Well, looking through this thread, I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who likes the classics. Like a good Savage youth model bolt action .222.The first gun I ever shot. Hopefully it'll be the first my children fire. Mossbergs are... neat. My bolt action Mossberg shotgun taught me how to make rounds count. But right now my simple Winchester model 12 is my go to gun. 65 years old and still shoots as straight and reliable as the day she rolled off the line. My grandfather took pheasants in his day with it. My dad took grouse with the very same gun. A couple weeks ago I brought home a mixed bag of 3 ducks, a house, and a limit of rabbits. I'd like to think some day my sons (at least one of them) will use my grandfather's Winchester to help have the dinner table with something.
