What is it? I really like 1911 and Hi Power, and I do have a good sample of each that I am quite happy with. I want another 1911, but that's another story.

What's a gun that you really want, but still don't have?
 
Ed Brown Kobra Carry :( Some day I will have one. on a more realistc level, I really want a S&W 4040PD. I will get one soon.
 
Stone cold out of the box reliable 4" 1911. Maybe there isn't one?

Model 629 Trail Boss, Deluxe Anniversary.

Model 66 F Comp

Sig Sauer P232

Ruger SP-101

CZ 97B

FNH Compact Hi-Power

Springer XD-45 If they come out with it?

There are others, especially used gun that are no longer made. But for new handguns, it would be the above choices. Oops, the 66 F Comp is no longer in production, my bad. But I think you can still find them NIB.

The Springer Lightweight Compact that I just sold was 100% reliable. I think Springfield might have stopped making them--maybe they heard that 4" 1911s are supposed to be unreliable...

To answer the question: I really want a 4" Colt Diamondback in .22lr in great shape. Judging by the prices, I think I'm not alone.
 
After some significant buying over the past three years, I have my list of must-have guns limited to the following:

Ed Brown Kobra Carry
S&W Model 17
20 ga. O/U
.300 WSM Bolt Action


Would like, but not on priority list:

Colt Anaconda
Wilson Combat CQB
Benilli M1S90
S&W Model 27
 
STI LS9 or LS40
thin as a Kel-Tec but still a classic 1911 design. I generally hate compact guns that are just chopped down versions of the fullsize model, the LS9 & LS40 (and Detonics Combat Master) are not that at all.
 
I should really say, it is not that I don't have these, I just want better examples.

I want another one of these that is not a refinished and has all of the certificates and other "stuff". I would prefer a 7 or 8" barrel (quite rare) but another 6.5" would be ok.

For those of you who missed it, this is a S&W 1939 Registered Magnum.

Can I post #2 in the want list???

I want one of these that I can shoot. Mine is un-fired in the box and dang it, after 30+ years I just can't bring myself to do it. It kills me to have it and not shoot it though.....
 
Greeting's All-

Well, I can really think of many; but I will list the top five:


  • * a LNIB factory nickeled Smith & Wesson 39-2 9m/m
    * a LNIB 5" Smith & Wesson model 27 .357 magnum
    * a LNIB 4" Colt satin Combat Commander .45ACP
    * a NIB Walther P-88 9m/m
    * a LNIB 4" stainless Ruger Security-Six .357 magnum

As I said, there are many others; but these would fit in my
collection very nicely.

The CZ 97B. I would have it except that I am stuck on the 9mm cartridge currently. Its just too inexpensive. Someday though. I will have my 97B.

I have three wishes.

1)An Automag w/both barrels(357&44)

2)A pair of SAAs 5.5 & 7.5 nickel/buffalo/Colt45

3)A pair of Beretta 93Rs.Accessories to include a stack of mags,a pile of ammo,& several bushels of overripe fruits.:evil:
 
#1 on the list would be a Pedersoli Billy Dixon or Quigley Sharpes in 45-70. I just have absolutly no use for one and no place to shoot it
 
A custom 6" STI Eagle with all the fixin's. I won't shoot open division with anything else. But at $3000+ I cringe at the thought.

Guess I'm stuck with Limited, L10 and Production guns.
 
I want another chance at the unfired 4" Royal Blue Colt Python that I could have bought for $550.00 a while back.
 
On my list of future acquisitions is:

FAL - Having trouble finding one in good condition here in OKC

Savage 110FP in .308

An AR-15 after the AWB sunsets (one that works - unlike my last one which was a POS)

CZ-452

I'd kinda like to have a Colt Anaconda and a Python but just cannot justify paying the current going price.

A full auto Thompson and a full auto BAR would be cool but that's a pipe dream that won't ever happen because I'm not willing to get down on my knees and beg the government's permission to own one.
