My beautiful Ruger Mark II pistol. She's as accurate as all get out, cheap to feed, easy to shoot and she's scoped. She makes me look like I know what I'm doing behind a gun. LOL She's my 'fun gun' and I love her. Even though she did break my heart by being difficult to put a new safety on........I forgive her. She was just playing hard to get.

I really like shooting my black powder .50 Hawkin a lot. I makes you slow and make each shot count. I also enjoy my Single Ten, it's cheap to shoot and again being single action it makes you slow down a little. Of course the 1911 is the pistol I shoot best. This is a tough question.

Nothing better that cutting sub MOA holes with a free floated 20" then swapping the upper for my LMT M4 with Eotch and keeping 6 pop cans on the air AR the same time!

Great Fun!

I was medically separated in 97 just before the 240g hit the line units so I never got to play with one.

We had the PIG "M60" and the SAW "M249. I imagine the 240g would be almost like a SAW in 7.62 mm.

My dad have me a tikka/ithica 25-06 with a heavy 26 inch barrel on it when I got my eagle scout. Never met a bullet it doesn't like. You wouldn't believe what it'll do to a rabbit. Or a deer. Or an elk. Love that gun.

My favorite would have to be the m1 garand, but it only gets shot about once a year. My favorite regular shooter is on of the 1911's.

I like my 30-30 most; even though I seem to hit more consistently with my 30-306s.

Mainly because I can shoot at 400 or so yards fairly inexpensively.
