I mention the Winchester 62 & 63 back in post 16.Winchester Model 63. Beautiful rifle. Surprised no one has mentioned it yet.

I always look for 22's in gunshops, gunshows, and so forth. I figure I am more likely to get more use out of them than any center fire I can think of.
How about the Stevens "gill gun" autoloaders? These click-clack guns are really interesting.
French MAS-45's, which are miniature Mausers. I was lucky enough to go thru a pile of them at Navy Arms when they were being imported and managed to find two new ones (new is NEW) that actually have the "Mauser" in the Mauser lens shaped logo on the receivers. No matter if Mauser marked or not, they are absolutely gorgeous.
