I wish they'd bring back the Ruger #3 in the rimmed cartridges.

I would love to find a old #3 45-70 govt ........I have the 44mag auto from days of old and a 10-22, a #3 would make a nice set. What were the rounds it was chambered for? 44mag, 45-70, a 22 cal of some type and what? But they say that hot 45-70's are a killer (on both ends), but I shoot hot 45-70 in my ssk handcannon. I still think it would be a kicker, being so lite.

With the new 4" SP101 .22LR with fully adjustable sights Ruger is halfway there.  Now what we need is a .357 variant of that same gun to go with it.  The perfect packin' and plinkin' combo.

Ruger Single Six in .38 and .41 Special.

Make that the Old Model Single Six...
Now that would be a sweet hip gun for dispatching woulded birds durring small game season.

  I would like a falling block singleshot in .357 Max with a good trigger.
Keep it slim and light and easy to mount a scope on , or a version with good sights.
A hunting handgun like that for under $ 600 might get me back to using a handgun for hunting again.

I'd like to see Colt bring back the 2.5 inch Diamondback, or any of the other 6 round snubnose .38's. 
 
I'd like a Ruger striker-fired 10mm. 
 
I'd like Charter Arms to produce what they've been promising for years:  the 3" .44 Classic.
 
I'd like to see Springfield put the bayonet lug back on their M1A.  It just don't look right without it. 
 
I'd like to see H&R make their long-barreled Buffalo Classic in .22 Magnum, or even .22LR.

Or what about a Bearcat? Now that would be cool. But I like your ideas too.
