I want a Taurus PT111 Millenium or something equally itty bitty. Also a Desert Eagle to show to the ladies *waggles eyebrows* No, seriously, for home defense just something that doesn't jam and holds a lot of rounds. The Taurus is for wearing in public BP

A Walther PPK would be nice. I don't think they produce those anymore though.
Check out the Bersa Thunder. It has a similar styling, is fairly sleek and reliable. Also if you have large hands it has a nub on the back to protect the web between your thumb and first finger from getting jacked by the slide.

That's nice. Although, for concealed carry, I'd probably prefer the Glock 26.

I'd like to have a Mauser C96 and dress it up to look like Han Solo's blaster. It was an actual Mauser that was modified by the FX department for Harrison Ford to use. The stormtrooper rifle was an Sterling SMG I believe. and the heavy blaster chewie had in the detention centre of the death star was an MG34.
I'd love to own all three of those, fully functional of course, so I can go Star Wars on your ass.

Da_Bang, you are correct. I also believe that the rifle used by the Rebels on Hoth and elsewhere is a modified Stg.44.
The C96 is a nice looking gun though. Accurate too. I think they made a full auto version in many calibres, the .45 cal one ending up in the hands of chinese nationals during the 20's and 30's.

If I were ever to own a military weapon, like I dunno, if I were going to move to Cameroon or something, I'd want a FN P90. I like that it ejects cartridges downward, and the 900 round-per-minute firing rate, 50-round magazine, and 716m/s muzzle velocity is pretty nice too ;P This is the gun that SG teams use, isn't it?

Yeah, that, paired with a Five seveN would be nice. At least they use the same ammo. 5.7mm, the size of a pistol round with the power of an assault rifle round. I think they used the Five seveN on SG and BSG, no?

Oooh, gets me all frisky inside.
A police friend of mine in MIami has a Calico- fires .22 "Magnum" load that hit like .38. Scary how easy that thing is to fire, but hardly possible t conceal without a trenchcoat (which in Miami's heat screams "I've got a gun!".
The thing that really bugs me is the total lack of regulation of gun shows: most will sell perfectly legal kits that convery semi-auto to full auto and (at least here in the south) are a magnet for hate groups, paranoid nuts and "personel sales" (also legal) of firearms between people which require no 3-day waiting period. Lotta gun dealers selling that way: no rules or oversight.

I work at McD's unfortunately. The toys *suck.* However, I don't recall this toy...perhaps it's not ready for distribution yet? We're still on the stupid panda-things from some kids movie.

Burger King gets all the cool toys- I heard they had some Iron Man stuff but when I went it was all Indy 4 stuff.
McD's sucks- they gave me food posioning a few years back and I prayed for death to make it stop. I've never been back- never will.
