Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Handguns What handguns are on your wish list?

S&W Md 21 44 spl case-hardened and a blued 6" Colt Python. I also have a 2" S&W Md19 that I would like to have engraved someday.

Thanks for thinking of me, but that is a later version. I am talking about the initial run of .38 with "tested for +P+" stamped inside the frame. There is one on Gunbroker right now but it is a bit pricier.

ok..I know the one...

Check the "Uses Guns" area of www.kitterytradingpost.com They have had them in the past...

now were to find the money, I have an old 44 redhawk
I can send them :-)I'd use their caliber but I have
enough cal's to reload for as is :-)

It's close to my wish gun! I don't care for the fluted cylinders.........

And the price on that one is WAY out of my league!

But otherwise, yea, that's it! I don't like shooting full power .454 loads so the .45 Colt cylinder would see most of the hunting use...but when in the company of big, brown, furry critters having hte .454 cylinder loaded and in place would feel a little more comforting!

My wish list is that I wish I could still list these as belonging to me:

- Two S&W Model 17's (SS which stands for stupidly sold)
- S&W Model 41 SS
- S&W Model 15 SS
- Colt "Government Model" (aka standard military 1911A1 but with nice bluing - got stolen)
- Colt Series 70 .45 ACP SS
- Colt Woodsman SS
- Browning Challenger with gorgeous wood SS (paid $75 for it brand new in 1968 )
- 3 screw Ruger SBH (also not SS but stolen in same burglary as the Gov't Model)
- 1913 Erfurt Luger (stolen - same burglary)

Of those I never had but want:
S&W Model 34 - had two 63's but the 34's have better sights.

Of those I wished for, acquired and did not stupidly sell, i.e. still have:
S&W Model 18
S&W Model 586 6" (bought in 1981 and still going strong)

Actually, I don't wish for much anymore. The 34 would be nice but the 18 does all I want in a .22 revolver. Got a .22 Ruger Mk II bull barrel, a couple of Blackhawk .44 Specials, a .45 Bisley, a 6" GP-100, the 586 and one or three others so am pretty well set for handguns...



... at least for today.

That is the second one of those that I have seen this year. The other one was exactly like it but had regular sights and a trigger stop screw. The original owner paid $2200 in October 2008 and put it up for sale in December 2009. I bid $1750 for it on GunBroker and it ended up going for $1950.00...NIB..the guy never fired it.

The gun I bought was ordered from the same gun store as the above gun but a year before by a guy in western Pennslyvania. He was using it as his hunting backup gun and had about 250 rounds through it... I saw it on GunBroker (I need to stay away from that site) for $1800...I was the only bidder....but unlike the above gun, the guy threw in over $500 worth of holster, bullets, brass, scope base...and the gun was mint with the box....

It was his only handgun...and he decided to replace it with...a Glock 20...so he threw in all the .41 reloading supplies he bought and never used.

Keep looking...the bargains are out there...dreams do come true..

The 3 on my list are a Glock 21, a Glock 30 and a 1911. I will probably wait until next year for the 1911 to see what kind of anniversary models Colt comes out with.
