Pick a handgun, rifle and shotgun for the rest of your life.

[Powderman]

1. Colt 1911A1 (probably the Gunsite pistol)

2. Remington 870, 12 Ga.

3. Springfield 1903 w/C stock.

 

[DarkKnight01]

my Remington 870 12ga with a pistol grip to change out from hunting to defence...

my Savage .30-06 bolt action it has a high power scope... to reach out and touch someone..

and for CCW hmm just one?..... perhaps a HK USPC in .45

 

[mr hanky]

very hard,

Rem 870 pump,

Browning Hi Power 9mm

Rifle, hmmm, probably an M1, (the other two I own, dang!)

thought provoking though, thanks

 

[4570Rick]

The premise:

I can only have one rifle (any action) one shotgun (again, any action) and one handgun (wheel or autofeed).

These firearms will have to last me as long as I live.

I don't want exotic.

I don't want complicated.

S&W 657 .41 mag...Powerful enough to do anything I need to do.

Winchester '97...My '97 works very well and there are tons of parts to be had.

Springfield M1 A....30 cal, lot of ammo and parts out there.

 

[Quickdraw Limpsalot]

I'm going to go against the flow a bit and say...

Handgun - Ruger Super Blackhawk .44mag in 10.5" barrel
(I'm a big guy, so if I absolutely HAD to conceal it, I'd find a way.)
Rifle - Henry lever .22lr
Shotgun - Rem. 870, garden variety... but I'd quickly swap my shotgun stamp for a Marlin lever in .35 Rem or 45/70.

 

[Brian Williams]

Handgun would be a S&W 19 K frame 3" barrel with a round grip.
Rifle would be a Marlin 1894c
Shotgun would be a S&W 35 J frame 6" barrel. I can shoot 22lr shot thru it for snakes but would prefer to shoot slugs for small game and fowl, I know it's a handshotgun, but I really do not care for shotguns.


If I lived out west I would want a S&W 58 and a Marlin 1894 in a C configuration, 18 in barrel and straight stock in 41 mag

 

[Ol' Badger]

Marlin 336 .30/30
Ruger Mod. 77 in 6.55 swedish
S&W Mod 60 .357/.38
Spyderco Delica

 

[GreenFurniture]

Hmmmm.

Shotgun - Winchester 21

Rifle - Winchester 1894 30WCF

Handgun - Colt 1911

There ain't no beating the classics.

 

[smokemaker]

Ithaca Mod 37 with combo
S&W Mod 29 classic DX
Steyr scout .308

 

[Iain]

I wanna play too.

Handgun - don't know a lot about these. Like the looks of Hipowers.

Rife - one of them enfield actions converted to 7.62x39 in a synthetic stock that takes AK mags.

Shotgun - a fine British made side by side. It's in my blood.

 

[W Turner]

Handgun - Glock 30

Rifle - Springfield Scout Squad Rifle

Shotgun - Remington 870 with a 21" bbl. in 20 ga.

W

 

[ReadyontheRight]

M1 Garand - lots of clips and 30-06 reloading equipment.
870 12ga 24" bbl, mag tube extension.
Ruger GP100 4" stainless w/some sort of quick-detatch scope.

Not the best for CCW and no .22 for plinking/practice/survival, so it's a good thing we're not limited like this.

 

[only1asterisk]

St. Johns,

You can't play, you're ENGLISH! You have to stand aside and appear disinterested.

Handgun: S&W Model of 1950 45 ACP
Shotgun: Remington 870
Rifle: Pre'64 Winchester Model 70 30-06

With "The rest of your life" thrown in there I'm going to have to consider what might be. I could end up with arthritis, or in a weakened elderly state where I might not be able to rack the slide on a .45 with a 16#. In that case my choices will be:

1, 4" Ruger GP100 .357/.38
2, Remington 870
3, Savage model 10 in .243 or a Rem 700 in 7mm-08.

 

[ny32182]

1) VEPR K 7.62x39
2) P226 9mm
3) I'm not familiar with shotguns, but probably a classic 870 pump or something along that line... plain vanilla shotgun.

 

[Gandalf]

My three gun arsenal (which I actually have) :

pistol: Glock 21
rifle: S/A SOCOM 16
shotgun: Rem 870 18"

These three will do just fine.

 

[Werewolf]

Hmmmmm...

1st the Easy Choice - Rem 870 with 21" bbl

Toss up between 1911 and S&W 686 with a slight preference for the 1911

Toss up between M1 Garand and a more handy lever action chambered in 45-70 (is there such a thing?).

 

[sundog]

I usually don't play the what if games, but this one is interesting and easy

1911, prolly a Kimber
Ithaca 37 in 12 ga
Rem 700 VS in .308

sundog

 

[Gunsnrovers]

1) Ted Yost 1* (replace Novaks with Heinies as an option)

2) Ithaca 37 DSPS

3) M1 Garand

Marlin 60
Ruger gp100 or Sigp220

[Duke of Lawnchair]

Assuming that the Lord, my shepherd watches over me and helps me refrain from doing something absolutely stupid and that I remain in good physical health:

- Glock 34
- Benelli M1S90 12ga w/18.5" barrel, rifle sights, straight stock & +4 extension
- AR15 w/Colt flattop upper and 20" A2 profiled barrel

 

[Colt46]

I'll play

Remington 870 Wingmaster
Weatherby ultralight .338-06
Ruger .45 Bisley

Not much for social situations, but that's what I'd want to shoot/carry for all eternity. I only currently have the Ruger.
