What is you "Fun" gun choice?

[MarshallDodge]

An absolute favorite is my 6BR. The previous owner had it built with a big 1:8 twist 28" barrel, and it is a laser with 105 grain bullets.





I let my son's girlfriend shoot it on Sunday and she got all the way out to 1000 yards for the first time in her life.

Hoo boy, that is a toughie.

I gave this one a bit of thought. I finally decided that I have had so much fun over the decades, with so many different guns, that I doubt I could even narrow it down to just 10 “favorites”,” much less one.

Stay safe.

My 18 inch 1914 Remington Model 11 12ga. Fun indeed.

Where did you get that cheek riser on the pc carbine? I could use one of those for my savage mk II fvsr...

Thanks!

I am sorry @American_Fusilier I didn’t see your question until today. That cheek pad is from MCARBO. Unfortunately they are out of stock now. They don’t even have it listed now.

For pure unadulterated fun I'd say my .458 SOCOM and .50 Beowulf AR15s. They really serve me no purpose other than just blasting targets. If I want a bigger bullet than I usually use for hog hunting I'll use the .450 Bushmaster. The other two above are just for when I feel like making a lot of sturm und drang.

I forgot about my Remington 14 in 35 Remington. Fun to shoot. Handy and lightweight to carry and mild recoil. Hmm I do take my 7600 hunting more than the 35 rem but both are fun guns .

Two days after my first post on this thread I bought a Ruger SFAR .308 Win. with a 16” barrel. I test fired it with back up sights then mounted a Leupold Vari-X 3-9x33 compact scope on Warne QD rings.

This gun is definitely a fun gun.





Here’s my M1 Garand with the SFAR in the background.

I agree the little SA-22 is a fun gun. I like the slightly darker wood on yours. My 1970 model has very light walnut, and it'd "bothered" me for years -- just too butterscotch-looking in person to suit me. I'm currently in the process of refinishing the stock and forearm using some Alkanet root dye to darken it and help bring out the grain feature. We'll see how it turns out, but I think I'll like it better.
Originally it looked like the forearm in this photo (the stock is catching light differently here and looks darker to the camera than in person):

I posted this in another thread but I recently refinished the wood on the SA-22. I never grew to like the original butterscotch colored walnut, so I stripped it, added some alkanet root stain (a dye, actually, but people call it a stain), and finished with Tru-Oil. And re-cut the checkering while I was at it.

This my rifle, this is my gun, this is for shooting, this is for fun.......... And it's most definitely a centerfire...........

I guess I missed this thread somehow...

Good to see some other 458 SoComs out there.


And the ever present crowd pleaser...

No worries! Thanks for the reply! I'll keep an eye out for it.

I can’t see past that fine looking specimen in the foreground. I guess I need to have my eyes checked.

Just for quick "stress relief" my Colt 6951 in 9mm:





Makes a great practice gun that's easy on my AR500 and works well for PCC matches.
