Hmmm, I’m either covetless, or there are guns I have no awareness of, or I have the best gun on the market for me. Because no gun out there holds a mystical allure for me.

I have to get into the dream world to specify a gun of desire:
1. The ‘something’, that heritage, that connection with the past and previous generations who have handled it that old guns like my 120+ yo BSAs have
2. The ergonomics and looks of my Mk4is
3. The stability in hold of my Pulsar
4. The accuracy and precision of the Mk4is and Pulsar
5. A lightness that makes carrying it unnoticeable, although general wisdom suggests this will adversely affect accuracy and precision
6. A shot count that means I don’t need to refill during a session (someone will say “springer”!)

I’ve often thought of a Wildcat, but tellingly, despite many opportunities, I’ve always pulled away from buying one.
