I'd have to go with my Browning Medalist.

Really? PLASTIC pistols.......ACK!







This a double rifle that weighs 1 kilogram (2.2#) and is available in either 22 hornet or 17 HMR

 

[BigBore44]

Mannlicher with custom wood furniture. Just something about those rifles.

 

[MARKMALL]

Any of the high end double shotguns and older S & W revolvers.

 

[MaterDei]

Semi auto pistol: 1911



Revolver: Colt Phyton



Rifle: CZ Rimfires have great lines

 

[Sobel]

ppsh 41 with the drum. Or the svt 40. I also like the old school 1860 colt revolver.

 

[Coop45]

Are bows allowed?

 

[buckeye8]

I'll second the Python:

Well, if you want to include women, then consider the Fausti sisters who own and run one of the larger gun companies in Italy:

 

[marv]

Colt 1903, 1908, Ortgies .32 auto. The Luger has graceful lines and beautiful workmanship but to me it is automatically associated with Nazism, which make it Fugly.

The Diamondback was never made in stainless.

My bad; was thinking of both the Python and Diamondback, picturing them both. The Diamondback was available nickel-finished and blued, but never in stainless.

I also wanted to come back and add the SAA, but then the Winchester 94 came to mind, and then the M1 came to mind, and then....

 

[Black Butte]

Rifle: 1903 Springfield
Handgun: 4" Royal Blue Colt Python
Sword: Albion Sempach

Momma says I'm the most handsomest boy and that my Tanfoglio Stock III is the coolest toy on the block!

 

[303tom]

That would have to be the Ruger Blackhawk in .327 Fed. Mag.

 

[TennJed]

Ruger half lugs with Stag Grips

 

[shotgunjoel]

For an autopistol, it has to be the Colt 1903 Pocket Hammerless.

Revolverwise the Smith and Wesson M&P is very attractive with a 4 or preferably 5 inch barrel.

For rifles, take your pick of some of the pre-WWI Mausers. The M96 Swede, 1895 Chilean, 1909 Argentine or 1908 Brazilian. They are fine pieces of art with their long barrels, slender stocks (at least on the small rings), and excellent fit and finish.

IMO

M4 Spectre
Walther MPL
P08 Luger
AKM
Mini-14 ranch rifle
Sterling SMG
Colt Anaconda
G36C
K98k
etc

 

[whiskeydump]

Sig P210

 

[javjacob]

there are a lot of beautiful revolvers so its hard to name just one. I hate pistols and think they are all butt ugly.
for rifles I really like blued steel, wood stock, bolt or lever action and tube fed. No plastic or detachable magazines

 

[savanahsdad]

auto= 1911 must have real wood grips

revolver = S&W K frame or old style Ruger RedHawk

rifle= ??? must be blued and must be wood, hummm 1894's, Savage99, Win mod70's , Ruger No.1 ??? a nice Parker dbl,,,, I'll say 1894 as I have that one

 

[Mp7]

HK P7.

And the Luger.


Both in their own eras.
