I have a totally irrational want for a CZ527 carbine in 7.62x39
....but I want it to have an old school adjustable rear sight that is graduated from 100-500 meters.
I want a wheellock, a Ferguson breech loader, and a Light Infantry Officer's Fusee. Moving on into the next century, start with a Springfield Model 1803 Rifle, and a Hall Breechloading Carbine, and, of course, a Gatling Gun. And maybe a Mitralleuse, just to be different.
For starters.

A Luger in nice shape but without a ton of superfluous collector value. The problem is it seems like you need a PhD in Lugers to find the right one without getting ripped off. Also, when it breaks...
Same goes for a Webley.
After some more thinking I would add:
-M40A1 Clone.
-Winchester Model 70 in 30-06 with 8x Unertl Scope (ala Hathcock).
-Mark 18 Clone
-Mk 22 Hush Puppy Clone
-Beretta with KAC Clip On
-High Standard HD Military OSS clone
-MEUSOC 1911 clone by Dave Berryhill (The older style MEUSOC with the Clark grip safety and ring style hammer).
-Sig M11
-STI 5.0 Tactical Bomar adjustable sights, non-full length dustcover. (These were used breifly by SOF and then released to civilian market and sold on Gun Broker. Incredibly rare thing.)
-Glock 22 RTF with Gills with 6 second mount, T1, and x300, Tan G22 mags(Commonly refered to as a CAG clone in it's various configurations).
-Glock 19M
-Glock
-Mk23
-Mk25
There are more I'm sure. I'm pretty drawn to handguns with US military history, and few rifles with the same.

I can’t keep from wanting a heavy .35 Whelen 16” carbine, either a Shuff’s Mini-G with full 8-round en-bloc capability, or a Yugoslav M76 reworked into the Whelen, feeding from CSS Vepr 30-06 magazines.

Just a few from my "I want it because I want it, practicality be damned"
- H&K MP5/10 SD
- KAC LMG
- Full Stoner 63 kit (Bren, carbine, belt setups and all the accessories)
- CZ Škorpion vz. 61
- Lemat Revolver
- Remington 81 Special Police (.35 Rem with 15rd Magazine)
- Ultimax 100
- American 180
- Johnson M1941
- Carl Gustaf m/45 or S&W M76
And that's just a few. If I hit the Powerball, my collection would probably look like something between a playlist from Forgotten Weapons and Reed Knight's museum's back room. I'd also like to have an example of a service rifle/pistol from every conflict from the Revolution to Present Day for a display in my office one day but that's on down the road.

@cor_man257 and @ragnar_d,
You guys are just listing collectible arms that make complete rational sense to purchase for historic, C&R or general collectible purchase.
