I'll start
https://www.guns.com/news/reviews/lever-action-pistol-perfection-henry-mares-leg I have fondness for lever actions and the mares leg is no exception. Technically a pistol, according to Uncle Sam. I want one of these in 44 magnum. The Steve McQueen reference in the video strikes a chord with me. The movie and also Chuck Connors as the Rifleman on TV was before my time but I am a fan of old TV shows and the distant past when Hollywood movie heroes were manly men.
 
The mares legs has intrigued me, not enough to get 1. Yet lol. Altough Zoe in Firefly made it awful tempting. Theres another movie(KaInt remember) where they use it and it has a fiber optic red dot- like the 1st 1s from80s on it. Looked very tackDcool. Im afraid it would be like my Tac14 and I might put my eye with it LMAO.
S&W Governor is still in the running with its 454 capable self. I do like my judge, no 454 though šŸ˜„
That 460 is just STUPID at the range. But it would be a very cool conversation piece. O boy let 1 rip at the range few years back. Guess my WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU expression said it all, dont think he knew how bad it was prior either lmao. We talked and he let crack off a couple IMPRESSIVE!!!!!! This time a little closer to the line šŸ‘

I have a Raging Hunter. Wonderfully impractical. Also a Ruger Alaskan in 454. That was my backwoods bear gun. Not good for much else. I wore it in a Gunfighter chest rig. Some folks who are in grizzly country all the time have switched to 10mm. I still like the big bore revolver because one possible scenario is the bear is on top of you. A semiautomatic will come out of battery if you have to push it into Yogi's fur and pull the trigger before he puts his jaws around your neck. :)

I think they used a chamber laser or laser pointer on hers.
 
Next on my list:

Desert Eagle 44 mag with the lightweight aluminum frame and built in comp. The L6 (six inch) model

I have the 50AE with the 44 mag conversion barrel. I liked it so much I bought another that I came across at a bargain price. I'd like to add the light weight model to the collection.

I should also mention that the Baby Eagle is also on my list. The metal frame version. The latest Kahr/US made model. Not the earlier IWI.

FNH PS90 - I already have a dozen mags for it (bought years ago). Don't have the rifle, yet. I do have the Five-seveN pistol in the same 5.7 caliber.

5.7 has tempted me many times but I haven't made the leap.

I also have a Rhino snubby and I'm thrilled by how much it has appreciated. I hardly ever shoot it, but it's a fine handgun and a very unique design. It came with a nice holster too. The case hardened version with the longer barrel is very cool but they tend to be pricey.

Have you looked at the 5.7 AR uppers? I played with 1 in late 90s. Pretty awesome, had top cut out of plastic mag inserted to catch spent brass.

No. Haven't looked at AR 5.7 uppers. Not really interested in building / buying an AR just for the caliber. I like the PS90 bullpup form factor. I also have an FNH FS2000 (5.56 bullpup).

Out of curiosity, what makes the Kahr version more desirable? I have the IWI version. Until recently, it and a PM9 were the only 9mm allowed in my house.

If you're going to go full Deagletard, why not the Jericho 941? :unsure: :D
