I have only seen these once, many years ago at auction and I fell in love with them and have coveted them ever since as the highest level of the gunmaker's art I have ever seen. If they were ever to come on sale again I suspect they would a tad more than I could afford so your hypothetical post is the only way I could own them even hypothetically.
Just two locks per pistol or more Adam? The waterproof part is intriguing for a wheel lock although I have seen pictures of fully enclosed wheel lock pistols in the past.
Yes two locks per pistol.

Sorry, is the question: if you could have ANY gun you wanted? Or; if you could only have ONE gun?

Just a bit thrown by the people who have mentioned guns that you can legally have now? wtf

Fantasy time; M143 minigun (mounted to my car for dealing with traffic jams lol )

One gun to run them all; probably a 6.5 or .308 AR

Well it would have to be a Mossberg A500 pump action shotgun
Reasons being can use anything from bird shot to solid slug thus giving you scope for anything from large game all the way down to snipe size targets, survival needs in one gun

Dude ... that is like choosing between your son or your daughter in "Sophie's choice" wallhead
As a rifle defo a Vz58, I guess I'd like to only swap my Semi-Auto for a Full-Auto one and as a pistol, without a shadow of a doubt I would keep my Cz75 P01 Omega.
