What would you like to see them make?
I've always thought a 7.62 x 25 revolver would be a good thing. Ruger could make an extra cylinder for their 30 Carbine Blackhawk without too much trouble.

For GLOCK to build something in 7.62x25 on a Model 21 sized frame.
Gun companies seriously underestimate the shooting community's want for something modern in that caliber.

new guns in 7.62x25. Maybe a bolt rifle in it and other pistol calibers like 45, 44, 357,25 auto, 32 acp, 9mm, and 30 carbine.

Re: What would you like to see them make?
Some new US made assault rifles! Seriously, the AR is 50 year old technology - why isn't anybody designing something new? Sure there's guns like the Masada and XCR, but where are they?
I want to see a widely available, US made, gas piston powered high capacity rifle with the accuracy of an AR, the reliability of an AK and in a superior cartridge like the 6.8 SPC. Is that so fucking difficult? Or do we just have to keep settling for the same half-assed AR derivatives again and again?
I realize most weapons development happens at military request, and our military today is cheap and lazy - but look how many ARs there are in civilian hands today. There are probably more civilian AR owners than there are soldiers carrying them! I guarantee there is a strong market for new rifles.

Double stack P220ST (.45ACP)
Factory threaded barrel
High profile night sights (mepro's)
Adjustable skeletonized trigger (reward travel stop)
Slide lock (prevent the slide from reward travel) -- fire what is in the chamber only
DA/SA however with option to go cocked and locked.
Basically a setup to compete with the HK USP tactical.

Re: What would you like to see them make?
Not guns, but ammo. What wolf is to Russia, ? is to US. Moar available match grade ammo. Good cartridges getting massed produced, like .338 LM, 6.8 SPC, .50 BMG, .300 WM etc.
A 9mm and/or .22lr FN P90S. HK clones worth buying. A no shit SVD clone, not a big AK but an SVD. A reintroduction of the AR180 with better ergonomics, greater integrity, and multi caliber options. In general, weapons that are moar logistically sound.
Ooh, modern top break DA revolvers,

A break barrell semi-auto shotgun that doesn't cost an arm and a leg, somthing with a similar technology to the Beretta UGB25 Xcel, but affordable.

Re: What would you like to see them make?
My assault rifle design in production and use by a major army.
A rebirth of the FAL, in a more practical cartridge, say 7x57 mm.
