I'm stuck in the middle of the Holidays and am not able to buy for a few months. I'm curious as to what you want and why. I asked before(kinda) in a previous thread(I think). ;) So, anyway.., what is YOUR next choice and why? Any brand, caliber, or gauge...,rifle, pistol, or scattergun. Confess and you will be set free. Show examples if you can. You can also leave this thread up for the wife(husband) or potential Christmas buyer to see. :)

after a visit to local gun shops today i would say the S&W 1911 E series 5inch barrel. single side thumb safety. the feel of that gun was amazing. felt better than any pistol i've ever held. at less than 800 BNIB it will be mine.

Either a Model 1934 or Model 70s Beretta. (My mailing address is available upon request. ;) )
 
There are a few guns that I'd really like to get. I've been wanting to get a no-dash 640 for probably most of this year, so that's obviously on my list. However, I've been really getting an urge for a DAO 649-2. At this point I think it'd end up being whichever I find first when I finally get the funds together for one (which will hopefully happen early next year...*fingers crossed*). Of course, I'd also like to get another no-lock 642-1, but I want to get a steel J-frame before another airweight. I wouldn't mind getting a 2" 64 to replace the one I had to sell a couple of months ago, especially if it's a factory DAO/bobbed hammer model, but right now the J-frames are my priority.
 
Sir, what I actually need is a good .22 rifle, being as I don't currently have one. Should probably also look into a 9mm for Mrs. Ron H., probably Glock or Sig, for the same reason.

What I want is a whole 'nuther matter--and departs from the practical pretty quickly. :D

Hope this helps, and Semper Fi.

Ron H.
 
Next two on my list are a Remington 1100 Skeet Model in 12ga. and an early model Smith & Wesson Model 66 with 4" barrel.
 
1947 to 1950 K22 narrow rib...............this one had been posted by another member, of whom I'm jealous

Well, I just got an old model Single six in about 98% so I've got my Christmas gun. Now I'm looking at a 13' Whaler for my Christmas boat
( This will take some finess-it's a LOT easier to hide a new gun than a new boat ;) ). Made an offer-he will either be insulted or I will end up with a nice swamp/skinny water boat for a good price. Then I will just have to bite the bullet, beg forgiveness and promise not to do it again :D
 
Today a small insurance payment finally arrived. In January a smaller one will arrive. That will give me enough cash to do some serious looking. I want to find a nice 4" nickle plated S&W 19-3 w/ box, etc. I want to replace one I had during my seminary education (1979-1982). I've also been giving a lot of thought to finding a nice three screw Ruger .44 Magnum Flat Top.
 
Which gun do I want?

The gun that New Jersey will me keep in my pocket when I am outside of my house.

However, it's more likely that I will first acquire Registered Magnum No. 506.

I'm craving a blued Walther PPK, not a PPK/S. Can't afford a German one, or an Interarms either, so I guess I'll hunt a new S&W version. Got a source that sells them for 512.00 plus tax, so I may go that route. Other than that, a decent, AFFORDABLE snub 19/66 or a three inch 13/65 would be pretty awesome.
 
Dang fine guns you are lusting after. Some of you are just making me jealous. I'm hoping for a user 27 from a friend a Fox(A.H.) double done by Pachmayer himself. The wood is INCREDIBLE!!!! The two should be had for around $3K total. I guess they are worth waiting for.
 
I'm saving for a 4wd truck. Can't get to the outdoors driving a sedan. Yet, there are guns which are tempting me:

1. 1911 compact. Been looking at RIA. CCW gun. It has to have the ability to shoot SA (physical limitations). 3913 is out.

2. 30/06 bolt action rifle. I want to hunt elk in the future. Checked out a few cheaper rifles but they felt flimsy.

3. EAA or Heritage arms 22LR SA revolver. For plinking fun.
 
I would love a 25-any in 45LC., A snuby in any 45, and/or a #3 or DA in 44 Russian and I don't want to sell a kidney them! Ivan
