This is an easy one: side by side Stevens 12ga! My dad gave it to me a couple of years ago after I've hunted with it many, many times. Probably the first 12ga I ever shot and maybe the first gun I used to take a pheasant. Could've been a Browning, though. I don't hunt with it too much now as I've had an 870 for a few years that just plain works for me. Though I think I'll use it this year to see if it shoots just a straight as it always has.
It ain't the size of the gun but the placement of the bullet.

I grew up shooting a Remington 870 Wingmaster in 20 guage so naturally I had to have one for myself. I bought a 12 ga instead though. I have since bought another 12 ga 870 express magnum too for turkeys. We had a Charles Daly side by side growing up too. If I was to buy another, probably a Remington! :thumb

Mine is a Browning A-5. It was one of my dads shotguns. It's been my favorite ever since I picked it up the first time.
Live to hunt, hunt to live.

Don't argue with an idiot; people watching may not be able to tell
the difference.

My remington 870 youth 20ga mag. I'm 17 now and dad got me the gun when i was 11 or 12, on thanksgiving day from basspro(1st time in 40 something yrs he hasnt been hunting on thanksgiving morning-same for me too cept 1st time in 5yrs) anyway that evening me, him and one of his friends all loaded up and went hunting(i havent even fired the gun at this pt in time) well about dusty dark a big cow horn whitetail walks out at 40yrds and with a modified choke and buckshot 6 out of 18 pellets went slap through him the others where just under the skin on the far side. Then dad's friend smeared blood on my face after he'd got to where i was hunting(tradition). dang i had a blast that day. since then i've went on to kill 2 bucks in 30 mins with my bow, 2 bucks in 20 mins with my ML, and 2-3 deer with that gun and 3 turkeys wiht it as well. Guess i paid attention a little too good.

Growing up I started with the good ole Rem. 870 express. I then went to a Browning over / under 12ga. And Now have a Benelli Super Black Eagle II 12ga. I will not be buying another as long as its still shoting. 10sign:

I love em all but my favorite upland gun right now is a Browning 525 20 ga. OU with 3" chambers. It is just a dream to hunt with and my favorite phesant load is 3" #6's or 7 1/2's plated which just stacks em up.
