Ridiculous guns you want

Hell Yeah

I want Santa to bring me a Browning Quad

Why not extend the barrel to 16 inches and throw a stock on it? Now that would be something to grab my attention. Keep it around $700 and have it shoot 45 long colt, 45 acp, or .410. That would be an attractive piece to me.

In another topic, I posted that I was bidding on some used guns at a local auction house. My bids were low, and I used them mostly as placeholders so I could watch the action and if I did end up winning, well that would be the icing on the cake. My Blue Book of Gun Values showed up today to assist me in my future bidding adventures. I just looked up some of the guns in the auction in the book and a few already have a bid price above the 100% condition price in the book. I guess some people just want it more than others.

Do you guys/gals/others use something like this book before purchasing a used gun? Is there something better out there?

I use the price of recent sales on Gun Broker. When you are in an inflationary environment with a totalitarian political environment past prices don’t mean a thing.

Rossi already makes that gun. Circuit Judge. It’s literally a 16" barrel with a stock and that exact same cylinder/trigger/handguard.

I usually just roll with my gut, honestly. It’s not that hard to tell if something’s priced decently or not.

Earlier this year I ran across a stainless Security Six at the LGS they said they got in an estate sale. They were asking $470, it looked dirty, but mechanically solid. Went home, ran the serial, came to a 1978 model. Didn’t look up the prices, went back and bought it. Took it home and spent some time giving it a good cleaning and Flitzing, turned out to be a pretty mint piece and after looking around it seems most are going for $550-650.

Most of the “used” guns I buy are GunBroker specials. I’ll go on at a weird hour (like 2AM,) tune the listings to no-reserve auctions only, filter it to the ones ending soonest, and see what’s on there. Sometimes you find a good one that slips through the cracks, got a $2,250 Desert Eagle (stainless, ported barrel) for $1,725 a while back doing exactly that.

I want a Medusa revolver, but only if it actually works.

I want a BRAND NEW Marlin Model 60. While the rifle itself is perfectly reasonable, the CHANCE of getting a newly-manufactured one is probably zero, and so, wanting one is ridiculous.

An AA-12.

A big bore airgun.

And, a LifeCard.

I actually order one 28 years ago at a gun store, next day I drove by gun store and it was closed down and empty!
I hunted down the owner address and asked for my money back.He tried to tell me it was on order and it was still coming but I was PO that they never said they were closing shop the next day.
Needless to say I got my money. Purchased a stanless mini 14 from a freind for 400 and never looked back…until this thread.

Okay, maybe it’s not a “gun” per se, but…I don’t think anything has ever vaulted to the tippity top of my “I need it” list quicker than the two words “flamethrower drone.”

Ridiculous, but do NOT want: looks like it will explode at any moment…

Also stupid, and would sooner fire a .45acp in each hand than this:

That Revolver looks like a prop in a Robert Rodriguez film that you’d find attached to a Codpiece.



I have the pre-banned 9mm Calico (M-900) with a 50rd drum. I’ve had really good luck with reliability.

I wanna play space cowboy…

SOME people call me Maurice

Good place to start on a mod :slight_smile:

On a slightly more serious note, I wonder exactly how they plan to protect the shooter’s off hand and forearm on that revolver carbine. On the Judge Defender, there’s a guard in front of the cylinder, but I didn’t spy one on the carbine. I hear .357 fireballs are quite unpleasant on the skin.

I wonder how long all those 3d printed parts are supposed to last, because I know that I would be crankin’ that handle as fast as possible. And somebody will definitely adapt a drive motor to that puppy.
