Fun Thread: Wish List Pistols

[Chevusa]

Thought this would be fun.
Here's the rules:
1) List up to 3 pistols you have on your radar that you'd like to get. If you only have 1 or 2 that is fine.
2) Must include a picture for each one
3) Must be something actually legal for you to buy
4) Must be reasonably affordable (aka something you would/could actually buy).

 

[Chevusa]

Here's mine
1) H&K USP preferably in .45ACP

2) Sig P229 Legion in .357 or .40

3) Springfield RO Elite Operator 10mm

 

[dsdmmat]

SP5 Probably the only pistol I want, of course I would like the sub machine gun version MP5 if I can find one that I don’t have to trader for 48 pounds of varget.

 

[Saltwater60]

Sti Stuccatto C2 with optics in 9mm for me and my boy to shoot together. I also like the Dan Wesson dwx compact and I’m not sure what one I would chose.

Sit 365 xl slide with regular compact grip module.

Colt 1911 delta elite in 10mm

I have a friend that has one that probably hasn't left the safe in 20 years.

Hard to get him to sell though, being a millionaire and all.....

 

[Phauxtoe]

Smith Model 41
22L


CZ TACTICAL Orange


Smith M&P R8
8 Shot .357 Mag

 

[Jem45472]

Ruger match champion. I've always liked this. I really don't have a use for it, so will probably never get it, unless I have some disposable income.



I bought the other one at the top of my list last year. Sig p229 "talo" edition stainless.
Been upgraded with ss guide rod, legion sights, and greyguns dual adjustable flat trigger.

I couldn’t decide lol

I've wanted a calico M950 for a long time.

Almost bought one that was in stock at the LGS back around 2000 or so (the carbine version, that was before I had a permit), kinda wish I did.

I know they're problematic and impractical, want one anyway.

 

[Podmonkey]

I'm gonna do four since I can't decide which of the following to leave off:


SIG P320 X-Compact RXP (this one on deck for next gun purchase)


Wilson Combat Brigadier Tactical, Vertec grip type


New Colt Python, assuming all issues are fixed and that it's still available now that CZ bought Colt


SIG P220 Legion 10mm.

I'm lucky. I've actually acquired all of the handguns that I wanted. I don't feel like I'm missing anything now.
My most recent purchases were three Ruger single actions - a Single Six & a pair of Blackhawks.
For the Blackhawk, I couldn't decide if I wanted a .45 caliber or a .357, so I bought one of each.

Group photos:





My absolute grail gun though, was a Smith & Wesson Model 17-6 with a 4" barrel - it's a K-frame .22LR revolver with a full-lug barrel. They only made the 17-6 for around roughly 4 years from 1990-1994 and had 3 different barrel lengths. To find any for sale was almost impossible, especially a 4" barrel. I chased this gun literally for years before I was able to get my hands on one. There were some that were priced out of my reach, and a couple others that I missed by "this much".

This is my baby:

All great responses so far. I love seeing everyones different perspectives. I'm sure some of your guns will end up on my list one day too. Very fun to see all of your picks so far.

And she’s a beauty too ! My 17-6 is a rare ish 5”

 

[S&W Fan]

S&W model 686+ with 3” barrel and unfluted cylinder

I just bought a Ruger 57. Luckily I actually had ammo for it because my daughter didn’t clean me completely out in 2015. I have about 1500 cases to reload as well. Nice fun pistol with no recoil.

My LGS has one...but it’s the lack of ammo that keeps me from buying. I can’t justify adding a new caliber right now.

I’ve never heard of a 5” Model 17-6. The book doesn’t mention it (but we know how that goes with S&W ).
Is there any chance that it was a longer barrel that was cut down or was it maybe a special order?
I’m intrigued.

 

[pshift]

Just this one. Ruger PC Charger

 

[GOPerfect]

As far as pistols are concerned, I think I have all that i need and want. I have been able to acquire all that I really want.

There are two that I am a bit interested in:

CZ Scorpion EVO 3 S1 Pistol - CZ-USA

Discontinued 2023. A semi-auto pistol version of the famous Scorpion EVO 3 A1, this Scorpion is awesome on the range and makes a great home defense firearm.

cz-usa.com

VP9SK - HK USA

The eagerly anticipated subcompact model of the acclaimed Heckler & Koch VP Series handgun, VP9SK (in 9 mm) has all of the sought-after characteristics of larger frame VP pistols but in a more concealable design.

hk-usa.com

I have two VP9's right now, I think I may pick up the mini version, only one though.

The CZ Scorpion, I was on the fence for too long, now my dealer is out.
