I will graciosly state that in the realm of firearms, I have everything I want, thought I wanted, or could foreseeably want. Consequently the children's possible inheritance is quite small.
An Unertl scope, 1" tube, 16X, 2" objective, has faint stirrings of want for my Kimber 22 target rifle, but it is a real faint want.

A 696, a 3913, and a nice 15 or 67. And especially, the return of the WWII bring-back Walther PP, given to me when I was about twelve by a family friend who had taken it from a Wehrmacht officer he said "didn't need it anymore". In the flap-over holster with the very late owner's name penciled inside the flap. Someone tried to steal it when I was 14 and my mother sold it and another gun at a pawnshop for fifteen bucks.

Outside of some family guns that were stolen, one of them a colt new frontier that had belonged to audie murphy originaly, and seven others,
I would like to have a winchester 92 made to my specifcations. It would be the short rifle, octogon barrel, button magazine, color case harden, extra long butt stock with dark red fancy walnut, a williams foolproof, and in .256 winchester magnum.
2nd choice frank hammers colt saa "old lucky", or the triplelock he threw his wife in a shootout.

By the way, here again for the umphteenth time is that colt new frontier .45 colt. Made in 1965, serial #5355 NF. One of a consectivly numbered matched pair that he willed to his two sons. Whoever my ex sold it to in 1986 must be sweating as I have posted it many times elsewhere.

An old model 27. I know the newer .357s are, reportedly, better but the old model 27s look so cool.

For me, a NIB Bren Ten Dual Master set and a NIB Bren Ten Jeff Cooper Commemorative Model with everything including the certificate with the original signatures. Only about 25 of the first made and a dozen of the latter produced.
Just my little corner of the collecting world I guess.

Bizarre, I know: so much engineering, so little practical benefit.

Frank Glenn Model 10 PPC revolver
Howdy,
I'd like Model 10 Glenn gun. It is hard to justify a new one due to the stuff I have around now and I seldom see a good used one.
If I ever stumble into a windfall it will make two people happy.
Me and Frank.
Thanks
Mike

JimmyJ, I used to have franks auto biography "I am frank hamer". Dont have it anymore. Going by memory, frank and his wife and I think his brother harrison were driving through town and ran into a attempted assasination of him. In the gun fight he threw a triplelock to his wife that he was evidently carrying as a backup to his nickle colt sa 45 4 3/4". That was one of my favorite old books I special ordered almost 40 years ago and along with my guns etc she also sold that book. The book was also largely about how he tracked down bonnie and clyde. Ever get a chance, get it!

Speaking of triplelocks, I have this one. It was sent back to smith in 49 and again in 50 and target sights were added and refinished. It may be the most accurate handgun I own. I shot it off the bench many years ago against two other .44 specials I have along with a model 29-2 and it outshot all of them!

I've got a really bad Luger habit, so I'll leave them out. Top three on my wish list right now, in no particular order: (1) a nice Hi Power with adjustable sights (not the tangents) and spur hammer; (2) a 2 1/2" M-19 in nickel; and (3) an M-18. Oops, make that four - I'd also like an SW1911SC in the all-melonite finish.
I'd probably have bought 2 or 3 of these this year if it hadn't been for Maryland's new ban on EBRs. I spent most of my money on ARs and components before the ban went into effect October 1.

I really really want an original Iron Framed Henry model of 1860. Unlikely I will get it though. My second really, really is a Thompson submachine gun. It is at least in the range of possibilities.

A chief special (pre-36) target, or M-36 target that's early enough to have the flat latch thumb piece. They're out there, but they sure don't seem to be for sale.

My short list of S&Ws:
3rd Model 44 HE, blue, 5 inch.
Pre-war .38/44 HD, blue, 5 inch.
.38/44 Outdoorsman, blue, 6 1/2 inch.
Model 35.
Don't have to be collector grade, just decent looking shooters.
Other than that, just whatever I run across that stikes my fancy.

In the past couple of years I've developed a real fondness for the .44 Special. Have purchased, shot, reloaded and played with a couple. I'd be a real happy camper if I could get my hands on one of Elmer's pieces of history.

There are several copies available on Amazon. BTW, that book is not an autobiography. It was written by H. Gordon Frost and John Holmes Jenkins.

A Colt "Monitor", NIB. You might as well throw in a few extra magazines and a case or two of ammo.
