Bring back the stainless M6 survival rifle, please.

Agreed....I'd be satisfied with a bolt-action AR-7 rifle in .22Mag or .22Hornet....the AR-7 never worked well as a semi-auto, so a super-compact bolt gun would really help the design.

I'd like a single-stack concealable pistol in 5.7X28, with 1903 Colt styling.

How about just reviving the 1903 Colt, but offering it in some CC-friendly DuraCoated stainless, with a barrel and recoil spring kit to convert it to .25NAA for the .32ACP version and .32NAA for the .380?

Because that would be like comparing a Vespa to a Kawasaki Ninja.....a 5.7x28 in a slim pocket pistol would be a lot of punch in a small package. Kinda like the Russian 5.45x18 "vest puncher"....

Random thought right before falling asleep last night. M1 Carbine in .38 Super. Not quite a .357 but close. And then you could have a 1911 in .38 to go along with it.

Yep. I picture a very attractive little pistol.

Small-frame 5-shot top-break alloy frame snubbie in 9mm (moon clips) with the cylinder shortened to accommodate the 9mm.

a 7 shot in titanium would be nifty.

a 223 carbine that could be converted to 22lr without a losable chamber adapter.

a m6 style action survival rifle chambered in 22lr over 6.5 grendel with indestructable optics.

While we're fantasizing....

I'd like to see BATFE screw off and die, and all the ridiculous taxes, stamps and restrictions go the way of the dinosaur.

After that, I'd like to see a survival revolver with a stock that can be attached, as well as a screw on barrel extension to make it have a longer barrel. Since we're dreaming and all that.

Another want:
16" Lever gun in .45 ACP.

In cowboy action shooting they developed the 45 Cowboy Special. The idea was to shorten the 45 Colt round to ACP length, and the reduced capacity would make for better light loads and the empties will eject from the SA revolvers easier. In that game it makes life more harmonious if you shoot the same round in the rifle and handgun, so this guy makes carriers to get regular 45 Colt lever actions to feed the short round too. I don't know if the part is drop in or if some fiddling is required, but it sure would hold enough rounds to violate the 10 round magazine limit!

Ruger LCR with a 3-4" barrel, adjustable sights, and chambered in 22lr. Maybe with 7-9 shots...

If anyone agrees with me, comment on this facebook thread at Kel-tec. Maybe we can get a fire under their ass:

My lifelong dream is to own a modern replica of an old fashioned, hand-cranked Gatlin Gun that is chambered for the twelve gauge, three and one half inch magnum turkey load, and a set of ten or so twenty five round stick magazines for it. This way it would theoretically be able to fire pretty much any twelve gauge shell you could find.

MillCreek · « **Reply #114 on:** January 22, 2011, 10:10:37 AM »

^^^^ With dreams like that, you'll fit in just fine here. Welcome.

BlueStarLizzard · « **Reply #115 on:** January 22, 2011, 01:13:27 PM »

I was under the impression that gaitling guns are reletivly easy to make.

Of course, easy to make and easy to legally own are to very diffrent things...

Hand-cranked Gatling guns are legal, afaik.

Then we need to outlaw those high-capacity assault hands.

If it was capable of SA fire I think I would buy one. I liked the ultralight S&W from a few years back but the price was pretty steep for a 22.

Mine's a repeater with a 14(LR)-round tube mag under the barrel.

If it ejects properly, you're lucky if the next round pops into the carrier properly. If that happens, you're lucky if it makes the trip to the chamber, and doesn't jam against the back of the barrel when you try to send it home.

My dad could work it pretty good when he was teaching me to shoot. Now that it's mine, I can't figure out the magic touch.

Must have been one of the rich kids to have the Ithaca 49 repeater.

AJ Dual · « **Reply #120 on:** January 22, 2011, 07:23:27 PM »

I want a .22 with the ergonomics of the Whitney Wolverine, but simpler construction, with higher quality than the original, or the plastic one from Olympic Arms.

I never understood the obsession with SA fire in a DA revolver. Why not just buy a SA revolver in the first place.

Yes, I shoot almost exclusively DA with my DA revolvers.

Agreed....not to mention that the LCR trigger is a lot smoother than any DA .22lr trigger, and I would love to have one...
