What make/model gun is your favorite?

Without a doubt, my favorite handgun is my Glock 23 in the venerable .40 S&W.

My S&W M&P 15-22. Just a hoot to shoot and even if you just want to empty a mag at steel targets rapidly, you don't break the bank. It was already my fav for fun, but having finally got a suppressor that fits it, it is now by uber-fav. Valuable, no. Collectible, no. Puts a smile on my face (and the face of others that shoot it) YES!!
 
I'd hate to live in a world where I could only have one gun, but if I did it would be a Light Weight Commander in .45 ACP. I have two LW Colts, one worked over by Nighthawk and one waiting to be worked over by Nighthawk. I want duplicates.
 
If the old Gold Cup, BHP or the long barreled K22M is not in my hand then it's this 460.
I like it and am thinking about a theme for engraving that fluteless cylinder. ;)
The BT99 or any No.1 Rifle are wunderbar as well.

big red grips under construction.

This is my favorite rifle. It's a Mauser from 1910, a guild built gun with the original stock. It's in 7.92 J...kinda hard to find ammo, but not impossible. I like it a lot because I got into the gun pretty cheaply and it's a fine rifle.

I have lots of favorites depending on application: for full size carry it is a BHP; for pocket/backup it is a 649-2; for fun shooting it is a 17-1 followed closely by a Ruger Mark 1; for trap singles it is a Remington 1100; for trap doubles it is a Remington 3200; for trap/hunting/sporting/all around with only one shotgun it is a Krieghoff model 32; and for rifles it is a 10/22 for fun and I got too old for big bore rifle hunting.
 
My favorite is my Colt Model "M" .380 ACP. It has been refinished in polished hard chrome and has Novak mini 3-dot sights. It certainly shoots much better than I, but it carries very well. JMB knew what he was doing.
 
My S&W 686-1, wish I knew how to convert iPhone photos into a URL. Until I figure that out, it is my profile picture on here, so hope that suffices. Never had an issue with it that wasn't my fault. Shoots great, and reliable as they come.

I own more than a few guns I really like, but since the OP excluded sentimental considerations and qualified the question as he did in his second post, I'd have to say a Weatherby Mark V. I guess I read too many hunting stories written by Weatherby-toting riflemen when I was a youngster. ;)

I am no admirer of the American "classic" rifle stock. My Mark Vs feel like they were made to fit me, though if I were special ordering I'd skip the skip-line checkering and the white-line spacers. My favorite is an old Euromark .300, which dispensed with those two features and substituted a matte finished stock in place of the high-gloss finish stock of the Mark V Deluxe.
