Do you shoot? Your guns ...

Yea, I ve seen the gun, interesting concept the one of use the grooves to scatter the shot.

Never seen one of those before

The Rexio shotgun is sell in the U.S in .410 gauge/45 combination. Not yere, cuz the .410 is considerer too small.

I don’t own any guns, but the only ones I shot were the M16 A2 and the M9. I was close to reaching Expert on the M16, but missed by 3 shots. >< Darn gas mask…

And my newest one: ROMAK-3 or Cugir SSG 97 (or FPK in military use) - a romanian built, Dragunov-style designated marksman rifle. The system is more like that of the AKM, not like the one in the Dragunov. It is chambered in .308 Win.

The plastic-made magazine is quite fllimsy (one even broke away under my first shots) and during my first range-visit, I also lost my flashhider which went down the range for more than 55 meters. Anyway, it is a beauty. :mrgreen:

Jens

… and some more. Why are the pics are not shown properly in my post? Did I do something dumb? :confused:

After the whole Winnenden-discussion here, this will be my last gun for some time, I first have to see what is coming up on all legal gun-ownders over here.

Jens

Superb weapon as usual Flammpanzer.

I first have to see what is coming up on all legal gun-ownders over here.

Nothing harmful I hope.

Wow, everyone seems to have really impressive collections of firearms. I am deeply envious of you all.

I only have two rifles, which I use for target shooting.

Lee Enfield Rifle No4 in .303 calibre
This is one of the pieces made for the Commonwealth during WW2 in the USA by Savage Arms. The rifle is stamped ‘US Property’.

AFAIK, Australian forces did not use the No4 (preferring to stick with the SMLE Mk3) and this particular rifle was issued to NZ forces and then somehow made it’s way to Autralia later on. It is still in original condition, full wood, matching serial numbers, etc.

Omark Model 44 in .308 calibre
This is a single-shot Australian designed and made heavy barrelled target rifle - probably not very well known outside Australia. Actually, Omarks probably aren’t very well known even inside Australia. I will try to find and post a picture of an Omark.

Cheers

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen.

Wow … i have to say that some of you got a real armory at home! :smiley:

Let me show you mine [a collection of some pictures taken in a period of ~5 months] - please ask me if you want to use the pictures.

My rifle - No. 44605 G36A1

Shot during a maneuvre in the beautiful bavarian forrests [end 08]
The silver cap is the MPG for the maneuvre ammonition.

A bit frosty in the morning and a bit wet in the evening.
Here you can see the clip-together technique for our magazines. A very fine idea HK had there, but it leads to some ‘30-mag constructions’, if you understand what i mean …

I name that picture ‘A bavarian armory’ :stuck_out_tongue: [the green tube is the second-barrel container for the MG3]

And that’s how you should not treat weapons - well at least not our barbie-guns [also called designer rifles - i like the G3 better but the G36 has many positive aspects]

Holy mother that was a crazy weapon to use - the MP7A1 with standard Zeiss reflex optics.

Most recent pictures from a practice.

Some AK’s of East German Peoples Army pre-1985 production [see shoulder stock], a P38/P1 beside a Coke and a G36A1 [a ‘captured’ one in that scenario, that’S why it’s beside some of my groups weapons]. [all life weapons.]

That is he most ugly thing i have ever held in my hands - MAT Modele 1949 / MAT-49

Hope you like the pictures. :rolleyes:

Splinter,

Does the Bundeswehr still use the AK-74 for anything?

Hello Nickdfresh.

Until 1991 some units of the former NVA [peoples army of the GDR/DDR] used that rifle before they were equipped with our G3 rifles in various variants.

Nowadays we use different variants of that weapon [most of them are out of old NVA armorys] for deployment trainings like we FJg’s train extensively with the EAKKs program [all BW units do, but we train that together with our CRC programs].
I don’t know out of wich armorys some of the weapons come [hell, we even had a life PPSh41] but i think everything which can be found in ex-east german armorys is now used to simulate the weapons which are used e.g. in AStan, Africa etc.

We even use some uniforms for the OpFor or CoForces which are all totally different [some got arabic things written on them, some kyrilic writing and many are also out of NVA warehouses - i once weared a Wachregiment Friedrich Engels Uniform :P] and some typical ‘natives’ clothes for the deployment countries.

To your question in general: I counted around four different variants of AK-74 rifles [i was only looking for different shoulder stocks, so there could have been more different variants] we used in that deployment scenario.

There were also some very uncommon weapons i never saw before, like two very strange weapons, which looked like an AK in the back, but had the typical M16 frontal sigths … i got some pictures of those.

That’s all for giving our guys the best education and training possible.
I may not say here what we do exactly in our programs, but be sure that our programs are far superior to other nations deployment trainings i have seen so far [yes you may note some patriotism, but that’s because we really got very good programs].

Hope that solved your question :wink:

I know what you mean about the ‘30-mag constructions,’ I’ll have a scratch through my stuff for some photos of ‘experiments’ by bored troops. :smiley:
I was never keen on the clipped mags myself, purely because it makes pouches so much bigger.
By the way, I think H&K bought the idea from SIG, that connection system was in use on the Stgw90 prior to the G36.

Are you positive that’s a P1 there Splinter ?
It looks surprisingy like a CZ75 or clone thereof.

Hello Cuts.

When i looked at that weapon, it seemed to be a P38/P1, but you are right, from that angle it looks like that weapon you named [from what i can see via google] - but like said, there were some very strange weapons, so it could have been a somewhat modification or small series gun. [to my shame i have to say, that i only met that weapon during my bootcamp long time ago and now i only get the P8 handed out]

I attached a picture which shows nicely one of those weapons i could not name - it’s that M16-Kalash Mashup.

Perhaps someone could define the weapon, if it’s not a mix of different rifles.

Thank you.

Sincerly

Hi Splinter,

The photograph is very dark, (or perhaps it’s just my screen or eyes,) but as far as I can make out it looks like a version of the DDR/Romanian Stg940 family which are now produced in America as part of the Stg 2000 series.
If you can describe the wpn in more detail, eg what was the shape of the butt and did it have an optics rail, or post other pictures perhaps I can narrow it down a bit further.

Not too sure if I have posted these or not , this was my last purchase a few years back ,

And vid of one of my buddys He is currently deployed and shooting my M38

And also my M1 Garand

A nice picture of two great rifles in a moody atmosphere, Gutkowski!

And here are some other „guns“. Many outside Germany might consider them as “toys”, as they are only blank-firing (and gas-cartridge-firing) guns, which can be bought from the age of 18 and older. Anyway, they are dangerous and even deadly in some cases when fired at very close distances (under 1m).

Those little noise-makers are often used on new year`s eve to make some “Krach”. They can also fire differet sorts of gas-catrges likeCS, CN and pepper for self-defence-purposes. You can even fire small rockets with an attachable firing-device.

Some look quite similar to their real-steel opponents, like the nice Colt .38. following later.

… and more … the calibers vary from 6mm up to .45, but no real live cartridges can be loaded. This would be dangerous anyway, because most of the Schreckschusswaffen are made from weak metals like zink die cast. There are only a few built from steel, like the ERMA (!) EGR66X.

Jens

… and even more. I really like the cute NAA-style mini revolver, chambered in 6mm and .22. :mrgreen:

Jens

eGun Python 1.jpg

ERMA EGP 55 in 8mm. The vanished manufacturer ERMA (Erfurther Maschinenfabrik, based at Dachau after WW2) is/was more famous for it`s MP 40, I guess. :mrgreen:

Jens

Nice guns all of you guys have. The military ones are obviously really tough to top.

I these are my three guns at the moment:

1943 Savage Lee Enfield No4 Mk1*

30-06 Remington

1946 Soviet Russian SKS

I’ve actually been thinking about getting an MP40 Repro for a while now - but there’s two things stopping me from it: The costs (CAN$2,000)and the fact that I wouldn’t be able to keep it when I move back to Germany…

… and my latest: a .22 conversion unit (called “Kadet”) for my CZ 75 made by CZ - very accurate (even more than the “original” gun in 9mm luger).

Why would you want a .22 conversion? Price issues?

PS: BTW, you should have the later quote from the movie, too ^^:

“Wo sind denn die Pferde?” “Wir sind die Pferde!”
