I'd rather my own son see me die on my feet as a free man, than watch him go, broken, into slavery.

Benelli Super Black Eagle II, can use it for deer, dove,pheasant, turkey and HD.

A close second would be my Ruger M77 .270, it has put lots of venison in my freezer.

My CZ 82...
Ergonomically PERFECT for my hand which makes it a superbly natural pointer... Perfectly balanced small commander size... Substantial weight for comfortable shooting... Polygonal rifling gives maximum power and accuracy... I can reload hot zingy 9mm Makarov rounds for it... Eminently reliable... 12+1 Capacity... Wide smooth trigger with a great sensible action... Nice wide hammer and comfortable tail... "Sporty" with a custom look I designed... Pretty and Potent.

Glock 19 hands down.

1. It was a gift from my Dad.
2. It works every time, all of the time.
3. Its easy to shoot.
4. Its easy to maintain and to work on.
5. It holds a lot of high-velocity hollow-points.

Ted Williams edition semi auto 12 gauge. Grandfathers old shotgun that he gave to my father and now in my safe. Performs flawlessly and has taken home plenty of birds.
