Just thinking about some handguns that don't exist ... ones I'd buy if they did (in case y'all can't tell, I'm missing my little MK40 and I'm thinking about carry guns ... but if anyone wants to add to the flow of ideas, there's no need to limit yourself to CCW pieces).

Some of these are good ideas, some are kinda stupid, but what ya gonna do :neener:

  • CZ75 PCR w/slim frame that uses single stack mags (I'd carry a PCR if they weren't so fat) ... maybe one in .40S&W to boot.
  • Kimber UltraCarry in 10mm
  • ParaOrdnance P6-45 (single action version of the new C6-45LDA)
  • HK P7M7 (the .45), only the same size as the P7M8, and maybe a 10mm version of it too :p
  • Beretta 87 in 9x19
  • That new subcompact SW99, only it actualy be a Walther p99 subcompact
  • .45 or 10mm version of the Kahr K and MK
  • Kel-Tec P-3AT chambered in 9x18 (yeah, its silly, but I'd like a light plastic Makarov)
 
OK, here is one for you:

Frame like an STI 2011 single-stack (i.e. polymer grip on metal frame), but with a titanium instead of steel frame.
A linkless AND bushingless bull barrel system with a fluted chamber and gain-twist rifling
Proprietary ultra-heavy duty extractor system
9+1 rounds of 10mm Auto caliber
No grip safety, with grip area shaped like the STI beavertail
100% ambidextrous design... slide release, mag release, and thumb safeties.
Designed & timed specifically for the 10mm Auto cartridge
Heinie Slant-Pro sights standard

:evil:
 
Well, a USP in 10 mm w/ a drop in 357 sig barrel would be cool & a 92fs w/ a steel frame would be nice.
 
SINGLE STACK polymer body 1911, slightly slimmer than the steel version, ditch the grip safetly, replace with squeeze-cocker unit a la HKP7, except in the rear.

Second choice, as above on conventional frame. Which was done once, or so I'm told...

That'd about do it for me, I think. :)

Any of my favorite double-action 9mms-- SIG P226, Taurus PT-92, or CZ-75B-- with a double action mechanism with a straight-pull, not hinged, trigger, like the 1911, so you can put in triggers of different lengths easily.

A CZ-75B that drops out magazines like a 1911.

A CZ-75 Standard IPSC with a METAL trigger.

Brian Enos said it would be nice if there was a major-caliber gun with a magazine in front of the trigger guard, like on those high-priced .22 target pistols, so you could have complete flexibility in the shape of the grip. The forward weight distribution would reduce muzzle flip. I would want one of these in 9mm, with a single-stack 10 round clip.
 
A single stack Glock with a grip angle matching a 1911.

A Beretta 9000 in 45 ACP

A K Frame sized round butt 5 shot 45 ACP revolver with a 3 in HB (kinda like a 65LS on steroids)
 
SIG P245ST (to go along with the awesome P220ST)

Glock 34/35 chambered in .357 SIG

Glock 26 single stack

Glock full size (G21) single stack in .45 ACP

Bren Ten copy produced by S&W or Colt chambered in .45 ACP/10mm/.357SIG

S&W L frame .357 Mag 3" barrel
 
Iver Johnson-sized 5-shot breaktop revolver in modern steel and modified latch to handle a lifetime of 9mm +P, hammer profile changed a bit so I can take a high grip, in stainless or TiNi finish like Tennifer and bigger sights including a Tritium option.

It should work without moon clips. ??Would the Ruger steel spring system or the Medusa expanding-star ejector work better??
 
Let's see:

Colt 1911s with the features Kimber has made standard (without the firing pin block, thank you).

Three Screw Ruger Single Actions.

Series I Kimbers while we're at it.

Pinned & Recessed S&Ws without a hammer lock.

SP1 AR-15s.

Blue Steel S&Ws.

M&P N-Frame Smiths (like the Model 58) in other calibers (44 Special, 45 Colt, 45 ACP).

"No Sir, I don't want to see any new guns. Which way to your used gun counter!" It would be nice to not have to say that in every gunshop I go into.
 
How about a newly manufactured C-96 mauser, that way we wouldn't worry about 'metal crystalization' and could all play Han Solo. (accessory pack to make it look like a Blas-tech m3 heavy blaster pistol included)

How about a super slim all steel 9mm single stack striker fired 1903 Colt in stainless.

At least somebody make a DA Colt 1878 New Frontier or 1877 Lightning copy.

How about a new Pasadena Automag? (just for grins)

And why not an upscaled 10 shot BHP in .45 auto?

And why not a 6 shot unported 45acp snubby?
 
New Colt Series 70 stainless with lowered ejection port and magwell beveling. :D

Webley breaktop revolver replica made by S&W or Colt chambered in .45LC.
 
i got blasted for saying this over at tfl, but...

how about a steel framed glock? best thing is that rails won't break off, and with the glock21's fat grip, with metal, you can make it thinner.
 
how about...

a single action style pistol(blaclhawk, colt,etc...) with double action capabilities? strength of single action, speed of double action,,, drawback would be reloading...
 
Pretty much any gun with a straight-pull 1911ish trigger.

Yup. I was thinking of a Glock w/the same controls (no manual safeties), but with a 1911 style grip angle and trigger. Thin it up a little and that'd be a great CCW for me.

Something I don't mind beating up, but also something I'd like shooting.
 
USP .45 with a 1911 trigger (pull and reset) and a lower bore axis
 
Beretta 87 in 9x19

I agree.

Also:
1. A Kahr K-9 and MK9 with Titanium frames.

2. S&W Bodygaurd snubbie in Titanium (only the aluminum frame on this model for some reason)

3. An Airweight or Titanium 9mm snubbie by S&W.

4. A slim single stack Glock 26.
