What's the ultimate all round gun .

[das]

Now down to one gun as my 32" Guerini Ascent has one. Super quality gun but I really never got on with the stepped rib

and at 32", the weight and length was showing my age.

My Beretta 682 Gold E does all I ask these days and is probably the best of the 4 or 5 Berettas I have owned over

the past years.

My Perazzi.

I am completely with Scully on this one. I have 6 guns in the cabinets but they have all mainly been gathering dust since I got my Perazzi its certainly my favourite go to gun...

Hi

Very thought provoking thread

Had a lot of Guns and got a few however the ultimate alround gun

Would have to be

Browning 425 special waterfowl 31/2 chambers magnum proof multi choke

You can fire any factory load through it shoot clays pigeons pheasant or wildfowl and not be out of place or undergunned

 

Not my favourite gun in the cabinet but the most versatile

 

All the best

In Shotguns Easy one for me, My Browning 425 3.5 inch Waterfowl Not absolutely perfect at everything but it tick a heck of a lot of boxes and scores high in them all.

My short ***(just like me) Sarasqueta 6EC, being a married man of 20+ years, it reminds me of my manhood, only gets to come out and play every now and then, but when it does it puts a huge smile on my face

Salvinelli Monaco 32" trap - choked 3/8 and 3/8. I have an almost unused, adjustable comb, multichoke model, but never use it.

 

I have owned many, many Winchester, Miroku, Browning, Nikko, Blaser, Beretta, Franchi and more - over and unders, plus a shedload of autos.

 

This gun fits me - relatively heavy gun, but it feels quite light. Can't imagine ever parting with it

[davewh100]

I'm with blade on this one mine is the benelli super sport just a lovely light auto really love this gun

Ithaca Model 37 ...............Clays, Game, Practical, .......Historical, Mechanical, Engineered, Traditional, Simple ...........Shot, Buck, Slug .........Comfortable, Character, User Friendly, Tactile......Strong, Steel, Wood, Solid..........If I only had one gun there is no contest

[sishyplops]

I dont think i could choose as I enjoy own various guns as much as I enjoy shooting them, every weeks clay shoot I have the choice of:

 

325 grade 6

Aya best quality boxlock

686 26 20g

687 30 20g sporter

303 field deluxe

302 magnum

303 20g

Yildiz 410 o/u

 

If I could only keep one it would probably be the 325

You could just use your 302 Magnum.

[sishyplops]

Not so good in the game shoots though

I cant say I have ever owned the ultimate all round gun, mainly because I couldn't afford to buy the ones mentioned above , but to me I have had some beauties , possibly my favourite one was of all things, a Midland Gun Company , 32inch , f + f , 3inch hammer gun , it wasn't so much as the gun it was more of the memories that went with it , I used it for around 15 yrs when I was a wildfowling junkie in my mid twenties and what it shot and where we went would make some interesting reading , although that was 45 years ago , and now I have gone up market with a B S A , 2 3/4 , s x s , ej , I like the gun , but the ejectors don't mean a thing to me as I am still in the habit in removing the empties myself

All round shotgun.... hmmmmmm???

 

Assuming I would not get thrown out of any fancy driven shoot, then I have to go with my original Remington 870 Wingmaster. I would add a 28 or 30 inch barrel with interchangeable chokes, to the two barrels ..26 inch skeet and 30 inch very full choke barrel I have at present. If I had a tenner for everything I have shot with that shotgun I would be a fairly wealthy person. Ultra reliable, just one extractor claw replaced in 30yrs, purchased a pack of five just in case I live long enough to have to replace another .

 

I must see if I can trace the year it was made from the serial number. It was second hand and a five shot when I purchased it from the gun auctions in Birmingham for a song.
