What's your favorite range gun, and what's your favorite carry gun?

I primarily carry a Taurus Millenium Pro PT-145, but love to shoot my Kimber Custom II up at S&W in Springfield.

I'm curious to see if anyone's favored carry gun is also their favorite at the range.
 
My favorite firearm is my Anschutz 1411 prone target rifle. Anschutz rifles are truly marvels of precision and craftsmanship.

My favorite carry gun is my S&W Model 65.
 
I only technically have two, but my favorite carry is my G29 with Double-Tap Gold Dots and my favorite range gun is my G24 upper on my G22. I just bought a ported 9mm barrel for it and I can't wait to shoot it.
 
We'll cover hand guns with:
Range- Ruger New Vaquero Stainless 4 5/8 inch in 45 Colt
Carry- S&W J-frame (i have several) in .38spl or Colt Cobra in .38spl

Long guns:
Range- Anschutz 1913 free-rifle for indoors, Bushmaster M-15 DCM/CMP Match rifle in .223 for outdoors
Carry- Remington 870 Express 18 inch 12 gauge magnum with extended magazine
 
My favorite range gun is any Ruger single action revolver.
My CCG custom .44 Special Ruger New Vaquero is at the top of the list.

(Only), When concealment is an issue, my .357 Mag. S&W M640 is carried.

If I could carry this one:

I'd be all set. Its my favorite range gun by far.
 
Range gun: M&P 9 mm, with 3.5 lb. Greg Derr trigger job and Dawson fiber optic competition sights.

Carry guns:
S&W Airweight, Mag-na-ported, with trigger job and a CT Lasergrip
Glock 30 with 3.5 lb. connector and tactically-dimmed night sights
 
Carry: S&W 6906 or 4013
Back up carry: J-frame

Range: SW1911 Target Model (All SS, Adj sights)
Back up range: Sig 226 in 9mm, not exactly a beater, but a well broken in model with a great trigger.
 
Until yesterday they were the same : A tie between a Sig 228 & a ParaOrd 1911 ,Carry & range.

But I just got myself a S&W model 29 .44mag with 8 3/8 in. barrel. .... Can I carry it concealed at all ?
 
It's so hard to choose. It's like my kids, I love them all equally.

If I have to make a pick, my favorite range gun would be the first center fire rifle I ever got, a 1920 Model 99 Savage .250-3000. I've been shooting it since I was 12, and it feels like part of me.

For carry, I usually end up with a S&W 442 with .38+P, or Gold dots. If not the 442, then a 640-3 with .38+P, and sometimes a Colt Mustang .380 back up.
 
Range :              PS90              Kimber LE Pro Shadow
Carry  : PRO shadow

Carry gun: H&K P7M8
Range Gun: H&K P7M8 - until about the 100th round through it, when blisters start forming on my index finger when the frame burns it. Then, suddenly, my favorite range gun is a S&W 57, in 41 Mag.

I shoot at the range what I CCW with.
