Mine would have to be my Remington Sportsman 58 shotgun my grandfather gave me as a keepsake before I was born. Grandpa was going in for surgery while mom was pregnant with me and the outcome looked pretty bleak. He gave this gun to my dad for safekeeping for me in case he didn't make it. He made it OK, but I still got the gun. Granpa passed away before he could ever see me shoot it though, but it is one of my most cherished possessions.
