Up until now true democracy has always been described as One man, One Vote . Suppose we changed that to One man, One gun . My question is WHICH Gun ??

You sound like a Jim Brady organization fan.

Well at least 7 of you are going to have to go without guns as I am not giving up any of my 8 guns.

Don't feed the trolls, bountyhunter.

This is way off topic.

Sorry Goatrider, you are right about it being off topic, but his location prompted my response.

I am going to leave this thread alone.

Always better to simply discuss the issue, not name-call or attack the messenger, in my book.

Thought "don't feed the trolls" was funny.... since I just recently learned (from you guys) what a troll is. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Ack! I can't help myself (although I'm stretching to connect the Subject line to the question):

A terrible question to ask - it's causing me severe mental stress... I don't have any I want to give up. I guess the answer for me would be my old Ruger M77 30-06. It's a real beater for looks now, but it's a death ray in my hands - we have a lot of experiences with each other...

Any good, accurate bolt action in 308, preferably with Herr Mauser's big extractor, might be smarter, but that's my pick and I'm sticking to it...

That sounds like cruel and unusual punishment to me. <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

But if for some reason I could have only one gun, I'd be inclined to go with my Savage 24 .22LR/20ga.Mag. Much of my hunting is for upland game, so it might be the best compromise.

"I'd be inclined to go with my Savage 24 .22LR/20ga.Mag. "

Amen to that. I've got a circa 1975 Savage .22LR/20 Mag that I ran slugs through for the first time a few months back. 4" group at 50 yards. No tack driver for sure but accurate enough to bag a doe should the need arise. As a meat gun, you just can't beat it for versatility.

I bet it would work on trolls as well.....

Regards, Vince
