A Blaser R8 in .458 Lott; it was enough to convince me that I didn't need to go to Africa.

Several Military weapons while deployed, but one first came to mind while in Sarajevo....U.S. Tommy gun....Noice

Having served in the US Army Ordnance Corps I got to play with (and shoot) a lot of interesting weapons.

What I found most interesting was in my civilian days, a Mateba Semi-Auto Revolver. Yup, a self cocking revolver. Was in 44 Mag and surprisingly enough the recoil was well managed, both by the sliding mechanism but the upside down relationship of the barrel to standard revolvers. The barrel is located so the round at the bottom of the cylinder is the one fired.

Over 60 years shooting I have shot many different types of guns. One of the most interesting was a 450 Marlin pistol barrel on a TC pistol frame. With recoil only a little short of a 458 Win. it sure does get your attention .

Well my most interesting wasn't an old buffalo gun or anything like that. My Dad passed away in July of '09, and he didn't have much. But of what he did have was an old Savage/Stevens Model 27 B 22 short, long, long rifle that had belonged to his dad, my Grandpa. My son was my dads only Grandson who was named after my Grandpa, that's why he got the gun. So it was interesting to me because after I fired that gun it had been fired by all four generations. My son is going to keep that one no matte what. (His words) I'm glad my son got the rifle, my Grandpa was my hero in my early years, he passed when I was 13 YO.

Easy one to answer. But have to do my top three. 1. MK-19 40mm automatic grenade launcher. 2. Direct fire M198 155mm howitzer. 3. TOW anti-tank.
Nothing say have a nice day like a few cans of MK-19 to the tree line you and your Taliban buddy's are hiding out in. Other than an A-10.

Browning BAR-I only got to fire a couple bursts but you had to pull that thing back to your shoulder after 3-4 rounds.

The 450 Brushmaster looks very interesting.
