Gun collection must haves
Name a make and model of fire arm that you think is a must have for any gun collection.
As was mentioned on another thread; Marlin model 60 .22 auto.
I have one and agree its a must.

I don't have one and don't feel the lack, and that is what is going to make this hard. There will never be a "universally approved" list. I do have a model 82 Marlin, so maybe the list should say "Marlin .22"
I would have to put a Savage Model 99 on the list. I would like to put a pre-64 Model 70 Winchester on too, but don't have one.
Winchester model 9422 would be on my list
Remington model 700 would be on it.
Marlin model 3360 -
Marlin 336, Win 94, Ruger 10-22..Not necessarily in that order. 0 -
Winchester model 12 and 94. 0 -
Well, I have several owner manuals for guns that people just must have:
Winchester 1300 12-gauge
some version of a 45-ACP (1911 or not)
10/220 -
AK-47 0 -
Maybe an 870, or other 12 ga. pump I'm sure. And yes of course a Savage model 99. [:D] 0 -

Of course there are numerous others...... Your Marlin M60 is not on my list at all. Maybe it should be it is a famous firearm by all rights. But to me and in my own opinion they are for shooting the crap out of and not for collecting.0 -

Actually I seem to have most of the ones in some variation mentioned so far. I was interested in seeing what the other guys thought. Sort of a gun collecting taste test. [:D]
But heres one I picked up last year that I'm fond of and might be a must have: 1936-1941 Winchester 37 "red Letter" 20 ga. 28" She is a beauty!0 -
At least one O/U shotgun.
Probably some S&W revolvers as well, 29, 19, etc.0 -

Now where did you find one of those???????? Hmmmmmmm!!!!0 -
IN ORDER
1.) Cap Gun, comes right after the toy dart gun
2.) BB Gun- Learn markmanship and safety
3.) 410/20 gauge Shotgun &/or a .22 rifle- First "huntin" guns
4.) .22 Pistol- Gotta Plink!
5.) 12 gauge semi auto or pump if you can't afford the s/a- cause you grew up!
6.) Now your a man, bolt action hunting rifle, 7mm Rem mag or similar, would have been .308 but times are a changin, if you live where you shoot little creatures from a LONG way maybe a lighter flat trajectory round.
7.) .357 or .44 magnum revolver- Moved out u need a defensive revolver. Dont count on semi autos for defense!
8.) Now your shoppin for fun, an AR-15, a M-1A, you go boy pick up that 1911, or the Fancy 9mm semi with rosewood or mother of Pearl
grips, stainless finish with gold trim! Cause now your addicted! You can't help it you will buy more cause you NEED to.0 -
