Any of my ar-15s is say is the most versatile, or one of my smooth bore muzzleloaders.
Definitely fun, I have a ptr9ct(American mp5 clone) absolutely love it. Have been wanting one since the 80's finally got it last year.Either of my PTR-91s.
As a mechanic, thats an easy one- the pen that writes my bills.That's like asking a mechanic what his most versatile tool is.
Without a doubt, it's gotta be my custom-stocked, action pillar-bedded, free-floated, Rem 700 Stainless, chambered in .270 Win. It has shot a good-sized bull moose; maybe a dozen whitetails, (including a running one shot left-handed from a tree stand); a bunch of varmints, including foxes, woodchucks, coyotes and crows. ....If it needs to be killed, this 700 can do it...with handloads. I have similar stainless (.270 Win) Remington 700 in a Rem. fiberglass Varminter stock that is used when the weather isn't so nice.Just curious what u consider the most versatile gun u own and why.
I had one and I agree, tough, fast, and versatile. Being a blue steel and walnut guy I just couldn't handle the flash Gordon look. I traded it for a Savage 99.My Benelli Nova. I’ve taken deer, upland game birds, and tons of clay with it. When I used to care about being rough on my higher end shotguns, I’d take the Nova when the weather was iffy. Turns out, it’s a great, versatile shotgun.

Not necessarily... My Stevens 22-410 (savage 24) will shoot the eye out of a squirrel at 100ft. Every single time. So no squirrel in any tree in KS is as good as dead. I would call that mastery.If I don’t know what I might use one for I grab one of my Savage 24’s.
That said, a Jack of all trades is master of none.
