Not counting ones I have. Here is what is left on my wish list for the next few years:
Roth-Sauer
Bergmann #3 model 1896
Glisenti model 1910
Papa Nambu
Rast Gasser
Steyr Hahn
Savage model 1907 (French military contract)
Beretta model 1915
Mauser C96 (war model with the imperial stamps)
Artillery Luger
Webley IV .455 revolver
Smith & Wesson Victory model .45 revolver
Remington Rand
Femaru w/waffenamt stamps so either a 41 or 43
Walther PPK w/waffenamt stamps
Astra 400 within the Nazi contract serial range
Browning hi power tangent site w/waffenamt stamps
Mab D w/waffenamt stamps
CZ-38 w/waffenamt stamps
Mauser 1914 w/ imperial army acceptance stamp
Mauser 1934 w/kriegsmarine stamp
SACM 1935 w/waffenamt stamps

After those, I’ll move on to rifles and will want an Arisaka7.7mm w/full mum, .303 Lee-Enfield, 7.92 Mauser w/waffenamt stamp, M1 Garand (wartime serial range).

It’ll take me a few years to buy all those. That looks like a lot but believe it or not, I already have a pretty large WWI and WWII collection in addition to several modern guns.

Colt M1911A1 with the curved mainspring housing, preferably retired Army (acceptable substitute, Rock Island Arsenal new copy with the straight housing).

That’s it. For now.

Later, of course, Phased Plasma Rifle in 40W range (doesn’t sound impressive, but if he wanted it, it must be deadly).

From the Femaro down, you are a difficult man to please. :)

***Smith & Wesson Victory model .45 revolver***

I gots me one of these! Made for the British .455 cartridge but recut for a .45 Long Colt. Sights way off so I use a “Wondersight” on it.

I also have a S&W .38 Victory model that was converted in Britain to .22 LR. Proof marks all over it! Unfortunately someone before me reblued it. It shoots well.
