Small game: Ruger Mk 2 target 5.5" bull barrel Volquartsen competition kit plus installed with Leupold 2.5x8 scope. I picked it over some other good choices I have such as an identical Ruger mk 2 target with green dot reflex on it, a Browning Field Target, a Browning Bullseye, a Smith & Wesson Victory, and several others.

Self defense: A Sig 365. It just works well for me in several different scenarios. I picked it over several other good choices I have such as a customized Sig 938, a S&W 1911sc, two Glock 19s, a Glock 26, a Glock 42, a PPK, a LCP, a SP101, and others.

Large game: A S&W 629 vcomp with 5" barrel (it was a special run many years ago). It has accounted for a number of deer and other critters over the years. I picked it over other good choices such as a S&W 69, a Ruger Redhawk, an xframe in 460, and others.
