This was buried underground for a long time.
Salvageable?
>>30318373
What, to shoot?
Nope.
>>30318373
gotta check the bore
>>30318373
maybe if you melt it down and make another gun out of it
is it yours OP?
If so, maybe. a very feable maybe. depends upon the internals and how much time/effort youre willing to put in. I'd legit buy it off you to try if I could.
nice find
found this last summer deep in a very old looking woods
It's a medieval mace head, cracked, probably during battle too.
>>30318373
just rub some cosmoline on it, it'll be good as new
>>30318387
>>30318373
I'm kinda envious of you Euros sometimes
>>30318373
Maybe.
>>30318376
So is it worth anything?
>>30318373
jesus fucking christ
>>30318373
electrolysis would probably clean it up pretty nice.
>>30318392
kinda. not sure how much its worth, but there are people who buy that kind of thing.
you know, the more I look at it, the more I think its mostly surface rust.
can we get a picture of the internals, the slide and hammer if you cant move anything, and also it after youve brushed off a lot of that dirt and flakey shit.
>>30318400
there is alsow a holster and some ammo
>>30318413
I bet you're too much of a pussy to shoot that ammo
>take VERY FINE AND SOFT brush and get off all the dirt and shit
>see if anything has any play in it (slide, hammer, etc)
>if yes then try to salvage
>microfiber rag with gun oil
>scrub lovingly but not hard
>check again
>post pics throughout process
>have other anons advise you cause this is the best i got
>>30318373
Run some 30 grit sandpaper on it.
>>30318419
Let's not do that again
>>30318387
All I find are shitty arrowheads.
Damn whiskeyniggers couldn't into metallurgy, so I can't find anything cool.
>>30318418
Thx for advice
>>30318440
>>30318392
>>30318413
those look fantastic
I love stuff like this.
again , nice find and thanks for sharing.
>>30318390
are you in the US?
no way man, my friend shows me the stuff he finds in US with his metal detector.
golden jewely with precious gems, silver coins, christ my jaw dropped when he showed me his collection
I never find any gold or expensive jewelry here
Im restoring a far more rusted out mauser 95 currently.
you have three options
1.look into selling it as junk to a collector (dumb)
2. restore it carefully
3.get it working knowing its allready fugly and theres little you can do to make it worse.
invest in some 3in1 oil, some kind of light rust removing solution, 0000 steel wool and some copper wool, some copper/brass/not steel brushes, and some rags.
then you spend a few weeks soaking and scrubbing while listening to ww2 marches.
if you want, I know theres a kommando with a youtube channel here that can explain how to set up an electrolysis machine with a car battery and a chunk of plate steel i think.
I went the brush route since I dont have an extra car battery, chunk of plate, or tub big enough to lay a mauser flat in.
>>30318440
Very interesting find anon. At the very worst, collectors and museums would be interested if you clean all that stuff well enough. Which country do you come from if I may ask ?
>>30318440
those magazines look fucked but I bet the gunpowder in the bullets are still good
>>30318465
>Magazines
>>30318373
Call me crazy but if i think i could save this gun and make it shot
>>30318457
Huh, not op but I finished with a Mauser 92 myself.
Sure it was surface rust but yeah, it's going to not going to look pretty after you are done restoring it.
I used 0000 steel wool, but the synthetic and a water based rust remover myself.
The steel wool was for the last bit of removal, I spent the whole day with q-tips and the rust remover, then oiled everything the remover touched using the wool, like you said, very fucking lightly.
Cum in it, OP
It will be fine
Do you have stores that sell those massive jugs of wd-40 rust remover?
Bathe that poor thing for a week,
>>30318456
most of the US is empty and you will find jack shit.
every field in europe has 3-5000 years worth of shit to find. Romans, tribal shot, dark ages, medieval ages, napolionic, ww1, ww2, etc.
We have non metalic indian shit, and beer cans. If you live on the east coast/south you can find civil war shit and moonshiner junk. but otherwise its all beer cans and lawn chairs from the 70's.
>>30318457
Ok i will try option 2 - sounds reasonable. Thx for the information.
>>30318460
I think that museums are out of the question. I live somewhere in middle europe
>>30318390
Don't be. It's not worth living in a shithole with all these cucks who think guns are scary.
>>30318392
thats actually not too bad, use electrolysis and you might be able to restore it
>>30318414
You think this >>30318440 looks ok to shoot?
>>30318503
Only problem is he would have to make it himself.
>>30318504
the gun not the ammo you cock.
>>30318504
HELL NO.
>>30318503
What matters is the condition inside.
if everything is corroded and rotted together then no, it's just a junk or you can hang on your wall and brag how your Polish partizan grandfather tore off a nazi's head with his bare hands and looted that off him.
>>30318373
Sandblast it and paint it to look like a /mlp/ gun.
>>30318508
how is that a problem? if he is smart enough to use a metal detector and dig a hole in teh ground he can use electrolysis. it's infinitely easier than just scrubbing, and if you can plug a cell charger in the wall you are halfway there
>>30318533
Well he is still a Brit, so...
Me might find a way to blow up the queen or something.
>>30318373
looks rather good
may be shootable if cleaned
did you already check if it´s loaded?
also, pls show the other side of the pistol
>>30318539
i suppose so, no doubt his cuck neighbors will probably call the bobbies if they see him and his whole block will be evacuated while they safely detonate the possible bomb making materials according to the constables orders
still, if he's feeling ballsy enough, all he needs to buy is sodium carbonate at the grocery mart without getting on a terrorist watchlist
https://youtu.be/Tm4y2-73hYs
>>30318427
Okay, 1 grit
>>30318560
All he needs to do is scream Muslim sounding words as he purchases and everyone will be too scared to call the bobbies.
Op here im off to try and restore the gun.
I will try to use electrolysis.
Maybe in some future i will post pics how it went.
>>30318543
>check if its loaded
oh lawdy OP gonna get a "tetanus shot"
>>30318580
how deep in the ground was it?
>>30318465
those actually ARE clips bud
Buy a bunch of ballistol, pour it in a bucket, drop the gun in the bucket and wait six or seven minutes. It'll come out good as new A++
>>30318465
>Too much /k/
>The post
>>30318373
Very salvgeable.
Honestly looks pretty good, considering.
You should literally bathe it in oil to get all the crap off to start with.
Then start disassembling it down it its basic parts.
Use electrolysis to help remove the rust on each part once you have it broken down.
>>30318582
It probably is loaded, I doubt it would fire though the powder should be fairly inactivated after all this time.
Still filling it with WD40 for a day might do some good from a safety aspect.
OP under no circumstances should you point the gun at someone or yourself, the gun is in surprisingly good condition, its unlikely but possible it could fire.
>>30318580
Yes please! Would love to see that project!
>>30318724
>>30318734
Also those
>>30318440
Shoot it coward

You're not John Moses Browning, he died in 1926. You're an impostor.
What country, OP? Fucking jealous, not much to find where I live.
>>30318566
Just get some non white minority friend to buy it for him. Everyone will be to scared to risk possible offence.
>>30318440
How much are the clips worth?
>>30318746
>You're not John Moses Browning, he died in 1926.
OR DID HE
>>30318805
bout tree fiddy.
Op remove the grips and soak the whole thing in rust remover for a few days, then attempt to disassemble.
>>30318440
Keep the clips throw away the rounds
>>30318437
I've seen some impressive arrowhead collections in my time anon.
all I ever found was someone's dental work.
>>30318746

I'm in northern Oklahoma, so I also find a religious amount of fossils too. I can go out and dig and find shells, and petrified wood all the time.
I actually have a fossil of some fern I found when I was little somewhere.
Posted gun was found in Wałbrzych, Poland and soon after was secured by police.

I wonder if this thread is how our officers are doing their "research".
OP the /k/ube has given you the mission to save one of his lost children, you have to restore this old beauty
>>30319119
>It is now time to explain the matter, because the act probably see that respectable man what is reported discovery for a few minutes was the owner of an illegal weapon. It is therefore necessary to have an expert opinion, to interview all the witnesses to determine what is quite obvious. I do not want to be a bad soothsayer, but you find that reported for some time will be very sorry this matter. It will be summoned, interrogated, a very short time, comes to the conclusion that it makes no sense calling the police, it was better to leave the box in the ground.
Wow he can be charged for possession of an illegal weapon lol
>>30318437
I don't have a pic but I found 2 Kaskaskia points. They were arrowheads that were Indians got ahold of iron and flattened it and rolled them into cones for the end of arrow shafts.
>>30319159
Welcome to Eurocucklandia, enjoy your ebony love making.
>>30318491
The 1970s were a hell of a time, huh?
>>30318373
Rinse off all the dirt, take a new pic, then come back.
It'll be rusty no doubt but a lot of that's just dirt.
>>30318414
I would estimate that there is about 99% probability that the ammo would not work anyway anymore, even if it would have been properly stored instead of this.
Ammo box marking indicate that it has Sinoxid-primers, which were all the rage in 1930's. They were one of the first (if not the first?) commercially successful non-corrosive primers, but also usually go dud after not so many decades.
>>30318390
Why?

Quality 'I don't know anything about a country outside of what I've read on 4chan' batter you've got going there but...who says he's British? Other people speak English you know.
>>30318373
It'll probably never shoot again (can you even buy repair parts for Mausers?), but you could run it through electrolysis and buy new grips to restore it and make it look pretty again. It'll be a lot of work though.
>>30318373
Clean it up and have a gunsmith check for fractures or seriously deep pitting.
if after it's cleaned a bit and the internals still work. it'll probably shoot.
>>30318457
Restoring a broomhandle? Please, tell me where I can get a barrel assembly. An "upper," if you will.
It's kind of incredible that we've "explored" essentially everything on the planet and live in this modern age with satellites and what not but you can just walk into a forest in Europe, dig around long enough and find something old as fuck.
>>30320964
>It's kind of incredible
it's kinda not.
once the wars were over, trenches and foxholes and shit just get buried.
It's inevitable to find something.
>>30321091
Not just war related things, anything really.
>>30318390
Don't be. If the goverment hears this nazi has a rust modded baby killing assault executer pistol or this other guy has a brain crushing death swinger there will be a SWAT team kicking down their door.
>>30320782
The guy already said he came from some eastern european country.
That and if there's one country where you're not going to find German relics like these underground, it's the UK.
>>30321156
Don't be stupid
>>30318373
>>30318392
Pitting looks superficial on the outside, but I'd check the bore to see how bad it is.
An ultrasonic bath in a weak acid can probably remove the rust (along with the finish though).
If anything inside is seized, you could try penetrating oil. If it can be taken apart, it might be salvageable (probably not as a shooter though).
Ideally, have a competent gunsmith (not an "I built my own AR so I'm a gunsmith" gunsmith) go over it and let you know if /what can be done.
It'll take quite a bit of work to get it looking good and to get the action moving properly (not necessarily working or being safe to fire).
>>30318429
>>30318440
Ammo's toast though.
>>30318373
Have a buddy who found a 30s 1911 buried while doing construction work. Was rusted to hell and chemical pitted by tree roots that had grown around it, we restored with just brushes and rust rover and patience, it's in shooting condition now and buddy's night stand gun.
>>30319159
shut up faggot
>>30321561
I live in Europe. Believe me, shit like this happens.
>>30318373
You didn't find this, some fuck in eastern europe did and then turned it into the police
>>30321885
You think I don't live in Europe? Never heard of this.

>>30318440
The middle bullet of the middle clip looks OK.
Just load that one and try to fire.
>>30322205
>heavy artillery shells
I think this is a little different than what is in the OP but yeah, pretty awful to read
>>30320837
no, not a broomhandle, a chilean mauser 95.
i dont think you can find spare barrel assemblies for broomhandles.
>>30321561
They kick in your door now for saying muslims are a problem.
>>30318373
>>30318418

If this is a real restoration attempt then I am excited.
>>30323013
I've been shitting on sandniggers almost every day, no one has kicked my door in. Let's hope it stays that way.
>>30323386
What country are you posting from, Anon?
Holy shit you people are autists. Have none of you ever fixed up a rusty gun before?
Disassemble as far as you can and then hit it with some penetrating oil. Once youve gotten it fully disassembled/as disassembled as possible, give it a little electrolysis treatment. It'll definitely have some pitting, but unless the bore is just gone you can almost certainly get it to shooting condition with a bit of work and a couple replaced springs.
All of you faggots complaining about it not being able to fire should watch this video series, this guy took a fucking 1911 found on an old bootlegging road innawoods and made it fire again:
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCC8AF94AC0F4311A
>>30324377
And to add on to my point, I have a Chinese SKS (M21 code, 1963 production. If some of you /k/ommandos are on Gunboards, then you probably saw it on there.) that I bought as a trigger group, barreled action, gas tube, bolt, and cover. I cleaned off a lot of the rust, put it in a spare Russian stock set I had, got a blade bayonet for it, got a magazine, and it shoots just fine. The only bits the rust fucked up were the receiver cover and the front sight. Aside from that it functions great, shoots great, and most of all had a great bore in it. I use it for my innawoods rifle basically.

If I recall correctly, one of the problems with industrial lasers is that you don't typically feel it if you get hit by them.
The nerve endings just don't have long enough to work, the first clue is the smell of burning flesh.

lots of mirrors, attach to plane, make a few low passes over ISIS territory and have haji bbq.
Make a few passes over Berlin, Stockholm and London for good measure.
