Browning Model 1885 High Wall in 270.

Winchester Model 12 12 gauge shotgun.

Chiappa Half Pint Sharp`s 22 Magnum.

I already have the first two.
I was supposed to inherit my dad's old Model 12 until his nieces or their drug addict husbands stole it and a few other guns from his house while he was in the hospital before he died. Haunts me to this day because I know that gun ended up in some pawn shop for pennies on the dollar. Even had the slug barrel assembly and those are impossible to find anymore. Wouldn't have taken a million dollars for that gun if I had it today. Please take care of yours and don't let it get gone!

I couldn't narrow it down to just 3 because I have too many of my grandpas guns, 2 that belonged to my dad (model 94 30-30 and a 512 Remington) and the first two guns my grandparents ever gave me. Out of the guns I bought with my money I'd pick my Colt 1911 70 series, 870 12 ga, Winchester model 70 30-06.

Winchester 310 .22 single shot. You can't break them. Period.

either Mossberg 500 or Rem 1100 in 12 gauge. Probably take the Mossberg because of the interchangable chokes and it would take a sledge hammer and an anvil to break it.

rifle.... either my short barreled M77 30.06 or a .35 Rem 336C.... either one is a good hill/brush gun. 06 a little more versatile, but doggone if I don't love a lever action.

My pistols don't hang on a gunrack so I'm not giving up any of them.

1. My .54 Flintlock, for reason given by NC HillBilly, and because it fits so well and I just like it.
2. My Model 700 LH 7mm Rem. Mag.
3. A Remington Model 870 pump with a bunch of chokes.

This is a hard question to answer. I probably couldn't do it. In the end I think they'd have to pry my .40 cal. flintlock from my cold dead hands.
