My input:
Bolt action rifle: Remington M700 MILSPEC 5R .308
Semi-auto rifle: Springfield Armory M1A .308
Shotgun: Remington M870 Marine Magnum 12 ga.
Small caliber rifle: Marlin Golden 39A .22
Semi-auto handgun: Colt SS Gold Cup .45 ACP
Revolver handgun: Smith & Wesson Model 19 .357 Magnum
FYI - The M700 5R is the most accurate riflr I have ever owned.
I guess the meaning of “affordability” is in the eyes of the beholder. :)
