Now that `08 is here, what changes would you like to see and from what gunmakers would you like to see them??? Caliber additions? Stock designs? Revolver? Pistol? Designs? Colors? Improvements? Ammo?..........Whatever!!!...........................Along with the double action Super Redhawk, I would like to see Ruger come in with the .454 Casull, 460S&W & 500 in a single action offering!! (The Super Duper Blackhawk?) Like the BFR`s from Magnum Research!!...................................I would like to see Marlin offer their .450 Marlin in a STAINLESS short barreled guide gun!! Only available in blued!............................................I would like to see Howa, Browning and others offer larger bore calibers, in their standard rifles, beyond the 338 Win. Mag., but other than the too common 375 H&H!! In part, that may not be possible due to legal, patent or permission reasons!! But still a thought!.......................................And, I would like to see Pyro behind the counter of a gun store, hypothetically restricted to sell only 270`s!! That would be funny!!!! Knowing he hates the 270, I`d love to hear his sales pitch and watch the facial expressions!!Big%20GrinBig%20GrinBig%20GrinBig%20GrinBig%20Grin

Well! You can`t make any changes or improvements with anything until after they come out on the market first!...............New Winchester rifles are coming out, but what changes to existing, all ready on the market firearms would everyone like to see?

So, basically, what you're saying, Pyro, is that you're a whore whose principles are for sale to the highest bidder?Wink

Oh Yeah!.... Sure! I`d take a Smith! I have one!! Great revolver!...................But I can`t see for the money, why they are more expensive than Rugers, especially when Rugers are extremely strong!!......In fact, I`m willing to bet that the Rugers are even little stronger. I would just like to see Ruger offer more of the big stuff in both the single and double actions.

I  would like to see colt make a decent 1911, a decent revolver and a decent M16...................
I would love to try a Kimber classic, that not was produced on one of the seven mondays that week but a tuesday instead, with a accuracy on 1/2-1MOA.
A Leupold scope that have fixed eyerelief and clearity of a euro scope.
 
That would be a great start for 08

USFA is supposed to come out with a 1908 Colt clone.  That I want to see as most of the '08's that I see have been redone too many times or are a bit pricey.  And Pimping one out will not bother my like a classic Colt. Dirty%20Harry
 
Next is a Mini-Mauser in 6.8 with a medium weight barrel with threaded flashhider and a light stock and optional scout scope mounting. Smoking%20Bandit

I would like to see zeiss add their raincoating to the conquest line of scopes.

I would like to see McMillian start making their stocks soon enough that you aren't too old to hunt by the time it arrives.

I would like to see McMillian edge stocks with a built in color or camo pattern.

I would like to see savage add the 260 back to the lineup.

I would really like to see it stop snowing up here for a while....we got 40" in december.

I would like to see the two Lothar Walther barrels I got coming be hummers for accuracy.

Focus
I Can See Clearly Now......<><

If Accurate rifles Are Interesting.....I've Got Some Savages That Are Getting Mighty Interesting......
