Although I love my Fox 16 Sterly Dlx Ejector 32/26" 2bbl set,
Fox 20 gauge brush and various Parkers.
Its a tossup between Winchester M71 Deluxe Carbine Long Tang 1st year in
amazing condition including sling or
Fox 12-Ga SPE with checkered Butt, single trigger and Special ordered Long Beavertail documented with Letter.
Those 2 may join me in the next life.

well...probably a little different than most. in the late 70's i was spending a lot of time in very remote spots surfing so i bought a stainless Rugar Mini-14 as a "boat gun". it continued to server that purpose for decades. 50 years later i still enjoy taking it to the range. the only watercraft i still own is powered by a paddle. favorite gun today....obviously my Parker.

Not sure on the "best" part but a toss up on the "favorite" category. Either my 26" 0 frame VH 16 or a 20 ga. 21 Winchester made the year I was born. Both IC/MOD, wicked on flushing quail with 7 1/2 and WILL whip up on the early season Teal with a bit of bismuth!

Love my Parkers and my pre-war Winchesters and Colts. This forum has been a great place to read and learn. Like some have said, my safe is like a room full of old friends. My Dad and I spent years enjoying hunting and fishing and so many of my guns bring back special memories of days gone by but still make me smile remembering. Stay close to old friends and enjoy your guns, we may not be getting younger but we can still enjoy a good gun or a few.

I am like Mills. It’s the next one. I have been lucky to have owned some nice guns over the years.
A few of my best have been sold, not because I didn’t like them but they helped to finance other more important things going on.
The “next one” I have coming is awaiting customs clearance from Canada. That would be my custom 20 gauge Fox that Chris Dawe built.
