So...what gun do you have that you shoot least of all?

[Cross-X]

For me, I would have to say my carefully refinished Norinco SKS rifle.

It doesn't get out much. I really should sell the dang thing to make room for something more interesting. Until I do, it is the reigning Safe Queen in my house.

So, what gun do you have that you shoot least of all?

 

[Moderator]

Jenning's .22 or Davis P-380 there both equally worthless, But for some reason I still lov'em

 

[Cross-X]

I am buying some sort of Italian Saturday Night Special, have no idea yet what it is, but it sure is cheap. I'm told it is a raging .25 -- not a mighty .380, but what the heck. [roll]

I have a feeliing this little semi will be a strong contender for the Safe Queen title.

 

[dwarven1]

That would have to be one of my mouse guns - a Davis .22WMR derringer or my CZ-75B in 9mm/

 

[Cross-X]

So, Ross, are you gonna bring that COP to the Riverside IDPA practice on the 22nd?

 

[dwarven1]

Sure!

It's a fun little gun; I like it.

Well, I inherited a bunch of guns from my grandfather. Not including the non- or barely functioning guns, the one I shoot the least is the Mannlicher-Carcano 6.5mm (yes, like the one Oswald used to shoot Kennedy). Since ammo is approximately $30/20 rounds, I doubt I'll ever shoot it.

If we're talking about guns I've bought, then the Taurus .44 Special would be the one. It's the same reason as the Carcano - ammo is expensive... Although at least with this gun if I start reloading I'll shoot it more...

Current safe Queen is hubby's uncle's single shot shotgun. We did put a couple rounds through her to make sure she would fire, but haven't shot it since. It's an oldie but a goodie.

 

[Cross-X]

For least used handguns, I would say my Ruger Mark I tops the list -- a PITA to reassemble, and not all that much fun to shoot.

I should sell that sucker too!

 

[C-pher]

I think that it's my Remington 1100. It's a great gun. But being that we don't have skeet or trap at my club. It's doesn't really get out.

I have two safe queens. The first is my NAA Revolver. Neat little gun I paid $25 for because the previous owner had managed to break something inside and didn't know that NAA has a lifetime warrenty. Little shipping and now I have a practically new NAA 5-shot .22 LR.

Reason I don't use it is that it's damn hard to hold onto - pretty much stands stright up in my hand. However, I do have to admit it's a pretty accurate little gun.

My other Safe Rider is the Star Firestar .40 with the busted ejector. Been trying for a few years to find a new ejector for it. Looks like I might have to have one made at this point. I love the gun. Smaller than my SIG 239 with the same capacity although it is a little heavier as it's an all steel gun. Was a damn reliable little gun that shot anything. The ejector broke during a class when someone tried to force a dummy round instead of listening. A lot of my older guns don't go to class anymore because of that. Can't risk not getting parts.

I've meen having a lot of FTF problems with my S&W 686P. I've got the call tag to mail it in to them for repair, but with the wedding and honeymoon I haven't had the $125 to get the tune-up I want done. So by default it's my 686P.

Also haven't shot "my" (Mike is never going to get this rifle back) AR-15 much since I'm out of ammo and haven't been able to go visit Carl and Holly for the same reason listed above.

 

[Nickle]

Mine is easy, it's also my oldest gun. Confederate Rifle, Richmond, VA, 1863 .58 cal. Never have shot it, may never shoot it. Of my more modern weapons, possibly my VZ-24.

I have two Secretary of the Navy Trophy M1 Garands that I won while I was on active duty. I have not put a round through either one of them, and won't.

I have seen some dealers at the Concord NH and Big E gun shows that seemed to have lots of parts for various brand guns. No guarantee, but you might ask around at some of these shows. Lots of the same dealers at the Concord, Marlboro and Big E shows.

If I could come across a box of 9mm Steyr ammo for less than $40, I might spring for it and shoot my Austrian M1912 Steyr Hahn (1916).

Nickle:
What year is your vz24? I have one made in 1926 and it's a fine little pistol complete with unit marks on the front strap.

[Nickle]

Uhh, mine is a little long for a handgun. It's a VZ-24 rifle. The original Kar 98K so to say.

 

[jacobtowne]

Well, that would be tough to fit into your back pocket.
JT

 

[Nickle]

Yeah, and I would think that it's killed more people than Teddy's car. Not since I've owned it, though.
