this is another Talo Ruger I would like.
GP100 with 3" barrel, gold bead front sight
I don't know if it qualifies for a fantasy firearm, but I'm kicking myself for not buying it when I saw it at OGC a couple years ago.

While I usually prefer a blue finish the revolver looks really nice in that black finish (whatever it is). It appears to be more satin than flat.

I consider a fantasy firearm to be one I would like to own one day. Even if it is out of my price range.

Just watched a Pristine WWI Vickers 303 cal water cooled MG go out the door of Small gun store into back seat of pick up truck wrapped in a blanket.

Complete set up cost owner $19,ooo at estate sale.

He has Several Full Auto MGs

I am on my way to getting at LEAST 2 suppressors and 1 full auto something.

Wife and I LOVE Texas.

Lots of people willing to help me set up my range after we close on property.

Texans we have met are Confident and Self Reliant, Can Do Anything folks.

It's cheaper to use a home equity line of credit. If I lose my house I'm blaming you!!!  :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

The finish looks very nice. I would like to see one in person. Just to check that the finish can protect the gun from drool of course.  :geekdanc: :geekdanc: :geekdanc:

I love Gary Reeder Customs but a simple .22 auto can be just as much a fantasy for some.

I like the way the rails and iron sights coexist. I think Ruger is listening to customers again. As long as they continue to innovate they will continue to own the .22 auto pistol market. Same as they own the .22 auto rifle market with the 10/22. The next innovations should be barrels and triggers that are easier to update like with the 10/22.

Whenever you feel like shooting .454 Casull I still have a few factory rounds left that I can't fire due to my arthritis. LMK, I'll either give you the rounds and remaining spent brass or you can fire them out of my Super Redhawk. Either way you can have the rest of the box of ammo. It is too much for me.

PTR-91  - A U.S. made clone of the H&K 91 chambered in .308

I contemplated between buying this firearm and building an FN FAL and chose the later because it involved reconditioning and assembly of parts.  ;D  The other deciding factor was the PTR-91 weird recoil pulse caused by the movement of a massive bolt assembly. Still, I love the looks of the PTR-91 and it is still on my shortlist.  I saw someone shooting one at the range last week and fell in love with it all over again. Does anybody here on the forum have one?
