I'd like to see Charter Arms build a good quality but affordable 44 Magnum DA revolver, 4" barrel, adjustable sights, stainless steel.
 
How about a real simple request... wrangler/single six available with birdshead grip. Or just an affordable birdshead grip frame.

I know... too much to ask of them.
 
I can't really think of anything I'd go out and buy, there's still to many production revolvers I don't own that I'd like to.

Maybe as someone else mentioned an aluminum framed Kimber k6 in .38 special for pocket carry. But I don't know if I'd really go buy one, Airweight j-frames are so cheap and well made that I don't know that I'd give up mine for just an extra round.
 
An XDM Elite 5.25 in 45 acp...... Oh wait.... this is for revolvers...... I'd love to see a dedicated S&W 44 special brought back in a 3 inch barrel. Finding one produced before S&W stopped is an expensive venture.

:evil:
 
I would like to see a top break DA six shot 38spl that could be reloaded with moon clips, that has an over/under barrel so the top and bottom chambers would fire at the
same time with one trigger pull, with a 2 to 3in barrel length regulated to hit at say 15 to 20yds.
 
I'd like to see:

A lightened version of the Ruger Redhawk (similar to the "new" Blackhawk) in .45 Colt
A reissue of the Colt Anaconda in .45 Colt -- with properly dimensioned cylinders and throats.
A reissue of the Colt New Service in .45 Colt.
 
My own wish list? A remade S&W K-32. Preferably with modern adjustable sights (that means adjustable for width as well as windage and elevation). Fast-twist barrel for wadcutters.
 
It would appear that more Kerr made it to the CSA than the total number of CSA "made" pistols from Southern manufacture all total. Not including ones bought and paid for that got caught by Union blockade ships.

Yet every body and their brother seems enamoured of brass framed Colt "Confederate" revolvers.

Don't see much historical record of many Adams of any sort or trantor being bought by any governments involved in the War Between the States.

the Union or Northern States DID buy some Kerr and issue them.

The fact that the Kerr was different from more common guns with its side hammer and back lock make it more appealing to me.

A J Frame stainless 3" full lug (non-ported) adj sight 6 shot round butt .327 Federal. Like the Model 60, but 6 shots instead of 5.

A scandium/titanium adj sight 6 shot round butt .44 Special 3".










Of course both being made by S&W.
 
A Merwin & Hulbert replica third model army in 45 LC. 7.5” barrel.

I'd buy a Pocket Army with the parrot's beak grip, a folding hammer, and the extra 7.5" barrel to go with the 3.5". I'd want it in a traditional caliber, like 44 Russian or 44 WCF.

Of course I'd shoot nothing but black powder hand loads through it so the powers that be would have to ban me to the black powder section. I'd be fine with that as that's about all I want to shoot anymore. (smile)

Like this? This one is the 2nd Model, meaning it is an open top with scoop flutes. Made sometime between 1881 and 1883, all the records burned up a long time ago. This one is chambered for 44-40 (44WCF). They did make them with folding hammer spurs, although I have only seen photos of the Pocket Army with a folding hammer on the double action models. This style of grip is called the Skull Crusher grip, for obvious reasons. And yes, I only shoot it with cartridges loaded with Black Powder. By the way, the ones that came with two barrels were very rare.

What an elegant looking firearm!

Don't understand what you find objectionable about the sights on a K-32. Adjustable for width? That's a new one on me.
If you look at the top-of-the-line Olympic target pistols, the rear sight notch can have the width increased or decreased to suit the shooter. Either through replacement or through mechanical adjustments. If you look at a pair of iron sights, there's a light bar - front sight - light bar ratio. On the typical American-made target pistol, that ratio is about 1:4:1, sometimes 1:5:1...and the light bars are narrow. On an Olympic-grade pistol, the ratio will be 1:2:1. Big front sight, wide light bars...good for all conditions. Good for all shooters.
 
Back to the top on this one...

I want a single action 45 Colt with original Colt lockwork (including a hammer mounted firing pin), as strong as a Ruger, with a Ruger Bisley grip, and adjustable sights.

To get that, they'd have to change the lock work -- specifically move the bolt stop to the right, to prevent compromising the chamber walls with the bolt stop notch.
 
A re-introduced S&W Mdl 21 with 4" heavy barrel and round butt. Also, no stupid lock.

Failing that, bring the Mdl 40 or 42 back. With no lock.
