Got guns?

That's neat. Around $250 is not too bad for a setup like that.

I missed out on some good gun deals two weeks ago. The local pawn shop got wrecked in the hurricane, and they sold off all the guns one morning. For the last 3 years I've had better control of my gun buying habit. So he didn't call me to let me know. About half price of normal pawn shop prices.

I came across this just now, never heard of one or could find one that was auctioned. Love those Soviets and their weaponry. This was their survival gun TP-82 Cosmonaut survival pistol



"This three-barreled "pistol" was equipped with two 32 gauge shotgun barrels above a single 5.45x39mm rifle barrel. What made this survival gun even more interesting is that it came with a detachable shoulder stock that was actually a machete in its own canvas sheath"

Looks like something you would see on Doctor Who.

I had one, eventually gave to my brother-in-law. It was a fun little thing, fairly accurate for short ranges. It wasn't as good as purpose built .22 rifle.My biggest objection was it was too light and toy-like, and esp. for non-gunnies it was difficult to remember that it is indeed a real gun and can kill you.

Edit: Mine was a Charter Arms

Because you never know what foe you may face in space!

Didn't they also make that stowable, floating AR-7 "survival gun"?
The mags/ feed sucks for a survival gun, get damaged easy. Really picky over ammo also with the blowback design. Shot a few, not bad for accuracy or trigger, but put it back on the rack twice.
I have an H&R in 22lr that looks like the Targeter. Has the 7 round clip. I can't remember the name, but has a chipmunk or something like that on the stock. She is plunker for sure.
Those H&R .22 are nice training rifles. Bolt action teaches patience and accuracy.
I lost my patience with groundhogs, and was waiting for the buggers to come out of hibernation...Ruger 10/22.

If you like that, you'll love this.20181229_180634.jpg 20181229_180711.jpg 20181229_180813.jpg 20181229_180828.jpg
This is a drilling, based on a WW2 Luftwaffe survival gun. Unbelievable workmanship, 2x 16ga upper, 7×57Rmm Mauser lower with a .22mag insert that goes in. The little switch on the top turns it from shotgun to rifle, even has a pop up rear sight that flips up out of the rail. All hand crafted by JP Saur & Sohn.
Wooden fore grip pops off, and folds down in 2 parts in seconds.

Nice drilling- mine's a bit older & not nearly as fancy

Wow! That is just an amazing firearm. What does it shoot?
Does it go to a 2 step trigger when you switch over to rifle? I can't see the control switch, but looks like a pop up rear sight. Nice! I saw your Tommygun, that was a masterpiece.

The top tang lever selects the rifle barrel which is fired by the right hammer and front trigger which is also an adjustable single-set trigger- you push forward on it until it clicks. The lever under the triggerguard opens the breech. The barrels are Krupp "fluss stahl" and the gun is an Austrian "guild gun"

Guns are for pussies!
That said... yeah I have em! A defender, a stagecoach gun, some handies and a 22 and some hunting shooters.
Not allowed to shoot people in my country though. But I’d have to take that into serious consideration if someone threatened our safety?

We need special permits just to own a hand gun! Can’t legally shoot em unless it’s at a range. Kinda a waste actually. Look good in a safe I guess.

It was "souvenired" in WWII by a friend of my grandpa's named Walt Sauer who was in Patton's army
My father gave it to me in ~1974
My grandpa also had a vierling which was highly engraved

Ah, drilling trigger confusion...I always need to sit and do the drill to familiarize myself with that firearm. Mine has the rear trigger as the set trigger, front fires either way.

I had to look that cartidge up, that's an old time Safari round.
I've only seen 1 vierling in use. Every other one was in museums or at those custom gunsmiths in Germany, all gold and silver engraving.

Russian hero Alex Leonov rocket fucked up and he crashed in a forest in Siberia for days in the snow and was hassled by bears and wolves
the shitty 9mm pistol kept freezing and grossly underpowered, so the brains came up with this piece of crap,
suppose its better than the spear gun and shark smoke dye the 'free west?' got

shark smoke dye
I think the Shark repellent dye turned out to lure sharks and enemy patrols.
They turn an Olympic sized pool lime green in seconds, kids were given expired ones or you could buy them cheap at Surplus stores
We used to toss them in the private Country Club pools. Ruin their 4th of July party every year, no way you can flush that in 12 hrs. No way they could stop us from deploying. :mrgreen:

Shark repellent has come a long way - it really works now.'

Com'on guys, you know you'd be lyin' if you didn't want one of these. Only $3200 :shock:
That's not the Tesla model, that one is real. I just can't think of anywhere i could use it other than a new hobby, like pirating.

You gotta love this step in the instructions, because your lawyer will ask you twice.
