    I’d say either a model 29classic dx or a nighthawk thunder ranch in 45. Always loved the smoked nitride on the thunder ranch and the classic dx they only made for a year or two and they were guaranteed accuracy at 50yards.

    I’d love one of the MARSOC Colt m45 railed 1911’s that were military issued, and then Colt bought them back and re-sold on the civilian market…pretty rare to find modern military firearms that were actually used in modern combat, then sold to civilians. I think some of the Remington M-24’s were also deemed surplus and resold to civilians.

    The m24s fetch a pretty penny. I’ve seen a few sold. I think they were going between the 4-6k range.

    Smith & Wesson pre-lock 34, 60 & 63. Mint in boxes.
    And a Model 29 “Dirty Harry” in the wood presentation case.
    And a John Wayne Winchester and…….
    I’ve seen a few nice examples of a model 29 in presentation cases but they go for around 2k if not more. I managed to find a nice 29 lew Horton classic hunter, original box and all the accessories with it.

    Wilson Combat Super Elite 1911, even though I don’t shoot 45ACP anymore, it’s still my dream gun. Second on the list would be the HK MK23.

    Yes, I’ve spotted a few that were $2500 but finding one at a good price is half the fun or else I would just buy off Gunbroker.
    It’s not something I really hafta have.

    I have already had a few of the guns I dreamed about for many years. One was a Coonan B, one was a Franchi SPAS-12, and another was a Desert Eagle .50AE. I would really like to have a Thompson M1A1 submachinegun and a M1918 BAR. Semi-autos of these would suffice. I would also like to get a cherry stainless steel Colt Delta Elite 10mm with original paperwork, case, and accessories.

    yes, that would be sweet to find a B.A.R.... still made, in semiauto
