo

I own lots of pistols and revolvers but my favorite to shoot is a custom 686 Mountain Gun worked over by Magnaport with 2 cylinders. One uses moon clips in 9x23, 38 Super, and 9x19. The other original cylinder for 357 & 38 Special. The 9mm sees a lot of use because the ammo is very cheap. It is the top one in the attached photo.

This one because I can actually hit something with it...

Playing Favorites

I would have to say All my Guns are my Favorite to shoot.

All my guns went through a thought process to buy them.
None of my guns were bought on a "Knee Jerk Reaction".

I also Reload for all but of course the 22lr's. That gives me
enjoyment too, along with owning the Guns I do.

Great Thread.

I go through phases when it comes to favorite guns to shoot.

Lately my favorite isn't a handgun but a rifle. My Ruger M77 Hawkeye African chambered in 9,3x62mm gets out to play the most often. Shooting it gives me permagrin. It pushes a 286 grain slug about 2400 ft./sec. The recoil is substantial but very manageable and just a great big shove. Shooting a box of 20 rounds is enough fun for a day. If you hit a football size rock at 100 yards the rock explodes. It is plenty accurate but not a rifle that shoots little tiny groups. Without question it is minute of elk out to 300 yards.

I'm surprised this caliber is not more popular this side of the pond. There isn't an animal you couldn't hunt and handle anywhere in North America with a rifle chambered in 9,3x62mm.

Maybe someday I'll get to take it to Africa and use it as intended but for now I can imagine and continue to blow up rocks.

I've only had it a short time, but my 2020 Python has quickly become my favorite gun to shoot. I've fired just over 800 rounds of mostly 357 ammo through it before the governor shut down the ranges.

But my Model 19-9 isn't far behind. The trigger isn't quite as good as the Python's, but it ain't bad.

If it will do that every shot I would like to buy it. I have a 686L, 687L and a 682 Gold E and all 3 have misses in them. Larry

I didn't start busting clays until 2018 so I have plenty of misses in me. At the club I shoot at the term for a miss is "410". So when shooting Skeet I hear "410" a lot.

It's hard to pick a favorite but one day I was shooting this German 1937 Sauer & Sohn K98k in between two people shooting Garands. We drew a crowd of old geezers. That might be my favorite moment of the last few years.
