I thought I'd put up a tacked thread as the gun pics are getting a bit scattered.

My pics are gonna be pretty tame once these Gun whores (you know who you are) start posting pics of them with their belt fed arms

Oh well here a few to help start the proceedings.

Taffy fighting a raging back problem trying to shoot unsupported

Experimenting with different optics and using the 22 conversion kit

Taffys meagre collection. Dreams of my 5 pistols

that should have been in this picture also

A cold day at Brecon on the Armys 300m qualifying range

This guy from my club knows more about guns than I'll ever know. A right farmer type (

Matt) but shit he's got some knowledge. A mine of information on pistols and rifles new and old.

Oh and this is me and the Welsh Minute Men who Guard the Welsh Borders

That's All Folks

Here's a little thing that rarely comes out. Decided to have some fun today with it, but as I was on my own it hard to take those 'action shots'.

It's a .22 based version of the WWII Russian SMG, PPSh-41. Made by Pietta. 53 rnd drum mag.

Have to see if we can bump-fire it one day

Posted: 8/13/2005 4:30:56 PM EDT

[#15]

So it's a semi-auto 22?

Cool....I thought it looked Russian but I did'nt think of it in 22lr

Taffy

bump fire ya say?....In Arizona yes?

Posted: 8/14/2005 6:00:55 AM EDT

[#16]

Bump-fire is not illegal - one round per pull of the trigger, you just have to be careful that the rounds go where you want and in a safe direction. Not a problem where I fire it, a completely enclosed firing point and backstop, not quite indoors, but as near as damn it.

Posted: 8/14/2005 6:12:03 AM EDT

[#17]

True, not illegal, but it does wind the 'Range Nazis' up a treat!

Bump-firing is something I would not condone as I think it is irresponsible, even if it is fun - so I've heard. I just said it as a joke, honest!

Glad to hear that!… and bump firing with tracers is even more irresponsible… I have been told…

Not all my guns are AR's. I do have a few others you know

This is one of my favourites. It's a Springfield M1903-A3 in .30-06.
This is one of the Bremmer/Parker-Hale rifles that was originally part of the lend/Lease arrangement.
Essentially it's a brand new rifle.
After seeing the Jackson's sniper rifle in Saving Private Ryan I decided to get one. Hence, it's now a 1903-A4gery (the sniper variant)
I managed to track down an almost authentic scope. This one's a Lyman Alaskan and these were fitted to the rifles during WW2 and known as the M73.
The rifle was originally manufactured by Remington and the barrel is a 2 groove with a 8/43 date stamp.
This is a link to some 1903-A4 stuff
Hopefully one day I'll manage to get an original Unertl 8x and turn it into a copy of the USMC rifle

Welcome to the forum RBECKS.

Nice looking rifle(s). Is it the same rifle with different stocks/fore-ends? I bet I know what you did with the Magpul stock.
