Oh, I hate these threads........... it reminds me I live in the "wrong" country and really shouldn't have had the most expensive things ever....... kids!!

Colt Bisley, 4 3/4", in .38-40.
Marlin 1894, Delux Takedown, in .38-40.
Sharps 1874 Creedmoor in .45-110.
Browning Hi-Power.
HK53.
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

I agree with Sim G - I'm geographically mis- **** placed.

Erm, that's tricky, froggy - there's so many.

5 "I want one" s off the top of my head

MLE carbine .303
M1 Garand .30-06
L1A1 7.62x51mm
Wheel lock pistol - I can dream
And I guess I have to give in and go "modern" - probably some sexy looking bullpup self-loader in .338 or something :shakeshout:

Volcanic pistol
Forgot about those ones ...
A P220 would also be on my list beyond 5 guns ...

What are the MLE carbine .303 and INCH Actioned 7mm please ?

Chuck ... you make me laugh ! Since you go to the Sates, have you been to that Kentucky MG show ? Closer to home I saw on a French speaking forum some pics of a Swiss guy who shoots his legally owned MG34.

More details on the INCH here http://www.full-bore.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=45&t=607 I would chamber it with a .284" (7mm) cartridge.

The volcanic... Well any underlever pistol has to be interesting surely?
