I shared a list earlier. I've been blessed. Thinking back, rather than a specific gun for each purpose, I remembered when I was first married, going to college and church mouse poor. I had a Savage 24 DL 22/20. It did everything I asked of it. Hunt fur and feathers, plink, guard the house trailer and bust pasture clays. After getting a job, but not much more well off, I bought the 870 TB I still have and shoot to this day. First deer, first wood duck, many birds, one groundhog, one coyote, and many, many 25, 50, 75s and one 100 at trap. The heavy use probably is why the receiver cracked, one action bar seperated, the trigger assy went haywire, and the forend split. Now I look in the safe, scratch my head and wonder if life wasn't simpler in 1966.
