Hello, fellow vault hunters! As we have all been exploring Pandora for the past week or so, we have inevitably come across piles and piles of loot in the form of guns. Since we all have our specialties, we have decided what loot is vital and what loot is junk in our hands. This means that we have all created our own personal gun collections, with rare and extremely useful weapons firmly strapped to our sides whenever we head out on another mission. Here we can tell, discuss, and brag about our guns along with the stories that accompany their origins.

Myself always prioritizing firepower, I currently have two powerful and unique shotguns. Miss Moxxi's Heart Breaker [http://borderlands.wikia.com/wiki/Miss_Moxxi%27s_Heart_Breaker] is my go-to weapon, as the high firepower, great accuracy, and magnificent fire-rate make for a near unstoppable combination. A more recent addition to my collection is Deliverance [http://borderlands.wikia.com/wiki/Deliverance], which is one of the most fascinating weapons I have seen. The weapon's ability to fire shells even after it has been discarded is a very useful feature. Surprisingly enough, this weapon came from the corps of a dead enemy, an unexpectedly rare treat compared to its more likely place as the centerpiece of a chest.

I'm using Sledge's Shotgun, but it's level 18 and I'm level 30 so I'm thinking of Changing. I just don't want to lose my only Orange weapon! So conflicted...

I am using 2 sniper rifles one does 400 damage but is burst fire while the other does 300 but shoots normally. I am also using a pistol that does 288 and shoots as fast as you pull. All the guns are above 90 accurate and are jakobs except the burst fire snipe which is a dahl.

Also what is everyone elses Badass Rank mine is 3647 currently.

YOU GOT THE DELIVERANCE?! I've been camping the slot machine for AGES trying to get that! And you got it from a corpse?! IMPOSSIBLE!

I hate you so much right now...

Just finished my first run through with the commando.

5 E-Tech weapons (2 ARs, 2 Pistols, 1 Rocket Launcher)
2 Orange weapons (1 Sniper, 1 Shotgun)

Gotta say, E-Tech are incredibly fun to use and useful 5-10 levels past their lvl requirement at the least. In comparison my Orange guns are simply underwhelming. Give me lasers that home in on their target over explosive buckshot any day of the week. Still Explosive buckshot IS pretty cool too.

I got a sniper rifle that fires like a minigun and applies Slag. I never use the thing since Bunker dropped a Jakobs sniper that does nearly 1700 damage, but I keep it in my bank due to sheer awesome. I also love the Bane. Horrible gun but fucking hilarious. My friend found a Launcher called Name Dropper that fires like a mortar and does over 9000 damage in a huge explosion. He got it when he was around level 20 and I hate him for it.

My favorite weapon I got so far is the Extra large Splatgun, or as I like to call it, the Mario Cannon. it shoots fireballs that travel in an arc. It's a Tediore, and when it throw the gun, the explosion releases two grenades which also explode. It's pretty freaking sweet. It's too low a level for me to use anymore though. :(

Honorable mention to shotgun 1340.

"YES. MORE BULLETS."

I'm wearing the Maliwan skin for my character, all my weapons are Maliwan and my shield is made by Maliwan, and of course everything is in their trademark colors and sleek design! Unfortunately I haven't found any decent grenades by Maliwan yet, which makes me sad. That bandit grenade is a scar on my perfectly harmonious uniform!

I have 1 shock pistol, 1 slag pistol, 1 fire SMG and 1 corosive SMG. I have yet to ever need anything but these weapons (and Miss Lanka, my turret <3).

Michael Mamaril gave me a level 15 Jakobs shotgun that deals 98x18 damage. I've out levelled it now, but for 10 levels or so it was my favourite weapon.

...Did you get the Deliverance from the nature preserve? That's where I got mine. >_>

I think my favorite weapon so far is a Maliwan slag sniper rifle that does 1234 dmg. It's just such a nice number.

Though I've also found this sick pistol; Thunderball Fists. I've killed myself with it tons of times, since its special effect is to create this shock orb that explodes after a few seconds that does friendly fire damage. I tend to use it when I need second winds, since I don't have to worry about killing myself and all.

Similarly, I've found a shield called the Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, and that thing is even more suicidal. You randomly spout shock things that damage you and everyone around you when ya take damage, and it spouts boosters that spout off said shock things when you pick them up. Truly that shield was well named. I certainly said "what the fuuuuck" when I got totally killed by the damn thing.

One thing worth mentioning ive found so far is the Hyperion Bee.

Its an Amp Shield, which at about lvl 30 gives my attacks a ~3000 damage boost.

And unlike other Amp Shields it doesnt cost shield points, meaning so long as im not hit i keep the damage bonus.

Its worth mentioning its flavour text is "Float like a butterly..."

Also i found a couple of orange grenade mods throughout my playing, one being the Torgue Bonus Package which is effectively a double MIRV grenade, and the Maliwan Leech which is a longbow-type grenade that detonates into 6 orbs of hot electric death that track targets and steal health for me.

Im still on the lookout for a Hellfire, i know its out there...

I'm using a Vladof Spinigun and a Hyperion Apparatus pistol. I have a lot of snipers too, I'm not sure which I want to use but for now I settled with a sexy Dahl with incendiary - only problem is, I can only carry 3 magazines which get used up very quickly due to the scoped mode. Time to upgrade my sniper capacity.

Yeah, I got it in the exact same place. I guess there's a bigger chance for it to spawn in the nature preserve than in other places?

I fell in love with a blue TORGUE shotgun that does 8154x13, it eats ammo like crazy (4 rounds per shot) but it has saved me many times. it has a decent spread and can hit targets about 20 feet away and hurt them but if they get in my face they kinda vanish in red mist and EXPLOSION.
