What is the most beautiful rifle ever made, to you?

[DDadams]

Since the handgun thread seemed successful - but fairly obvious at the onset of what most would say.

I think rifles will show a lot more differences from each user on here.

Again, as in the other thread I made, my picture is just from the internet as I don't own my pick... yet.

Controversial, again, I'm sure but this is IT for me. The Sage EBR.




Post pics of your choice, even if it's just from Google.

For a factory rifle I'd go with a Ruger #1B w good wood and a gloss 6.5-20X Leupold on top.
Am not into engraving or bling, even though one of my current #1s is a 2017 anniv model.
Got it because it was an A in .308win.

Here's one I thought about though..........

Blaser Model 821

I didn't comment in the handgun thread because there's so many.
For looks, trap guns have always been good looking guns.

Winchester Lever gun

I just think both of these Rugers are timeless classics. Throw in my Winchester 73.

I love the case hardened 1893’s
It’s one of my goals to have one of these.

This thing, German G1 FAL
Just something about the businesslike mismatch of wood, stamped metal and loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong flash hider

Either that of one of the short, nfa-exempt Winchester lever actions.

I’ve always been partial to the M1-Carbine. I think it’s the only rifle I have more than one of.

Hard to beat a Winchester 94 with a big loop lever.

Just about any of the high end late Victorian era British rifles - Holland & Holland, Rigby, Westley Richards, etc. Singles, doubles, and bolts. Elegant with impeccable fit and finish; and yet made to be used in places where mechanical failure might well cost you everything. Quite a few of them are still functional and in use 125yrs later. Today, on this side of the pond, one can get close to this concept with ordering an upgraded 1874 Shiloh Sharps like this one...

You took the words right out of my mouth.

I love the history of it and how it's just a little different than any other Thompson the 1928a1 is the one for me
Imagine from Rock Island, how I wish it were mine.

 

[JohnKDM]

I wouldn't kick these two Krag sporters out of bed for eating crackers either.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

Not necessarily the whole rifle, but I've always loved the crests on some old military rifles, especially the South American Mausers.

[DoggyDaddy]

One of my favorites. Brazilian Mauser (30-06).

Remington Model 8/81s have always been my style, too
