That one gun.

[Pat Riot]

Depending on which end of the house it’s either the Glock 45 or the S&W 327NG. My two favorite handguns.



If something more impressive is needed the Mossberg 500 is located roughly between them.

That's a good idea. I like that S&W.

Bumps in the night Glock 19. If I hear a break-in like the door being kicked in my Ruger PCC. Going to town my ruger LCP ll. Varmints get my Benjamin 177 pump. I live in the burbs.

Benjamin makes a nice pellet gun. I have a Ruger Air Hawk. It has taken several squirrels.

Had a old one around 96-97 best pellet rifle I ever owned. This new one is junk. But it is faster then the old one. 800fps-1100fps. Decent accuracy. Good enough for squirrels

I sure like my old Benjamin .22 caliber pump-up pellet rifle. However, “pumping up” a Benjamin pellet rifle can be hazardous for some people. My wife hasn’t touched my Benjamin pellet rifle in probably 35 years - not since she closed the pump handle on one of the protuberances on her chest.

That sounds painful! It takes some work to pump those bad boys up. Its worth it. Well with the old ones. Still haven't warmed up to the new one.

Some women like that type of thing. Others don't.

I believe the OP was about that one gun you are likely to pick up.

May I ask, respectfully, did you read the original post?

This was the first line from the OP......

What is the one gun you seem to always grab when you might have to shoot something?

.....I stand by my answer. If I need to shoot a pesky 'possum in the back yard, am I going to grab my ought-six?

If it's a deer, then maybe. Depends.

When I walk out the door and need to take along something for SD, it ain't a long gun.

Again, guns are tools. They don't need love. They need purpose and all of mine have that.

Just as easy to grab the one that's most appropriate, than one that just tickles my fancy.

No misunderstanding on my part

That does somewhat depend on the situation. My hunting property is a fair drive away from my home so I don't have the option to take all my guns so I can select the best choice I have when I encounter a critter. The guns I posted up thread are the two guns that go with me to the hunting property just about every time I go. I may take other guns to shoot or hunt with by the 300 BO AR-pistol and Model 10 38 Special always go because I am confident they can deal with anything I am likely to encounter out there.

I took the open line of the OP to mean that one gun you grab when you might have to shoot something but are not yet sure of what that might be. Maybe I mis-interpreted him but I took it as a what is your utility gun that goes in the truck, tractor, UTV just in case. Not a situation where you know you have to deal with X so you pick the best choice for X. YMMV

to just go shooting? That would be one of my12 gauge O/U target guns, preferably, my Beretta DT-11

Was my general meaning. If you are on a farm, ranch, of general rough country. General utility trumps everything.
Your 300 pistol works for you.
Most of what I shoot is 100-500 yards away. I don't have to deal with bears.
My Taurus spectrum is my preferred handgun. Once again. If it gets scratched or rained on while I'm working. I won't cry. But it has killed a hog.

 

[Whiskeyhotel2020]

The gun that most likely gets picked up is a 1911 in either .45 acp or 10mm.

Good enough...

Nice looking pistols. I had one in 41 mag though mine was had a 6 in and an 8 in barrel combination.
