9mm beretta 92fs. Bought it on my 21st birthday and im 56 now. Put 10k multiple rounds through it with no issues.

Also have a case pocketknife that my grandfather bought back around 1920 that i still use regularly. Works great still.

Amazing that it appears to be firearms and knives that last the longest.

I agree on this, but you’re the first to mention a firearm or knife on this thread (other than one Swiss army I think)

If that was the case then the Remington 700 30-06 is my oldest item I think.

Papaw bought it for my Dad when he turned 18. So it’s now over 60 years old. I love the rifle but hate shooting it because of the recoil. I refuse to modify it with a new butt pad like a Limbsaver because it will mess up the original condition.
