...you wanted: antique or newly made, black powder or nitro: costs, legality, cabinet space, wife's complaints, etc. don't matter: what one do you want? Why?

The revolvers used by British officers Gonville and Chard at Rourke's Drift in 1879. With papers that prove their provenance. That would be a very lucrative present indeed....Seriously, a nice old Webley or Tranter revolver boxed with all the kit. Have a Merry Christmas, Jim.
An original Baker rifle
Hi Jim,
Dream Gun would be a boxed .45 Luger one of very few made for the US Army to trial but lost out to the Colt,
Black powder Dream Gun would be either a Dragoon Colt or Navy Colt both cap and ball,
Almost as big as me, but such a satisfying KaBoom!
hi jim ,seasons greetings all,i would like a flintlock 7 barrel volley gun by henry nock made for the british navy for clearing sharpshooters from the rigging[as used by sergeant harper in the sharpe series]and i would want to shoot it! 7 x .50cal all at once would be interesting..cheers ..greasemonkey
The Mauser pistol carried by Winston Churchill in the Sudan and his .45 Thompson, presented to him in WW2, Sheer bliss, when men were men!!! Not ruled by this shower of absolute tossers.
I'd like a pair of nice modern beaumont adams repros, preferably reproduced by purdey or similar, in a nice leather and wood case with all the accessories.
