You won't hear me gush too often about firearms. They are useful and have a purpose. But there are a couple that have caught my eye over the years for aesthetic, historical, or other reasons. So, I was watching the movie "Wind River" the other day when I fell in love with this baby:

It's a Marlin 1895SBL, a lever-action that fires a .45-70 round. It is primarily for hunting big game. It was also featured in "Jurassic World"
I figure that might satisfy my lust until I can afford a Stoner or Barrett .50 cal!
(On a side note: I didn't realize until now that Jeremy Renner was a lefty, Righties never notice these things... until it is too late! LOL!).
