Re: What's the gun you have longed over?
Need to have = the new Ruger 22/45 lite. After that my collection will be complete but doesn't mean that a couple others don't occasionally catch my eye.
Wouldn't mind having = a M1 Carbine, maybe a Rem. R25 in .260 or a BLR in .260.

You definitely "need" to have an M1 Carbine! They're like a .30-30 lever: requirement for at least one in your collectionL_Kilkenny wrote:Need to have = the new Ruger 22/45 lite. After that my collection will be complete but doesn't mean that a couple others don't occasionally catch my eye.

That's the Rifle I want too - or a reasonable facsimile.junkbug wrote:1895 Winchester Russian contract Musket 7.62X54r
This is a Lever gun forum after all.
I want to build/buy a Stainless 1911 CCO.
Other than that... I can't think of anything else right now.

1874 Shilo Sharps Quigley in 45-70. I know not the 45-120 used in the movie but i already have a BP rifle in 45-70 so it would make ammo easier.

I always thought a Rigby Ballard with a Malcolm scope would be nice!:) I'd even settle for one without the scope if I had too!

Re: What's the gun you have longed over?
Sweet, it's easy to see why.
I could settle fro a Uberti low wall deluxe pistol grip in a 45 Colt. I just thought that one up. It didn't take to long to be unsatisfied.

Greetings
A levergun in 414 Supermag ! Why the Supermag cartriges were passed over beats me.
Some one will write the 405 Win or 40-65 will do all the 41 SM can.. But I have a 414 SM Dan Wesson and it will be great one day to have a 336 in that caliber.

I suppose #1 would have to be a Stevens 44 1/2 that was turned into a full competition schuetzen by H.M.Pope and of course with a Pope made barrel's in 28-30 and 32-40.
Also want two more Parkers , both damascus , both GH grade or better in 8 gauge and 10 gauge .

Mighty nice single shots there.

Re: What's the gun you have longed over?
Mine is a Sharps - Probably in 45-70 just for the convenience factor. I have many others as well, such as a Springfield Socom M1A, an M1 carbine, and a nice Colt SAA in .45 Colt. I wouldn't mind having a nice Ruger worked over by Hamilton Bowen, either, and come to think of it, I'd love a Marlin 1895 done by Wild West Guns as well. See, I have too many to pick just one I guess.
