    Gun Bucket List

    I'm a relatively new and inexperienced collector and I'm wondering what guns everyone has on their "must own" and/or "bucket list". I'd separate into handguns and long guns. As an example, I've seen someone on CG say that "if you own one handgun, it's ok for it to not be a 1911, but if you own two, then one MUST be a 1911" (sorry for the poor paraphrase and missing citation.

    What guns should every gun owner own?

        I'd like to have a collection of more than one gun, though.

          Thanks. I am missing revolvers from the collection and definitely need to find a nice one.

                Nice. Is there a featureless FAL clone option?

                  Since you say collector, you don't NEED a G19 for your BUCKET LIST. Handguns, go with a python. Long guns, go with an old 1886 winchester. Preferably this one:

                    Sorry, I don't mean collector in the sense of having a museum. I mean in the sense of stuff you can take to the range, mixed with projects, mixed with safe queens. Anything goes.

                        Is that like a 1911 in .357?

                          Every American must own a 1911 and a .357 Magnum wheelgun. It's a Universal Truth.

                          "He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog.
                          You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart.
                          You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion."
