One sentence reviews of every firearm I've ever had

Status
Not open for further replies.
Remington Nylon 66--My first gun; I got bored with it quick.

S&W Model 10-6--This was a dependable and accurate gun; I had a lot of fun using this gun to outshoot guys with USPs.

Llama .22--This cheap Spanish near-pocket sized pistol was the most relaible .22 pistol I've ever had.

Ruger Single Six--It was fun to shoot but annoying to load and unload.

Raven .25--Only gun I ever owned but didn't shoot; I don't think I missed anything.

S&W Model 28-2--Great gun that I just didn't have any use for.

Winchester 1300--Decent gun for the money but the stock was too long and recoil pad was hard as a rock--ouch.

S&W Model 38--second best pocket gun.

S&W Model 66-3--The three inch K-frame is the most perfect revolver ever designed.

S&W Model 6906--This gun really made me appreciate the 1911.

FIE .38 Derringer--Useful only as a paperweight.

Browning Buttmark--This gun was a total piece of crap and I'm embarassed I bought it.

Ruger 10/22--No better and no worse than any other Wal-Mart grade .22; I have no idea why some people like these guns so much.

S&W Model 617--Great revolver that allowed me to combine my two favorite hobbies: shooting and weightlifting.

Colt Government Model--This gun was a two year work in progress that I finally have set up exactly the way I want; my favorite.

S&W Model 642--Best pocket gun in the world.

Kimber 25th Anniversary Custom--This on'e's on order and I can't wait to get it.

Ruger 10/22 = spent too much time customizing it and not enough time shooting it.

Savage Mark II LV/BV = great for the price, terrible trigger (except when replaced) and scope bases too far forward.

Glock 19 = love it.

Remington 870 Wingmaster = almost too pretty to shoot.

Remington 700 = nasty trigger, notwithstanding great design.

NEF Pardner 12 gauge = shouldn't have sold it.
 
In order of procurement

Browning Citori Lightning 20ga. Couldn't ask for a more perfect dove gun for an 11 year old boy.

Browing BPS 12ga. I'd rather have another Citori, but wouldn't we all?

Glock 22C. Bought the hype, bought the gun, bought lots of ammo, 5 years later sold it for $75 less than I paid for it to finance my 2nd 1911.

Ruger 10/22 Walmart Edition. Slickest looking 10/22 and it shoots like every other.

Browning Buckmark Camper. Great little gun, lots of fun, accurate and reliable

Kimber Elite Carry. Girlfriend bought it for me for Christmas; probably a good thing I made her my wife. As for the gun, couldn't be happier.

Bushmaster Dissipator. Evil, Loud, Fun, accurate, about sums it up.

Springfield Loaded 1911. Best thing I ever did with my Glock 22C.

Browning A-Bolt Medallion 7mm Mag. Birthday present; definitely a good thing I made her my wife. As for the gun, great accuracy but why did I want such a beautiful gun to beat around in the woods with?

Things I've shot:

Rem. 870 wingmaster. Probably 40 years old and still runs like a champ

Winchester 101 O/U. Very nice 12ga O/U, too bad my dad couldn't hit very well with it.

Ruger P-95. Ugly, reliable, very little recoil, probably a great starter gun.

Ruger Mk II. No complaints until it was time to clean it (123, NOTIT!)

M1 Garand. First big bore rifle I shot at the NRA Whitington Cntr; wanted a big rifle ever since.

Glock 23. Shot it better than my 22C, but still doesn't compare to a good 1911.

Browning Hi-Power. So-so trigger, threw brass onto my thumb (shoot Lt handed) and slick as all get out; cured myself of wanting one in 50 rounds or less (9mm with trigger job and front/backstrap checkering might be nice though).

Marlin Lever 30-30. Fun, accurate and cheap, what else could you ask for; oh yeah, ammo that's also cheap and available.

Beretta M9. Will never own one and hopefully will only have to shoot it once more to get the qualification score that the Gunner's Mates forgot to record.
 
Browning BPS- never jams or misses, but too long to carry in brush
Remington 700- simple, accurate, good looking
Yugo M48- soft metal
Lyman great plains flintolock: click,ffffft, BOOM, grin
Ruger MkII- the wobbly gun
M1 Garand- love at first ping
CZ 98/22- very accurate, if only the targets were 1' taller
Rem 541- accurate and pretty
Rem 581- accurate and cheap
870 wingmaster- never failed me
Beretta 92- shoots as good as it looks
M96 Swedish Mausers- Scandinavian folk art that shoots
Persian 98/29- Made the way every mauser should be
Czech K98- a little rough around the edges, but solid
Turkish M38- a bastardization that woks
Romanian M44 MN- very loud, very much recoil, wallhanger
Winchester 94- Wish I never sold it
Remington 597- wish I never bought it, glan I sold it
Springfield loaded 1911A1- good reliable .45
Remington 788 .243- my first hunting rifle, wish my dad would have kept this one for me
03A3 springfield- suprisingly accurate
 
Oooh, I didn't know we could do guns we've shot. Just the MILSPEC's for now.

M-16A2: Really a good solid battle rifle.

M-9: Certainly no 1911, but not a bad pistol

HK MP5KS: The most fun you can have with your clothes on.

M-249 SAW: Like pulling the trigger on a hornets nest. (Sooo cool!)

M-60 in any form: Somebody else said the worst features of the best MG's rolled into one, or something like that. Ditto :barf:

XM-21: Happy I got to shoot it, it was an amazing weapon.

Barret Light .50: When you absolutely positively have to shoot through a building, this is the gun.
 
ONes I have now...
Ruger sp101:best snub in the world
Ruger Speed six:now if I can only learn to hit something with it......
Glock 17:ultimate offencive handgun:100% reliable(if ugly)
Ruger 10/22:squirrle slayer
Generic 16 ga shotgun that was my Fathers:amazingly accurate for an 18":kicks like a mule

ones I traded or sold:
Winchester 410 bolt action:had no use for it
Rem 870 20ga:good skeet gun when I was 15
sks:not into long guns,but a good shooter

S/W mod 38 bodyguard:sorry I traded it:hurt to shoot
Taurus mod 805:My wife's gun(she's sorry I traded it:D )

Ruger mkII:good plinker,but didn't use it enough
Colt Combat Commander:50% reliable:didn't feel like putting any $ into it to get it to work:couldn't hit crap anyway
 
Just a few:

Ruger MkII: Jam-o-matic

FEG PJK-9HP: Reliable, and way too accurate for a $200 gun.

M1 Garand: I wish it could talk

RC 98k: Ditto
 
I forgot about the guns I no longer have...

Star BM: Great gun for the price, fits my hand VERY well, but too heavy for CCW and not quite accurate enough for serious range use.

Taurus 94: Crappy DA trigger and not accurate at all.

Erma/Excam 22lr: Cheap, but fun copy of PPK in 22lr.

Chris
 
OK, I'll play....

SW model 1 3rd. change in .22 BP short- I can never shoot it, but seeing the patent stamp on top of the barrel that says "18"- 71 just gives me chills. A gift from my father.

SW 642- The perfect carry snubbie and my longtime carry gun passed to my wife "temporarily" for over a year.

CZ P01- Where have you been all my life?

Springfield Armory 1911-A1 Loaded- Worn bluing and MIM parts that need to be replaced still warm my heart.

Handguns
SP101 ~ Love it, superior to most smiths IMHO. Small but will digest 357Mags all day long.
Ruger 22/45 ~ Love it, accurate and a must have for taking newbies. Like it better than the MkII, because the mag release is where it should be.
Steyr M40 ~ Superior to a Glock in everyway except aftermarket accessories.

Long Guns
2xAR15 Lowers ~ bought them out of spite for the gov'ment in the PRK, hate M16's and AR's in general. Will probably never seen a upper in its lifetime, want to sell it for a GP100.
M1A National Match ~ Rolls Royce in 308.
Remington 572BDL pump .22LR Rifle ~ like a 12 gauge shotgun, but 1/100th the ammo price and ZERO recoil.
Ruger 10/22 ~ Every boy needs one. That's a statement, not an opinion.
Mauser 98K in 308 ~ Germans make great cars, hotdogs, beer, and guns.
Browning BPS ~ in 20 gauge. I love bottom eject.
 
Glock 17 - first gun, still goes bang everytime

Ruger Single Six - cylinder pin kept coming loose in recoil causing the cylinder to lock up- didn't like the trigger or sight - traded it and have never regretted it.

Beretta .22 - Jetfire? - Bought for exwife at her request - she shot it once and decided she didn't like it - I shot it twice and didn't like it either - traded it for Glock 19 high capacity magazines.

Browning Hi-power 9mm Blue - Love it, shoot well with it even though the trigger isn't great - beautiful design and style - a classic

Glock 19 - bought then inherited from ex-wife - a nice carry gun that works everytime

Ruger .22 Mark II Stainless slabsided barrell target comp - shot smallest group ever from a handgun for me - with reddot - 10 shots at 15 yards off a bench 9 shots covered by a dime in one ragged hole and all 10 covered by a nickel - nice to shoot all day and cheap

Kimber 1911 Combat Carry .45 ACP - The perfect carry gun - love it - never meant to buy it - but I picked it up at the gun store and couldn't put it back - it just felt so nice, so perfect

Springfield 1911 - bought it stock - then had Springfield do a carry package and trigger job on it - then installed an ambisafety and adjustable low mount night sights - then sent it to Clark Custom and had an accuracy job on it. The most accurate Centerfire Handgun I own, with a 2 lb trigger that is sweet.

Taurus Tracker 4" SS ported revolver in 45 ACP - nice practice gun for trigger control and keeps me from chasing brass when I don't feel like putting down a tarp on my range.

Romanian AK47 with reddot- Cheap to shoot - but not very accurate and a horrible trigger.

Colt AR15 Target Comp Hbar .223 - very accurate and almost no recoil - fun to shoot - have a Leupold 3x9 - scope on it

Winchester 94 in 30-30 - Like the feel of it, like the look of it, like the history of it, am not a bad shot with it - just don't shoot it much

M1 Garand from CMP 30-06- a beautiful piece of history that is as lethal today as it was then - taught me the meaning of M1 thumb - love it

Mossberg Marine 12 gauge 18" barrell - never really shoot it much - saw it on sale at Walmart and figured well I do "need" a shotgun and it shouldn't rust to easily

Ruger 10/22 SS - shoot it alot - still like it - shoot cheap and shoot often - also use it for varmit control - possum, racoons, ect...

Springfield M1A - NM - .308 Living in Illinois decided to get one before they were banned - very nice 2 stage trigger - love it.

Savage 10fp Le2b - .308 - heavy barrell in a McMillan stock with a 2 1/2 lb trigger, with a Leupold 4.5 x 14 30mm LR scope - and Farrell base - and handloaded ammo - very nice.

I can't remember every firearm I've ever had, so I'll stick to the latest. JT

Colt WWI replica - My, oh, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my and a 3.5-pound trigger too.
 
Glock 34: I have held and shot many different pistols and never have I once thought I would have need or use for another hand gun other than my G34.

Win1300: smooth as a nova but cheaper and better than a 870, feed it whatever and it'll spit fire all the time.

Mini14: I'm not fooling myself, it just needs to hit steel and if I think that I'm happy with it.

Rem1187: *dial #* Hello remington, I need to replace a part....:(
 
Stevens .22 Bolt action......Still a great rifle almost 40 years later.

Ruger RST-6.......More sentimental value than anything else, though still a great packing fun/hike gun.

Ruger KMK-512......Reason the RST-6 is mostly sentimental value.

AMT Govt............Worst piece o' crap I ever held, not sorry to see it go, poor guy.

Colt Mark IV.......Replaced the AMT and I'm still in love.

Glock 26........Replaced the Taurus; way more better; carry it sometimes.

Taurus PT22......Fun fun fun. And cute?

Having some fun dredging up the past (and besides, every single gun I mentioned earlier I no longer have :( )...

Heriage Rough Rider .22 7": Too accurate for how inexpensive it was
F. I. E. Mod. E15 in .22 Magnum: Loud.
Bersa Thunder .380: Bond... James Bond.
Vektor SP2: Sig-level quality with a Beretta operating system and generation II Glock grip.
