and promptly put these grips on it.

Okay, it's not a 1911, but still.

I have to admit, I still love every loving gun from that movie. It is still a guilty pleasure for me.

Anyone's who's shot a 1903 knows how useless the stock sights are.


I actually have a nickel plated 1903 and I think this one is terrible.

You'd think war would be more interesting with living ammunition, but no...



yea but that has something added that I wouldn't have used on the animal ordnance- parachutes. Unless they are monkey/ape paratroopers. that poo poo would rule.

anybody know what the terminal velocity of an elephant is? and then, how much force would they hit with?

African.

On paratrooper monkeys- I had heard the climbing canopies before. I think training might alleviate that.

I don't remember how much the Holocaust was covered in my history classes- I didn't pay attention to them because I read so much history on my own, and never had to pay attention to get good grades in History class.

One of the most interesting Holocaust teaching tools was something my English teacher did in 8th grade. Our homework each night was to write 3 coloumns of names on a sheet of loose leaf. "John A., John B." etc. was ok. Each day she would hang up all the sheets around the room. When we were finished only one chalkboard was uncovered. Every other available space was covered.
We didn't even get to 500,000 names. The day of the unit she made us stop and look around at the lists and try to fathom a person for each name and realize that we didn't make a dent in the estimated casualty totals.

"Full Restoration to New". So where are the other Satin finished, barrel-threaded, Nazi stamped P38s? What have we all been missing out on?

I really want to know what his reserve is.

Also, I know nothing about Waffenampts, or other stamps. This look Kosher? Trayf?



I know I am terrible for saying this:
I am sad that a P38 was ruined, but I do think that is a cool looking pistol.

I bought an M1 carbine from a kid in one of my college classes- we left class on break, drove over to a tractor trailer depot across from the school. I gave him money, he gave me the rifle. Jokes were abound about sniper over watch and Cuban hit teams.
Then we went back to tell the professor about it. That same professor later bought it from me.

So much money went into making this gun one hell of a bruiser, and then it was sent off to what appears to be a really lovely engraver to ensure that it never does exactly what it was modified to do.



I don't know a lot about firearm engraving, what makes it lovely?

Working the action on the gun, or even opening up the cylinder is going to gently caress up your gold trim:


I think the answer to this question is that whoever did it is an idiot.


The main thing that makes it lovely and not just stupid is what an uneven and terrible job they did applying that gold. One would think that paying this much money to have gold put on your gun odds are you are going to want it to be straight and precise.

I figured that might be what you meant. I was focused on the actual engraving part of it and ignoring the gold inlay because I hate it.

When I was a kid, I wanted to do reenacting because it looked like fun to run around with muskets. Now that I have met a bunch of reenactors...no. I have met some cool ones, but most are kinda cocktards.

I think that it is a little early to re-enact OIF/OEF, but whatever.

And that fictional reenacting is already done- it's called Deadliest Warrior.

If we count that poo poo as OIF re-enacting, then I do that poo poo everyday. But you guys forgot the most important piece of equipment- PT belt.

26 USC § 5845 - Definitions
...

(f) Destructive device
The term “destructive device” means
(1) any explosive, incendiary, or poison gas
(A) bomb,
(B) grenade,
(C) rocket having a propellent charge of more than four ounces,
(D) missile having an explosive or incendiary charge of more than one-quarter ounce,
(E) mine, or
(F) similar device;

So does that mean smoke grenades are considered DDs? I see them for sale at like every gunshow...I know that doesn't mean its cool, but I would figure the ate that responded to the stolen supressors at the SAR a year or so ago might have had a word or three for them.
