I obviously have too much time on my hands now I am back in the UK and have decided as a mental challenge to make a list of what in my view are the top ten iconic firearms . I am very happy to get input from others before I finalise the list . e-mail to jonhinch@msn.com The criterion I am using is that the firearm must be easily recognised , must arouse passion and have a place in history . It must be a gun than any " gun nut " should be able to name instantly . Here is my top ten . Information links on clicking Here is my next ten all worthy of consideration . I would be glad of input as in reality this is a matter of opinion .
