Colt Python with threaded barrel.

Maybe a Desert Eagle in .45. Not the baby eagle... An actual Desert Eagle scaled to size that fired .45. It would never be done though, it ruins the image of Magnum Research.
 
A SxS .22lr could be a lot of fun....

Wow, I thought I was the only one that thought that...:)
 
1911s with larger safetys and slide releases to make them easier to use under pressure.........i fired one my first time today, a bare bones kimber, now i need one, damn not being 21....
 
Semi auto only variant of the Stetchkin APS,in 9X18 .
Modern Hi cap 7.62X25;CZ or Glock??And just to be a complete gun nut;how about a modern LeMat revolver???Think an N frame in .357 or .327 ,8 to 10 shot cylinder revolving around the shotgun barrel....I don't know if anything bigger than .410 would be practical ,but still...
Oh,and how about a stripper clip fed modern semi auto rifle....think an SKS scaled up to a bigger cartridge with better sights.IIRC,Simonov actually scaled DOWN from an anti-tank rifle design when they were ready to load the M43 cartridge;but were NOT yet ready to make AK's....

When another guy posted the same idea I had replied about such a thing being an NFA - regulated weapon requiring registration, background checks, etc. (Smooth-bore pistols are "Any Other Weapons" and have to be built by a SOT Class II manufacturer and sold by an SOT Class III dealer -- and you have to pay the tax stamp, etc.)

But I'd LOVE to have one. So the big problem then becomes, if you have a 20 guage barrel acting as the center pin for an 8 or 10 shot cylinder chambered in .357, how in the world are you supposed to LOAD that shotgun barrel?

The originals, being muzzle-loaders, could be pretty straightforward. But how would you design an open-able breech that's right in the center of the lock and mechanism of a revolver? I even considered making it some kind of removable barrel (threaded on the breech end?) that you'd have to single load. But that's going to majorly disassemble the gun.

I just don't think it would work. A great idea for a muzzle-loader, though!

Then again, I heard a rumor that there were a few modern versions once...anything is possible.

Actually, not so good. I've shot a modern replica -- you have to fire the shot barrel first. If you don't, recoil from the other chambers will cause the shot to "walk" and spill out the muzzle.
 
Id like to see the S&W 1xxx series made again, maybe an XD in 10mm or better yet a CZ in 10mm. I would also like to see Beretta chamber their CX4 carbine in 10mm or even .357SIG. That would make an awesome little rifle. The 10mm auto has been my latest crush for a while, so thats all i really care about.
 
First, others I'll endorse-
Colt Python.

My choice
1-Bolt action (short action) that accepts M14/M1A mags (or FAL or other 20+ round mags. Calibers would include anything from .243 Win to .358 Win. The barrel length would be the buyers choice depending on caliber. I want one in .308 with a 32" heavy barrel in the Choate "Ultimate Sniper Stock", one in .243 with a 20" sporter weight barrel and a Laminated stock, and one in .358 Win with a 16" lightweight barrel with an ultra-lightweight "plastic" stock.

2-Same gun built on the micro action to handle .223. Using the AR mags. But this gun needs a shorter barrel, but still with a heavy barrel profile.
 
Ruger Security Six and Speed Six.
Semi-automatic rifle, Garand or M-14 variant, shooting 6.5x55 mm.
Reliable, thin, semi-auto pistol in .22 magnum.
 
Reasonable sized .22 handguns, like Colt Woodsman, High Standhrd 'G' models, H&R and IJ revolvers. The Beretta .22 lr of the '60's.

Affordable, rugged and reliable pocketable .22's suitable for dropping in a pocket for a guy running a trap line, riding a tractor or just taking a walk in the woods.

No valid reason for them all to have bloated up to the size of 1911's, or bigger. S&W 422 is the last reasonable sized one I've seen, and it's a tad oversized.

Special sore point with me.

Regards,
:)
 
AR type variant shooting 30-06 with a 20 round magazine. If they exist I'm not very good at finding them.

Desert Eagle style pistol chambered for 45 Colt. If they can make one for 44 magnum, why not a 45 Colt?

High Capacity Magazine fed lever action gun for various calibers. (Actually I think these will be developed if another AWB goes through)

Reliable pocket 22 auto (Walther P22 is close)
 
AR type variant shooting 30-06 with a 20 round magazine. If they exist I'm not very good at finding them.

Cobb Manufacturing made them. I think it was only a limited run of 100 rifles though, and they went/go for $2,500 or so.
 
Single six, SS with faux ivory grips and chambered in .327 mag.

The .327 is, as I understand it, too long to fit in the Single Six frame, unlike the shorter .32 H&R. I would be surprised if Ruger didn't put it into the Blackhawk frame this year or next. Dual-cylinder with .32-20 would be nice, and putting it in the Flat-Top/3-Screw/Anniversary frame would be awesome, vice the bulkier New Blackhawk (.44) frame.


Me, I'd like to see some I-frame S&W revolvers for max pocketability. Either 5-shot .32H&Rs (slimmer cylinder) or 5-shot 9mm moonclipped (shorter cylinder).


I'd also love to see more .223 bullpups on the market. Unfortunately FAMAS is a gov't-owned corporation with no interest in the civ market, and not sure there's enough interest for a U.S. company to reverse-engineer the FAMAS when the patent expires.

Maybe the SAR-21 manufacturer could export all but the barrel and receiver, and partner with a US company to make receiver and barrel stateside? That's how Steyr is getting the "US-made" AUG back on the market.

Here's a SAR:

rimless 357? that would be expensive ammo. i think it would be cool though, better than the deegle carbine! why hasnt anyone made a rimless 357 autoloader it sounds cool!
 
My two cents worth!

Five shot Ruger .41 magnum made up on the GP100 frame in both 3",4" and 6" versions.

Five shot Ruger .45 Colt made up on the GP100 frame in both 3",4" and 6" versions.

Five shot Ruger .45 ACP made up on the GP100 frame in both 3",4" and 6" versions & designed for use without moom clips.

4" & 6" SP101 in .22 LR

Ruger SXS in 20 Ga.

Would also like to see Ruger switch to Millet adjustable sights on all handguns
 
Nothing exotic:

9 1/2" Single Six in stainless again , they still make the blue.

Blackhawk Hunter in 357 Mag -has been made in every other caliber.

Marlin bolt action 22lr with a walnut stock one more time. Tired of the plastic and mono-tone laminate stocks.
 
Smith & Wesson, 6 shot .327Mag Airweight, no-lock JFrame. While we're dreaming, lets make it old-school pinned and recessed too.

A US made AUG clone that runs, priced like your average $1100 AR and not $2600 and mostly-functional.

Some sort of polymer service pistol with 1911 ergonomics, including grip angle and controls along with a decent linear / non-pivoting trigger that's decent. That'll give us competition types something easier to transition to for other IDPA/USPSA division like production.

I'll second the Springfield Xd Carbine too.
 
a sub gun somewhere between kel tec and the mp5 that shoots 10mm, or atleast a subgun somewhere between the kel tec and the mp5. I don't particulary like the beretta cx4 but I might just have to take another look.
