These are still available, and come up on Gunbroker.com and frequently local markets. Still very popular.
Current prices are fairly high IMO, but you get what you pay for.

Truth of the matter is, you aren't going to run into any of these guns at the prices they used to be. You don't make
the kind of money you used to make. Times change but most of these guns are still available from someone getting
older and haven't used them in a long time. Just be willing to step up to the new prices.

I also wish that I hadn’t traded-off ( in 1969) my Browning Nomad 22 RF semi-oauto pistol. Not only was it a great shooter, but I saw a used (very good condition) one about 15 years ago ....the asking price was just shy of 10x what I paid for mine! memtb

The boat has come back around on the S&W 610, so I will buy one of the new ones in the next few years.


Surprised it took six pages for someone to mention the Anaconda. That would be at the top of my list.

I still got my 8 inch Anaconda. I wish I would have bought a 4 inch version too.

Recently I was gifted a NIB Springfield Field Armory 9mm XDs, like a single stack Glock with a grip safety. It ain’t the lightest, most compact nor the highest capacity compact nine (7+1 to 9+1depending on the mag) but I’m liking the heck out of it.

IT just went out of product, leaving me scrambling for extra mags and recoil Springs.

Had a shot at one of these a couple years ago. Wish I had jumped. Overbuilt but a damn good gun.

The Security Sixes are out there. Last January I picked up a pristine 6” stainless .357 for $450. I love it. It came with aftermarket stocks. I only wish I had the originals also.

Any Smith & Wesson 629-4. Mountain gun, 4", 5" and 6". Already have the 8 3/8 barrel DLX version.

'60's or '70's era Smith & Wesson model 41 with 7 inch barrel. Or the 5" and the 7" barrels both fitted to the same 41 frame.

H&K P7 M13 new for under $1000. Never fired one, but I'd like to give one a try.

I have a Glock 19 Gen 2 - new in the box - just to see what happens.

Didn’t read all the posts. I would like to buy a dozen Luger artillery models at the original price. I would want it discontinued right after my purchase.

No nubs, no rail, probably better triggers, that Would be my guess.
