Things you want that you just can't have
« on: October 13, 2010, 12:34:58 AM »
To start this thread off, I have to say a Beretta CX4 Storm carbine..... unfortunately, California is made of epic fail and won't trust me with a frakkin' pistol caliber weapon because it has a THUMBHOLE.  GRAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!

I can't be 25 years old. No amount of money, no bribes, no pills, no voodoo, no nothing will do that. Bill Gates can't do that.

It's infuriating.

Original production M712 Schnellfeuer, M93 Raffica, Sturmgewehr 44, Snayperskaya Vintovka Dragunova, Vintovka Snayperskaya Spetsialnaya. Oh and a Montana-class Battleship would be nice too.

A short barreled AR carbine.  I really wanna get an AR with the shortest barrel possible for interior shooting and also as a concealable SHTF rifle.  Something that I could conceivable put in a backpack or satchel.  I just really like the idea of having an SMG or SMG sized rifle for quick and concealed use.  But alas, the residents of Michigan are not to be trusted with such things.

Also, a Zat'ni'katel

A concealed weapons permit.

I can carry a concealed loaded gun around, but not a decent defensive knife.

I won't rub it in too much but I got one of these last year for a good price used and it is AWESOME.  I bought it right before our summer shoot and everyone loved it and shot really well with it.  I'm just saying...

I've got a long list of firearms that I cannot have, being in the UK.
I'd certainly have bought at least a FA Mac 10/11 of some kind by now otherwise.  =D

A Pelikan Niagara Falls LE fountain pen.  X-fine nib.
Oh, what the heck, while we're wish-listing, custom-ground to a very slight italic.
I think it retails for $400, and custom grinding is at least $60, plus logistical costs, like getting to fountain pen show to work with a nib grinder in person.

A trap gun and the chance to get good at shooting it.  Maybe someday, but it's going to be at least a year or two until I am physically able to do high volume trap shooting and probably a whole helluva lot longer until I can afford a trap gun, a case of shells every week, and range fees.   

A chance to play judo again.  My shoulder is screwed to the point where any martial arts are probably impossible and high-contact martial arts like judo, especially with the kind of brawny way-bigger-than-me guys who tend to get into judo would be exceptionally stupid.

The last ten years of my life back.  I spent ten years getting treated for the wrong illness, and lost countless money, opportunities, grades, reputation, normalcy, etc.

A wife.  :lol:

Put that on top of my list too.

In fact, I was actually going to be getting married 3 days from now.  But most of you know how that turned out.

To be 19 again, fresh out of school, money in my pocket, ready to travel the world.
A face that isn't broken. =(
Better social skills. =(
Concealed carry. =|
A few safes full of guns. Or heck, just A safe (and also to have qualified with rifles for my hunter's exam class) so I can buy atleast a couple of long guns. Looks like I won't be able to do so until summer, unless I can get the cash (probably expensive as hell) to get an examiner out there to sign the papers.

A wide range of explosives and a junk yard where I can use them to my heart's content.  =D

A small fleet of aircraft ranging from a Cardinal 177RG to an L-39 Albatros to a Gulfstream V (but someone else to fly that one), with a private airport capable of handling all of them, with hangar space.

A workshop, and tools to sufficiently fill it.

A shooting range with distances and berms from 1-1500m, with no limits as to what calibers or projectiles I can shoot, from what position, nor how fast.

A small "shoot town" for airsoft and paintball matches.

A decent plot of land where four-wheelers are required during warmer months and snowmobiles in the colder ones.  Varied terrain a plus, a stream or small river even moreso, and a pond or lake would be fantastic.  Open land, forest, a few hills, maybe even a mountain would be perfect.

My list of guns and at least 10,000 rounds apiece, plus sufficient storage capability for it all.

My list of cars and motorcycles, and sufficient space to store them all.  Added bonus of ample room to keep them all in good repair.

My ultimate house.
