A very interesting question. I have thought long and hard about it and have decided without reservation that the one gun I would have to "save" would be my grandfather's single shot Steven's Model 94 w/ 20 and .410 barrels. No, this is by no means the 'best' gun I own, but it is the one I would keep. Most of the others are replaceable even though I would miss them very much as they all have memories attached to them, but the old Steven's represents too much to lose.
