The one gun I've always wanted!

Beautiful gun!

Thank you...that was a lucky find for sure.

The S&W Model 19 w/2.5" barrel. I've always wanted one and never acquired one over the years. Now they are way out of my price range, and it will probably never happen. I still dream of having one though!

Beautiful model 19. I love the older ones that are pinned and recessed cylinders (19-4 and older).
I just purchased a 19-3, 6 inch on Gunbroker for $655. That is $300 less than a new one! Great
condition! I wanted a shooter but now I feel a little guilty shooting it? The shorter barrel model
19s and 66s are more desirable and more exspensive. The deals are out there you just have to be
persistent.

Agreed. Either 2.5" Model 19 or a 2.5" Model 66. Both classic looking firearms, both on the drool list..

As is a 1927 Thompson, 16" barrel and hundred round drum….

Saw one of those in 25 acp for sale for $325. Grips were pretty worn though. 32 acp versions are also available for pretty cheap fwiw.

Isn't the next gun 'The gun you've always wanted'? My wife is getting tired of hearing that.

I missed out on the SVT-40 when they were still $1200. 5 years later they are somehow up to $3.5k-$4k.

Never going to happen for me.

Mauser Banner K98 with Deutsche Reichspost markings. One of the few times I went to a gun show with no money, I missed one of these for $250. Now they are worth at least 10X that.

Thanks, I have a savage 1907 in 32, it's 124 years old and runs like a champ.

I once thought as you. I now own several firearms I never thought I'd actually be able to own. Some I planned and saved for, some I traded for, others I sort of "lucked" into. It can happen to you too! Plus, a vintage S&W 19 with any barrel is a worthy goal.

Another vote for the Auto Ordnance .45 rifle.

I still want a CG-63.

owned a number of class III, but always wanted a 60...

Ruger, 77, tang safety, .264 Win mag 26-inch barrel.

I missed one for just under 5 after a lifetime of search due to the seller only dealing with O3FFL and mine had become trash for that purpose thanks to Mrs, Tampax and her hate groups. Panic efforts for other purchase arrangements soured when it was sold from sellers impatient to move it along.
I completely understand and exonerate them from any negative or ill will thoughts for that notwithstanding my unable to squelch disappointment..c'est la vie

I loved night fire exercises with the M60 and night vision. US ARMY 83-85

Yes they are.

I was very lucky to find this pair a few years ago - and I wasn't looking for SS - but now glad they are !
