Playing Stalker has led me to learn about honorary weapon, and apparently the US doesn't have them? I think they would make for good heirloom guns.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honorary_weapon
>>65137860we used to, but it wasn't really official eitherjust during a time when giving a guy a gun was just that, a free gun, not a "transfer with background check"usually, it was more personal, as opposed to a state approved thing, even companies would do it for people retiring
>>65137860>apparently the US doesn't have them?Where did you get that idea from? High end auctions often have presentation guns, swords, etc, that were given to famous military figures. Granted a lot of that is from the 19th century and earlier, but there are modern examples too.
>>65137892Anything more modern than desert storm?
>>65137896yeah
>>65137896IIRC MARSOC gave out a bunch of presentation daggers back in 2015 or thereabouts?
>>65137860i think you misunderstand why that exists in their law, its mostly just so that way if the Russian state or allied state wants to give someone a fancy pistol as a thank you for service or something they can have it since RF's civ gun laws like all countries that arent America suck shit, unlike here you can just go buy a pistol and have it engraved and give them the damn thing tldr the law has to exist there otherwise presentation pistols couldnt be given out at all
>>65137932Imagine owning a gun with any political figures name on it outside of Teddy.
>>65137914Every time I see that fucking sword, I can’t help but laugh at how much the people honoring the sword recipient must’ve hated him.
>>65137860>good heirloom gunsYeah, until your euro shithole bans them and your grandkids comply.I assume that's how I ended up with Čeda Latincic's nickel plated retirement tokarev from the 70s.
>>65138099>outside of TeddyWashington, Jackson, Lincoln, Grant, Eisenhower, JFK would all also be acceptable.
>>65138308The Ex-Yugo nations are pretty lenient on guns, they don't really have shit like buy-backs or gun confiscations to my knowledge, that's places like the UK Also take care of that Yugoslav Tokarev
>>65137860>and apparently the US doesn't have them?im literally 10 feet away from my EG makarov
>>65138336Serbia actually started banning and confiscating a year or two back after some yahoo went on a shooting spree. So it's happening.
>>65138342im just off shift and didn't read anything correctly i thought you meant just the makarov itself i'm sorry anons i'll go to bed now
>>65138343They'll be scraping off like 1% of whatever people have, and that goes for places like Croatia and Bosnia too. There is so much shit left behind from the 90s that there's been several instances where people were spotted by police walking around with machine guns out in the boonies. There was an instance where a woman was trying to cross the border from Croatia into Serbia IIRC and she was caught with anti-tank weapons and hand grenades in her car. Weird shit.
>>65138345Goodnight, anon.Also, I don't know why Degtyarev carry an engraved pistol given only to distinguished military personnel to do secret mission in the Zone where everyone hate the military.
>>65138322>LincolnThey did limited runs of Lincoln's repeater, but I believe the #3 was the one they actually gave to Lincoln.>You'll have to get that from the Smithsonian
>>65138322>JFK would all also be acceptableonly if it's an engraved carcano
>>65137914Is that the fucking sword boss from super mario rpg
>>65138308>Yeah, until your euro shithole bans them and your grandkids comply.Most Euro presentation gift guns are bolt actions or sometimes shotguns, but you're not wrong about the absolute state of gun ownership here. I say this as an owner of multiple semis and handguns
Major Degtyarev is so awesome, he's the coolest stalker protagonist.
>>65138658>full length with scopeno love for obrez?
>>65138432Chowdare
>>65138658i always thought it was neat that the knife animations changed each game since its a different player
>>65137914Is that a WoW replica sword?
>>65138322>GrantRIA had this pair of presentation Remingtons belonging to Grant a few years back, the pair sold for over $5 million.
>>65137883you got a box with a glass top though usually, or at least velvet
>>65137932AWWWWWWWW COME ON.That's like parading your fat naked unshaved mother around covered in KY. Jesus put a towel on it.
>>65137896My old unit did a run of berettas commemorating their deployment. Some officer's mom worked for Beretta
