My Dad's .177 Daisy pellet rifle. It was made before serial numbers were stamped on them. Finally found a gunsmith in Chicago, IL that could repair it. It's my backyard squirrel killer.

Here is a factory original Fitz Special made in 1933. One of only about 50 known to exist in the world. Factory modifications include removing the trigger guard, bobbing the hammer, and a trigger job. All modifications were made at the Colt factory by John Henry Fitzgerald.

Hard for me to pick just one. My Ol man was a gun collector and left me a few. I'd say favorite old pistol would be the WWII U.S issued Colt 1911, Rifle would probably be the M1 Carbine and shotgun would be my old H&R 12 Ga. Over & Under.

my fav is my black diamond 22. A Nylon 66? Never seen one in person. I have one you can shoot anytime you would like. Range is 15 minutes from my house. You can get that damn propane tank while your there.

My 1918 Colt Pre-Woodsman,..10 shot semi-auto .22,........................... My wife inherited a Woodsman/Huntsman when her Dad passed. I like shooting that gun. IF I had any guns, it might be this one. Smooth and accurate, feels good in the hand, great fun to shoot. A favorite of the Mossad and others involved in clandestine operations. But perhaps not my favorite of all the guns I might have once owned. My grandaddy's Military Police 1911 from WWI perhaps or an 1873 Winchester with octagonal barrel in caliber .38-40 with matching Colt revolver.... Being that no good American should ever own a gun, I divested myself of the entire lot so that there'd be no reason for the giverment to come lookin' 'round here....

Octagon barrel .22 pump action, owned by my Grandpa. I used to skip cans in Oregon outside their house with it. Had to be sure to aim away from the shop, which Grandpa eventually burned down due to an epoxy and space heater disagreement. Sounds like a Winchester Model 1890, or maybe a 90. I have an 1890 Gallery gun, shoots shorts only, that is 110 years old and still shoots like a dream. Taught my son and countless other kids how to shoot with it. My phone and PC don't play together well so I can't post pics Like this one? Sounds just like my Winchester 1890 Gallery gun. I had it appraised in 2010 the dude said it was worth about 1200 bucks. Would have been closer to 2 Grand in this condition he said except for someone carved their initials in the stock. I hate you JW... whoever you were
