Guns with Soul

In looking over my small collection, (20 something) I realize I've steadily kept most of the guns with soul, and let the others go.

My guns with soul are both lever actions
my Savage 99 in Savage .303
and my brand new strait stocked
BLR in .308
The Winchester 1898, I mean any shotgun with an exposed hammer has got to have soul.


and I think some polymer guns can have soul. I think the Beretta NEOS is a unique kinda soulful polymer gun (ofcourse I'm biased cause I have one :) ) but hey.
 
my one and only 1943 Winchester M1. It's been rebuilt a few times, so it probably saw some action somewhere
 
I have a few:

Model 1894 Winchester mfg. 1941. Lots of personality. The action is a little loose but fun to shoot.

Model 1916 Spanish Short Rifle made from a 1893 Mauser during the 30's by both sides in the Spanish Revolution.

Type I Japanese Rifle picked up from a sniper who had been made into hamburger on Okinawa. The Marine-Raider who brought it back gave it to me a couple months ago. I cherish this rifle. (My Father was on Okinawa also)

Pre-Model 28 Highway Patrolman mfg. 1955. Revolvers like this are what gave Smith & Wesson it's reputation. Lots of holster wear but all you need is to hold it in your hands. Then you'll see what I mean.

Good thread!

It's where we all started, and where our kids will fondly remember us.
Amen.
