What do you think is the most over looked firearm ?

[DuneHopper]

I think another one after careful thought is the Marlin 60 22LR.
Its about the least expensive semi-auto to buy, its sleek, no mags to lose.
It beats 99% of all 22lr's semi-auto's right outta the box in accuracy.
Built well, solid and will shoot just about any quality ammo. My only gripe is its more work
to dissemble. But I have several additions just because they are great plinkers .
I try and buy these anytime I see 100.00 bill on them, I also like the ones with the NRA emblems
just cause their different.

Swiss k55

Straight pull bolt, decent ergos, attractive lines.

First time I ever saw one was at GI Joes in Beaverton. $90 - I should have bought it. I bought a $400 Beneli pump gun instead. Could have bought every k55 on the rack llus some ammo for that much.

I have not even seen one in stores in years.

Post #115. Are you trying to be a tremendous turd?

 

[jsparks747]

I would agree with the SKS but another, while not looked over but isn't appreciated is the Mosin Nagant. That thing can go through hell and then shoot Satan in the balls.

.40S&W fan here. My bedside gun is .40 S&W and I have a couple of Glocks in .40 S&W too - one thing I like about buying Glocks in .40 S&W is that it's so easy to buy a conversion barrel and switch to 9mm if I really want to. Same thing goes for my S&W M&P 40.

My second handgun was a USP 40 and it shoots very well. I did try a Glock 23 as well but prefer the USP 40. The USP 40 was designed around the 40 S&W cartridge from the start.

The Mosin-N used to be 79.00 firearm and with popularity its now around 300.00. They are sweet id like to get one before too long.

Among our pistols I find the 40sw is just a very comfortable round, and with very minimal recoil. I have never shot or held a USP 40. But they remind me allot of my P229 SW40

I've heard good things about the USP, though never held, much less shot one.

What about the Henry's Survival rifle AR-7 ? A Stoner design that my collection is missing.

While it is popular it isn't appreciated as much. Lot's of people are gentle and delicate with their Mosins but they are meant to be used and beat up.

Well I have one, a newer 2010 version, it came with two magazines, but I bought two more from Henry. I carry three loaded magazines with the disassembled gun, one in the action and two in the provided slots. I think some older ones only have one slot. The sights are displaced, but once used to them, they work well.

 

[Phantom Man]

US Model of 1917. Strong, great sights, reliable and accurate. And very underrated rifle even by Alvin (Sgt) York until he used it in action with great effectiveness.

22 in any form pistol or RIFLE.
Even though almost everyone starts out with one.
Or it is usually the first gun anybody ever shoots
They always move on to larger caliber guns.
And forget about the .22
