Lotto money gun 2

[Sld1959]

The previous thread made me think of this. If you won that fictional 500 million lotto what gun would you have special made for you. Either something from history, a design from your head or sonething like that. Preferably something actually possible with modern technology, and able to be actually owned and used.

My first thought would be British Bulldog revolver made in modern .357 magnum. There were various manufacturers, any would do. Just always liked the design and always thought of doing a Dr John Watson with one in my jacket pocket lol.

I want a shotgun sized EMP / Direct energy weapon.

Hmmm...having mulled it over, I would go the "buy an island" route, or better yet, some land in Alaska where people are scarce. Then I'd go on a shopping spree and buy the guns that call out to me...some HK, Walther, SA. I can distinguish their voices .

Close second might be a Royal Irish Constabulary revolver in 357 magnum to use in CASS fun. Some theorize was the revolver Custer was carrying at his last and biggest miscalculation.

Try to buy the Bren Ten pistol that actually came with 2 mags I passed up back in 1986…….

Knowing myself as I do, I’d probably desire something that money couldn’t buy!

Something from history: I'd like an M3A1 grease gun, something I carried for a few years.

 

[Shibadog]

10 lb Whitworth field gun, with carriage, caison and a lot of rounds ( and of course a large western ranch where I could shoot it)

 

[Lock n' Load]

Build a huge warehouse with pallets of firearms like BET7's but with an indoor range complete with turning target bays and button reset steel in the other bays.

We had these while in Germany but never saw one in Vietnam. Don't doubt some units still used them. Vaguely remember being told rusting would be a real problem as they were made from stamped metal costing around 17 bucks a piece. M2 rust was pain too.

Typical German weather would rust many things. Had to take care of them diligently. There were zippered covers for our M2s which we used if we were moving from range to range or on maneuvers. This was before MILES gear where the gun had to be exposed to the elements.

`We had the canvas covers for M2's in Germany. In Vietnam a cut down tripod or a modified bi-pod looking mount was on the top of the TC's cupola. On our M-60 series in Germany the M2 receiver was inside the cupola. You're right really didn't matter much as they rusted so easily. I'm sure we had the M2 canvas covers but just don't remember using them.

Just got to thinking the M2 I referred too in Germany could've been the M-85 not an M2. That was over 50 years ago and my memory is often not accurate.

Railgun.

Railgun.

Afraid you got me on the railgun. You must be yanking my chain as I sure don't remember a railgun on a M48A3 tank.

You need to re-read the OP, methinks.

I got it, the conversation started out on M3A1 grease guns and went on to mention M2 50 cal machine guns & grease guns rusting problems.

Nuke trumps a railgun

I refuse to participate in the drift.

 

[Bassbob]

It would be an HK machine gun of some sort.
