Re: Favorite gun you have shot, own, wish you shot?
Without a doubt, my absolute lifetime favorite was a 106 Recoiless rifle with a beehive round. the Arty guys onthe FB were helping the Infantry (it was an infantry piece) lay in the rifle as a perimeter gun on FB Veghel. Once it was set, and pretty much aimed using the .50 BMG rifle barrel that was attached, (using tracer: This many turns of travers left puts it <span style="font-style: italic">here[, then this many turns right puts it here</span>. We stood there for a few minutes, and someoen said, "well, why don't we test fire this SOB?"
Half an hour later each of us (6 or 8 plus the arty guys) had put 2-3 rounds out, both HE and beehive, and pretty much got the guys who were on that position well briefed on the gun, and had on hell of a time playing with it, running drills, and taking turns in each position.
Favorite owned: My Contender. 14 inch hunter barrel, 223, with Luepold pistol scope. tack driver on prairie dogs to 200 yds.14 inch 30/30, with a 2 power Burris pistol scope, for bear at 150 yds or less, (with 150 Gr Ballistic Tips).
Wish I had: One of everything.
