IWI X95.

Awkward, shit trigger, shit accuracy. And me still likely likely.

Hmmmmm...

#1) Swedish or Argentine Mauser Sniper rifle?

#2) Russian AK74 (I already have the Russian parts kits, just waiting to send off the parts)?

#3) Another SLR-106?

#4) Another tuned 1911?

Also a FG42 in .308, so I could afford to feed it.

A FAMAS G2 that looks like a G1.

And a 6" S&W 629 half underlug with 75% American Scroll master level engraving, with some wood grips.

That Bradshaw is a lovely design! I do believe I'll look into that, if it's a recent patent or an older one, etc... as that would be a fairly simple home build.

I prefer the aesthetics of his older falling-block design that he doesn't appear to make anymore (essentially a double Ruger No.1 with one block for both barrels) but the rising block certainly has advantages. Simple take-down and easy barrel exchange (he'll sell matched barrel sets) are big ones.

Not quite 22lr but lewman arms is making 7.62x39 conversions for them, my dad got one for his, runs really good. Seeing as you can get x39 for under $200 a case delivered? Much cheaper then 308 or 8mm.

A Gatling Gun has been on my bucket list since childhood.
I shot an 1874 camel at EoT last week.

I am most certainly convinced I want one more now than ever.
I also know I have nowhere to put it.
The living room's not big enough & I don't think it'd make a good dining table.

A modern, hand-cranked* Gatling in a common, useful caliber, like .357 or .30 carbine. (.22cal Gatlings are toys, and .45-70 is stupid large and expen$ive.)
I've been promised by the g/f that if I ever get a Gatling, we can put a pintle mount in her Jeep!!

*hand-cranked Gatlings are not machine guns.

The other gun I had an irrational desire for was a Mauser C96. I wanted one since I got a hand-me-down toy made from pot metal, back in the early 70s. I finally scratched that itch ~2.5 years ago. It's fun as hell to shoot.

One of those quad-.50 AA setups.

View Quote

Many years ago Dillon precision had a cover girl on their magazine showing her wearing a little short black cocktail sheath dress standing with an anti aircraft Quad 50 mount setup. One of the women at my office saw me looking at the magazine and said "The only reason she is on there is because she is wearing that dress". My response was "If they would let me shoot the quad 50, I would wear that dress!"
