The availability of illegal weapons, handguns and even coveted rifles is incredible. At a local flea market, the right words, a nod and a wink, take you behind the scenes to fugazzy gunshop. Lots of Taurus', Rossi's, few S&W's, Saturday night specials a la Destroyit, MI. No NIB here, some look like they have been thru prolonged battles and neglect.

.38 special, .357 will go for about $300US, and lots of .22's, .32's, .380's.

Here is what is amazing, AK's, AR's, Shotguns are available. On guy quoted me for an AR15 $40,000 Brazilian which at today's exchange rate would be about $18,000US

Shotguns were quoted at about $10,000 Brazilian which is about $4500US

If the handguns are any indication, they are well used and maybe well worn

There's 30 rounders all over the place for not much money.  What are these 25 rounders you speak of?  I can't even find a photo.

Was joking, I dated a girl in Sao Paolo. The surfing is really what I'm curious about. The Brazilians have become pretty competitive lately.

OP: any luck finding these?  

If you locate them, please contact Adam.

Also, is there any sort of online, Portuguese-language "equipment exchnage" where Madsen parts might turn up?

The only guns I saw in Brazil were beat up and rough.  Looked like they had been buried in the forest for a year or two..   Would have been sketchy to shoot for sure..

Yeah - I've got tons of 30-rounders, which are double-stacked mags.

However, earlier models of the Madsen used single-stack mags (both 25-round and 40-round, I think) - and they are NOT interchangeable.  I need some of those for my older Madsen.

What caliber?

Brazilian Madsens are 7.62mm NATO.

I assume this is what you have alot of: http://www.ima-usa.com/original-wwii-8mm-madsen-lmg-magazine.html

I'm on a couple Brazilian Forums and have a good buddy that a MDPD Sgt that is Brazilian. He family runs an import/export business to ship goods to Brazil. Went with him back in High School to Brazil on a job. Even then, guns were easy to get if expensive. Everyone was armed and the law wasn't enforced.



Brazil has a pretty strong gun culture.

Your Madsen is chambered in 7x57 right? Will WWII vintage German 8mm 30 round Madsen magazines work?

ETA: At least we were trying to help

I'll keep my eyes open DK, I run into some preaty odd stuff on a regular basis.

I have been in many places around the World with "strict gun control laws" which is code for; guns are easy to get IF you have the money or are connected in some way.


I remember seeing brand new, in the grease wrapper, Chinese Tokarev knock-offs in South Asia selling for US$40 (specifically, they wanted TWO $20 bills) which included one full magazine of 9mm FMJ. I though that was a pretty good deal (no, I didn't buy one).


The ONLY people gun control laws "control" are poor and honest. Look at Chicago, look at NFA items, look at Obama & Hilary's SS protection detail.

Did some Googling.  Found a possible match from an auction in 2014.







You are a tough guy to shop for.  Your wife must hate Christmas.  Best she can do is get you some underwear screen printed with Madsens on them, and then you'll point out that curvature of the mag is all wrong.
