It seems to me reading this that 'favourite' is a hard thing to pin down.Looking in the cabinet I spotted a M52 Winchester with Bausch & lomb scope,and got to thinking it's not for sale but not fired in many years.I wanted one and it turned up and now just having it sitting there is enough to earn its board and lodgings.
As to passing on guns there seems to be a unwritten police policy of not renewing elderly shooters firearms licenses and have seen several instances of this recently.
