Could have one weapon, a place to shoot it and ammo what would it be?

Marlin 1895 45-70

I don't hunt so my preference on guns would be for self defense.

If it could be class 3 then I would want an M60.

If no license required it would be a semi AK-47.

I think most of us shoot 22's more than anything but since it's narrowed down to just one it would have to do any job required of it.

A Royal Ordnance L7 105mm gun with a Leopard tank attached. We would probably consider a Mk II Leopard with its 120 mm Rheinmetall L/55 gun though.
Do I get to choose the ammo? snicker.

[M1Tommy]

Well, if'n only one, and if'n others were footing the powder and such.... an 8"/55 Mk 71

MG42 or MG3, for the fun and resale value.

The BAR one heck of a gun

[JB White]

All this exotic weaponry! I was going to say a Ruger Super single Six and enough .22 WMR to last a lifetime. Oh...and a cleaning kit.

[SwampRatt]

105 mm recoilless with beehive rounds. Major fun

One weapon w/ ammo? Easy! It'd be a four inch S&W 686! If a rifle, then it'd be a left-handed Remington 700 SF-VS in .260 Remington or 7-08. I would lean hard toward the .260 Remington. Sincerely. bruce.

well, since we're fantasizing, it would be one of those big arsed buffalo rifles from the 1870's with a LONG way to shoot, and all the ammo you could fire. i'll supply the buffalo steel silhouettes.

When I was 13 years old, we still had cadets in our high school in Toronto and I joined the Bren gun group. By the time I turned 14 I could field strip and reassemble one in the dark and do basic IAs (immediate actions) to correct problems. I have always wanted to put a few hundred rounds through one to see if it really was possible to use a Bren to cut down the wooden range flag pole (said to have been a favourite WWII trick).

I used to have a Bren Gun -- found at a British dump at Siwa Oasis in Egypt. A fellow with our crew (oil exploration) found a BMW motorcycle with sidecar AND an MG 34. He made the mistake of shooting it where the authorities could hear, and they took it away and cut it up. I didn't make that mistake.

When you was a company commander what did you use?
