What gun are you?

[nemesisenforcer]

Me? I think I'd be a PTR 91.

Here's why:

It's robust and solid, but not going to win any beauty contests.

Designed in Germany but made in America, just like me.

Powerful, but not magnum level.

A true original design, just like I strive to be.

It can feel a variety of rolls, from sniper rifle to SAW with the right accessories.

Not overly high priced, but not hardly cheap either.

Time tested in a variety of situations, similar to my life.

Easily identifiable and visually distinctive.

Can be fed a variety of diet and still keep running.

Would be extremely handy in a zombie apocalypse.

What would you be?

[Hickory]

Don't do this to me.
I tried to think this morning and got a charley horse in my brain.
If I try to think again and get another charley horse I don't know
what will happen, I never had it happen twice in one day.

[Hickory]

Kidding aside;
Ulfberht .338 Lapua

[MaryB]

Mosin Nagant M91/30... old, over weight, somewhat broken down but still kicking!

[Charley]

1894 Winchester in .30/30. Lots like me, get the job done without being flashy.

[Artful]

1911 .45 Pistol - Overly large Bore with limited capacity but always can get the job done.

And my wife says -
Until she finds the right combination of controls to push
I'm a big paperweight

[Hogtamer]

Well used 1953 Browning Light 12. Lots of bluing worn but a nice patina that doesn't require a lot of shine - downed a lot of ducks and doves over the years. Been dropped, scraped, banged and shot more than you'd think a gun could stand, but still dependable. Other than a couple of minor replacements like a new ejector, still original equipment. My best friend is wd-40, clean and lube with just a couple of sprays. Oh the stories I could tell.

[Love Life]

Double fisted tech-9's.

A Tubb's 2000 in 308. Shoot a Hummingbird's head off at 1000 yards.

[sparky45]

I think they call that spray and pray.:kidding:

There I was, larger than life...

It was 2014 and I was getting ready to leave Nevada. I wander into my favorite gunstore, and what do I see? A pair of NIB tec-9 pistols. For some unknown reason, I have always wanted one.

I got to jaw-jacking with the man at the counter and he offered the pair to me for $300 out the door. I said no, and have regretted it ever since. It would have been so cool double fisting tec-9's at the range.

[country gent]

My trusty old well used M1A. Its on its fourth barrel the heavy bishop walnut stock tells a story with the dings and scratches. Rifle took me to high master and never let me down ( although I might have let it down a few times) Its just all the memories and time spent with it.

That wasn't a bad price - having done my UZI and a friends Mac-11 Arnold style you ain't going to get groups to brag about but you will get a grin that's hard to get rid of.

At that rate you only got 25 ACP and 22 LR to go!

Right there with you, nothing flashy but solid and dependable.

[Ithaca Gunner]

I guess I would be an M-1 Garand.

A little old and heavy, kinda beat up over the years, maybe in need of a few replacement parts, but still able to reach out and connect, stubborn sticking to my original chambering, and kinda proud of my accomplishments.

[starbits]

m2 50 cal - Designed a long time ago, too heavy to carry, expensive to feed and everybody loves me.

[Old Scribe]

May seem a bit strange, but my .50 caliber flintlock. Real old school, reliable not too complicated andgets the job done with a woosh...bang![smilie=w:

[dale2242]

Trapdoor Springfield.
Old ,slow, and long in the tooth.
Still able to get the job done....dale

[JonB_in_Glencoe]

Rem. 870 wingmaster 12ga.

Kind of an all around general purpose firearm, can do most anything, but not an expert at any. And just like the 870 I inherited from my Dad, that shot countless rounds of trap over a 25 year period, my knees are just as wornout as the shell latches on that old gun, and often fail when the heat is on.

[castalott]

Iver Johnson .410 break open single shot....A little uncommon but familiar just the same. I don't throw much shot but I could probably still take down butterflys and very small birds. Of course I don't make much noise or fuss either. I am expensive to feed and quite particular in what I like. No one appreciates me until some nasty job needs to be done and a simple solution is needed...

Dale

[HABCAN]

No question or doubt, Single Action Army, .44-40.

[TXGunNut]

My old GF would say I'm a single shot smoothbore derringer but she's still mad at me, don't pay her no mind. ;-)

[Thumbcocker]

.44 Ruger Bisley.

[Combat Diver]

I instruct and repair these down range.

[lbaize3]

Double barrel recoilless rifle shooting beehive rounds. Don't need no stinking reloads!

[scarry scarney]

Just like others, 1911.

A few "parts" replaced, a couple repaired, overall "slightly worn", but still functional. Show a few battle scars (dents, dings and scratches), could use a "reblue" but that would take away all the character. In need of new set of sights.

[woody1]

At that rate you only got 25 ACP and 22 LR to go!

Well, there's also............way down the line........CB caps & BB caps!
Sometimes I feel a little like mebe a 22 short but, of course, in a rapid fire rifle like mebe a Winchester Model 90. Be still my heart, certainly not one of those new-fangled "automatics!" Regards, Woody

[nagantguy]

Ruger mini 14 ranch rifle, useful on truck tractor woodlot barn and battle field 5 20 30 or 40 rounds depending on the size number and temper of varmint to be dealt with, reliable durable sturdy can be counted on in a pinch.

[tygar]

1911!!!

[twc1964]

I guess im like my glock 21. Thick around the middle, sort of ugly but i always get done what needs doing.

[historicfirearms]

Two words, Asperly Aimless. :-)
Most people avoid me and I like it that way. Those that know me come to understand what a real friend is.

[waksupi]

I'm like my old Northwest trade gun. Known to go off half cocked at times, kind of smelly when working, a bit rough and rusty around the edges, but get the job done.

[David2011]

I would probably be a 7-1/2" Blackhawk in .45 Colt or a Garand. Both for the same reasons- versatile, traditional, in for the long run.

David

[texassako]

I don't have one but I would probably be a Handi-rifle with a bunch of extra barrels. Rough around the edges and a jack of all trades. My wife would probably add cheap to the description, but I prefer economical.

[salty dog]

I'm a Winchester 1886 in 33 WCF. Old fashioned, on the heavy side, and ammo is hard to find, but still works when needed.
