>>29845893
Mine's so outdated I can't post it but I just picked up these 2 within the past week in trades. Both have far surpassed my expectations and I really like them both.
>>29846676
Adler-Jaeger AP-85 (called MAS-22 in the US). It's supposed to be a .22 FAMAS.

Jesus OP, did you just step out of the trenches or something?
Decided to buy a battle mug and another set of sordins instead of a new gun this time.
>>29847398
What's the Super Shorty like to shoot? Is it worth the hassle of AOW paperwork?
>>29847499
Honestly, it is thoroughly unpleasant. No sights, all of the excessive recoil goes directly into the web of your hand, and the knurling on the foregrip will chew up degloved hands. Even with birdshot I always end up with broken skin on the grip area.
Couple that with how ridiculously expensive they are, and no, I'd say definitely not worth it. Much prefer a sawnoff sxs.
But, in fairness, I have relatively girly wrists.

>>29847575
tamer's and low recoil birdshot are a must. 3 rounds of anything else and im done for the day.
>>29847499
if you already have a trust and want a stupid range toy that puts smiles on peoples faces every time then go for it. i wouldnt do it if this is going to be your only NFA tho.
>>29848523
I've got a tamer on mine, still doesn't help much. It ain't too bad with gloves on though.
>>29848575
do you put that can on it? i've been toying with the idea of getting one and making this gun as ridiculous as possible and i've already spent 2500 on stamps since 41whatever got announced. but there is still time i guess.
Getting hard to fit them all in one pic. Waiting for stamps now.

>>29849955
Never say never man. If you guys fight for it enough you can get your rights back.
My next buy will probably be a proper Combloc optic for my SLR104. I'm on the fence between a PK01 or an Obzor, or if I want to be lame and jut get an Aimpoint or MRO instead of an Eastern optic.
>>29845893
Love old school shit, my senpai. Also have a Westernfield 30-30 lever action and a S&W 649
>>29849955
Christ I love that shotgun
>>29849955
>>29849955
eh thats a nice little collection tho. i like the old milsurps. confused by your last shotgun though, its a pump? i dont see the room for the handle to pump it, it almost looks like a semi but theres no charging handle on the bolt??
>>29850275
nm just spotted the level, my bad. is that a legality thing there? lever action shotguns are ok, but pumps arent??
>>29846501
thats a reproduction 1897
>>29850275
Its a lever scattergat friendo
>>29849990
Shit man, it's hard enough keeping our fucking lever guns let alone getting semi auto's back from almost unobtainium status.
Might be a possibility for semi .22s and maybe scattergats, but for centrefires, it's extremely unlikely.
If we don't keep fighting, they'll take fucking everything
>>29850275
Thanks man.
Yeah it looks a little odd, but all it is is a modern lever action shotty. Adler A110. Pretty much made for the Aussie market cause lol no pump shotties.
>>29850214
It's pretty neat, I managed to modify the action so it's a little smoother now.
Managed to score 18/25 on my first round of clays with it.
Quick follow-up shots are very manageable, and apart from me not opening the lever all the way, I've yet to have any real feeding issues
Still, If I could have own pump actions, I'd choose it in a heartbeat over this
>>29845893

wtf??
>>29850353
i imagine enfields are pretty cheap and common there? probably plenty of ww2 surplus around huh? does pretty much every gun owner in AUS own an enfield?
havnt bought anything new in a year and a half. my life is empty
>>29850747
i like. how heavy is it? never held one, i imagine its about the weight of an ar15? recoil is probably minimal? looks like a fun plinker
>>29851874
we have similar taste anon, i like your collection. got pretty much the same collection minus the bottom rolling block, what is that called again? is that a martini henry? or a springfield trapdoor?
>>29851917
Martini-Henry and theyre falling blocks
>>29851874
if you just want something new to play with, when your finds allow it, treat yourself to a swiss K31. or pick up a mosin carbine on the cheap. or a m1 carbine to round out your america. an SKS might be nice for you too since you already have an AK and buy the ammo for it. enfield no 4 down the road, but its pretty similar to your smle. i say get a M44 carbine, for the price you cant go wrong. you already have the 54 ammo and its a whole new experience making 4 foot fireballs, youll never shoot the 91/30 again
>>29852012
Ive been considering adding a Winchester 1897 to the collection so I have a shotgun to boot with everything else.
I wanna cut it down too...but Id feel bad doing it to a legit 1897 but I dont wanna buy a norinco, so im kinda at an impasse here.
>>29845959
How do you like that Swiss Revolver?
>>29852037
dont waste your money on a norinco or the other replicas. i woudlnt chop an original, but i suppose if it was a cheap one in low condition whats the harm?
>>29846853
Where's your mosin?
Where's you tok?
Your nagant?
Your vz61?
You call this a slavshit collection?
>>29851882
It is probably close to am AR with a full mag in the ump. It is a fun shooter probably favorite my only complaint is that the iron sights on it are super low almost uncomfortably so but that is fixed with the eotech. The recoil is more of a sharp snap than anything kind of like an ak
>>29852230
is it your HD setup? pretty reliable shooter?
>>29846853
I've heard a lot of handguards don't fit properly on CSA VZ58s, did you have to do any work on it to get it to fit?
>>29852260
I have never had any problems with it no jams or anything. no it is not what I use for hd because if I shot someone with it I would probably never get it back and it was expensive as fuck lol
>>29851836
The logic to ban them wasn't based around the mechanics of the gun. They were banned because every man and his dog had a pump shotty.
It was basically to kill the gun 'culture'.
>>29851853
SMLEs and No4s are plenty common yeah, and mostly reasonably priced (for us anyway).
You could pick up either model for around $350-400US if you looked around.
So yeah, you always see a few at the range.
The other most common Milsurp I see are Martinis and M96s. There's also plenty of mosins, carcanos, k31s, steyr 1895s, etc.
I'd fucking love to get my hands on a 1903a3, but they're rare as fuck over here and cost a damn fortune if you manage to find one.
Only example I can find, and it's not even an original (would still buy if I was loaded though)
http://www.lawranceordnance.com/shot_and_shell/rifles_renewed_military/03a3_c.php
I also haven't seen any MAS 36s around either, would love to get one of those too, although ammo would be fucking hard to find.
>>29852385
i see, so they overlooked the lever action and clever manufacturers took advantage of the oversight later on? any danger of lever actions getting banned then?
>>29852385
ah well, always want what you cant have. enfields are a damn nice rifle id be plenty happy with those. i just bought my first one last week

next stop: shotty town
other than that, you got a nice little sample of everything there
>>29853211
That's pretty much the gist of it.
Yeah actually, they tried to ban the same shotgun (which in turn meant all lever actions) because it looked scary and everyone thought it fired in fucking semi auto or some bullshit.
Luckily all that shit got repealed cause lever actions have actually been around for over 100 years and they aren't some new scary technology designed to kill babbies faster.
>>29853232
Don't get me wrong, I love my bolt guns as much as the next guy, but no semi-autos?
Man, I would fucking kill to own an M1
Got the Taurus 44 a week ago. It's sexy as hell and has the nicest Polished Stainless I've ever seen. Wanted a .44 Mag and couldn't have done better for what I paid.
Got the HK P30SK last night but, sadly, the Grip as I feared was too short for me. Doesn't feel comfy and I'm looking to trade it for a Compact 9mm - hopefully a Sig 239. So.. if anyone in NE Ohio wants a P30SK let me know.
>>29854614
I would be worth it.
>>29855083
Shot a Garand over the weekend for the first time and it was surprisingly pleasant. I loved shooting it. I expected more recoil since the only full-power Rifles I've shot have been a bolt .308 and Mosin 91/30.
10/10 soft recoil impulse would like to own. I suspect the PTR-91 doesn't shoot quite as soft as the Garand but I hope it's not quite Mosin bad.
>>29855091
The PTR has like a delayed recoil impulse, but feel similar to the Garand, maybe a touch more rough.
>>29855096
Is it just me though or is the Garand much softer-shooting than a bolt .308 or Nagant?
>>29855112
That would be fair. I wouldn't say it's "a lot softer" but it's definitely noticeable.
>>29855118
Maybe I just tend to flinch less and anticipate less with semi-autos. I had a good shooting day and wasn't thinking about Flinching like I sometimes do.
The little derringer is an 1860's original but sadly broken. The Sharps is in .54 percussion (and a year later I still haven't shot it).

12" barrel. Don't worry, I've got the sheet music. Tuned to the key of C for the best barrel harmonics and ported for maximum recoil reduction
>>29865561
the bottom metal is from CDiPrecision Gunworks. price is $209. fitting is free if you want them to do it and send them the rifle. the bottom metal and trigger guard aren't as pretty as the stock one, and there's a small part on the back shoulder of the magwell where it's not flush with the wood, so there's a trade off for aesthetics.
the mags are AI 300winmag and expensive as hell. they also need a bit of filing to work right. the inside of the front flutes so the thicker necks don't stick in there. the front of the feed lips so they feed better. I also whittle the back of the plastic follower so I can close the bolt on an empty mag.
I also filed the bottom of the feed ramp just a bit. some of the longer bullets were getting stuck under it if I didn't insert the magazine just right.
the 5rd mags are nice. I mostly stick with those. the 10rd mags are very long and wobble a bit in the magwell. I'm trying to see what I can do about that. I've got a couple of those mostly in case of deathclaws, skagzillas, and verdugos.
it's a lot of fun once you get it working right.
>>29865561
the scope is a 2.5x Leupold FX-II Ultralight, with ultra low quick release rings.
so far I've just used it for expensive and loud target practice, letting friends and neighbors try it out. next year they'll take me hunting and I suppose that's what I'll bring.
honestly I'm just a recoil junkie and have wanted an elephant gun since playing Borderlands in college.

levergunleather.com
it's expensive and got a long wait time but very well made
>>29865738
it's actually very comfortable to shoot. in one of the midwayusa videos larry said 375 was about the most recoil the average shooter can take repeatedly without thinking about it, and that sounds about right.
I've never shot it from a bench, just standing, kneeling, sitting, and prone. prone kicked the most.
tin cans are my typical target practice since I have a lot of them. I try a couple guns on some apples I carelessly let go bad, but nothing like a watermelon.
>>29865720
Is the scope a big improvement on the iron sights? How does it compare to 45-70?
>>29862780
The Sharps is a 90's production Antonio Zoli replica from Italy, I paid 600 for it
>>29865785
I like the scope better than the irons. the irons are nice, I definitely prefer having them as an option, hence the quick release rings, but they're not as easy for me to shoot accurately with as my M1A's aperture sight or 1873's peep tang sight.
the kick from standard .375 is about the same as Buffalo Bore's 430gr 45-70+P loads.
>>29865786
>Antonio Zoli
I think I've heard of their shotguns, but not muzzleloaders. it's very nice. I've always wanted to shoot a 50-90, and I bet you can load that about the same.

>are you a swissfag?? that has to be the NICEST stock i have ever seen on a k31, my only explanation is that you live there
I refinished it, although it was in pretty good shape already. Steamed the stock a bit to sweat out a few bumps, very light sanding, then refinished with linseed. The stock is beech, not walnut, so it's already lighter. I personally prefer a lighter colored stock.
I'm Belgian though, not Swiss. K31s exported to the USA tend to be bought in huge batches. K31s exported to european countries tend to be hand picked by the importer. So yes, you'll find a lot more "pretty" K31s in Europe then you'd find in the US.

>>29866230
mind sharing the process of steaming? what do you use, an iron? i have a clothes steamer i bought to try this technique on a mauser, but it didnt do shit. how long do you need to do it for, and do you need a steamer that comes out hard like a jet? sanding more first?
>>29866273
I used a normal iron at a low-ish setting, but didn't use the "steam" function of the iron itself. Though maybe that'd work too?
I put a wet cloth (recycled natural color thick cotton t-shirt, but you could use a wash cloth or something too) over the stock & put a hot iron on, for 20 second increments at a time. Then lift the iron, wet the wood & the cloth and apply again. Make sure not to dry out the wood!
This only works with bumps btw, not where there's actual breaks.
I've only done this once, but it seemed to work fine. I'd caution you to use thick cloth though, or fold it over multiple times if you only have a thin t-shirt. I'd also not risk using a colored t-shirt, since I'm not sure if there's risk of color transfer.
Been wondering if I should give my 100 year old SMLE a go, but I dunno. It's kinda meant to look old, right? Still, SMLE N°1 MkIII look sexy as fuck when like-new.
>>29866343
>but didn't use the "steam" function of the iron itself. Though maybe that'd work too?
To clarify, I don't mean putting a hot iron on the exposed wood! That's just ruin the wood. I meant steaming through the cloth.
But since the cloth you use is already wet as hell, and you apply a hot iron, it becomes steam anyway. Your iron needs to be hot enough, but not on a scorcher setting.

Battle scars are sexy anon, I wouldn't change it
>>29866343
thank you very much sir, i will try your technique
and yeah haha i think you should leave the SMLE alone, their dark wood looks great dinged up. it would end up looking weird if you tried because theres probably too many stains and dents to ever get back to new condition
>>29866355
yeah i gotcha, im gonna try this out with my K31's buttstock , it has a ton of tiny little dimples/dings, thanks for sharing your technique
>>29866366
>yeah i gotcha, im gonna try this out with my K31's buttstock , it has a ton of tiny little dimples/dings, thanks for sharing your technique
I'd suggest trying it out on less exposed places or places where you expect to do quite a bit of sanding first.

hows that smle shoot? and how hard is it to find 303 in belgium? is there still a lot of surplus avaialble from ww2 there?
>>29866399
>hows that smle shoot?
I don't shoot it. The barrel isn't in great condition (though it's passable).
>and how hard is it to find 303 in belgium?
You can get modern PPU .303 in virtually every gun store.
>is there still a lot of surplus avaialble from ww2 there?
The only surplus I know of is Pakistani shit that's prone to hangfire. I wouldn't bother with it. It's not like a bolt action shoots sufficient volume not to buy modern production ammo.
As for WW2? Hah, no. You can still dig up .303 from WW1 out of the soil if you have a metal detector and a shovel, but I wouldn't try shooting that. ;)

thats funny, that shit paki stuff is what im shooting now. you hear the click and 2 seconds later it goes off

Mateba Unica 6
aka Meatball
>>29865572
between the CZ75 and the Jericho which has the more ergonomic grip?
also do the wood Jericho grips stay tight even though the only screw holding them on is all the way at the bottom?

Stoeger coachgun, double trigger 12ga.
Cut, refinished, sculpted grip, reinstalled bead sight myself. Runs like a champ. Some people say it'd be impossible to break open because you don't have the leverage to cock the internal hammers but I slicked up the action well enough to where it's essentially as easy as breaking a stock one. Deactivated the auto-safety and tuned a few springs as well.
>>29846883
Love me some Finnish AK's.
>>29867864
1878 manufacture that was sold out of service to the South Australian police. There are no Nepalese markings on it if any kind which was a huge plus for me when I bought it.
It's one of the few milsurp rifles I kept after selling off all of my WWII rifles except my Garand. I have a thing for South African military history and especially the Boer Wars, so I couldn't get myself to sell it. One of these days I want to buy more Martinis, a Lee Metford, and at least two Boer marked Mausers (pretty expensive tho) but I'm not in a rush. 1870-1900 era milsurp from South Africa is really the only milsurp i have an interest in collecting anymore.

Holy shit, what do you do for a living?
>>29867824
I find them quite equal in terms of ergos, but that depends entirely on the grips you put on them. That said, the wood Jericho grips fit my hand better than the classic wood CZ grips. I plan on doing some fitting work on the CZ grips next chance I get.
Yeah, the screw on both the CZ and Jericho keep the grips nice and snug. Be careful though as the Jericho grip screws are made of a harder metal than the frame and you could potentially strip the frame threading. Mine are starting to go.

It's a question of making choices in life.
>>29867898
so how comfortable is it to shoot with different shot loads?
what's the spread and velocity like?
what about the recoil?
what did you need to do to smooth the action, just polish contact surfaces and grease it up?
I love the tight spread of the full and mod chokes on my CZ. I can't imagine I'd ever cut it down other than some road warrior/fallout/rage shtf scenario where I'd need to bug out, save weight, and ATF law is gone.
CZ has SxS frames sized for all the major shot gauges including .410.
I wrote them a while ago asking how feasible it'd be to make one with a short barrel, without a butt stock, and 1 in 20" rifling as a .410/.45 Colt pistol but all they wrote back was they had no plans to do so.
I think it'd be a kick ass idea though. no NFA stamp or taxes. mad max, doom, and fallout are popular as ever so I'm sure there'd be a market. .410/.45 revolvers and derringers are popular enough already. the only major change to tooling they'd need is rifling the barrels. plus there's no competition. the only SxS .410 pistol I've ever heard of is a cheap cobray derringer.
wishful thinking
>>29868132
that's like me except I've only got one cat now and another hobby in motorcycles.
it really is all in how you prioritize.
>>29868201
>so how comfortable is it to shoot with different shot loads?
Birdshot is a blast, and can easily be shot one handed provided you hang on to it. Buckshot and slugs, you're gonna need two hands. There's a technique to it in using the natural tension in your unlocked arms to absorb and slow recoil rather than just holding it stout and unmoving, which is enjoyable.
>what's the spread and velocity like?
Haven't measured it just yet, only been dirt blasting. I've got a chronograph handy and need to bring it out next time with the obrez and a few other short 12ga to get some readings. Spread, as best I can tell by eyeballing the splatter and going from memory (grain of salt here), was about two feet at 10 yards or so. Don't quote me on that til I've got a paper target though.
>what about the recoil?
Substantially more than a full size shotgun for sure. Many people seem to think that "lol all the powder burns off outside of the barrel so it's super light" Naw, man. Naw. Shotgun powder burns very very quickly and if you've got a 10" barrel that's basically all of it done. Minus the weight of the barrel and stock chopped off, you've got one hell of a rearward booster. Eventually I'd like to set up a swing stage for guns like in webm related to demonstrate comparative recoil.
>what did you need to do to smooth the action, just polish contact surfaces and grease it up?
Basically, yes. Also honed the chambers and tuned some of the action springs. Not the hammer springs though, don't fuck with those. I sometimes get light strikes which I'm not certain if that's from hard primers or insufficient hammer force, might drop in some stainless steel firing pins as stoeger factory pins are known to be rather weak.
Also I wouldn't bother with .410, it's got a cool factor but it's nowhere near 20/12ga.

I love this picture for several reasons. It implies that the owner can't even fit all his guns into the picture, they're up on the dresser, they're on the floor, they're barely in the shot, etc. And it has a fucking flamethrower in it.
>>29868349
>It implies that the owner can't even fit all his guns into the picture
I couldn't, there are a few not in that one.
>>29868299
>There's a technique to it in using the natural tension in your unlocked arms to absorb and slow recoil rather than just holding it stout and unmoving, which is enjoyable.
same goes for this
as for 410, I just don't have patience for the ATF

Is that a bubba ROSS RIFLE?
My girls.
