Like most of you i spend a lot of time involved with guns...buying..selling...reading about them..shopping for things i cant afford, shooting them, hunting with them, reloading for them, etc...i read often about guns that are "legendary" and i see many descriptions of guns that have a "cult " following...hmmm Im not sure i know what a "cult" following is but i do know some legends and i think i know a few that fit both descriptions.
The Winchester Model 70...certainly legendary and also i think in the pre-war pre 64 config..a cultish gun
The Remington 788..surely a cult gun...i own 4 of them and love them but to me..not a legendary gun
Smith Model 41...Legend..cult gun
Winchester Model 21...Legend...cult..not so much i think
Winchester Model 97....both i think
Browning A-5...Legend..at least to me...cult? dunno
Colt SAA....Legend..cult? dunno
the list goes on
what is a cult gun vs a legendary gun? (and who decides?)
