if money was no object what gun would you buy???

Custom 1911's and a HK MK23

If money is no object, and if I am limited to just one, probably a Jarrett Beanfield Rifle in .280 Ackley Improved.

Just my .02,

20ga 26" Beretta 686 matte metal and wood, English stock

A super clean. all original Winchester Model 42

a BARRETT 50 BMG !

NIB Winchester Model 97. There is at least one out there somewhere.

A like new circa 1964 1100 and $55,000, because I'm not greedy.

I'm going to assume that "no object" = $10,000 and "gun" = shotgun (as this is the shotgun section).

I'd buy two or three nice older 870 Wingmasters with 18-20" barrels, cut one down to 14" for a truck gun, slap sidesaddles on the other two and commence using my leftover $8500+ for shotgun classes and BA/UU/R.

By the time I get through $8,000 worth of training and ammo, that last $500 should do nicely for parts replacement and refinishing... if they need it. If not, it'll go towards aspirin for my aching shoulder and some whitening strips for the big, stupid grin I'll be wearing.

Benelli M2 Tactical with ComforTech Stock & Ghost Rings since this is the shotgun forum.

Mk18 with the "happy" switch.

With that lower, you can scratch a multitude of itches, as it'll serve as a DMR, M4, 9mm subgun, 6.8 rifle, etc.

Luftwaffe survival drilling.

Barrett, hands down.

+1 for the Benelli M2 Tactical. For those who mentioned the Super 90: Benelli no longer produces the Super 90 and the M2 Tactical is the model that Benelli replaced it with.

Shotgun:Benelli anything,but my Ithaca 37 M&P has served me well for over 20 years.

My idea of bliss

An AYA No1 delux in 20ga, with 30inch barrels 1/4 and 3/4.
And the same again in .410, 30 inch 3/4 and full.
Oh, and enough shells to last a lifetime.

Probably a Beretta Silver Hawk. I have modest tastes.

I would love one in 12g or 20g, but no 30 inch barrels anymore

There's supposedly a small but unknown number of Singer Sewing machine 1911's that were made without serial numbers for presents to executives when the company was under contract to produce 500 early into WW2. I figure those should fetch a pretty penny.

Otherwise something in a nice Holland & Holland .700 Nitro double rifle would be nice at about 59,000 to 69,000 dollars.

A Luger.

And then, an MP-5K (saw one for $3000 back in 1994. Whoo boy).

What poster #2 said. I would like a Winchester Model 21 in a 4 barrel skeet set and an extra set of barrels with screw in chokes.

Freedom Arms .454 or a Ruger Flattop and have Hamilton Bowen do his magic on her!

Some kind of Benelli.
