-All-weather (stainless, synthetic) flintlock rifle. *I know, I know, but as long as the earth's made of rocks, that gun'll shoot.*

[pawncop]

Luger, nothing fancy, good shooter.
K-38
Ruger Blackhawk 41 Magnum

Actually, being an accumulator, anything fits.

 

[S&W-Keeper]

I think that I would like a 3" model 66.I have never had one.

 

[jkc]

I'd like to have duplicates/spares of various guns which may in future be banned, and thus irreplaceable. But, not that I have any compelling need for it, is a Kimber Montana in .308, which is among the sweetest rifles I've ever shouldered, and by all reports, a superb performer.

Short list

Autos
1911 (I am thinking about S&W compact ES- but also want a full-size)

Sig 232

HK USPc .45

Kahr (gotta handle more to come to decision)

Maybe an LCP if they come to CA

Revolvers
I haven't settled on specific models but I want

4" .357

4" .41 mag

6" .44 mag

maybe a .45 acp revolver in there somewhere

Long guns

Springfield M1A Scout

M1 Garand

a .223 bolt and .308 bolt

I'm young and have started to build the collection but finances are limited and obviously have a ways to go.

 

[Class III]

Not much is on the short list. But if a nice steel frame Mdl 39 were to find it's way into my Christmas stocking I would not complain.

Class III

 

[Steave]

For the most part, I rarely have any guns on my list; sure there are a lot of guns I may be interested in, but I am generally not actively looking for them. I pretty much just keep my eyes open and if something that strikes my fancy comes along I'll pick it.

 

[drfunk]

29-2 with a 6.5" barrel.
When I'm dreaming, a K32

 

[SPC]

Semi-Auto: A Wilson Combat 1911 and an H&K Mk.23 SOCOM variant.
Revolver: All I really want is Dirt Harry's 29
Out There: An M2 and a few Claymores are really all any man needs to feel secure.

 

[NCTexan]

Want to round out my collection with a stainless Sig P232.

 

[Knightrider03m]

Taurus 85 (Tie)
Taurus Slim (Tie)
Smith and Wesson M&P .40 (for when I go into the force)

 

[MattB]

My current short list includes a Walther P99, a 1911 of some sort, a .40S&W kit for my Sig 226R-22, and and M&P15.

 

[TheKySharpshooter]

Well if the list has to be short... I'll just list one from each category

semi-auto pistol - Glock 22
revolver - S&W 500 Magnum
shotgun - Remington 870 TAC Desert Recon, pistol grip version
bolt-action - Remington 40-XS LR 338 (yep, .338 Lapua )
semi-auto rifle - Rock River LAR-458 (.458 SOCOM)

Those would be the "ideal" guns for me to get my hands on, but for a realistic short list, I'm open to pretty much any kind of gun that I can get for the right price. I have an appreciation for all firearms. I have been thinking about getting a .22 pistol for small game hunting and target shooting, like either a SIG Mosquito or Walther P22. After that I'm going to start saving for either the S&W 500 or a good bolt-action.
