What gun are you on the lookout for?

[bdGreen]

A factory nickeled, non-engraved, 6" barreled S&W Model 45-1.

Show me yours.

Model 66- 3 inch Nickel for carry
Model 48/49 for carry
Model 13 RB- 3 inch

As I've gotten older I find that I love revolvers for CCW.

Well....
Not in any particular order, I could go for a 3" Model 66, a 2 1/2" Model 10, a fixed-sight Model 19, and a 696.
A lesser choice (only because I have 3 others already) is a blued Model 15, 2" in very good to excellent condition.

 

[bananaman]

These come to mind....... 2" Model 15, 25-7 with unfluted cylinder, and CZ75. I've got the rest pretty well covered. Bob

I have been looking for a 4 inch nickel 25-5 and an 8 3/8 inch nickel 57 here in California for the past 20 years !

Dude!! I posted on the WTB a couple of months ago.
25-5 4" Nickel.
A gentleman from this forum came through and the deal was done

I'm maxed out. Enjoy looking but no longer in the market for anything specific.

Most likely be starting to sell off items in the near future.

I guess that I'm kind of in the same boat...I wouldn't mind finding a nice Reg. Magnum or Triplelock but I'm afraid that I could never justify to myself paying the price.

One specific S&W 1917. Got away from me years ago in a time of need.

That is about where I am too.

I want a Victory model. When I find them, they are badly overpriced or bubba'd.

Amen! My nephew's mother just gifted him his grandfather's Victory issued to the US Navy in World War 2. It's pristine! When I stopped drooling I got him a holster and lanyard for it. I don't know if he's going to shoot it.

 

[crasig]

I'd kind of like to own a decent Mauser C-96 9mm Broomhandle.. I had a good .30 "Bolo" once.
Very Keen to own a FN Hi-Power P-35 with Tangent sights & stock slot. VECTOR came out with a beauty - but I'd settle for an INGLIS - like the lady is demonstrating. I'd have bought them while they were cheaper - but couldn't afford then either.

H&K P7 for 500 bucks!

I bought one in 2012 for $750. Sold it the next day for $1200 I didn't like it.

 

[Mark IV]

My longtime rifle wish list includes a Steyr SSG sniper rifle, and a IMI Galil in both .308 and 5.56.
My pistol wish list includes all the LNIB old,stainless S&W revolvers I see posted here by that guy up around Athens ( I believe)
See? I ain't asking for much!

Edit: LOL, I thought I was still posting in my regular hangout, the Georgia Outdoors Trader!!

 

[Okie Red]

I would like to have some of the ones back I have let go of over the past 55 years.

 

[Bnd2003]

A Smith 1006, a Smith model 745, a Colt Delta Elite 10mm, a Smith 645 (1st Gen), a Smith K38 with 6 inch bbl in about 90% condition, and a 340 PD. That's it

 

[bph9]

I am on the lookout for any gun that goes bang and also some that do not. Did I leave anything out????

 

[lkabug]

As others have said, "I'll know it when I see it".
Now, about that price? Actually, what is the right price for that "grail gun" in great shape, box and papers you have been looking for years, and finally locate? Is it your "grail gun" or not?

 

[javbike]

I pretty well set up I don't need anything I had a ppks on the list got that a 44 mag model 29 got . I told my ffl I only thing to look out for is any type of mouse guns I will never buy a new gun again

 

[444 Magnum]

The reason I don't have all of these is that I'm a bargain hunter. It's hard for me to justify the cost to buy my holy grail. The enjoyment I get out of guns is significant..... But not enough to justify the cost of a say, a model 27 in fine condition. Finding a bargain is part of the fun, I guess.

This is why I don't respond to the WTB ads. I frequently have items people are looking for and I'm willing to let them go for a fair price to both parties based on current market conditions; but, after pm's back and forth, digging it out, taking and sending pics, and then the inevitable low ball offer, it's not worth the effort.
Enjoy the hunt, just stay off my lawn.

Another I frame .32

Sweet!
