Toss up between my winchester 52A,
Or my first ipsc 45 auto built by the late Jim Boland in 1979. It has a cracked frame from decades of abuse, but I still run it hard.
The hairline crack is in a non critical area.

Those are 2 expensive pieces of metal!
I think, therefore I am armed.

Has to be my Anschutz Model 64 .22 Single Shot Bolt Action Target Rifle. It is my very first rifle. I saved my allowance, my father supposedly matched my allowance and bought it somewhere between 1968 and 1970 if I remember correctly.

I guess it would be my Shimoda .38 WC gun--super accurate, really easy to shoot well and it can never be replaced.

That's an idea....   :D

Although, I was able to see this one in person before buying.  Gunbroker can be a little risky.

Couple weeks ago when at gun shop seen a guy picking up a transfer from gunbroker. Was a colt python. Looked at condition. But he would not say how much he paid for it lol. Had original box but all beaten up.

Yeah.  I doubt anyone would be willing to pay enough to make me let loose of it.  But, hey!  One never knows!!  There is no limit to what some people are willing to pay for something they want bad enough!

Well I enjoy holding all my AR's the most. But my Buckmark slab sided walnut UDX is a real beauty.

And I like my glock because it was my first firearm.

So, all my guns!

Im kind of surprised i still have my first firearm. Got a remington 870 express magnum. Traded a guy x-ray 007 rc car for it lol. But my first firearm purchase i sold to get my prized possession. First gun i bought was a savage 93R17BVSS 17hmr which i sold along with a bunch of firearms i acquired through out the years for my Barrett m82a1. Dont know how to post pics on here. Which i should look up at some point. But thats my prized possession. Always wanted one from small kid time and had to make the jump and get it before i got married or kids. Cause im sure once that happens my odds were slim in trying to pull off a purchase like that lol.

Toss up between my 1903 A4 with an M73 or my Mosin PU sniper. Just picked up a scoped M1D so I may have to modify my thought process!
