I would love to see the new 500 S&W in a Camp Carbine configuration, also the CZ 97 in 10mm.

I would love to see North American come out with a 9mm Guardian.
I would also love to see a 9mm Seecamp.

I'd love to see Browning make a BRL Lightening, with the pistol grip, not straight stock, chambered for .338 Mag. calibre. Also would be nice if they made a longer barrel version. The BAR in that calibre is already 24".

I'd love to see Ruger make an M77 MKII, left handed in blue and/or stainless in .300 Rem Ultra mag, NOT the short mag; also .388 mag in the Left Handed. They only make the so-called popular standard calibres in southpaw versions- .270 Win, .30-06 Sprfd, 7mm Rem Mag and/or .243 or .25-06. I also would like the option of a longer barrel (26"or 28") if they were to make the .300 or .338 Rem Ultra Mag, not the short mag version.

I thought about that, IPT, but wondered if it were just too far out!

That is a great idea.....

It would take a recoil spring the size of a front '64 Chevy wagon with a 409 ci engine to stop the slide. The slide alone would be 10 pounds! Just the thought though! My heart aches for that one!

M-4 style carbine built specifically in 10mm - it would be far superior to the 5.56 up to 100 yards and perfect for clearing buildings and urban assult.

I loved both of the first two follow up responses... I'd like to see the .500 S&W carbine, I'd also like to see Beretta make a FS92 (or 96) type 10mm. I would also like to see a 10mm carbine that is more of a standard rifle and not one that looks like an "assault weapon". Stainless/synthetic is fine, but just with traditional lines, maybe based off the Ruger .44 mag series or off the Marlin Camp 45 line.
For me personally, I think highest on my list would be a Glock 36-based 10mm (single-stack magazine).

I'm sure you know about the AR type Olympic Arms 10mm conversions don't you?

Man, on GB there seemed to be very few 10mm fans, I think they are all here plus a few more - this is great!
BTW, where in OK are ya at? OKC here...

I don't own an M-4 but I think it would make a fine alternitive to the M-4 the military uses now.

I'm from MWC, myself. Try >gunboards.com< I'm there too.

How about a re-introduction of the Ruger Hawkeye in a few varioing cartridges.

How about some more Ruger cartridges based on the .480 case (.357 Ruger, .410 Ruger, .440 Ruger, .450 Ruger)

How about smaller caliber models of the GP100 series.

How about centerfire models of the 10/22 style action. (Volquartsen did it!)

How about me fiinding a 10mm to shoot so I can see what this 1mm buzz as of late is all about.

Some better gun ranges rent 10mm's. Also, you might be able to find someone near you with a 10mm. I also post over on GlockTalk on thier "10 ring" which is dedicated to the 10mm cartridge and the guns that shoot it. You might sign up over there and see if anyone there is close to you that would let you shoot thiers.
I'd be happy to let you shoot mine if you ever come through Oklahoma (but you have to buy the ammo). Think of the 10mm as a rimless semi-auto version of the .357 mag (yes, I know they made semi-auto magnums, but they're not really practical like the 10mm is).

Thumbs up Re: What Brand/caliber do you wish for?

I'd love to see Ruger make a .45 ACP carbine that takes P90 mags. Basically a PC9/ PC4 style rifle with a bigger bullet coming out of it. So who at Ruger do we e-mail to suggest it????
