I voted for Pistols, Magnum and crossbow. Although I generally have different preferences for different games:

TR1/A: Magnums
TR2: M16
TR3 Desert Eagle
TR4: crossbow
AOD: Taser gun ( I forget its name)
TRL/ TRU: Pistols.. although there's really no need to use any other weapon in CD's games!

AOD: Taser gun ( I forget its name)

Excalibur/Soul Reaver/Mjolnir, Pistols and Grenade Launcher (because you get to blow people up into pieces )

I voted for the magnums, rocket and the weapon artifacts. Magnums coz they can kill in just a few little shot, rocket despite its cumbersomeness coz its just nice to blow the enemies up in smoke and see their limbs apart (expecially in TR3) and the weapon artifacts, particularly Mjolnir because they're just *!&^@&%$ powerful!

I love the Dual Pistols most. Being cause they're Lara's signature weapon, they are what appear in cutscenes so it's nice if you've been using them the story flows and you always feel like it's a bit more of a challenge using them in game oh yeah, and you don't use up ammo. Good in the classics.

Then I love the Magnums just veing the pistols again but more powerful, and the ancient artifacts are fun and have played well in the storylines. making Lara go all over the globe.

I also voted for hand-to-hand, because I use to wish for it so much in the classics, and I really enjoyed it's intergration in TR:L.

My favs are the pistols - The obvious and classic choice but I use them almost all the time in the games. Other than that my fav isn't included in the list. It would have to be the desert Eagle from TR3.

I like the more classic weaponary rather than superweapons or hand to hand combat.

Where's the M16?

I picked Uzi's. I waited for them so long in TR-1 and was very happy when I finally got them. Great weapons, but I didn't like them every much in TRU.

Dual pistols never fail But I didn't like them that much in classic TR games.
M-16 ruled in TR2!!!!!!!!! I loved it! Too bad that they didn't bring it back in Crystal's games.
I agree with Love2Raid about the Uzis in TRU, they were much better in Anniversary.

Assault Rifle and M-16 are one and the same? I thought it's a different type of weapon. Well, I must say I liked it more in TR2.

Edit: I remember that Lara wasn't able to run with M-16 in Tr2 and it looked much bigger than AR in Underworld and Legend that's why I made a mistake.

Assault Rifle is a class of weapons, M16 is one of such...

Well maybe the rifles in L and U perhaps look more like M4's but thats practically the same... I bet nobody could tell the difference when being hit by them...

I don't know much about assult rifles but I don't like to use them anyway. Shotgun an dual pistols are much better in close distance.
