Chuck Warner, a noted gunsmith, will shortly be in production of a limited number of the Bren Ten, they'll be selling for $3500. I don't know the number he's going to make, but I think it's only 50. I know there's a helluva lot of interest on his Facebook page. His pistols will use the Tanfoglio 10mm magazines for the Witness pistol, which are available and relatively inexpensive, as opposed to D&D's non-existent magazines. I'm pretty sure that most of this issue is spoken for, but there might be a few that don't have a deposit on them.

Chuck has built his own HiPowers from scratch, and probably 1911s, too, and they are spectacular. The preliminary frame and slide he's posted pics of, are equally spectacular, a lot cleaner than the D&D guns. If I had $3500 laying around, I'd be all over one.

uhh, OK.

2nd the Colt Woodsman. Make mine a Match Target.

Colt Anaconda 4" .45 Colt

Sig p239.....9mm or 40

.38-44 Heavy Duty
Registered Magnum

Do you want a 5", like that other guy? Or would you settle for the 4" or 6 5/8ths"(1st) or 6" (2 and 3) that they came in?

Colt SAA US Army Model. Original Colt Walker. Colt Paterson Revolver

Colt New Service in .45 ACP.

Just would like to be able to get Smith N, L and K frames in the 1980's configuration, pre-MIM and pre-lock. 50's configuration for N frames would be mo-betta.

4 or 5" SS Kit Gun.

I carry a 3" daily and concealed while hunting, but the law here requires 4" for actual hunting use.

Maybe I'm a little confused on whether there is a difference between the "K22" and the "17", but they still make the model 17 Masterpiece, they're calling them "Classics" or something now. I was getting really close to either buying a used one or a new one, but after a lot of research, I found that the accuracy wasn't what I had always been lead to believe, and a lot of people have significant problems with sticky extraction. Was leaning towards the new ones because they're drilled & tapped for a scope, which would've been the only way my eyes could take advantage of the accuracy.

Colt Woodsman Match Target W/4" barrel.

Had one with a 6" barrel that I bought new in 1970 for $145.

Sure wish I would have hung on to it.

Read an article on the S&W 22 revolvers. The old ones were shot by the gunsmith who build them. They had to meet a stand of accuracy. The new ones have a Hilary hole and are not a desirable to me. Hasbeen

The Sig P210 is back in production. Do you mean you wish you could have bought one of the original P210's? I don't think they were inexpensive, either. Check out prices on the used/NIB original P210's, not very affordable.

A smith and wesson 22 on a K frame (17,617,317) are one of the best shooting guns period. Ive never shot one with the hole on the side. Im only speaking up to the late 1990s or so.

Luckily I have both, but would purchase 1 more of each if I could.

Some of the pistols mentioned are currently available. When new, some of the older ones mentioned were expensive for their day.

I have a Ruger twin cylinder single six that if new would retail for $600. I paid $100 for mine new in 1975.

So there is a reason these guns were maybe passed by back then. In 1975, as a starting out accountant, even $100 was a stretch for me. Yeah and I had two kids and no house yet!
