I carry Springfield XD .40S&W.

But the thread said "My favorite gun." That would be a tough one. I own two Mausers (M48 & K98k) and I have 2 black rifles (Bushmaster Patrolman's carbine-modded and DPMS LR-308-modded). But it's still a toss-up since I love the 30-06 coming from a 1903A3 or an M1 Garand. That's just a small part of my collection. They each have a "favorite" factor that makes it difficult for me to put one higher on a pedestal than another.

I'm not from Texas. Wish I was. Living in Vegas. Tucson, AZ is home.

Loud is an understatement. I have no muzzle brake on mine. Bull barrel all the way out. So standing beside it is near painful. I've considered adding a brake or go ***** out and have it drilled for a silencer. Mine has the floating foregrip and Docter Optics 8X fixed scope on top. A couple trick parts here and there as well as a bipod and 4 mags.

My fave pistol is my 1980 (or so) S&W 686 4". I have fired literally thousands of rounds through it and the action in like butter now.

My fave rifle is a toss up beween my RRA LAR-15 modded and my Dads old Pre 1964 Sako 270 with a Redfield 6 power scope, my fave deer gun.

I had One and it was my Yukon's gun. In the middle of the night about 4 months ago some one stole it and left 1 of the three mags. If you want it let me know. mine was threaded and was in the works of getting it suppressed and bam gone

I too have kar98 mint but these are cheap to come by. I have M1 carbine on the way. Like the 8 mm, the 30 cal is sort of a pain to acquire. I've given up on surplus after a bunch of duds.

after reading many pages to make and informed dicision I bought a Ruger 380 LCP auto. the test using the Hornady 90 grain Critical Defense ammo passed the FBI tests by going thru 3 layers of denum and 11" of media. It comes with a clip of 6 + 1 in chamber. the author of the article brought down full sized deer with it which convinced me that for $299 the craftsmanship was well worth the money.

it is only $30. for five years here in Pa. but one needs to be careful that a carry permit is only good in a few states that recognize your states requirements..
