I am thinking about exercising my C&R license and have looked at several pistols. Just wondering what you guys think are good C&R pistols for collecting as well as collectible AND "shootable". Collectible first and fore most; shootable as well being a big plus.
Some I have been looking at (yes these vary a lot in price):
S&W or Colt Heavy Frame Target revolver in 22LR (thinking these would be good shooters - less likely to see a 22LR that's worn out maybe?)
Various Colt revolvers from the 30's to the 60's
Various S&W revolvers from the 30's to the 60's
German P.08 Luger (ATF denied me when I tried to bring one of these back when I was over seas and have wanted one ever since.)
German P.38
Colt 1911 (should I wait for the CMP offering?)
Thoughts?
