George Washington didn't use a rifle during the Revolutionary War....

Pistol...Give me Wild Bill Hickocks .36 caliber percussion Colts...I'd sell them and retire....

Muzzleloader...Give me "Sweet Betsy"....the rifle presented to Davy Crockett when he was in Congress and made a speech in Philly...

I'll think about the others...

One of those "well under 7 pound" hand made Austrian "Vierlings" that were made around 1960...chambered in 16x16x7x65Rx22 Win. mag... with a good scope in claw mounts and a couple Krieghoff insert bbls in 22lr and 22 Win. Mag... I'd like nice wood and a few other things too...

That will do it all for me and is only a "tiny bit" better than what i'm useing now, but what the heck we are dreaming here...

Some of these kind of overlap....

military style: I want a Napolean... Just to see the smoke.

old fashion: I want a real punt gun... boat... sink box and all. Or a 1 of 1000 Win '73.... just so I can be like James Stewart in the movie of the same name... the best low budget western ever made.

pistol: I'd like to have a genuine LeMotts. 41x16ga. I bet BigJ has one... and yes when you read this thats a request if you really do have one... you should charge admission.

muzzleloader: I'd like a real, genuine blue ridge squirrel rifle.... or an 8 bore fowling piece like some of those limeys use to shoot down UFOs with.



But really though, if I could have anything... history and riches aside... I'd like to have a matched pair of Purdeys in 16 and 28ga... and the stones to acctually hunt with them.
