Remington 870 is the only gun i own so far, also my first gun, I plan on keeping it till the die I die, awesome gun.

UUUGH!! Not sure about this list.....

How can you have a list of the best guns ever made and not have Colt mentioned anywhere in the list...

c'mon

I agree it is an excellent gun but, for the life of me, I cannot see the beauty in the Ruger 1. I've held them and tried to like them, but to me, they are just plain ugly. For a single shot I much prefer the looks of the Winchester 1885/Browning B78. Mine were super accurate, well made, and gorgeous.

I must read this article 5 times a year and I enjoy it every time.

the savage 99 has got to be one of the greatest most uniquely made guns of all time. I think there are more 99,s functioning & hunting today as well as the 94,s. ONE AWESOME RIFLE IS THE 99,s

I found thaat the best one is the one in my hand at the time I needed it.

But the list is ok, some I wouldn't consider the best, but then again I am a fan of the lever guns, and love my Winchester 1887 12GA. Heavy and reliable, with a steel buttplate, none of this rubber recoil stuff. The other one is a good ol Winchester 94 in 30-30, accurate and reliable also, taken several deer, rabbits, squirrels, woodchucks, and even a pheasant on the fly.

Since the article is titled The Best Guns Ever Made should have a subtitle for what purpose. Hunting? Or just Best Guns Ever? Some VERY significant ones were left off this list - Colts 1911, The Peacemaker, Brownings Hi-Power, the M Garand, the M1A1, the AR-15. What about Holland & Holland? Nothing of theirs made the list.

My 1949 Pre 64 Winchester in 270 is wearing a Accurate Innovations stock these days to take advantage of their full stock metal bedding system and laminate like stok make up. The rifle looks and shoots great, it is the rifle I took the Mulie in the accompanying picture. I do not think in my taste or opion I can find a better bolt action rifle. It is hefty, but helps reduce felt recoil and increases accuracy IMHO. I like the back up iron sights. The bolt movement is smooth, the extractor has never failed and the trigger is crisp with no creep or over travel. It is my favorite hunting rifle and I own several others,i,e, Weatherby, Browning, Kimber ,Remington, Ruger, Savage, Sako, Stevens and Steyer.They are fine shooters but the pre 64 Winchester Model 70 Bolt action is special to my shooting preferences.

I will step out and say I disagree with a lot of the guns listed here. Several lever actions listed... the Marlin and Winchester? Why? I know they are different designs, with the top vs. side ejection, but the Winchester is an American icon. I would have gone with a commemorative saddle ring Model 94 and left it at that. And why the Mauser 98 and the 1903? The 1903, along with the .30-06 cartridge, were both blatant rip-offs of the Mauser and 8mm design; so much so that the U.S. got sued (and lost) on patent infringement. Either go original, and pick something nice like a Czech (Brno) made 98K copy (all the fine machining, no NAZI marks) or go with a 1903 (the copy, but made in America). No sense in listing both, it would be like listing a Ruger Mk I and Mk II- only minor differences between the two (such as capacity).

I think the Ruger .22 does have a spot here, but that is in my own humble opinion. It is a very fine, albeit heavy, .22 pistol with sights and accuracy that go well together. I own a P22, and I will be the first to say its sights stink.

Another question- why no autoloading centerfire pistols? The Sig 226, a perfect example of fine machining meets reliability meets modern manufacturing. And why no AR-15? The original 5.56 semi-auto (when the .222 Remington was modified to become the .223 Remington and adopted for wider mass production standards, in the form of 5.56 NATO) that was adopted by the military in select-fire forms, has been used by the U.S. for over 45 years, and has been used in some form by dozens of other countries (Canada for instance).

And why so many over and under shotguns? The Remington Model 32, really? Good guns are examples of pulling through the times with quality and reliability, and hopefully, guns that make a historical impact. The Model 32 was too expensive for its time without offering any benefits, and a complete failure because of that.

I will come out and admit, I own 18 guns on this list, and to be honest I do not see why some of them are on here. The triple lock? Again... a very nice pistol, but not a success. If we are going to mention high end guns with a high price tag and fine machining, why is no Anschuetz listed?

And why, why is "The finest battle implement ever devised" (M-1 Garand) not listed, either? No 1911, one of the biggest successes of John Browning, copied by the Russians (TT-33), Spain (Star), and in use for almost 100 years in different configurations? Popularity and historical impact both seem to have been largely forgotten in this list... in fact, what was it even based on?

Very informative piece, I learned alot. I do agree that there were some huge omissions, and some that made me wonder how they made it, but still very interesting. I own a pre-64 Model 70 .270, and I can honestly say, it's the best bolt action I've ever shot. To surpass it requires much more money than I have to spend. I agree w/the M1 and 1911 outrage. I'll throw another in for good measure, and possible hostilities, the AK-47. Many rifles on this list were attributed w/function and reliability. Foreign or not, like it or not, the AK is the pinnacle of both. I'll further stir the hornet's nest by saying it deserves to be on this list waaay before any AR. Enjoyed the list non the less.

good list overall but i got a gripe or two.
i am lucky enough to own 6 of the guns on this list
Springfield 03
S&W 500
remington 870
mossberg 500
t/c encore
ruger 10/22

all great guns all prized

but 2 that should be on the list
Glock u pick ( i have 10mm and 40S&W)
clt

Where's the Super Blackhawk?

Where is the 1911 I know they they are mainly talking about hunting guns but the 1911 was revolutionary.

My father has a Ithaca model 37. It is a great gun and it kicks like a mule, I was twelve The first time I shot it and it nearly knocked me on my can!!!!!!!!! You are garuanteed not to miss this is a super accurate gun.If the bead is on the mark whatever it is, is down.

The Model 870 Shotguns is the most popular Shotgun in Firearms History and i own one!!!!!!
Yet this remarkable shotgun has been around for almost half a century, and has become the best-selling shotgun of any type in history, with over nine million made.

i like the win. model 70 but i think the model 94 should be first on the list, i mean thats just the classic rifle plus its really a good gun

We all have our favorits and the Rem 700 is my choice. I do not like teh Claw extactor formany reasons, which Iwill not get into. I just bought a MarlinXL7 ad its simular to the 70 in many ways,but my overll choice is the Remington 700's.I love teh feel and the accuracy I;m able to obtain. If had to sell off all myfierms, the 70 would be teh last to go. The new 700 assembled in SC is just that assembled.Parts come from all over the world then assembled in S>C.I liked teh looks and feel of the Weatherby till i saw stamped on the bbl made in Japan.Marlin has alwaysmade a quality fiearm , just not as fancy as some,but very accurate in my hands. S for shotgun, I take the 1100 and in handgun,the S&W and Uberti. For a 30-30, will stick with my 336 MArlin for woods hunting here at home.If the gun fits you and comes up as if part of your off arm, then that's the gun you need,Me a 30-06 is all any hunter needs unless hunting teh 2 big old bears, and if I were, i suel would want a back up shooter equipted with a 375 or 416. Never wanted all teh guns, just the one's i wanted. Some are not fit to be called firearms, a rock would do better.One last item, I never drop a shell into thechamber ( Winchester will not do that). I want the shell to come from the magazine then you know if all othr shells fit proper. I just like teh round push feed better than the CLAW extracto.Seen to many ruined in the Rockies and decided they were not for me. But again, to each his own. PS;I would like to Volunteer to work for 4-6 weeks a fewhrs daily and stay in one of their Cabins, then hunt NM fo Elk. Snyone got info on this subject/ if so guide me thru, Thanks. Shoot-um-straight and often.

I've been lucky enough to have owned 19 of this list (I still have 14). I have some problems with the list but overall it's American Sporting Gun History 101. There are some names like L.C. Smith that they left out but overall it's good stuff. I was glad to see the Ruger #1 on the list. That was the first new gun I ever bought. I still have it and love it so.

yeah the list is bullshit. all the rifles that served in the US military and some foreign like the AK-47 for example should on the list. They all changed the course of history for mankind good or bad and not to menttion the break threws that were made. I do like how the Mossberg 500 made it. Its definately tough and will shoot any shell you put threw it. thats why the US Military uses it the 590A1 to be exact. sorry about the spelling im in a hurry. Im in iraq.

I have or have had 10 or 12 of the guns on the list at one time or the other.
Some of them are great but a few greater one were left out ! The 1911 is one , if not why are so people makin so many copies ? Brno,s 611 22 Win Mag. one of the bast take down's ever ? The CZ 452 22 LR , some of the best rimfire's ever built at any price ? Remington 40 X ?
I know you cant list them all but some better choices could have been made. As for the custom guns....... they cost to much and the average guy cant have one or even knows what yall are talkin about ! Last, The Nylon "66" I dislike (hate) the fact that we have as you put it accepted plastic guns! To me a fine firearm should have a fine wood stock ! ! ! If all you want to do is own a gun, plastic, I guess is O K . If we are talkin best ever , no plastic for me , thank you !

I agree with mod.70 win. it was the first rifle my Dad gave me and I still have it plus a new super grade 300 win. mag. that handles just as good as my old 30-06 pre 64. Everone is not going to agree with this artical but for the most part I do . I enjoyed it very much I have owned most of them and still have several of them.

the Marlin model 60 is garbage. It looks like a table leg with a pipe on it. That's the most glaring reason why its not on the list. It's sales numbers are high because you can buy a new one for 60 dollars,and countries like Uzbekistan probably arm their soldiers with them (sarcasm). I'm not saying the 10/22 is my favorite rifle. I honestly would never own one of those either because I'm not into youth firearms. buy a Kimber, Weatherby, or cooper if your looking for a great rimfire.

Gee, now that I've got a good enough WiFi signal to see more than the top 3 picks, I'm convinced that Field & Dream's editors must've fired up the bong after the first couple of picks! They're about to drop a load in their pants over the M29, but have the Blackhawk way back in 38th place? Heck, the BH gave us an AVAILABLE .44 mag in the most excellent Flattop version long before S&W did. I think once F&S sobers up they should rethink the pecking order here!!!!!!

This is a complete disgrace to a lot of firearms. A bit heavy on the rifle and shotguns huh?? Could you maybe include a few...oh i don't know others like a SAA, 1911, or Glock. How do a few manufactures i never heard of get on there and none of the ones i mentioned. A Sako makes it but not a Glock!! Please

1911................ Seriously. The 1911 i9s the most common and one of the best firearms ever produced. The M1Garand.

I guess maybe the editors only wanted sporting or field guns. John Moses Browning was a genius and all of his designs are still in production today.

I agree with the Nylon66, Remington700, Marlin336, RugerMkI and Mossberg500, as I have each of them or 2.

I just had to say 1911. Yes people do hunt with them.

You forgot US RIFLE CAL 30 M1 the Garand and the Colt 1911. The 1911 is the one of the most copied guns of all time.

This article should be called: "Top 50 American Long Barrel Guns." There are barely ANY pistols in this list and no sub machine guns or machine guns. Furthermore, there is no factual data used to compose this list of firearms; it's all subjective. Overall, very disappointing.

Being as it was a Field & Stream list I maybe wouldn't expect to see a 1911 on it but the door was opened in my opinion with a couple of other handguns on the list that I wouldn't really consider hunting firearms. So if the door is opened for the 1911 I have to put Glock 17 on the list as well.

I went through every entry on this list and did not see the Colt 1911. I'm hoping I just missed it. If the 1911 didn't make the list, then the whole list is suspect.

Is this list in any particular order? If it is, I could take issue with some choices. If not, I agree whole heartedly with the list. I have both a Model 37 Ithaca 16 gauge, which is the BEST shotgun I have ever shot, and a Savage Model 110 .270. I have not had a lot of opportunities to use my Savage, but now that I am in north/central Kentucky I hope to use it much more. Thanks for the great story!!!

Some of these guns labeled as "the 50 best" seems to be reaching a little. Okay, I can see that the author wanted to leave out military flavored weapons, that'd fine. But....

.what about the Colt Python, Colt Anaconda, Ruger Super Blackhawk, Remington 760,7600, etc., Remington 11 or 14?

The XP100 made the list? Seriously? Come on.

I too differ in opinion from the author but if all of you who have posted would have read the article instead of just looking at the pictures you would have picked out that he did state that the list was his opinion and that it is going to differ from others, also he stated that his criteria was predominately hunting oriented. So before you all try to roast a fella for his opinions you may want to read the words and not just thumb over the pictures and criticize.

you are comparing apples to oranges and to peaches each gun should be comparied in it's own class

50 Best guns ever made?
But no 1911, M-1, M-14?
I think not.

Agree on serious omissions.

Where is the 1911, a classic handgun? And how about the Smith and Wesson Model 10, equivalent in revolvers of the Remington 870 in shotguns.

Maybe the Colt Model 1873 Peacemaker?

And if you're going to include the 1903 Springfield rifle, a Mauser 98 derivative, why not the M1 Garand, a truly original military design?

The list really ought to have been called the 50 best shotguns with a few other guns thrown in for good measure.

I guess when I saw the title of the article, " THE 50 BEST GUNS EVER MADE", my expectations were different from the authors intentions. There were many guns on the list that I expected to see, but I was really shocked not to see the Colt 1911 or peacemaker on the list, or the M1, M14,AK-47 and the AR-15, not to mention any guns from Glock, H&K, Sig and Walther. I guess the list should have been 100 guns, but even at that the ones that I have listed above should have certainly been in the top 50 of 100.

Interesting reading and fun stuff. I agree with most of the list as I have 7 of the top ten. But where is the model 88 Winchester?, surely that could take the place of the horrible model 500 Mossberg?
It looks like you were listing sporting guns so I guess I can understand no 1911 colt? or Python?
You have the savage 110 and no BAR? Rugers are functional but "Clunky" guns and the only ones that should make the list are the 10/22 and single-six. no single action colt 45? :(
And, if we are going to include pistols and revolvers then where the heck is the finest auto firearm ever designed.....the Beretta 92FS?
F&S is a sporting publication and as such this list should probably include only sporting or hunting firearms. This being the case, I think the most notable gun left off would be the model 88 Winchester which, by the way, was the gun used to take the World Record Whitetail in Canada a few years back (Milo Hanson's)
