What is your dream firearm you plan to purchase one day?
Mine is field used ww2 colt 1911.

Dream gun would be a 240B with unlimited belts of ammunition.
Reality would be maybe buy a custom long range bolt action from Alamo Precision or Horizon someday.

Easy- Dillon mini gun. And I don't want to dream of feeding it!

Maybe a high-end Les Baer 1911, I dunno. I'm pretty sure there's nicer stuff than that out there.
Actually, I think I'd have TDK build me something on a Model 70 CRF action using nicely figured English walnut for a classic stock bearing understated 26 lpi checkering. Something like a .280 AI (or maybe something classic like .300 H&H, or .264 Win Mag, or even 6.5-06 AI) with a premium cut-rifled 24-inch heavy sporter barrel. Give me rust bluing and keep the barrel naked. Not too fancy, just beautifully executed.

Probably whatever I buy next.
Thinking about a Nosler chambered in 28 Nosler with very nice glass on top.
Or a Sako 85 in 7mm-08

I like the looks of the new Citori 725 feather. I'll own one by next season.

While I've always wanted my own M2HB, given the choice I think I'd pick a Westley-Richards .577 double.

Original Newton Rifle in 256 Newton caliber with the double-set triggers.
My Uncle had one that my cousin has now. No idea if he's ever even taken it out of the safe since his Dad passed.

Any of JM Browning's prototypes that never made it to production.

Re: Dream firearm - 03/17/16 01:57 AM
I'd take a custom 6.5 creedmoor with a camo stock with vertical grip, nice scope, aftermarket trigger, fluted match stainless barrel, and silencer. Nothing crazy, but nicer than anything I've got by a mile.
Would also love a Barrett 82A1, Colt Gold Cup 1911, and a few others.
A legit USMC 1903a1 with Unertl 8x scope

I've always wanted a nice, English side by side shotgun like a Purdy or Holland.
They are just beautiful works of art and usually increase in value over the years.

Re: Dream firearm - 03/17/16 03:16 AM
MP38 or 40. Or a MG34
It changes a lot but lately I've at least wanted to see an arsenal double barreled 1911 hard chromed and done up by Wilson combat with all the options.

I'm pretty simple. Give me a bad to the bone Springfield M1A.

Re: Dream firearm - 03/17/16 03:16 PM
A Curtis Custom rifle that is in the works!
- Axiom short action
- Muller Works heavy varmint barrel with 8 flutes and finished at 26"
- chambered in 6mm SLR
- gunsmithing by Curtis Customs
- Manners T6A or T4A bedded by Curtis Customs
- Vortex Razor II 4.7-27x56
- Seekins rings but considering Spuhr
- Cerakote color dependent on stock
- Jewell trigger
This rifle will be a work of art and a much better shooter than I am.

Ma Duece, or some sort of 50 Cal, or a really nice double rifle in any caliber.

Yup.
Gotta agree! I'd love to have this one...
But now that I'm gonna be a paw-paw to my daughters son, August this year, my desire has changed. My next gun will be the .22 CZ 455 Trainer and then a nice .22 Henry for him...and I'll have to buy another one for my granddaughter. Can't wait to get them both out to shoot!!!

Re: Dream firearm - 03/19/16 07:55 PM
I already own 3 dream guns so far. Sako 85, Blackheart AR and HK45C
But then their is historical dreaming which would be the
MG42
pre ww1 luger
pre ww1 colt 1911
But my absolute 100% dream rifle/s would be the actual Garand and/or thompson my grandfathered carried in Germany during ww2. That would really be a dream come true and the most cherished guns on earth to me if they still exist and they might.
FN SCAR
Blaser R8 with multiple barrels
Beretta 687 EELL
Sig Sauer P226 TACOPS
For sure: Weatherby Mark V in 300 Win

I'm a practical guy. Guess I don't have any dream guns. Really, anything that shoots straight and goes bang every time is a dream gun to me. Sorry, kinda boring answer. With that said, I sure wouldn't mind having an original A5 out in a duck blind sometime.
