I'll go first, I have always wanted a modernized version of a Lemat.  Big revolver with a shotgun in the middle, maybe .44 mag around 20ga...  or .22 around .410.  It is dumb, I have no use for it, it would probably suck to shoot, and if it was made correctly it would almost have to be a NFA item, but I just thing the concept is cool.  

As a runner up, I have always lusted after some of the old skool drillings, a shotgun or two over centerfire rifle.  I am not a hunter and have no use for this either, but its cool...

So whatcha want?

4-bore muzzleloader. Caplock will work, but flint is preferred.

ETA: Why is just because I like old stuff that goes boom. The bigger, the better.

50 A.E. Desert Eagle. Just because. Maybe one of the BFR (?) Revolvers in 45-70.

Open carry into Wallymart in a wifebeater and cut off sweatpants, just to see the jaws drop.

I've always wanted to build a Parker Hale M85 clone. It won't be perfect by any means but you can get close.

Not sure why, I just have always liked this rifle and think it's one of the best looking bolt action rifles next to the M401.

Think I came across the rifle in a 80's Gun Digest and just wanted one from then on.  

McMillian still offers the stock as a blank (flat top/no inlet) so the entire project will be a PITA.

A real one sold a few years back for 10k

The Volunteer Arms Commando. Some call it the Mark 3, others call it the Mark 45. Whatever. I think the manufacturer changed names due to issues, and the model names changed accordingly... ah FUCK. It's probably junk.

Anyway, it's a... quasi-kinda-sorta lookalike semi-auto ripoff abomination of the Thompson submachine gun. I saw one in a pawn shop in Barberton, OH 15 years ago. It was $400 and I wanted it, but I worked minimum wage in a fried chicken restaurant and couldn't afford it then.

I'm sure it's of questionable quality and not worth owning, but fuck it. I want it because I can.

I want a reproduction Springfield Trapdoor rifle.

One, I think they're neat and classy. Two, I want to go kill a huge fucking deer with it to make fun of these guys that lease hunting land that think deer hunting is hard. Three, I want to take it out west, kill an elk with it, and further make fun of those guys that spend big money on modern top tier rifles to shoot animals.

OP's big bore Lemat sounds pretty bitching.

I want a lever gun in .50AE. There have been a few conversions on Marlin 1894's. Threaded 17" barrel, full mag tube, 8 rounds of .50 ACTION EXPRESS. Maybe a .50AE Ruger Alaskan to go with it.

I had to google that.

"B&T developed the VP9 in response to requests from Swiss veterinarians that required a very quiet firearm for dispatching sick cattle or game injured along the motorway without disturbing the other animals or residence in the area. That is why VP9 stands for Veterinary Pistol 9mm."

Interesting.

My uncle has the one he shot himself in the head with mounted in a shadow box.

Grandpa died, I was about 10 and we were clearing out his shop.  Found the revolver and a box of ammo, so we went out back and figured might as well see if it worked.  Set up a log, he loads the gun and shoots it.

CLICK, pop. . . boom.  But it hits the log.
CLICK, pop, pfft, boom.  No clue where it went.
CLICK, pop, puffff, thump - hits the log. . . FUCK, shit, what the????

Turn and look and he's holding his forehead, blood starting to run down his hand and arm.

The slug bounced off of the log, came right back, and cracked him in the forehead right between his eyes.

Immediately fire up the mill, made two flats spots, drilled/tapped and bolted it to a piece of wood so no one else would shoot it

Yes!  I've always wanted on in .44mag and 20ga.  That would be the ideal hunting sidearm around here.  44 for the bears, the shotgun for the occasional grouse to become lunch.

The original.  

The Welrod is a British bolt action, magazine fed, suppressed pistol devised during World War II by Major Hugh Reeves at the Inter-Services Research Bureau (later Station IX). Station IX, being based near Welwyn Garden City, gave the Welrod its unusual name, being derived from "Wel" from "Welwyn Garden City" (a prefix used by covert equipment designed by Station IX) and "rod", gangland slang for gun, as a way to obscure its purpose.[1]

Designed for use by irregular forces and resistance groups, the Welrod is an extremely quiet gun thanks to its integrated suppressor. Approximately 2,800 were made, with as many as 14,000 including post-World War II numbers.[1]
