I have one I would intuitively pick. But that Dosnt exist. From sporting to combat, hunting , defense, offense, different terrains, indoor/outdoor , weather and elevation. Everything has its place. Some can do a lot if you’ve trained for a lot. But they’re just tools. There isn’t a best tool.

I’ll second #[2]​ here. There are some great “all purpose guns” that can do pretty much anything you’d need, but that doesn’t mean they do them all well. Right tool for the right job will always make your life better.
