I now have every handgun on my want list

[Shimitup]

Lord, have mercy! I'm gonna have to run an ad for my boat!

 

[GunnyUSMC]

Did someone say something about Black Powder guns?

 

[bannockburn]

Gunny

Now you're cookin"!

Love the Rogers and Spencer, the Spiller and Burr, and the Whitney Navy!

 

[NIGHTLORD40K]

The last two are Whitneys, yes? What's the one before that, Spiller and Burr?

 

[GunnyUSMC]

The brass frame, is a Spiller And Burr.
The last one is a Whitney .
The other is a Rogers and Spencer.

 

[Tallball]

It seems like a Super Blackhawk should be at the top of the list!

Or if someone somehow didn't like the Star Super B (a terrific pistol, BTW), there's always the BM.

Star BM 9mm

And EVERYONE wants an old Colt, of course!

[P5 Guy]

You sound like a communist sympathizer.

No sympathies to commies, 1911 just does not fit my wants or needs.

 

[SwampWolf]

I still have the "bucket list" I composed 56 years ago of handguns I wanted to acquire in my lifetime. I was confident that I'd covered all of the bases and certain that once I got every gun on the list, I'd have everything I'd ever want or need. As the years went on, every time I checked one off, it seems two more were added. What became very clear, very quickly is that there's a very big difference between want and need. My "need" list was completed after handgun number three or four. My "want" list is well; still wanting...

 

[Sappyg2.0]

This may not be a gun you want but it is the gun that I think you need:
S&W 617-6 4"...

 

[Sappyg2.0]

What no 686?. Yeah... you need one.

 

[GunnyUSMC]

I have a nice set of Houge grips that needs a 686. Just might have to buy one.

 

[Mike .45]

Luckily for gun manufacturers my want list and need list are two very different things.

 

[TN Outlaw]

No,

S&W 686?
Ruger Redhawk?
Ruger Blackhawk?
Not even a single 6?
1911?
CZ 75b?
Delta Elite?
Colt SAA replica?
Sig 226?
Ruger 22/45
Buckmark?

I better stop before I realize how many more "musts" I lack myself.

 

[Tallball]

Amen on the Buck Mark. That one and the K22 Masterpiece are the two that ALWAYS go to the range with me.

 

[Gottcha]

Your list has and end

 

[Sappyg2.0]

I have a nice set of Houge grips that needs a 686. Just might have to buy one.

Those combat grips just didn't work out for me but this set by pachmyer are just about right.

 

[huntsman]

Your list has and end

The trick is to have two lists, the needs list can be finite but the wish list isn’t.

 

[SwampWolf]

The trick is to have two lists,

What is wrong with you?

 

[theotherwaldo]

I only NEED one gun at a time.
Thus, my list of needed guns is only one item long.
I just find that I have no desire to dispose of the previous needed guns.

 

[Jim NE]

You are a lucky man to be able to see the end of your quest. In my case I don't think it is possible, there is always another gun I NEED.

Amen to that. I've slowed down, but not completely stopped.

I'm also happy for the OP. That sounds like an awesome collection - great guns to fit all of your needs.

 

[Al-jim19]

I’m a man of simple tastes and currently have a small collection, but I’d like to add:

A snubby .38
A Remington 1858 black powder
A NAA Companion
A Glock 34 with a red dot

Those are in order of need/desire.

 

[CopperFouling]

Are you absolutely certain?

 

[plumberroy]

wouldn't turn down that old Webley. Ain't saying something else won't be put on the the want list later . This also is limited to handguns . An AR is still on the rifle want list .

Well I scratched the AR itch. Shoot point blank had a flash sale Delton or DPMS for $399. The local store had the Delton. I put a 2x8 scope on it will shoot it soon

 

[RetiredUSNChief]

At the moment I can't think of a handgun that I want that is not here in the house

And so you come here, to the House of Temptation where your immortal soul has been placed in peril by the vile Demons of Dragoons, mystical Cabal of Colts, Succubi of Smith & Wesson, Beelzebub of Beretta, and (not to be underestimated) Gay Men of Glock.

(EDIT: Laugh. You know you want to...)

Bow down and prostrate yourself before the mighty 5 1/2 inch, color case hardened, .45 Colt SAA:

 

[huntsman]

^ that one is worth hankering for.
