I don't know about conventional wisdom or anything, but I find myself putting the same parts on all of my guns. Like, if it uses an LPR, I'm probably going to put a Rock on it. Or I'm going to modify it for a Rock. All of my cockers have/had Rocks, my old Impulse had a Rock, and now I'm trying to figure out how to put a Rock on my B2K4. And it has to be the standard long Rock with a knob. None of that Micro Rock crap.
I really like the CP on/offs. They end up on most of my guns. I like the meaty grip of expansion chambers. So I use those where I don't need a reg. If I do need a reg, it's most likely going to be a CP. Unless it's period incorrect, then I'll use a Stabilizer or one of the ANS Unireg knock-offs. Bottom line female Stabs are deeply underappreciated.
Pumps absolutely must be Cali style with a long loop of steel braid going to the valve. They just don't feel right otherwise. And they have to have an Ammo Box style loader (usually my Brass Eagle). And I add quick disconnects where I can. I try to steer away from macro (though I don't hate it or anything).
Edit: I did think of one, I guess. I prefer Mags over all else. But not the fancy crazy lightweight ULE and custom body variants. I greatly prefer steel bodies and classic valves and level 7s. I've had ULE mags, and they're nice, but they don't look right to me. I always end up selling them. My centerfeed steel mag I've managed to hold onto for coming up on twenty years.
