Had a fun day out with my handgonne. I get 9 inch groups with it at 10 yards but that's firing from the hip. If I could properly aim with both hands and have a friend light it off then I'd probably get it to reach further out.

On the topic of matchlocks, I'm also looking forwards to the release of the Italian Brixia/Investarms muskets that were announced a while back.

Up until their announcement, the only matchlocks available that weren't original antiques were kit builds or Pajeet-made shitsticks.
A lot of people swear by Indian muzzleloader reproductions and I know on paper that even shit quality modern Indian steel probably surpasses the strength of historical musket barrels but this is the street view pin of the address that they're manufactured.

Unfathomably based. Have you read the books? They're really damn good.

Didn't Stellar Jockeys bend the knee to some tranny faggotry a few years back? I remember some drama about the head dev being a heckin' chud and getting the boot. Doesn't inspire much confidence in Brigador Killers.

They did, but I have a feeling it was mostly performative. The writer of the books, Brad Buckmaster, posts anti immigration and anti left rhetoric on his Twitter and they still associate with and published the second book a few months ago.

Plus the studio head that was under fire for the anti tranny stuff is the brother of the other studio head. He is still listed as staff on the stellar jockeys website.

I really want one of these, I know they have been on sale for a bit but I can never commit. I know they also have a hand mortar but I think they have been out of stock. One day....

My "compromise" with the NFA shit is to just treat suppressors as firearms and when you're buying through a dealer you fill out a 4473. I still feel we're losing on that, though. Deregulating SBS/SBR feels like a walk in the park and still nobody is touching that. I can't see full auto being deregulated in my lifetime, that's for sure.

A lot of people swear by Indian muzzleloader reproductions and I know on paper that even shit quality modern Indian steel probably surpasses the strength of historical musket barrels but this is the street view pin of the address that they're manufactured.

I agree that they are satisfactory in quality, Indians have made muzzleloaders, both muskets and rifles, for centuries and they've only gotten better because there's less guesswork and hammering involved.

On the topic of matchlocks

You reminded me of how the last time I went to a military collector show there were a bunch of Tanegashima (had to look that up) guns for sale, I didn't buy one because I know fuck all about them and their value however they looked pretty old (if they were repros they were made a while ago). It was strange to me because the only other guns I usually saw for sale at that show were either trapdoor Springfields or old ball and cap revolvers.
(Pic of a gun similar to the ones I saw)

Miroku used to make reproduction Tanegashimas a while back that were imported via Dixie Gun Works but they don’t make them anymore.

While I know you’re right, I’ve seen enough videos of Indian street food that if I bought an Indian muzzleloader I’d be having constant mental images of some shirtless Jeet in sandals rubbing the stock under his armpit as a wood stain or something.

Essentially all Indian industry looks trash from the outside, but they at least have a modicum of standards. A step above Darra Adam Khel minus the cultural pride. I would still wipe it down with rubbing alcohol after I received it though, don't get me wrong.

as far as kit builds go the plain matchlock is probably the easiest in terms of wood working. its very simple.

 

[StyxHexenHamster1350]

the only time a revolver has jammed on me was with my GP-100 when i shot about 2,000 rounds of dirty, cheap .38 special in about two weeks. the stainless cylinder was fully black with soot and it had accumulated enough under the extractor star that the cylinder would not rotate. was back running after a quick spray of cleaner and a brush.

A Colt 1860 totally caked with BP residue was my first revolver jam. Couldn't even pull the hammer back due to the cylinder being stuck. That counts as a jam, right?

 

[biglurker]

I have mixed feelings on what's going on right now with the suppressor bill. While obviously it's best to get them off the nfa, I am pessimistic about that actually passing. The goal to make them have no fee is a small step, but it's hard to swallow. It could end up hurting the effort to kill the NFA in the future because "well you don't need to pay $200 anymore." (Manufacturers still have a $200 fee under the new change. Just not transfers) But also "why are we making the government spend all this money processing these and they aren't even paying $200 anymore?"

The short act also was just completely killed entirely

I can see the arguments and reasons why for both and I want the NFA gone too, but I wonder if this moment is simply tossing a small victory out for more years of no movement and alienating people in Congress who are trying to do something. The idea these rinos will be primaried and lose to a super pro 2A person is very optimistic.

They could do so much, but its obvious the faggots involved don't have the balls to rock the boat like liberals do. If they must keep it a """tax""" then they can make it one that does not require autistic government registry.
The fact that SBRs and SBSs are also facing zero change just screams fudd to me. Boomers think short barrel = SUPER WEAPON. There is literally no justification for it in the modern age, especially when the NFA can be bypassed with "pistols" and "firearms" for both categories. Both should be the first items to be taken off the registry. If they love the NFA so much, at least also re-open the machine gun registry.

Still, $0.00 is better than nothing, and opens the door for harder pushes. If congressmen are going to be pussy faggots, the 2A community might as well keep pushing them like the gay community did. The trick is to never be happy and push the envelope after even the smallest victory.

 

[DocAwe]

It's about all we can do is to keep trying to kick them in the dick.

I usually include a line about supporting their opponent in the primary.

I don't know if it works but I'm directly threatening their wallet with that line.

 

[Falcos_Commisar]

Beretta does all right for what it's worth. They've got:

• Sako
• Tikka
• Stoeger
• Chapius
• Benelli
• Franchi
• Uberti
• Holland & Holland
• Stiener
• Burris

Hell I didn't realize they owned Burris for 20+ years at this point.

Unfathomably based. Have you read the books? They're really damn good.

I just got them

It's okay, instead of $800 you can buy literally the same gun from a boomer for $3,000.

Ahaha exactly.

Biblically accurate lol. Imagine not being able to hit up your local and friendly UPS to get something notarized.

Yeah. It's a tiny sliver of red meat vs getting suppressors off nfa entirely and making them as cheap as they're supposed to be.

The kind of cockblock "Oh we'll lower the fee to $5" presents is the guarantee that any further attempts will be quashed by reasoning of them already having done something, as if it's throwing us a bone.
$200 is not a significant amount anymore, the argument the entire time was that you have to be fingerprinted and put on a database for shit based upon an honor system. On top of that, so many people have multiple cans and with those numbers it depletes the usefulness as a crimesolving resource, not to mention that in the most violent areas nobody gives a shit about making noise because that's part of the point.

They have no excuse anymore, poachers use bows and bait now.

Yep. Modern crossbows are stupid easy to use and make no noise.

Yeah, it's just a mess. There's so many things you could do to make it less of a hassle if you are going to cuck out than just $200 being $0. I guess the only thing I would think is if this is passed as a compromise it at least signals it's feasible to attack the NFA and may encourage others to view more changes as feasible and not a losing battle. Trying to be optimistic.

Yeah me too but still....

Hark villien mine handgonne cometh as you rock a bond NATO

That matchlock looks awesome. That plus the flintlock kits mean you get to have ~250 years of firearm innovation on one gun safe

I want one. An Indian made muzzleloader using honest black powder should be A ok. They can make decent steel and NGL a lot more Indians than you'd think use muzzleloaders because afaik they are a LOT more legal than any breechloading firearm in the country.

@F-16 Viper Yeah I picked them up as well. Didn't know there were books.

These zoomahs don't realize you can get an M1 Garand with a new receiver and send it in to Fulton Armory for a full set of new parts that costs less than what the boomahs at gun shows charge you for a Rack-grade

Silencer Central may have gotten caught doing a little regulatory capture.

You can take a look for yourself on the Senate's lobbying disclosure website: Here

My initial look through, I mostly see stuff regarding the regulatory burden placed on businesses, but not the end user, along with some generic land conservation. However, there are two in particular that I find interesting, the one filed by Natural Resource Results LLC on 7/5/22,


and the most recent one filed by RBW GROUP, LLC.



From reading the other filings, these fields seem to be in general pretty vague. "Support sound suppressor policies" could mean either changing them or "supporting" the status quo. Does "Regulation of suppressor purchases" mean they are lobbying about that subject in support of change, or that they support "regulation of suppressor purchases"?

I'm hoping that they aren't actually doing this, of course. But if they really are lobbying to stop legislation like the HPA they should be boycotted IMO.

"Ah no whut ah got Sonny!"

Fuck the Boomers, I can't wait til they start dropping like flies.

I'm gonna pick up a Boomer's Garand for Two Fitty at an estate auction.

Awesome! Let me know if you guys liked them, the second book was my personal favorite. It went to some dark places.

Thread tax:
Anyone carry a Glock 48? I'm interested in getting a slimline Glock for the summer months where I live. Does it conceal pretty well? Does it shoot like a slightly snappy 19?

I don't carry nor own one because I hate stock Glock ergonomics. That being said, just about everything I've heard about the G48 is that it's halfway between a Glock 19 and 43X in terms of recoil. About as concealable as the 43X, barrel/slide length doesn't matter much in terms of concealment.

you're supposed to lube the arbor pin before firing. eliminates that issue.

 

[Blasterisk]

What's the difference between the various makes of Desert Eagle? I don't mean the ridiculous amount of rebranded CZ75s or whatever, but between IMI, IWI, and Magnum Research (or are there more?) what differences are there, and which is the best?

I noticed that newer models seem to accumulate more and more picatinny rails, but I wouldn't dare assume the variances stop there.
