BB Gun With All Kinds Of Stuff Hanging Off It

wicked-bb-gun.jpg

This is the Walther NightHawk BB Gun. As you can see it looks like they threw on every extra peripheral possible. It's got a flashlight, red dot sight, muzzle compensator, microwave, and I think I saw a hot tub. Okay, so no microwave. Still, it is pretty sweet looking. Unfortunately the only holds 8 rounds per clip and shoots at a paltry 360 FPS. But besides that, it's cool. Did I mention I like the styling? I like the styling. I think this is just the thing to tote when I'm breaking into the neighbor's house to steal beer at night when I'm too drunk to drive. I've got one on the way, so I'll update and let you know how Mission Too Drunk To Drive But Not Drunk Enough To Sleep goes.

UPDATE
: He shot me... the old bastard shot me... he had real gun... bleeding... lots... someone please call... Domino's... see if one of their drivers can... ugh... swing by with a case...

Charter Arms Rimless Revolver

Charter Arms announces the Charter Arms Rimless Revolver (CARR) a revolutionary new rimless revolver for popular semi-auto cartridges.

From the press release:

Available Calibers: Charter Arms will first offer the .40 S&W chambering, followed quickly by the .45ACP and 9×19 mm Parabellum (the 9mm Parabellum revolver will also chamber factory .380ACP). All three of Charter Arms’ Rimless Revolvers (9mm, .40 and .45) are rated for higher velocity +P loadings.

The advantage is now the average gun owner can own an affordable, trouble-free revolver chambered in these popular semi-auto rounds without the need for specialized ammunition clips and a specialized gun.

Back up and self-defense: For law enforcement work the always ready-to-fire, fiddle-factor-free revolver is the back up to have; especially if is the same caliber as the officer’s carry gun. As a primary self-defense carry gun, these three calibers mean reliable protection in popular semi-auto self defense-calibers.

If more power is needed, step up to +P ammo. The advantage with Charter Arms Rimless Revolvers is they will fire any mix of cartridges while maintaining 100% reliability. For plinking with .45ACP or 9mm surplus and discounted military type ammo, the affordable Charter Arms Rimless Revolver will prove to be very economical and it’s also a .380 revolver. Now that is fun!

The secret is the patent-pending Charter Arms Rimless Revolver Round System. Basically, when a round is loaded into the chamber a specialized spring engages the cartridge’s ejector groove. When the cylinder is opened and the ejector rod operated, it extracts and ejects the fired cases.

Models: Initially snubbarrels (2″ 9mm and 2.2″ .40 and .45ACP) as these revolvers are designed for self- defense and back up. The 9mm is built on Charter Arms’ compact and lightweight undercover platform featuring an aluminum frame and weighing only 12 ounces. The .40 and .45ACP built on the popular and robust Bulldog frame due to the larger diameter of these cartridges while maintaining a compact profile.

Availability: First quarter of 2009.

Star Z-84 (Spain)

Star Z-84

Z-84 submachine gun has been developed in mid-1980s by Star Bonifacio Echeverria SA company of Spain, as a compact, lightweight yet comfortable and powerful weapon. Unlike its predescessors, the Z-62 and Z-70B, Z-84 available only in 9mm Luger/Parabellum (some sources said that it can be orederd in 9mm Largo, however) and is adopted by some Spanish Army and police units, and also is sold for export.

Z-84 is built to modern standards, having stamped steel, two-piece receiver, with magazine housing built into the pistol grip. The bolwback-operated bolt is of wrap-around type, and when in forward position, it sleeves around the barrel for most part of its lenght. Bolt rides on two guide rails and has significant clearance between its sides and receiver walls, allowing the mechanism to work when seriously fouled inside. Z-84 fires from the open bolt, and has feed system so deigned that it allows for reliable feeding not only of FMJ ammunition, but also Soft-Point and HollowPoint (JSP, JHP) ammunition, used in police operations to achieve better stopping power. Safety switch is located inside the triggerguard, behind the trigger, and locks the trigger when engaged. Separate fire mode selector is located at the left wall of the receiver and allows for single shots or full-auto fire. Z-84 has additional safety features, including "intercepting notches" on the bolt, that used to catch the bolt if charging handle slips from the hand during the chargng cycle. Also, it has special "inertia lock", that locks the bolt in forward position against hard blows, and is owerridden by the pull of the charging handle. The charging handle itself does not move when gun is fired. Two-position flip-up aperture rear sights are graduated for 100 and 200 meters distance. Folding metallic butt-stock flips up and forward when not in use.

According to some sources, Z-84 is very reliable and quite controllable in full-auto, even when fired off-hands.

AEK-919 K "Kashtan" submachine gun (Russia)

AEK-919 K "Kashtan" submachine gun

AEK-919 submachine gun was developed at the Kovrov Mechanical Plant in the mid-1990s for Russian Army and special law-enforcement forces. Initial design was based on Austrian Steyr MPi-69 submachine gun, and was not withouth a certain flaws. After initial testings design was improved - overall lenght was decreased, cross-bolt safety switch was replaced by the rotating fire selector/safety swithch; ergonomics also was improved. Resulting design was named AEK-919K "Kashtan" and probably is used in small numbers by different special forces of the Russian Army and Law Enforcement units.

AEK-919K is a simple blowback operated, selective fire submachine gun. It featured a "sleeved" bolt which, in forward position, encloses the rear part of the barrel. AEK-919K is fired from the open bolt, and fed from the two-column magazines that hold 20 or 30 rounds. Receiver is made from the stamped steel, pistol grip with triggerguard and a heatshield are made from the plastic. Cocking handle is located at the left side of the receiver and does not move when gun is fired. AEK-919K featured an "L"-shaped open rear sights marked for 50 and 100 meters distance, it also can be equipped with laser aiming device and "red dot" sight. Barrel of the AEK-919K featured polygonal rifling and threaded muzzle, so a silencer can be quickly installed if required. Retractable stock is made from the steel, with rubberised buttplate.

AEK-919K is a compact and handy firerarm, and the only drawback i found when holding that gun at one of the exhibitions is in the placement of the safety/selector switch. When gun is in the "safe" mode, it is almost impossible to switch the gun into "fire" mode withouth the weak (non-firing) hand or withouth rotating the gun in the palm. In all other respects AEK-919K is reported to be accurate, reliable and comfortable to fire, even from off-hands. A currently advertised along with AEK-919K "red dot" sight is a little bit cumbersome but it allows for much faster target aquisition; any other, more compaqct "red dot" sight also can be installed withouth getting into much (if any) trouble.

Jati-Matic submachine gun / GG-95 PDW (Finland)

Jati-Matic submachine gun / GG-95 PDW

Jati-Matic submachine gun was designed by Jali Timari and manufactured at Tampeeren Asepaja Oy, Finland, in 1980 - 1987. In 1995 the Jati-Matic briefly appeared again, under the name of GG-95 PDW from finnish company Oy Golden Gun Ltd.

Jati-Matic is a blowback operated, select-fire submachine gun. The bolt recoils up an inclined plane at angle to the barrel, giving an element of braking to the bolt, and also resisting the upward movement of the barrel during the fire. The pistol grip is located higher than on many other SMGs, giving the better control over the recoil. Jati-Matic has no buttstock and has folding forward grip, which also acts as a cocking handle when opened. When folded, front grip also provides an element of mechanical safety, blocking the bolt. The receiver is made from pressed steel with hinged top cover. The selection of the fire mode (single or full auto) can be done with different trigger pulls - short pull produced single shots, long pull - full auto fire.

Port-Said submachine gun

Port-Said submachine gun

Port-Said submachine gun

In early 1950s Egyptean government acquired necessary machinery and manufacturing documentation from Sweden to produce a local copy of the Swedish Carl Gustaf M/45 submachine gun. Originally known as “Port-Said”, the Swedish design was later simplified in Egyptian production by discarding barrel jacket and simplifying the sights and shoulder stock. This less expensive and somewhat more roughly finished version was produced as “Akaba” or “Kara” submachine gun.

Port-Said submachine gun is a simple blowback operated, full automatic only firearm that fires from open bolt. The receiver is made from steel tube, the separate barrel jacket is also made from perforated steel tube. Despite the fact that Egyptean submachine guns used only one type of magazine, the 36-round double stack, double feed box magazines designed for Swedish M/45 submachine guns, they retained removable magazine housings of earliest Swedish submachine guns, which were intended to allow use of various types of magazines. The manual safety is made in the form of an L-shaped cut made at the rear of the cocking handle slot; it is used to engage cocking handle when bolt is in retracted position. The sights consist of front blade and flip-type rear sight, marked for 100 and 200 meters. Shoulder stock is made from thin steel tubing and folds forward and to the right.

FAMAE S.A.F. (Chile)

FAMAE S.A.F.

FAMAE S.A.F.

FAMAE S.A.F.

The S.A.F. SMG was developed and is manufactured by Chilean company FAMAE. The S.A.F. design is based on SIG 540 assault rifle, designed in Swiss and manufactured in Chile by FAMAE under license from SIG.

The S.A.F. SMG is in service with Chilean Armed Forces and Police.

Technically, the S.A.F. is a recoil operated select fire gun, firing from closed bolt. The triger/hammer group and floating firing pin design is similar to SIG 540, but the bolt is of new design. The receiver is similar in design to SIG 540, and is of folding type (upper and lower receivers are assembled by two steel pins, much like the M16 receiver does). The S.A.F. has ambidextrous safety/fire selector switch with four settings - safe, single shot, 3 round bursts and full auto. S.A.F. SMGs are manufactured with side-folding or fixed polymer buttstocks. Silenced version, with folding buttstock and integral silencer is available for special forces use. S.A.F. has post front sight, ajustable wor elevation, and aperture rear sight, ajustable for windage. S.A.F. uses 20 or 30 rounds magazines made from transluscent polymer. Magazines had special studs and slots that allowed two or more magazines to be clipped together for quicker magazine change.

Hiram Maxim (born 1853) invented the Maxim Silencer or Suppressor: that attached to the front of the barrel of a pistol and allowed the firearm to be fired without a loud bang. Invented in 1909, the Maxim Suppressor was the first commercially successful silencer.

Gunbroker


I recently bought a 4" Model 14-2 on Gunbroker. I just wanted a good shooter but I may have gotten a very rare gun fairly cheaply. Someone told me that only 2038 of these were specially made for a huge gun store in Ohio during the mid-sixties. Is this one of them and is it worth more than the $400 it cost me? Thanks for any help.

PS: I've attached pictures, one of which includes the serial and model numbers.

PPS: Whoever is IDing the S&Ws here is a godsend. My hat is off to you!

Fallout 3 gun replica



Remember a while back when a game prop-replica maker named Harrison Krix created a cool-as-school replica of the Portal gun? Well, he's been keeping extremely busy since then with a number of different game-related projects. His latest effort is a commission for a AER9 Laser Rifle as seen in Fallout 3.

Krix goes into extreme detail on his web site on how he build the gun replica for a fan who wanted to use it for a Fallout 3 Vault Dweller cosplay costume. As you can see above the final result is pretty spectacular and we are sure that the person who hired Krix to make the gun got more than his money's worth.

NYPD gun


This one has been carried allot, grip is worn on the right, lots of scratches. All the signs of police trade in..

The mechanics are smooth and the timing is spot on. The barrel to cylinder gap is about 6 thou. Barrel rifling is flawless and there is no wear on the cylinder face or the breech area. Screw heads are unmarred. The edges of the ejector are razor sharp as are the cylinder openings.

DAO so likely a 20 year old NYPD gun? Cool if so. How can I tell if it is a conversion and not factory DAO?

Got it for $220 out the door.

Deactivated Gun


Inoperable vs Deactivated, I'd consider that to be two completely different issues. I can take an inoperable car and fix it to where it's drivable. To deactivate a gun, means to render it completely and irreversible inert, ie. melt a slug down the barrel and fuse the barrel to the frame.

Tacky Sig Sauer P230 Hand Gun USB Computer Mouse

http://powerful-gun.blogspot.com/
The Cybergun G-Mouse, to give the device its correct title, appears to be little more than a plastic moulding of a hand gun attached to a USB mouse though the site offering this ‘gem’ offers nothing in the way of details concerning the specifications – safe to say we’re fairly sure it will be a rudimentary non-optical, mechanical affair.

Gun-Cams Could See Action Soon

http://powerful-gun.blogspot.com/
Cops in Washington DC might see their pistols fitted with cameras in the near future, assuming a draft local bill is passed by the DC judicial committee. This would mean gunsight video is recorded every time the weapon was drawn. While gun camera technology isn't exactly rocket science and can be purchased off the shelf already, equipping the entire force with this system will introduce a whole new bunch of tasks to the department, as somebody has to keep track of all those videos.

This has very little to do with integration other than the fact that these guys “integrated” an Airsoft automatic BB gun, video camera, a photography tripod and some servo motors. I’m not sure what is more impressive, how well the thing actually works or that Aaron used his kid brother, Ezra, as a target.

Poweful Ray gun

http://powerful-gun.blogspot.com/
I've loved toy guns since I was a kid. I think they have positive aesthetic qualities. You could argue all day about the questionable taste of regarding a gun as an art object, but the fact of the market is that sexier-looking guns sell better, and besides, archaic weapons such as swords are commonly regarded and traded as art objects today, despite the fact that their purpose, in their day, was no less abhorrent than that of a shotgun. One could even argue that a sword is morally uglier than a shotgun; after all, no one hunts with a sword. Ray guns, in particular, are highly fanciful. Their purpose is to stimulate the imagination. It is perhaps unfortunate that real firearms are looking more and more like ray guns every day, but I'm not going to lose my interest in ray guns and what they represent because of it.

Sten Gun Silenced

http://powerful-gun.blogspot.com/
These guns had shortened barrels enclosed into integral silencer. The silencer was rather effective so most audible sound when firing Mark 2S was the clattering of the bolt moving back and forth in the receiver. Contemporary manuals advised that the weapon was to be fired in semi-automatic mode; the full automatic fire was reserved for emergency situations, as it decreased the service life of silencer significantly.

Sten Gun Disassembled

http://powerful-gun.blogspot.com/
Over the period of manufacture the Sten design was further simplified: the most basic model, the Mark III, could be produced from just five man-hours work.
