Originally posted by parabellum: I'd love to have a P7 M13, awkward grip or no. I may very well make a trade attempt someday, looking for one new or near-new in the box.
I'd also love to have a CZ-75 Type A. This is the early version of the pistol, pre-1979, with the short frame rails.
A Colt Python, 4" blue, pre-1970 production.
A Colt Detective Special, pre-war production
A Colt 1911, commercial, pre-1920 production.
A Smith&Wesson Registered Magnum, 4 or 4.5"
A Luger, specifically a 1902 fat barrel 9mm commercial. Scarce, to say the least.
A Colt M16A1
Your 2nd, 4th, 6th and 7th choices are all on my bucket list. Plus a ZK-383, a Merwin and Hulbert 4th Model Frontier, Mannlicher 1901, Schwarzlose 1908 and a Mannlicher 1896.

If money were no issue...
A Holland and Holland Royal double in 470 Nitro Express.
A matched pair of color case hardened .475 Linebaugh revolvers.
A Mauser 98 Magnum Diplomat in .375 Holland and Holland.
A Volkman Precision Combat Carry with color case hardened frame, and high polish blue slide.
In the real world...
A White Oak Armaments 24" Varmint Upper.
A Ruger Alaskan in .480 Ruger, just because.
A Marlin 1895 in .45-70 because dinosaurs.
A Marlin 1894 in .44 Magnum, just because.
More good quality commander 1911s, because my kids love them, and I don't have enough to go around.
A Win 70 or Ruger 77 in a caliber that begins with .4.This message has been edited. Last edited by: ArtieS, May 05, 2024 07:56 PM

Not everyone gets the same version of me. One person might tell you I'm an amazing beautiful soul. Another person will say I'm a cold-hearted asshole. Believe them both. I act accordingly......
