Stupid Guns You Want to Own- Panic Edition

[NEPAKevin]

I keep forgetting to reply to this.

The knife is a Boker Arbolito Esculta. It was actually $140, bought from Boker's EBay page as a sales sample, sans box. I originally bought it to do some marketing photos for one of my books, and thought I would flip it, but kept it because it's cool looking. It had a really uneven grind, which which I fixed with a Lansky sharpener, and now I really like it.

This thread made me go ahead and order the stag GP100 grip panels I've been thinking about buying for over a year.

Last year, well before to the coof craziness, I picked up a blued 5" GP100MC in 10mm and a bunch of accessories from a guy I shoot with who decided he wanted something else... and kind of forgot about it. Thanks for reminding me.

There’s a Walther PP in .32 that’s calling my name too. I think it’s something about the level of finish that makes it jump out in a case full of SCCYs and such. It would probably be really nice to shoot...

I would be interested in shooting a PP. Not so much a PPK.

That would be a pretty sweet rifle.

I have been having irrational urges to buy an 1860 Army clone.

I had one of those in the early 80s, bought as a police trade-in while stationed in Germany. It was a Manurhin-manufactured version. It was accurate and reliable and sliced your hand like a PPK. It actually liked the old Hornady 90-grain swaged LSWC. I sold it and the Manurhin P1 I had bought before I rotated back to the States.

So someone bought the PP before I could cave, but now in the case is a S&W 15-7 with one of those optics rails that mounts where the rear sight was. I just happen to still have the Deltapoint Pro that doesn’t fit my M&P Pro series CORE 1.0 lying around...

It could be a Postmodern Combat Revolver and I could just run wadcutters through it.

Does a mag fed semi .308 count?

I have 556 and a Garand and have sold off M1a and PTR but keep finding myself looking at them.

I would like that or a .44 Remington cap and ball revolver.
That will be a retirement project one day hopefully for me.
