Barrett or many others will do.
:iagree: Although I consider this a "rationally irrational" desire: it's something realistic to put on my wish-list; I just don't know that I would ever have much use for it. ;-)

2. M2 Browning "Ma Deuce"
3. Gatling gun
4. 1884 Maxim
5. ANY cannon
6. Thompson submachine gun
7. Uzi
8. FNH P90
9. M 32 grenade launcher
10. AA12, just cause the youtube video is so cool.
11. .950 JDJ
12. H&H .700 nitro express
13. Minigun
14. VO Falcon (if your gonna dream, dream big)
15. .50-90 sharps
16.............There's more but I have to get back to work. :biggrinjester:

Dillon mini gun. No practical use, costs a fortune to buy and a fortune to shoot for any length of time.

I would also add:

Military AK47

I guess mine would be a Mini14...but not just ANY Mini-14. Nope, the exact model used by---THE A-TEAM. The Mini-14GB-F...stainless steel with folding stock and flash suppressor...just for the "cool factor". I already have a regular, modern Mini that is way more accurate than the A-Team/police models of old...but I always wanted one as a kid...it'd probably run me over a grand for the privilege of owning one, but its about irrationality, right?
