Do you collect firearms from a certain era?

I like guns from the early 20th Century, with a little overlap.

I have:

Colt M1849 pocket revolver

Colt New Service in .45 Colt
Colt Woodsman (made 1938)
Colt Officers Model Target
Colt SAA (Second edition) in .357
Colt M357
Colt Detective Special (old model)
Argentine M1927 (built in Argentina on Colt Machinery under Colt supervision0
A Colt Service Ace .22 Conversion kit for the above
M94 Winchester .30-30
M70 Winchester (built 1939)
M1905 Canadian Ross
M1 Garand
Two M1903A3 Springfields, one Smith-Corona and one Remington
M1922 Springfield MK II (.22 LR rifle built by the Army)
Custom '03 Springfield in .35 Brown-Whelen

17th century - modern day

What can I say, I have broad tastes

Seriously though, I have a penchant for American military arms from the first part of the 20th century.

What can I say, I have broad tastes

I have a taste for broads, too.

Colt Woodsmen & 1911's, older but modern S&W's, and old Winchester lever & pumps keep following me home and easily outnember any other types.

But then again, the last new gun I bought outright was a new SIG P232 SL.

Yes; breech loading cartridge guns, BP and Smokeless.

1939 to present, in USN service. With rather large an inconvenient gaps in that.

Most of my milsurps are from WWI, more because that's what I found rather than planning.

1913, 40's, 60's, 80's, 90's and 2010.

I guess that makes me a 20th century fan.

anything of interest

I like single shot rifles. Does that count?

Yeah, from about 1911 to the present.

I collect primarily Colt 22 revolvers. That means the era runs from about 1890 to 1986. My purchases are broader than this, but that is my dominant interest.

Anything in the smokeless powder era interests me.

Not from any set time period, but more and more I'm finding levers to be a whole terrible lot of fun.

I like to say that I am less of a collector, and more of an "accumulator."
