While we have the standard homeowner battery (870/1911/SKS/P3AT, etc) I've been spending a lot of time with this lately:
Tech ForceTF34 (B3) .22cal air rifle http://www.compasseco.com/index.php?action=item&id=923&prevaction=category&previd=1&prevstart=0
equipped with a 4x32mm scope on 11mm dovetails, recently tuned and lovingly cared for by this gentleman:

Now, if I can just find a decent pellet she likes...but why hurry? Cheap, solid, accurate fun, and enough whack to make garden-raiders quit trying for good.

My pappy's Auto-5 is as good as it gets for shooting anything with fur or feathers or made of clay and baked in a disk and it dont do to bad on things with horns but you have to get a close shot.

Lambo119, you are sick! You got a show room there bigger than some gunshops. I'll take that oldie looking m16A2, myself.
now I'm realizing that I realy don't love my ccw/hd guns. There is nothing wrong with them its just I'm not all jazzed up about them.
My favorite is between my DW VH44 and my (P&R) S&W 27 6.5"
the S&W I bought for my christmass present to myself a long time ago. At the time I was looking for a 5" 27 and I found a 6.5" and a 4" registered mag. I passed on the registered mag partly because I didn't get what it was but I did get the 6.5" and I've allways enjoyed shooting it or just picking it up and looking into that deep deep blueing
the Dan Wasson I traded a marlin 1894 in 44 for a S&W 29-2 6.5" and then got on a Cirrilo kick and thought about turning the 29 in to a switch BBl but then I came across a fair shape DW 44 and traded the smith for the DW. This DW has the best trigger out of any DW I have handled and better than most other revovlvers of any make. It will also shoot about any old ammo you throw in the cylinder very very well. Last week it was keeping 200 gr XTP handloads in a 3" group at 25' double action.

Which gun in your favorite...
.. is like asking you which one of your kids is your favorite. I don't show favorites to my guns, I love them all equally.

Hmm, hard to say. I've probably gotten the most hours of enjoyment out of my 10/22s, not sure which one specifically. If I were reduced to only one gun though it would be my FAL.
10 Ring Tao, that's one good looking AK pistol.

A tie between:
Timberwolf .357 pump. Yowza, what a beautiful little carbine. I bought it second-hand but in "indistinguishable from new, probably never fired" condition from a guy who bought it as an investment and kept it in a safe for the better part of two decades. Nicest wood I have EVER seen on a rifle, except maybe an exotic at a gun show.
Marlin 1894 SS .44 magnum. First rifle I ever bought and a real "take care of business" machine. Solid, reliable, a gun I have 100% confidence in.
Like someone else mentioned, I do "like" my handguns, but they just don't grab me at the same emotional level as these handy little carbines.

It's a toss-up between my 10/22 and my SKS. At the moment, the SKS is winning because I had a great day at the range with it yesterday.
Next week, it'll be my brand-new P99. Love that new gun smell!
