Since I put one up in /ste/, why not one here? Certainly we need more weapons than they do.

Bonus points for weapons that are.
- Dirty, dusty, rusty, repaired.
- Modified by an amateur.
- Have been used in Post-Apocalyptic media.

Here's something rusty and decrepit enough to be post-apocalyptic. First one I've found actually, most weapon image searches turn up nice clean weapons.

While you could do it, with work...the affective range of the AK is something that anyone with half way decent vision, even close to the right prescription in glasses, and some training could do fine without a scope. They are only accurate for what...a couple hundred yards?
>> No. 55
Wouldn't that depend on how well made the ammo is and the operator?
>> No. 56
Not really. It's a matter of propellant. The bullets are only good for so much distance. Think of it this way. It doesn't matter how well made a football is. The distance it can be thrown is %90 the player throwing the ball.

The 7.62x39 round was made for urban combat, to provide a more effective round at closer ranges than the 7.62x51. It has less power. It has a 300 yard range, more or less, before bullet drop and so on make it almost completely inaccurate.

Maybe a scope would help at the extreme end of the range, sure. But for what the gun was designed for?

sad as it is to say, Russian designs are the way to go for things like assault riffles. There's more amo for it. The chance of any invading army ANYWHERE having 7.62 amo? Very very high.

but a shotgun? Now that's also a good thing to have. And the rounds are standard around the world, pretty much. Anywhere you go, you'll find a 12 gauge.

Common ammo isn't always a good thing.
Think about it.
SHTF, its TEOTWAWKI. Everyone starts looting the gun stores, grabbing 9mm, .45ACP, .357/.38SPL, .22LR, .223, .308, 7.62x39 and 54R, and of course the universal 12ga.

Meanwhile there are tons of .303, .30CAR, .224, etc. still sitting on the shelf.

Here's what I recommend. While 12ga is good, and everyone should own at least one 12ga shotgun - what are all those other rounds going to do when they're left on the shelf?

What everyone really needs, is a black powder gun (pic related).

This way you can grab a ton of ammo you maybe don't need once the common rounds have been looted. Empty out the powder. Melt down and press your own bullets. And make percussion caps out of the primers.

Ha ha! Firearms live on.

Also, reloading tools and a lead mold accomplish much the similar result, but eventually the brass cartridge WILL give out.
>> No. 106
While a black powder weapon is a good idea, *in fact, flintlocks are not a bad thing to consider, powder, stone, a ball, and a rag, all of which CAN be made if you have the right materials*

When I talk about commonly used amo, I'm more going from a "There's a massive war, people everywhere are killing each other with guns" scenario, where your trying to survive after world war three, and what's available are the leftover military ammo supplies. Being familiar with the firearms that shoot those bullets before the war, could save your life afterwards.

Really, don't LIMIT yourself. If you can't or do not desire to keep a large supply of assorted guns on hand, at the very least train with those belonging to others. Learn how to strip and repair common hand guns and riffles, how to load them quickly, and how different rounds behave differently.

The end of the world might not come with a war on your doorstep. But knowing how to survive if it does, is just as important as knowing how to grow food and hunt.

Also, caps from primers? I didn't know you could do that without destroying the primer. They seem a bit sensitive.

Your SHTF planning comes from a different kind of logic than mine apparently.
The specifics of what gun you use are irrelevant, what is relevant is your situation and your familiarity with it.

The situation however, specifically my plans for the post apocalypse and what you're finding to be useful are completely different. As soon as the SHTF, I'm out of civilization and off into the Rockies.
I don't really need to worry about scavenging ammo off of my fallen enemies, and having that ammo be a military or common caliber if I'm not having to constantly defend myself (which isn't to say I wouldn't constantly be on the defense).

For this I want something accurate and reliable, caliber or even type of action isn't as much of a concern to me.
I'd really love to have a 7.5x54mm French MAS-36. Sure it's an odd cartridge, but it's solid enough and I'm comfortable using one. And even though it comes in a .308/7.62x51mm variant, I prefer the ballistics of the original 7.5mm round.
I don't need some tacticool assault weapon with high capacity magazines to feel safe (not that the AK isn't still on my list) - I do need something that will take down a decently sized target in one shot from 200y away though.

It's not that I expect to be in the thick of things when shit goes south. In fact, I live as far from the thick of things as I can. I live thirty miles away from the closest real town.

The reason why I go for the common military rounds for at least ONE of my guns is because it will be everywhere. There will be stockpiles of the stuff, any scouts or groups coming through my area are likely to have at least some of the 7.62 on them.

That's not to say that it's the only gun that should be on hand....everything from .22 shorts to 45-70 will be useful. 30.06, .45, .357. Every gun you can get your hands on COULD be useful.

And that includes guns that fire less common ammunition, sure. But if you need to stock up on ammunition, more common ammo is cheaper if you are preparing for the future. I know one guy who has...I don't KNOW how many .22LR rounds. They work well enough, are cheep, and for small game up to a deer, they will work JUST fine.
>> No. 120

>But if you need to stock up on ammunition, more common ammo is cheaper if you are preparing for the future.

I don't agree with that.
.308 is a very common standardized NATO round, but it is not cheap. .223 is less expensive.
But regardless, if you're buying decent quality, the price is going to go up. .22LR is one of the few rounds where you don't worry about it...
...oh, and any form of Russian ammo.

I also don't see the point of buying 1000 rounds of cheap shit when I can buy 300 rounds of really really really good shit.
>> No. 121
Well yes. Some common ammo is expensive. Some is less so.

And the ammo you need in a given situation isn't always going to be top quality. A load with half the powder makes half the noise, and if that will do the job and not carry as far, sometimes it will be, in it's own way, superior.

If a .22 short will do the job you want it to do, and someone on the next hillside won't be able to point at you, where a 30.06 will also do an admirable job, will be audible from much further away.

Then again, there will be times when a better round with more powder, a better bullet, and better range will be essential.

we're arguing in circles. There both valid views, to my mind. And the best solution is to be able to access guns that take all sorts of ammunition.

That's even more expensive, however. And if you REALLY get into it, the whole "small armory" problem comes into affect.

Also, considering the the age and wear of the weapon, it seemed to fit in here better.

I actually have a great survival book called "Wilderess Evasion" which, when choosing a survival weapon, actually listed that rifle as being the worst possible choice.

Simply put, a .22LR will probably keep you alive a hell of a lot longer in the wilderness than some shoulder-mounted cannon.

Speaking of which, I absolutely love what this guy did with his Springfield M6. Wrapped the barrels in paracord, threw a knife on it, and has it ready to go.
Excellent survival rifle for when you need to be on the move.
>> No. 236
that is a seriously stripped down riffle. I'm not quite sure how comfortable that ..inch wide stock would be against your shoulder when fired.

That said...it should be really easy to carry all day every day.
>> No. 239
Actually, that's how it's made. It's meant to be folded and stowed in a small space, like the cockpit of a plane cockpit (which is what it was designed for).

But, sticking it in a backpack is also a really good idea because the rifle is incredibly small and lightweight, accurate, and 100% reliable.
It also uses two common forms of ammo: the 410ga shotgun shell (any size), and any size of .22 (including short and bb loads).

Sure, its not a combat weapon, its rounds aren't capable of waging war with motorcycle maniacs in the desert. But if you're a mountain man with no one else in sight, you haven't seen another human being for years, and need to go out and kill some small game?
I'd much rather have that than a Kalashnikov.

Actually a piece of shit. The stock screws start coming apart after firing, the recoil is excessive because the gun really doesn't have much structure, and trying to put the bipod/grip thing back together after you've popped it out is difficult (not to mention if you screw up, it takes a big chunk out of your hand).
>> No. 242
Huh. Thus the two barrels, I guess.

I do love .22. There a great, common use round. And a .22LR multi-shot riffle is all you really "need". You can hunt everything up to deer with it, and it can take down bears, If you know where to shoot.

The .410 makes me wonder though. It's not exactly the most common round. Those are the ones you can put in a .357 right?

I'm not sure Dra, but I know that taurus recently came out with a revolver that shoots .410/.45 ammo. I would just worry about putting different kinds of ammo in guns. Like you can put .32 S&W and .32 H&R Mag, through a Russian Nagant revolver, but it doesn't seal all the way and can cause loss of power and eventual damage to the gun.

I don't know how recent you think the Taurus Tracker/Judge revolver is, because the thing has been on the market for a few years now.

>>246

Some weapons are capable of that (like the above-mentioned Taurus revolver), however, I'm not sure if all .410ga barrels are capable of handling .45LC.
I'm pretty sure most barrels meant for .45LC will handle .410ga without a problem (don't quote me on that), but the cylinder or breach would have to be large enough (such as how the Taurus Tracker/Judge is more elongated than it needs to be).
>> No. 251
The judge was released in 07, so it's pretty new. I can't say the exact month, but gunblast reviewed it in July of 07.
>> No. 255
>>251

But the Judge itself is just a different variant of the Tracker with (I believe) a slightly longer cylinder allowing it to take an extra kind of .410ga shell.
So really I should have said that the .45LC/.410ga revolvers have been around for a while. And even though Taurus now call all the Trackers as Judges - the design is a bit older.
>> No. 259
What about weapons that don't use bullets?

When your in a gunfight with roaming bandits, or fighting of a wave of zombies, a semi-automatic rifle or pistol is the thing to have.

But what about when you need stealth, or you can't afford to waist a bullet you might need to defend yourself when hunting for game?

How many of you have a bow, a crossbow, maybe a blowgun, or even something as simple as a slingshot, stashed away with some ammo?

or even better...what about compressed air powered weapons? Sure, it wouldn't work for a human, but 20-30 PSI in a small pressure tank blown through a pipe will propel a small ball bearing fast enough to take out small animals, scare of predictors, and is completely re-usable.

20-30 psi? Uhm, most air rifles usually have 800-1500 psi. In 1804 I think even Lewis & Clark carried around an air rifle capable of those pressures.
Capable of laying a small lil projectiles down range and yeah, possibly could take out very small game (for rabbit or quail sizes).

However, air rifles are in no way silent. A properly charged air rifle is about as loud as a .22 short.

And as for bow-powered weapons, I mean...the lack of a firing rate limits their use in combat, obviously. For hunting - go for it though.

And in closing, silencers for firearms are ridiculously easy to make. I enclosed a few how-to PDFs in that rapidshare upload I made. Seen silencers made out of everything from automobile shock absorbers to Mag Lite flashlights. (pic related)
>> No. 262
As I said. For every day use. Not for combat.

And the entire goal isn't silent. A bow is a great option if you need to make a single silent shot. The air canon is not.

And i'm not talking factory made air riffles. I'm talking homemade small scale potato cannon. A pressure tank, a tube, and a small ball, or perhaps dart. There actually a lot more capable than you might think.

Most of them instruct you on how to do it for a .22LR, but the concept is the same for most silencers. With .22LR though, if you fuck up and something goes wrong, chances are you're not going to hurt yourself.

This is all very illegal in the US of course without proper authorization from the BATFE.

If only for the fact that they're tough as nails, made of good steel, and the Russians made 40,000,000 of them alone (not counting other countries).

I'm in the opinion that everyone should own at least one Mosin Nagant.

Personally, I still like the >>79 idea of taking a cheap M44 and just cutting it down into a pistol. A lot of the Nordic countries did that for the early part of the 20th century and well after WWII.

I think they used it as a headshot pistol for hunting and "fishing" though ("fishing" meaning seals and whale). Not to mention it'd make a handy lil sap.
>> No. 620

the russians do seem to do it better. just look at the AK rifles, they may not be as acurate but because they are made with higher tolerances you can treat the gun like shit (to a certain point) and still expect it to work.

What you say is partly true. Is the AK a superior weapon? Not individually. Point is, it's cheap and works under the worst conditions.
Compare it to the FN FAL though, albeit a battle rifle, it boasts close to the same reliability but has far superior accuracy and stopping power while still being reliable...it's just...in the class of the SVD Dragunov and the M-14/M1A.

Now I'm a huge AK fan, I think they're brilliant weapon, and very close to being the cat's balls. Are they the cat's balls though? Of course not.

Russian =/= perfection. But they have admirable traits suitable to our needs.

The AK is a good example, but the Mosin-Nagant is not.

The Mosin-Nagant was an OKAY rifle. Was the Mauser superior? The 1903? YES.
Point is, for how cheap the Mosins are, and for how numerous they are - they make a phenomenal weapon.

>>622

For a Russian and E-bloc Mosin, not at all hard to have matching serial numbers.
The Nordic countries...despite being of "superior quality" in their barrels, often swapped out parts. So a pure Finnish Mosin Nagant is a collector's item usually costing around $500...as opposed to an E-bloc one costing $100 and a Russian one costing $200-300.

Well...that and the fact that the revolver was meant to fire .22LR, so...you probably couldn't make that work without modding it for centerfire cartridges.
Not to mention that .308 would have absolutely no velocity (no confinement).

The Glock. Preferably in 9mm or .40SW. Not that I really believe the whole "exploding Glock" myth, but because I don't think .45ACP should be fired in a polymer frame gun.

Besides, if it can survive this...

While you don't specifically need a lathe for something simple like a Sten, it makes the production of firearms far easier.

What you do need however, for the barrel, is a reamer. It's VERY specific, and not easy to come by, especially when you live in a police state - since I'm assuming it would be a little suspicious to be buying barrels online.

As for the ammo. Take a trip over here, Czech Republic, make some Swiss friends, etc. Take all your brass home with you.
Alternatively, you guys can get blank firing replicas, right? Take the blanks, neck them, cast your bullets. Make sure they're centerfire though.

And await your friendly bobbies to swing by to pay you a visit for me giving you this advice, apparently the CCTV outside can see in through the window onto your computer, lol.

Ah, thanks.
I doubt it would be suspicious, when I get a lathe I will attach a drill to it, or get one pre-built, I don't think they're that hard to come by really.

I'm not too happy about hopping bullets over the border and I have no clue about where I can get blanks, a press and some powder.
>> No. 806
>>780

No no no, don't bring live rounds over the border, just bring the brass. Primers you can punch out yourself, though it's not easy. Bullets can of course be melted and cast.
The powder...the powder is a tough one. Your rounds won't have a lot of energy using homemade powder, but...better than a crossbow (which I also assume are banned).
As for the press...I think you're going to have to build your own, or see about getting a tiny little "lee loader".

More people have firearms in Britain than you think.

First off all there's all the old people that didn't hand in their weapons.

Second of all are farmers, it's much easier to get a shotgun license too, which is different to a firearms license.

Clay shooting

Hunters, generally rich people who usually have show pieces.

Then general shooting enthusiasts, there's few ranges here and there, often filled with weapons, there's also a gun shop in my smallish town.

There's an illegal trade here too, mostly pistols and they always mention home made weapons.

Oh and of course military/police.

I have no clue about crossbows being banned, I remember something about the church banning them along time ago, I think bows are pretty common in England too.

Thanks a lot for the advice bro, I've looked around on the Internet for buying lathes and they're cheaper than I thought, around £2k or less, I could get one later this year.
