    S&W "L" frame in .41 Special; and a Ruger GP-100 in .41 Special. I'll keep the one that suits me best after extensive testing. May take a few years. But, I think I'd be up to the challenge.

    +1 for the L frame s&w in 41 special. And the gp100 in 41 special sounds good too. How about a revolver in 270 ren?

    Ruger now makes a .357 mag bolt action rifle. Wonder why they didn't chamber it for 357 max mag. I wonder if the action is long enough to convert to 357 max. Also wish that S&W had produced a k model in 327 mag.

    Ruger GP100 in 5 shot variations chambered for 41 Magnum and 44 Special.
    That'd be nice. How about more 32-20s? A six shot NM Blackhawk in 32-20 WCF, now I'd order the first one made!

    A friend has done a moon clipped 10mm on an L-frame, should be a good sub for
    a .41 Special.

    If it was easy, anybody could do it.

    A Colt Python in 41 Spec. A Ruger (any Ruger) that didn't require rebuilding new out of the box.
    45 AUTO! Because having to shoot someone twice is just silly!

    x-frame 475 cal. in the 500 necked down. or the 45-70 blown out and cut to 500 length
    and I have always wanted a 458 cal revolver the x-frame would do
    but if Ruger would please get on the x-frame size bandwagon you did so great with the 357 max. Make a Bisley 5 shot in any of the rounds I have listed
    475/500
    475/45-70 cut to 500 mag length
    a 458 in a 500 mag length
    and even bring back the good old 357 max
    oh yea while your at it the 445 super mag

    A GP-100 in .44 special - I'd hock the farm to buy that one.

    Another one Ruger should do is a Single-Six in 5-shot .38 Special. It most certainly can be done - custom 'smiths are already doing it.

    I would like to see a .32 semiauto pistol with a 4" barrel, adjustable sights and accurate enough to use as a trail gun. Preferably the .32 NAA or a cartridge that would be close to the .32 H&R.

    Great idea! And make it very light. A modern colt 1903 pocket with some stomp.

    I'm thinking a cross between a kel-tec pmr30 and a ruger mkii.

    yes a mk III 22/45 in a 32 cal with the 4" slab sided bull barrel would be a great gun to have for all around hunting, plinking, and trail gun. Big enough to take varmint small enough to take squirrel. all and all this may be the best idea for an all around smaller bore gun.

    But I do have the love of the big boomers. They are like a sickness to me so I still stick to my earlier post.

    I have always thought that a larger, (4") more shootable, but still extremely light and flat version of the kel-tec p3at or p32 would be very handy to have in a wasteband. Something with a 4" barrel and weighing in close to 15oz loaded. Kahr cw9 is close, but not quite.

    x2

    I like the way you think! the GP in .44 spl would be even better.

    i'll also add an adjustable sight bisley single six chambered in .327 offered with a 6.5" and 5.5" barrel. hell....... i'd even settle for another run of the this platform chambered .32 H&R
