Gun owners, What do you have?

[Dr. wonderful]

38. Revolver.

It's my mom's. I prefer a 45. Handgun or maybe a 9MM

 

[Big Cat]

i have a ruger 10/22 from my grandpa, a mosin nagant, and a marlin model 925.

 

[FURY_007]

CETME, outfitted with surplus G3 wooden furniture and mags
1941 Enfield mk. III
1944 Mosin Nagant
Ruger 10/22 from my dad

The Colt 1903, basically the precursor to the 1911, small hammerless pistol,
and a High Standard .22 9-shot revolver, its a fun little gun

 

[Frost27]

I grew up with old military clunkers and actually do WW2 reenacting in my spare time. Problem now is that whenever someone mentions an arm younger than 60 years old my eyes glaze over as I struggle to understand.

Mauser k98k (1937) - 8mm
Mosin-Nagant (1927) - 7.62 R
Mauser Gewehr '98 (1916) - 8mm
Springfield 1903 (1903) - 30.06
Springfield 1861 Rifle Musket
Arisaka Type 38 - 6.5 Jap (on the way)

Some nice history here though: you shoot that M1 Carbine Frost27? Or is that a collector's piece?

I agree with the Luger reloading action YellowCellPhone - our German unit officer has one. He's used to it now but he tried teaching me the other day. Sexy-looking though.

I do shoot the M1 but not often. My grandfather had it 'sporterized' when he got back by way of a lighter stock so it isn't 100% original. The barrel is like a mirror though, not a single spot of rust.

I must say your collection has me drooling. I love my K98k, still has the Reich marks stamped on it. Trouble is the ammunition is so expensive out here, I am going to have to fall back to online ordering. In most cases it runs around $30 - $40 for 20 rounds.
My dad had a 7.7jap type 99 and a .44 russian that my grandfather's brother took off of a Japanese officer at Iwo Jima (the pistol, the rifle he bought in the States) my goal is to have at least one gun from each of the major powers in WW2. Eventually my dad's will pass to me and I am planning on getting a Mosin Nagant soon.

Edit: Nagants are great, the trouble is buying them is a crapshoot on bore quality. Especially online. Fantastic shooters if you get a good one though.

 

[WolfThomas]

I've only got one gun in my name at the moment (my dad owns quite a few). It's a remington 7615, a pump action rifle in .223. I'd post pics, but I haven't finished working on it. I've modified it, but not too over the top, I can't stand some of the "tacti-cool'd" version out there.

Thinking of buying a stoegar coach gun and I'm working on getting my sporting handguns license.

 

[Frost27]

Mauser K98k - 8mm Mauser
Savage Axis - .270 Winchester
Beretta 92FS - 9mm

Those Mausers are a trip to shoot at the range, aren't they? The steel buttplate is... unforgiving at best ;-) I've also got an M9, since it's the same pistol I carry in the USN. As for your savage... one is on my "To Buy" list for sure!

In addition... lets see. 3 AR15's, 1 Yugoslavian AK, Glock 26 subcompact 9mm, and a Taurus PT1911 .45

Freedom, it's a beautiful thing!

I love the k98. It's got the perfect weight for the round and shoots straight as an arrow. Very fun shooter.

I like the M9, it's smooth shooting and accurate enough to suit me, plus the ammunition doesn't break the bank. I have to admit I enjoy the 1911 a bit more though, it's got a perfect balance of accuracy, recoil and feel in the hand.

The Axis is a surprisingly good shooter for the money. I think I paid around $250 for it and it shot 1/4" groups right out of the box. My only gripe is that with it being a .270 (I almost bought a .308 version) with that lightweight hollow stock, it is a shoulder thumping beast. It's not so bad for the first few shots but you definitely feel it after 10 or so. The whole gun only weights 6.5 lbs, about 1.5 more than my .22. Not much to soak recoil.

 

[Dirty Hipsters]

I have a Beretta M92 and a Taurus Judge revolver.

Spoiler

I'll be picking up a Makarov pistol later this year.

Spoiler

I've always wanted a Calico Liberty 3 machine pistol, but sadly I can't own any kind of automatic weapon in my state (plus they're pretty rare).

[keve4433]

Mauser K98k - 8mm Mauser
Savage Axis - .270 Winchester
US Issue M1 Carbine - .30 Carbine
Winchester 1200 - 2 3/4" 12 gauge
Winchester model 68 - .22
Colt 1911 - .45ACP
Beretta 92FS - 9mm

I have often found that there are few things as stress relieving as a day at the range. I started shooting when I was 6 years old with my father and have loved it as a hobby ever since.

I have a 12gu Remington 870 Wingmaster
A 20gu side by side coach gun
A hundred summat old remington .22 pump action
A .44 Blackhawk revolver
A S&W M500 magnum
and a few others but those are my favorite.

 

[Frost27]

I have never shot a .500 Smith but I would love the chance. The R. Lee Ermey Lock n' Load episode where they show him firing one in slow motion sold me. I don't know if I would buy one though. Of course that would probably change once I actually got my hands on one.

 

[Thaluikhain]

I've always wanted a Calico Liberty 3 machine pistol, but sadly I can't own any kind of automatic weapon in my state (plus they're pretty rare).

Spoiler

Aren't they close to non-existent? The Calico Liberty stuff looks high-tech and all, but did anyone at all buy them other than the people who supply high-tech looking guns for movies?

I have a deactivated (IE, mechanism missing) pistol my grandfather took as a trophy in WW2.

 

[The Funslinger]

My Uncle carries a Jericho handgun with him to almost every occasion.
It's strange, creepy, homicidal, I usually stay away from him because of his spontaneous rage, but overall he's a swell guy.

Carries a sidearm and has rage issues... nice... that said, I'm probably going to get a concealed weapon license, when I move to America after I'm done in the Royal Marines.

Currently I have a Cogswell & Harrison double barrel shotgun. When in America, I'd like to get a Colt 1911 and customize it aesthetically.

 

[The Funslinger]

i own some kind of 9mm handgun, not sure about the details. it's black and pretty generic looking i guess. it serves it's purpose as well as any other gun i could own. and i don't need to own any others.

There's no need to, but provided you're not a psycho, gun collecting can be a nice hobby.

 

[antidonkey]

Currently have two handguns.
A Taurus 92AFS 9mm full frame stainless. It's large, heavy, and very cool looking. It's pretty much a Baretta with a few minor tweaks to prevent lawsuits.
The other is a S&W Bodyguard .38 snub nose 5 shot revolver. I use it for concealed carry as it's small and crazy light weight.
I want a rifle and a shotgun but I really have no use for them. I don't really hunt so they'd just collect dust in the closet. Plus while I know a little about handguns, I really don't know much about long barrel guns. We'll see how long I can keep the urges under control before cracking.

 

[Riff Moonraker]

Lets see...

I have

A Remington 7mm Magnum
A .45 Glock
A Mossberg 12 ga. select-a-choke pump shotgun
A .22 Marlin
A PSE Stratoflite compount bow
A couple of swords, multiple bo staves, throwing stars, throwing knives, and a pretty large collection of assorted knives.

I think thats about it.

 

[tsb247]

Collecting/shooting is sort of a passion of mine. I don't think I want to publish a full list of my firearms online though. I'll just say that I LOVE my AR-15 (Eagle Arms M15 with some custom parts) and my FN Five-Sven! I also REALLY love my M1 Garand. It's definately the finest battle impliment ever devised!

My 'Wishlist' would include the following:

CZ75
CZ58
AK74
Springfield Trap Door
Springfield 1903
Springfield M1A (standard configuration with a wooden stock)
Springfield SOCOMII
Oringinal Colt 1911A1
Kimber Custom 1911
FN SCAR
FN PS90
FN FS2000
Gyrojet (good luck finding one - they are a novelty)
Kel Tec KSG

The list is by no means complete.

 

[Colour Scientist]

I have one of the most bad-ass guns known to man:

Spoiler: Brace yourself

Nah, there's no real gun culture in Ireland and I'm the kind of person who would accidentally shoot themselves in the foot.

 

[Tuesday Night Fever]

Colt AR-15 HBAR, .223
Remington M870, 12-gauge
Springfield Armory Mil-Spec M1911, .45
Springfield Armory Super Match M1A, .308

 

[Frost27]

Colt AR-15 HBAR, .223
Remington M870, 12-gauge
Springfield Armory Mil-Spec M1911, .45
Springfield Armory Super Match M1A, .308

How is the Springfield 1911? I have been thinking about getting a hi-cap once they become more readily available in the market.

 

[LetalisK]

I have a Glock 26 and a Bushmaster M4. I want to sell the bushmaster, though, since I hardly ever use it and get a cheapo shotgun and an even smaller handgun.

 

[Baby Tea]

Well right now I've just got myself my Mossberg 535 12 Gauge (I call it 'Judges') that I use for deer, duck, and coyotes (And black-birds if I'm at my buddy's farm and his corn is in season. Damn birds eat so much). But eventually I'd like to grab a Mossberg 434 lever action, and a Savage .17 HMR as well.

After that, anything else I get would be just for fun. Those 3, though, will cover all my hunting needs.
I also have zero interest in owning a hand-gun.
Long-guns are my thing.
