    My favorite that I own, and was a bucket list tilI got it, is a Rossi 92, in .357...To fulfill my inner cowboy, Pistol wise, my grail guns are a Colt Commander, and a Sphinx, (the copy of the CZ-75) in 9mm. I finally got a lefty bolt in my favorite caliber .308, a model 11 Savage...so that's filled. oh oh oh and a Mini-30, and a M1a....A lefty bolt in 7.62x39 would be the icing on the cake....oh oh oh ... and a Ruger No. 1 in .270.....
    To be continued....
    The Ruger No 1 in .270 is better than sex. Ok, not quite, but at least I can shoot it when I want to.

    My first Service Revolver was a M10-5, 4in, square butt, Tapered BBl(Skinny). Did my Academy and qualled no problem.

    Started work, and Dept was suppose to furnish a M66 SS, 357 mag, 4in. They had 2 spares, in a box taken apart in pieces. We shipped them back to S&W, and waited to see the outcome.

    Used my M10 for two months on duty, then Factory only shipped one new M66 back.
    Issued to me for 4 years, till we got Glock22's.

    Dept traded the S&W guns for Glocks, tried to buy mine, but it was traded.
    Still have my M10 though and its a fine firearm. Carried often, shot often, never an issue.
    My issued M66 was pre lock, and have seen a few and very pricey.

    My sons will inherit my Retired Service Revolver as my days go by. I own a 442 Snubbie too.
    They can decide which they want.

    Mine would be the Izhmash TIGR of course in 54r. There is no way to obtain the SVDS so this guy will have to do.
    Current asking price 5000-8000

    I remember them at gunshows, 900$ NIB.
    The SVDs were about 1200 -1500$ at the time.
    Wanted one dearly until I ran across an unfired M1a, all TRW but the bolt for 800$ at the same show.

    Owned: .45acp Hi-point carbine. Absolutely love shooting this gun. If they ever get serious and use quality parts and shaved some weight off this thing I'd gladly pay 3x the price.
    Browning 1911 380. It quickly became my favorite 25 yd target gun. One of the best triggers I've ever used.

    Not owned: Henry casehardened large loop, side gate in .45 long colt with 16" Octagon barrel. Saving for it now.

    There's also this Webley. Why do I have it. Oh right, sweet keychain.

    Neat! Have one like it, inherited. Never fired it though, not sure what ammo to feed it. Says MARK IV 38 on it (is that 38 special or 38 acp - I'm confused by this caliber). edit: research says .38 S&W webley.JPG
