A Ma Deuce in the back of an old Toyota would be cool, too.

Not another dime.
My "stupid guns" list is rather extensive. A few highlights:
- A Remington 8/81 in .35 Remington with the Peace Officer Equipment Co. magazine setup and a couple extra 15 round magazines.
- All the .32s. From an original Škorpion vz. 61 to Colt 1903s to the Airlite S&W J-Frames.
- A 12.5" .338 Federal AR Pistol/SBR for some reason known only to the gods. I'm going to blame my love for oddball calibers and large frame ARs.
- @Revolver Rob beat me to the De Lisle, but slightly modernized one of those.
- A .45 Colt pump action carbine (I think the Taurus Thunderbolt was one of the only ones done in .45 Colt, all the others were .44-40 or similar)
- I still want to have an example of every service rifle/pistol from every major US war from Lexington to Afghanistan.
I will say, the more I mess with guns, the older the guns I like are. I came into the world with plastic handguns and ARs, now I'm going towards lever guns, shotguns and revolvers. It keeps this up I'm going to be hunting for Trapdoor Springfields and 1858 Remingtons.

Ruger #1 Mannlicher in 257 Roberts.
This rifle has always fascinated me.
A friend has a Chapuis with 9,3x74mm and 20ga barrel sets, then I found that Searcy would make shotgun barrels for his rifles. So due to all these bad influences I want a .500 Nitro double with an extra set of 12ga barrels. It would cost more than a new truck...
Beretta 70-S .22. Should of picked up the 71 and cut the fake can off years ago, now like everything else the price is skyrocketed. With the rising cost of ammo rimfire maybe the only thing I can afford to shoot in the future.
Not on my list, but it's definitely in the spirit of the thread. I assume it's a leaked pre-release announcement photo and not a photoshop.
Add in a Norwegian M1914 and Madsen M47 rifle to my irrational want and desire list.

In that Kel-Tec has trademarked "P50", I think it's reasonable to assume that this isn't just photoshop bullshit.
