I think we all have guns and then there are the go to guns, the ones we enjoy using more than another even if it's the same gauge or caliber. My favorite rifles are a pre 64 M70 7MM carbine and a custom Ruger #1 7MM-08. I've really come to enjoy the Purdey with the 2 inch shell and Gunner's gun is an old friend that evokes smiles and tears at the same time. I have no one to pass these down to with the exception of Gunner's gun which will go to a PGCA/Fox member who also has a son who I believe will be a shooter/hunter and it can be passed to him as well.
