Ideas for new firearms....

edited May 2002 in General Discussion
I was pondering some ideas for firearms I'd like to have that were never produced. Just thought I'd make a post so we could share ideas.

I'd like to have a reproduction of the Webley-Fosbery Semi-Automatic revolver in a 9-shot .32h&r Magnum version.

A Thompson M1 Submachinegun in its experimental .45remington-thompson cartridge.

A Ruger Mini-14 that was setup just like a miniature M1 Garand, using clips, but firing the .223rem.

The Ruger Lever action rifle in the .480ruger, also their Deerfield carbine in a .480ruger.

Colt to reproduce their 1903 Pocket Hammerless using modern metals and mfg technics in a 9mm or .380acp.

A quality reproduction of the Winchester 1897 Trench Shotgun with reproduction long bayonet.

A reproduction of the German Luger in a .40s&w and also a compact model.

For all the firearms restrictions laws to be lifted and all the really cool old preban guns to be made once again, and then some.

A company that made safe low pressure reproductions of obsolete ammo at affordable prices so you could enjoy that old relic at the range.

A company to make those old .25acp browning clones with logos like you get at your office on pens and stuff.

A Desert Eagle carbine.

A company like numrich that actually remanufactured replacement parts, and had them in stock when you called.

An accurized National Match version of the SKS, with a quality match barrel, available in 5.45x39 and 7.62x39. But keeping the original military appearance with the bayonet and stuff.

The handgun that was on the animated movie, Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within, you know the one. That was a very nice looking piece for a computer animated one.

For Springfield Armory to reproduce all makes of the US 1903 Rifle, and the 1917, and the M1 Carbine, and M1 Garands.







I just wish I had a dollar for every gun I wanted, then I'd be a rich man.

    just kidding.

    How about a Ruger PC Carbine in a 10mm.

    A lever action Marlin model 39 in a .25acp and .32acp.

    A liver aciotn Marlin or Winchester in a .40s&w.

    For Browning to make the Lightning BLR in a .223rem again.

    A marlin 597 or ruger 10/22 in the .25acp.

    The Springfield Armory M6 Scout to be available in .22wmr and .17hmr.

    The Colt Defender in 9mm and .40s&w.

    Ruger Vaqueo in 9mm so it would be very cheap to shoot.

    Ruger to make the Bearcat with brass trigger guard again.

    Sig to put weaver rail dust guards on their 226 so you could put an M3 tac-light on it.

    HK to start making the VP70's again, but with the magazine release behind the trigger instead of the european style, and also have the atachable stock that allowed it to be select fire. But not just have 3rd burst. And also have a model with a compensator, and make extended hi-cap magazines. Make it available in 9mm and .40s&w.

    I'd settle for Ruger to make the PC carbine in .357 Sig. Oh yeah, and for Glock and SIG to have a price war with Jennings so I could buy 'em for a hundred bucks.

    I would be happy if they just made a Browing Hi-Power like they used to and sold them for about $400.00 OTO

    A reproduction of the M1 carbine in the .30kurz.

    Reproductions of those really cool looking older target scopes with the springs on the outside. Those looked so cool.

    An NEF Target Model CR-3855, but in a 577 Snider.

    A pump action shotgun sized and styled .50BMG

    An M1A chambered in .303british or 6.5x55swedish

    Reproduction Krag Rifles and Carbine made by springfield armory.

    An AR15 or M16 chambered in the experimental 6mm SAW cartridge.

    Reproduction A1 style AR-15's with the triangular handguards.

    I would love to see the Jennings line made with quality craftsmanship and FORGED METALS !!

    I would like to see taurus or smith & wesson make a 5 shot ultra-light revolver in a 9mm. About the size of the 85model taurus.
    In a rifle I would love for them to turn a 6mm rem. into a 6mm wsm. Just make the case a little shorter and fatter. That would be a great varmint gun. That I would have to have in the winchester coyote.

    Oooh, just though up another one. I want a selection of Ruger 22/45's but all chambered in 25acp, all with either optima or aimpoint scopes, some suppressed, some selective fire.

    That would be sweet....

    Hey darkstare, you know you can get a M1A or an DSA FAL in 7mm-08. You will probably have to custom order it, but I know for a fact you can get them. I bet you could probably have an AR-10 (the .308 of AR's) converted to 7mm-08, with the simple exchange of uppers.

    Oh yeah, also a Winchester 1895 in 7.62x54R and a Remington 700 in 6.5x55.

    Lee, I did not know that about the 7mm-08. Thanks.
