What is on your handgun 'to buy' list this month?

There was a stage in my life where the local shop had a sort of "sale" every Saturday. Coffee and doughnuts. New and used. CCW had just become law in the state.

And so I was buying, selling, trading, buying some more. One Saturday I was looking over the "used" gun case and realized that about half of the handguns in there had belonged to me at one time.

I just bought a bolt action 30-06, to replace the bolt action 30-06 I gave my nephew back in November.

My "list" ??? You name it. Either I have one now or I've owned it in the past. OK -- so no handguns in calibers larger than 44 magnum. If I need a "cannon" I'll go for a long-gun.
 
It was a Smith and Wesson M&P 340, it is already on the way so the next in line is actually snubbie .454, either Ruger or Taurus. It won't see that many rounds and they are both basically snub nosed boat anchors but thems the breaks for that kind of fire power.

I'm hoping to pick up the new S&W SD40, I haven't gotten a chance to hold it yet and the final decision will depend on that. At this point though I think I will be parting ways with $400 the day I get to see it.
 
I already got it.

Uberti 357mag 7.5" Cattleman with steel frame. It's the Cavalry version and as I was in the Cav some 40+ years ago, it's a perfect match.

I spent my money on the Hämmerli 212 that I just found after a long search. The M41 with a 5.5" barrel will be a whole lot easier to find when I have financially recovered and shot the 212 enough to move on.
