What is your Holy Grail of Handguns?

[M Spiritridge]

Glock 19 rtf2 with gill serrations. Anyone want to sell me one?

 

[TwinStick]

John Dillinger's wooden gun he used to break out of the Crown Point prison.

If you want to pay the $19k that it sold for, I'll carve you one for half that.

 

[TwinStick]

Any pistol used by Doc Holliday, Wyatt Earp, Jesse James, Billy the Kid, John Dillinger, Teddy Roosevelt, George Washington or any other famous or infamous historical US American.

Colt Python BSS 2" NIB with all papers.........

Pretty !$%#$^ sweet....
I'm a 1911 guy myself...

I am as well, a 1911 of mine.........(the BSS Python 2" is still just a wet dream)

 

[mpmax]

Broom-handle Mauser, with shoulder stock, ivory gripped, and yes.....engraved.

I have a 4 inch Python in the older Royal Blue, but would the BSS is awesome! Always wanted one, never had the cash when one was for sale though! That is really pretty!

Damb, that's just wrong!! I have two Pythons, neither are this perty, but I don't know if this one is the holy grail. But it is close. I still gotta think about this one.

Something I may actually get to own someday; A Wilson Combat Tactical Supergrade. Blue slide over a stainless frame...just beautiful.

Something I would like to own, hard to justify the cost; A Barrett M82A1 with the right glass on top. Lots of money, but lots of gun.

Something I would like to own, can't really justify the cost let alone find one I could buy; An MP5SD. I just think they are seriously cool..... Other problem there is I live in WA state.....

But a WWII Nazi proof marked gun in good condition would be my dream gun.

Why? Just curious....

The MP5SD is ok in WA, minus the SBR and full auto sear if it is a transferable!!!! I saw one for sale on subguns for around $28,000, thats alot of bread!, our friends in OR/ID can have them though. A friend back east in NH is a C3/SOT Dealer. he let me shoot his "Post" Sample Mp5SD ( not transferable) , it really rocked and was quiet, I liked it alot!

...yeah, but without the short barrel and rattle switch, what fun are they...??...

 

[redbos99]

TPM Outfitters takes H&K SP89's and HK94's and can have an internal suppressor that measures right out to 16.1 inches, no full auto pack/sear in WA, you are right!

 

[Diamondback]

OK, I'm gonna kick my prior answer back to #2. Number ONE would be the exact sidearm that Uncle Frank had when he stormed Mauthausen... he's kind of "the family war hero."

 

[GED]

An Ulm-proofed pre-1968 PPK or PPK-L in .22LR w/box, manual, tool, target, extra mag., and everything in mint condition for under 2 grand.

Is this really asking for too much?

 

[Dapapadon]

Why? Just curious....

Simple question, hard to answer. I really like the design. And the Nazi proof would mean it's a true WWII gun. I'll cheap out and buy a shooter grade gun. Too many dollar signs between a shooter and what I really like makes it my Holy Grail I guess. Yeah I know I'm cheap.

 

[FarmerTed1971]

Fair enough.

 

[replicant]

Just one? I'm a 1911 guy too and I love Les Baer 1911's, then there is the W. German Sig P226 and P228....but if I can only pick one "holy grail" of handguns it has to be a Colt Python...
