Anyone know where I can buy old rusted guns for cheap? I restored an old Winchester a year or so back and now that I've got the time I'd like another summer project.

Seconding this
Pics of the restoration?
>>29928063
Thirding this for broken smith and Wessons. I'm dying to to another smith restoration.

Its in the op. That's after resto
Speaking of old guns, what are common breakage parts on pistols? For example, if I had a p38, p-08, or maybe an old 1911. What spare parts should I have on hand? I figure all springs, a recoil guide rod, and a spare hammer. What else?
>>29928248
Sorry I got a new phone since then and lost the pics, and i also sold the gun. but I will tell you it looked a fucking lot better than when I got it.
I only have success in pawn shops, rarely I'll find half a break open or musket in an antique store.
Bumping like the other 3
>MFW my local gun store has a bargain barrel filled with shit like that for < $50
>How about a fully functioning New England 12 gauge single shotgun for $30 and all it needs is a $20 stock.
Gunbroker, search "rusty" "needs repair", "gunsmith special" or similar, generally good results

Hi guys, new gun owner here.
I wanted to know how /k/ felt about lasers on handguns? Are they a meme accessory? My friend recently got one for his SW.
>>29930034
I'd say that their main use would be for low light self defense situations. And yet every time I see one on a gun, I think less of the person as a firearm owner. Usually because the person who owns one knows little about firearms and got it because it's tacticool.
>>29930034
They can be very useful, not necessarily in low light but when your shooting position or posture is compromised. A lot of things can happen in a gunfight and not being able to use your sights very effectively is certainly a possibility.
I would advise a light/laser combo. Green lasers are definitely preferable to red, they provide better contrast and the human eye tends to be able to spot them faster.
Does anyone know if those funnel/krinkov/conical muzzle breaks are made in 5.56 for ARs?
>>29928685
There is a guy selling cz75s for 300 and cz83s for 200, just search ugly guns
>>29930034
Dumb, people get them to try and make up for a lack of shooting skills. Like 3 people at my CHL class had them and on the shooting portion of the test, they barely passed even with lasers
Are there any rifles( so not a sten) commonly available that have side loading magazines? When I say commonly available I mean not shit like the FG-42, despite how hot it is.
>>29930034
I have a S&W 642 that I put CT laser grips on. The pistol has a very short sight radius and accurate shooting past 20 feet is iffy. I'm a reasonably good shooter and the main reason I got a laser for it is because it's my carry gun and I figure if painting some asshole with a laser is enough to make him turn and run I'm OK with that. Not that I feel sorry for the piece of shit but I don't need the legal hassle.
does wearing a plate carrier over a gorka defeat the purpose of a gorka? To me it looks like the four front pockets would be blocked off by the carrier, but I dunno.
I'm not gonna beat around the bush here, /k/.
I'm a fucking manlet. 5'6", 125 pounds, definitely a light weight. I'm also a bit jumpy when it comes to loud noises but otherwise quite chill.
I can handle .22 lr just dandy, but I tried to fire a .270 the other day and the recoil made me jolt. Is there a rifle caliber larger than .22 lr that won't make me shit my pants but will drop anything deer-sized?
>>29934024
243 (more common here) or 257 Roberts for 2 calibers that are light recoiling but more than adequate for proper deer hunting
maybe even 22-250 depending upon your hunting regs
Seriously though, manlet or not, unless you've had shoulder/back surgergy, if you can't handle 270 recoil, you're doing something wrong.
>>29928680
WHERE
>>29934116
I'm kinda new to guns in general, so maybe I didn't hold the rifle right, I dunno.
>>29928680
Nigga, you cannot drop that kind of shit and not say at least what town the store is in.
Vepr or PTR-91?
>>29934339
PTR get dos 3 dollar waffle mags, mang. Also don't need to bother wondering if your supply is going to get cut by some import cuckholdry
>>29928680
Nigger tell us where the goddamn store is
is 1650 a good price to pay for an AUG M1 with no optic and only one mag
