I would love to get my hands on a .44 Automag!!!!

Colt first gen pre-war any caliber.

My wish list is for a very gaudy looking nickel plated Colt 1903 .32 ACP in excellent condition. Been wanting one of these for a long time. For what? I dunno. Also a S & W Titanium .44 Mag. snubbie (or a Taurus). The purpose of this is to blow of my earmuffs and fracture my wrist. But I want it anyway.

I've one eye out for a few:
Freedom Arms M83 PG - 4.75", 475 Limbaugh
Freedom Arms M83 PG - 4.75", 50AE
Freedom Arms M83 PG - 4.75", 44 Rem
Freedom Arms M83 PG - 4.75", 41 Rem
Smith and Wesson M63 - 3", 22lr

No buying for self until after Christmas...

Just remembered one that I'd left off: Smith and Wesson, Model 27, 3.5"

Yep here too...add to that a S&W Model 41 in the 5 inch version. Had both but sold them years ago when wife became ill

Yep, a Freedom Arms model; 83 Premier Grade in .454 with a spare .45 Colt cylinder is a very versatile....make it a 4 3/4" barrel of course for ease of carry...

The only one on my "must have" list is a Browning HP Practical in 40SW. I traded away its twin in 9mm. I don't regret that, but I do need to replace it.

A like to have is a Colt Gold Cup.

A blued 4" no dash S&W Mod 27.

I'm always looking for Colt "New Service" .44 WCF in decent condition that I can afford. The last phrase is the key one; I've found several, but they were at "collector prices" 'way out of my reach. I have my grandfather's "Old Model" NS .44 and don't shoot it any more, but would like to find a decent one to shoot.

You used to be able to find a frame off an abused one and fit it with factory parts in just about any caliber, but those days are long gone. Fortunately I made up a 7 1/2" in ".44 Smith and Wesson Russian and Special" before all the parts disappeared. (Found the cylinder on a client's desk--he was using it as a pencil holder! Talk about dumb, and dumb luck on my part!)

A 414. Supermag 5 shot stainless New Vaquro sized Bisley

My wish list:
1. Colt Series 70 Government Model in 45 ACP
2. Colt Avaconda w/6" barrel in 44 magnum
3. Colt New Service w/ 5.5" barrel in 45 Colt
4. Colt M1917
I do love the ponies.

Nothing too extravagant:

1. My first ever 1911 - something nice, but not too high end (any suggestions?)

2. A pair of stainless mid length barreled Ruger New Vaqueros in .357

Only one! The BFR .500 JRH when it comes out as a factory option in January. Never seen a revolver so accurate. I made a mold for Whitworth's custom shop and working loads I shot this at 50 yards.

Then we sighted it in and I told him to shoot the beer can at 100 yards and it didn't move so I took a shot and it fell.
Here is the in hole.

And then the out holes. two shots, two shooters.

I just bought 1 off my wish list. Beretta M9.

I would like a Wilson Combat custom and a Anaconda someday too.

Also, I can't remember the model but there is a top break (schofield style??) .22 at my gunsmith that isn't a dream gun but looks like fun but I keep forgetting to bring cash when I am there. For the life of me I can't remember who made it...
