Yea, same here. But only in 28 gauge, I had a 28 when I was young, like a fool I traded it off. Now I have been trying to replace it but so far I can't come up with the money for a Stevens.

I never did post an "if I could" response. I think that I'd select an old friend; a M1918A2 BAR. It weighed in at 19 pounds, less magazine, but had the advantages of working when dirty and putting out a serious rifle round. Rifle or the heavier machine gun ammunition could be used. It could move you around on full auto but was easy to control with short bursts or semi auto fire. The weight reduced felt recoil. Firing off hand at the range on semi-auto, 10's and x-ring shots were easy.

Thanks to all that have posted about what you would wish to add into your collection, some nice weapons new and old. Keep in touch and keep those rounds going down range!

Oh yeah... it's real.
