Just curious about "collections". I have an affinity for Winchesters M70s and 12s. I like the smoothness of the 12's actions as well as the pointing qualities. With the 70s it is also the smoothness of the action and the accuracy I have been able to achieve. Collectively it is both the looks and the connection to the "west" in name and the 1873 that has drawn me to them. Also I'm drawn toward N frame Smith & Wessons. In the way of Winchesters I currently have several 70s from .220 Swift to .300 Win mag and 12s from .410(model 42) thru 12 ga.heavy duck gun all being deluxe field grade with vent ribs. The Smith family includes models 25,27,29,and 57.

I will just about collect anything firearms related. Actually, I just started. The collection pretty much started with my Father passing away and me getting a chunk of the firearms in his collection. It is nice to have old stuff handed down.

I like lever guns and single action pistols Just picked up a 38-40 and a 32-20. But then I like any gun the louder the better.
