Me, too! Wish they'd start making them again.
OK. A handheld 105mm.I think guys are still missing the point... a "holy grail" isn't something you can just buy with money- it's something of legend, that's unobtainable or extremely difficult to obtain.
You know they are available now from, IIRC, two different makers. But if you like to shoot things, go for the .357, or .44 mag versions? The recoils and terrible ergonomics would make that thing a one shot wonder like the Mars .45! Quote " No one who shot it would do so again!" Paraphrasing?Steve McQueen's 44/40 Randall Special (Mare's Leg) in his "Dead or Alive" TV show.
Really liked the look of his holster belt when filled up with 45-70 ammo
Look up the M-67, IIRC! It was/is an American Army 90 mm Recoilless rifle that shot several different types of ammo, but the new manufacture Korean HE-Frag round at about 10 pounds at 850 FPS sounds like the best you will ever find at blowing things up!OK. A handheld 105mm.
Someone correct me if I am wrong but I believe I read once (like 30 years ago) the Colt always seen on JWs hip was his own personal gun and was a 38-40 Mod 73. If you watch his movies, particularly after they went 'color' you can see the ivory grips getting darker over the years.John Wayne's Colt. Don't care which one...
I remember reading an article, I think in the American Rifleman about that gun. JW used other Peacemakers, too, but that one would have to be top of the list.Someone correct me if I am wrong but I believe I read once (like 30 years ago) the Colt always seen on JWs hip was his own personal gun and was a 38-40 Mod 73.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the Smith & Wesson "Registered Magnums" from the late 1930's.
