The thing closest to an oddball I have is a Merwin & Hulbert 44-40 single action. It is in such bad shape that I would not fire it.

Sexy? Maybe a Browning Superposed is my hottest.

My grail is a Hammerli 208.

I don't own, and haven't owned in the past, any unusual (aka Unicorn) firearms.

I also don't own any "sexy" firearms. Mine are mostly "utilitarian."

The closest thing to a "grail gun," for me is a H&K P7M13, and/or an H&K MP5.

1. Unicorn - Dan Wesson 15-2V 357 mag revolver, only had a 6 in barrel not the multi package.

2. Sexy - 2 tone P220

3. Grail - Jason Burton custom 1911. This would move into the #2 position when I got it.

Unicorn: While stationed in Italy, I owned a Franchi .22 semi auto rifle with a suppressor.
I was going to hide it a couch and ship it back to the US, but the specter Of Leavenworth caused me to wuss out.
Sexiest: Matching Colt Diamondbacks in .22 and 38.
Grail: Thompson Sub Machine Gun. Second choice: Custer Colt

Yooper, you rock. My deceased father's 22 diamondback still rests safely in his safe 15 years later. May have to find a 38 to go with it.

Unicorn - Seecamp 32 and Seecamp 380 from back when they were about impossible to get.

Sexiest - HK P7M8

Grail - Well I just picked up a PS90 so I guess that's off the list. Not sure what the next one will be.

I have two that pretty much fit all the categories for me.
Sterling Mk VI. Only 1600 were made, no idea how few made it to the USA. It's a real Dagenham gun, not one of the recent clones.


Stgw. 57. Not many in the US, and most of those are now in .308. Mine's in the original 7.5 Swiss.





I have my own style of humor. I call it Snarkasm.

Unicorn - HK P7XM9. Had one with a couple 10rd mags. Sold it 20 years ago.

Sexiest - SIG P210 (swiss made) any of the variants will do Smile

Grail - Had a SIG SG551 (swiss made). Sold it for some darn reason, so next would have to be a HK MP5.

The oddest/most rare must be a RMAC-A22W-A. Very odd, 1970 vintage turret .22 caliber rifle fired with toy pistol caps. Runner us is my Boberg.

Sexiest must be a simple TPH, not many pistols out there that are cuter than a baby PPK.

CWR was kind enough to allow me to fire both the sexy P7M8, and the grail PS90, on two separate occasions. Neat-O guns! The P7M8 was what convinced me to buy a P7.

The answer to all those questions would be my Glock 7 and yes, it did cost more than what I make in a month.
