I don't think I have any "grail" guns, but I do appreciate fine examples or uncommon variations. All that I can offer up is this slightly used surplus German handgun.

I don't think I would call any gun I already own a grail gun because I usually only use that term for one that I still don't have and would like to acquire. I do have an unusual gun that is my favorite to shoot at this time. It is a B&T SPR300. It is a 300 blk bolt action integrally suppressed breakdown urban sniper rifle which is designed to engage targets out to around a little less than 200 yards. It is extremely quiet and very accurate. I can shoot small steel plates at a range of 200 yards with it without the need for hearing protection if no other shooters are around.

I just recently sold a FN M249S that was pretty fun to shoot. It used to be one of my grail guns to acquire and it was nice to look at it hanging on my wall. I even had the titanium tripod for it. After a while burning through all of that ammo at today's prices/scarcity gets old and I decided to let it go to a new home.

Awesome pistol. I have a 40....and won't part with it. I posted this thread as a visual stimulation for the lovers of this hobby. It's not a contest, and there's so many different things.....for different tastes. I love to see what drives people's brains.While it may not stack up to some of those already posted, for me my grail gun/never sell ever gun would have to be my Expert in 45. It just shoots better for me then any other pistol I have ever owned. It's not bad looking either.
Awesome pistol! That company ended up being about 15 minutes from me, when they were making mouse-guns.Budischowsky PP-10 "Minigun" in 10mm with spare matched barrel in 9x25 Dillon, marked barrel tool, set up for and equipped with a shoulder stock. Only 20 total PP-10 built but no one seems to know of another with these 2 features. I guess that makes it 1 of a kind within 20. Serial # 004.View attachment 390
Three guns I always wanted and never thought I would ever have - MP5SD, Glock 18C, VP70. Got the first 2, still need to get a VP70.
Wow.. now that is a batch of keepers for sure... absolutely fabulous.At age 53 we finally moved to a state where it was legal to get the grail guns I really wanted...

Agree... I had the full size one myself... but always wanted the mini but never got one... the HK virus is too strong.Very nice--- especially the Mini Uzi.

Sounds awesome...For an open bolt compact SMG, the Mini is the shizzle. I am fortunate to own 2, one a Postie that gets used and a Pre-'86 DS that does not. Huge old school AWC can. The natural cyclic rate is pretty high, I was able to locate in new condidtion a factory bolt that had been lightened and tungsten weights added, dropping it down to around 750 from 1000+. The guy who made it told me that if I took the cover plate off, removed the wieghts, and reinstalled the cover plate I would get 1800 rpm out of it. I haven't tried that yet.....but with a converted Suomi drum for it, should be fun.........
We have very similar tastes it appears.

Well you sir are going to love the B&T SPR300. I had no idea when I purchased it a few years ago that I would grow to love it as I have. I've owned 15 B&Ts and it is by far my favorite. If the M249S was not so easy to break by pulling back the bolt with the safety on I probably would still have it. I was just always so scared of accidentally breaking the darn thing that it took most of the fun away from shooting it. In the end I just figured that between all of that money just sitting there collecting dust most of the time and the fact that ammo may never be cheap or easy to get again... it was time to find mine a new home. I do miss seeing it on the wall though... damn that thing looked sexy... lol.We have very similar tastes it appears. I too sold my M249s last month and my SPR300 is still in ATF Jail, LoL
