I don't know what it is... but something tells me you individuals may not all like Winchester. Just a hunch though.
Meh, I got no problem with them, they're just a bit pricey for my tastes. Still noting compared to a Browning Citori/Cynergy though, I mean Christ, who'd pay $3500 for a modern 2-barreled shotgun, even with all those fancy engravings and lacquered wood?

Rather buy a modern one if it's gonna be 3000 bucks less.

IDK which company but it was very sweet.
Probably Stoeger
Gaucha from Brazil has a small Stainless Steel coachgun for sale at my store, in .410, may be that one?
Unfortunately, the guns from Brazil are not all that great in quality. If I had to buy one though, i would stick with Rossi. Taurus guns fall apart.
I had this drum magazine for my AK before I sold it (along with all of the magazines that I had for it as well), and it had this little twisty thing on it that would depressurize the magazine to prolong its life or something. It was very easy to use and wasn't a hassle at all, in fact I enjoyed that extra step in the routine. I'd like to buy another magazine that has something like that, even if just for the novelty. Does anybody know the actual terminology? I didn't want to fiddle with it too much so I assume it was built into the magazine.
Yesterday in Italy a man has been accused of keeping protected fauna captive (he had a hawk and a couple pythons in cages) and among the animals, they found a small, unregistered arsenal. Including a rifle made out of various garbage, including the leg of a garden bench as a stock. I'll try to find some pictures if I can. [editline]10th December 2011[/editline] [url=http://www.striscialanotizia.mediaset.it/video/videoextra.shtml?14213]Here's the video[/url], the weapons are towards the end. It includes a .22 rifle with a flashlight taped on (for maximum tacticool) and a homemade break-action shotgun held together with tape.

My order shipped! :dance:
Anyone in Arizona looking to sell anything off? I'm always looking for another piece to add to the collection!
Walther P99 ftw [editline]13th December 2011[/editline] Best magazine release ever, seriously.
Akdal M1919 anyone got one? Good? Bad? Thinking of it as a gift to myself... [url]http://centerfiresystems.com/MKA-1919.aspx[/url] link to one if you don't know what I'm talkin about.

[QUOTE=EagleEye;33704607]They look neat but I can't really say anything about it.[/QUOTE] That's pretty much why I'm looking at it, seems like a interesting alt. to a Saiga.
[QUOTE=SEKCobra;33703575]Walther P99 ftw [editline]13th December 2011[/editline] Best magazine release ever, seriously.[/QUOTE] I always loved the P99, wanted one as my first gun, and then I found out they're at least $1200 here... I was disappoint.
[QUOTE=Skullivan21;33643563]Marlin Model 60. Like the 795 but with a tube mag. Cost round $150.[/QUOTE] Bout that, I got a 30+ year old Model 60. Works great, cept the occasional jam.

Just a bit sliced up there.
[QUOTE=EvilSkydiver;33705401]All the Polizei here carry Walther P99's[/QUOTE] I'd expect they do, it is a German gun after all. [QUOTE=PrusseluskenV2;33706856]Just found this on my desktop, made it for a /k/ thread [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22107915/Die%20waffen/ar18.jpg[/img] How can someone design such an ugly rifle?[/QUOTE] Because the US army needed a new gun. I've actually heard that, contrary to apparently popular belief, the AR in AR-10/15 doesn't stand for Assault Rifle, but rather Armalite Rifle, after the company that made the design.

[QUOTE=jimhowl33t;33707289]Ugly? Except for the slanty lower receiver, it's a pretty neat gun.[/QUOTE] The stock's color doesn't match the color of the handguard.
When did plastic have to match?
[QUOTE=PrusseluskenV2;33707854]It's so.. awkward looking. The grip, slanted receiver, ugly charging handle, receiver end, how the stock isn't aligned with the barrel..[/QUOTE] Yes, God forbid it doesn't have wood all over it and can be made in a garage with a chisel, saw, and soldering iron like your glorious Combloc weapons.
[QUOTE=EvilSkydiver;33705401]All the Polizei here carry Walther P99's[/QUOTE] No they dont, stop watching stupid TV. Germany has a higher ratio of glock 17s than we do.
[QUOTE=PrusseluskenV2;33708847]Totally related. The Mosin Nagant is a piss ugly rifle and I never implied otherwise. Pretty much all combloc weapons are ugly, but they do their intended job well.[/QUOTE] I'd be inclined to disagree that they look ugly, personally, though I do think some of the Japanese guns and the German pistols, the Luger and P36, look ugly, because I don't like the barrel jutting out from the rest of the gun.
[QUOTE=PrusseluskenV2;33708947]What? Judging by his post's Flagdog he's in Germany. Why are you talking about Germans carrying Glocks compared to what Austrian fuzz are using if he's seeing German Polizei carrying P99s?[/QUOTE] German police barely uses P99s, he just watches great german TV too muck, Semi Gerkan and Michael Mohr carry P99s there
