Title: 5 must have guns to complete your collection
Post by: Hunter1007 on September 15, 2013, 01:31:39 AM
Like the title says 5 guns to complete your collection. For whatever your reasons. For whatever your taste in firearms. Just curious to see what people value.

I enjoy my modern firearms but these firearms have a special place in my collection

1) a quality 1911 from a reputable manufacturer
2) s&w 686
3) m1a
4) Mauser k98
5) Winchester model 1866

Let the debate begin

5 Must Have Guns to complete my historical collection:
1. 1873 Winchester Rifle .44-40 - John Browning's rifle that won the West

Not to nitpick, but the 1873 was not designed by John Browning.  Browning's first lever gun for Winchester was the 1886.  He replaced the toggle link system in the earlier Winchesters (like the 1873) with a much stronger system.   Nonetheless, the 1873 is a great gun and is "The Gun that Won the West".  Winchester is now making them again -- or to be more precise, Miroku is making Winchesters and the quality, fit and finish are fantastic.  They are roll marked "Winchester".  Currently in 357, but rumors of a 44-40 have been floating around.
