Firearms every gun enthusiast should own! (What do you think)

My list:

WWII era bolt gun (Moisin/Lee-Enfield/Kar98)
M1, or M1A
AR-15
AK, VZ, or SKS
1911
.22LR (10/22 or a Cooey bolt action)
A wheelgun in .357
870 or Mossberg 500/590

I would say you need a little and a big of everything....rifle, shotgun, handgun. Then when you get that squared away get the really big 50 cals and a cannon of coarse.

a glock, i have a 23
a remington 870 home defence 12 gauge
ruger 10-22
ar 10 or 15
357 mag
and would love to own a 3030 lever action their sweet and simple

Glock
1911
AR
AK
12 gauge pump
Bolt action
.22LR rifle
Revolver
Lever action

The brands and caliber are up to them.

A 12 gauge shotgun with both sport and tactical setups
A good 9mm pistol.
A good .45 ACP pistol.
An AR or AK battle rifle
A .22 rifle

Should cover every situation. Maybe a good bolt action long-range hunting rifle and a lever-action 30-30.

Brands/models a personal choice but mine are:

Remington 870
CZ P-01
HK 45c
Saiga 308-1 conversion
Henry classic

S&W 686 .357
Ruger SP101 .357
Glock 19
Sig P229
AR15
Kel-Tec p32
HK45C (or other .45 auto.)
Mossberg 500 (My spell check tried to make me change Mossberg to Rosenberg but I refused despite the humor factor)

For me, it's the Mosin Nagant, has the best price to run ratio of any firearm I own.

The are a lot of options and a lot of possible reasons for your suggestions (fun, affordability, historical value)

I look forward to hearing your thoughts!

How about.....
Ruger 10/22

Didn't finish my list...
Ruger 10/22
12 ga. pump
bolt action hunting rifle with scope
semi-auto hi-powered rifle such as a Mini-14 in 6.8SPC

Firearms that every gun enthusiast should own? You mean, all of them? :smile:

Hmmmmmmmm.....

Defensive:
1) a polymer pistol of major caliber
2) a 1911 in .45 acp
3) a shotgun that you are proficient with in 12 or 20 ga.
4) A long range bolt action rifle ( .223 for caliber cooperation with my tactical)
5) a tactical AR ( .223)
6) a subcompact of major caliber, preferably the same as your polymer pistol.
7. Ruger mk3 22/45


Fun:
1) Semi auto 22 LR
2) Semi Auto 22 pistol
3) Any of the guns from the defensive list
4) anything that brings a smile to your face

I agree 100% I like all my guns. But these two are the most fun to cost ratio.

Revolvers
- Snubbie in .38 or .357
- Full Size in .357
- .22 Revolver for fun
1911 in .45 ACP
High capacity 9 mm Poly frame
Single stack 9mm pocket or deep conceal pistol
.22 semi-auto target and plinker
.22 rifle (pump, lever, or semi-auto...all 3 would be better)
.22 revolver
Lever action in .357 (or other caliber to match your full-size revolver)
Pump shotgun, preferably 12ga

This is my list of essentials to have. My prefer to have is a lot longer.

Anything with a silencer on it.

Any .22
Any bolt action, like a .300 Blackout
Any single shot, like an Encore
Any AR with a can
Any AK with a can
Any centerfire pistol with a can
