My next gun will be a shotgun, probably pick up a Benelli pump.
My wishlist though would be my father's S&W .38 Special. Classic cop gun given to my old man by my grandfather, who was a police Captain, when my father joined the Bureau. Other than that, I'd love the HK MP5 made for the FBI HRT. I also have been wanting a Beretta 92FS 9mm. A HK USP Compact for those concealed weapon days. A Sig P229 in .40. And for my .45 a Sig P220. That should get me through most of the standard hand gun calibers. Also, one of the old Browning's made back in Nauvoo that were engraved with "Holiness to the Lord -- Our Preservation." Truthfully the only gun in my arsenal is my trusty pop can shooter Ruger 10/22.

I was considering the 870 Express until dad gave me his Wingmaster. It's fun. I missed pheasant season this year, but next year, I'll be out in the fields blasting those things out of the sky.

Saw a nice used one at Cabela's at point of the mountain a few weeks ago. Nice choice.

IPU will get that gun when he pries it from my cold, dead fingers!

I like Berettas. I have a 9mm pistol that I bought at a Baretta outlet while on my mission. I had the place send it to me about a week before I went home so it would be waiting for me.
And yes, it's the stainless steel model like the one Crockett had.

The Beretta shotguns are very nice. And their handguns are amazing as well. Pick up a 92FS like the one I want and there isn't a gun that feels better in the hand. Plus they seem to get the trigger dialed in pretty well right out of the box.

I'd trust my Glock 23 (.40S&W) through anything.

Never been much of a fan of Glocks. Just personal preference really. And to be honest, most if it is the square look that turns me off to them. I know the .40 22 and 23's have been reviewed pretty highly though.
If I were to ever buy a Glock it would probably be a Glock 18. But I doubt I will ever see one in my life let alone buy one.
