I think this thing must've been made literally as a gun to be used in giveaways, randomly included (in feed sacks), or as a sales goal gift for literal children selling subscriptions door to door. Stamped sheetmetal receiver. Brass barrel, yes, BRASS rifled barrel sleeved inside the steel. Some models of Hamilton are the cheapest sub 16" NFA exempt SBRs I know of. They go for like $50-125.
Seriously who took the time to do this to a K11?
Thompson but what if it were owned by the Chinese and they really wanted a PPS instead?
M16 but what if it shot 7.62x39 and it actually kinda didn't have retarded looking mags like modern 7.62 ARs?
M16 (AR-10?) but what if it shot 7.62x39 and it actually kinda didn't have retarded looking mags like modern 7.62 ARs?
Okay, fun guessing game: what gun is this? Yes there is an answer as I know who manufactured this tool.

>>65345115yes. iirc also full auto.
>>65345288behold, the American-720
>>65345477how the fuck does this work, with the deagle I believe it cuz that's a fixed barrel and the slide stays the same size, but 1911?
>>65345553is that not just a manual drill

Kraut over-under pump-action/break-action.Bottom barrel is a pump action rifle.Top barrel is a single-shot break action.Most are made to order.The top barrel may be had either as a shotgun or a rifle.The bottom barrel may be had in pretty much any reasonably normally sized rifle caliber.
>>65346214>Am I alone in thinking a revolver rifle in .308 would be a fun fudd gun for game hunting?Yeah, I think you're more or less alone in that opinion. The blast from the cylinder gap would be a bitch.The other major issue is that bottlenecked high pressure cartridges don't really work in revolvers.The cases tend to stretch rearward against the frame, causing a excessive friction and making the cylinder bind.

>>65346715>Most are made to order.>The top barrel may be had either as a shotgun or a rifle.>why yes burger meister>I don't mind owning only one gun
>>65345641The grip/frame/lower, whichever you want to call it, is an early version of what would be made in a production handgun to this day (albeit now with a different frame style). I'm not sure the designer confirmed this to anyone while he was alive but this was more or less a test run for the upcoming shift to guns. The designer hadn't done stampings or guns at this point as he ran a tool manufacturing company but wanted to get into making firearms. (hint:) He partnered with a friend and investor to get his company off the ground, (bigger hint:) possibly one of if not the only gun company investors that we all know the name of.>>6534654490% sure it does but I don't remember off the top of my head. Still keeping an eye out for one of these.
>>65344789>All you fuckboys out there, tryin' to talk shit about me?>Oh, I see you've locked on? Have you? You've fired at me?>I'll eject from my plane, I'll eject from my plane, I'll eject from my pl->HAA, I HAVE ANOTHER FUCKIN' PLANE YOU FUCKIN' BITCH(I'd include a screenshot of that video or a shoop but what a waste of image limit that would be)
>>65346686I think someone in /msg/ or someone's friend in that general owns it. I just want to know how well that thing works. Check this out. Folding nugget.
>>65346845Ruger and Alexander Strumm?That does look like a Mark frame
>>65346686And one more for good measure, folding Krag. Actually kinda think it's well done. Nice and nitre blued to a deep blue. I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to replicate this stock from scratch (including carving the wood from a blank) but I don't even know where to begin when it comes to metal. Also 1800s old growth vs modern walnut (?) lmao and all that. Krags basically have a fucking sliver of wood going under the mag IIRC. Very thin.
>>65346214yes you are alone. besides all the engineering issues that come with trying to make a revolver rifle that >>65346727 pointed out, a bolt action will fire just as, if not faster than a revolver rifle, especially well made ones like Tikka (such a fucking smooth bolt to operate) or a semiauto rifle will allow for faster follow up shots. I dont personally care for them, but even a lever action would be a better option.a revolver rifle would be a novelty gimmick gun
>>65346902Yep, here's an early prototype. Note the lack of rounding around the front bottom edge of the magwell with only a small flare compared to the final which has a larger protruding rounded corner. Not sure what's sticking out from the magwell area; maybe it keeps the mag held steady? I do have one more pic if you want. Also IIRC before the Standard, he more or less made a 22LR copy of the Nambu. >>65345523
>>65345539That was something the Chinese started doing at some point, trying to consolidate a lot of their wild smattering of guns, which included converting a lot of guns for the calibers they had standardized on.Sten guns and Thompsons which they had would be converted to 7.62x25mm Tokarev and using (typically) PPS-43 magazines.They also converted a lot of their Canadian Bren guns to 7.62x39mm, and using AK magazines. There were even a few examples where they fucking spliced two converted Bren guns together, to make a double-Bren taking a pair of AK mags. Not making that shit up, that's entirely goddamn real, and it works.
>>65345560>Do you like getting into fist-fight range gunfights in SE Asian tunnel networks?>Well, have we got a gun for you!Jokes aside my dad's friend was a tunnel rat because he's like 5'5". I remember him telling me when they sent him down underground he always chose to bring a Smith & Wesson 38 instead of a 1911, because one time he rammed the barrel of a 1911 into a guy's chest and it didn't go bang when he pulled the trigger, because that pushed the slide out of battery.If I remember right he said "boy that was a rough surprise, if I didn't have a knife I don't think I'd be here today!"
>>65345539Here's another Chinese converted Thompson. It actually looks pretty fucking badass with the foregrip, lack of compensator, and with that 35rd magazine of 7.62mm. Probably has very mild recoil.>>65345553That's one of Bill Ruger's early tool prototypes, he was gonna to hand tools and I think at some point power tools (all using the Nambu style of grip), but that didn't really work out.So he got into guns instead, and that worked out great (setting aside his later fuddery).
>>65346727Both of those are probably solvable, but would require some pretty cursed engineering that would make the entire thing of extremely dubious value.Off the top of my head, you could force the cylinder forward to (mostly) seal the cylinder gap, similar to a nagant or six-12* . If the cylinder was pushed forward by a quasi-bolt face that also supports the cartridge, that would also prevent the cartridge from stretching so much that it would interfering with the cylinder's motion, although a mechanism beefy enough to support a .308 is probably going to lead to an absurdly heavy trigger pull unless you do some more cursed engineering to make the mechanism reset itself off the cartridge's rearward impulse.*RIP funny suppressed/underbarrel revolver shotgun that never came to be, I know you probably would have been dogshit with a horrible heavy trigger pull but you would have still been really goddamn cool
>>65347003So let me get this right, you slop some 2 part epoxy with kevlar fibers in it on top of your slide and get the zero "close enough" while it's curing (read: can't shoot to confirm zero) and then hope that the epoxy doesn't delaminate, crack, or peel over time after being subjected to gun cleaners and oils? Where's the KelTec engineer hiding? Also, TWO MINUTE cure! That's retardedly fast but I guess you need that to prevent sagging and twisting as even my 5 minute tends to be "soft" for 24-48 hours.
>>65347057A textron style CT round would also solve those problems without the mechanical complexity

>>65345477That 1911 carbine is making my pp bigger.
>>65345640the math is the same, the difference is the spring pressure and weight of the slide have to change, requiring different parts to achieve the necessary velocity for the cycling to work with the magazines. it's the same as how a commander works, but you gotta work in the opposite direction, with slower slide velocity due to the increased slide mass. the sights are longer though, which is nice.

>>65347896I've never seen that and I own a shotgun red dot (not OEG) from the 70s because that kind of thing interests me. Reading between the lines (and knowing what I know about mine), it's probably lit with a fiber optic filament from ambient lighting. You could use tritium in that but there's no way they did. That would be fucking sick if someone made a modern version with tritium and a plate or two hole mounting, though. Maybe rough adjustment. Then again, I say that and this fucking thing exists. No zeroing. You can't! But also ambient only. For what reason? Who knows, it's a whole $99.
>>65347859I have to imagine it's for armpit stabbing downed knights. I have to.
>>65347896>the article I read on it says it worked pretty good and the biggest drawback is obviously needing to be manually tuned onHuh. CR2032, sure I could see it, but where the hell is the button or switch? Another readydot pic because mildly related.
This has just about completely vanished from the internet.
It's a chassis for an M14 rifle, and it's machined out of aluminum. If I recall it right, this 'upgrade' weighed something like 14lbs by itself, making it heavier than a complete M14 in just about any other available stock (with or without a loaded magazine).
This thing could kinda make sense as a toy for a registered select-fire example, but I believe the creator had some higher ambitions.
>>65347373I've seen that one before.
>>65348634but what's the point? it doesn't even bullpup it
>>65344529>overlapping bladeswhat could possibly go wrong?
>>65348668I'd be absolutely fucked if I knew the logic behind it. Maybe it freefloats the barrel or something? It'd be the most brutally inefficient approach to that imaginable though.It doesn't have any spots for mounting any optic, rail, or scoperings, that I can tell, however, so the only sighting you have are those... slabs... slabs of plexiglass(?) with stadia lines on it.Again, if you had a real full-auto M14, then that thing would probably be kinda fun in a sense because recoil would barely move the gun when fitted in that hulking beast (and there's a built in bipod, you could drump a 50rd drum with little problem), but beyond that I've always been really stumped at what it'd be good for.Seemingly, everyone else thought the same, because it must have generated no interest or sales, it's very hard to find any evidence of this thing existing beyond me posting those images on /k/ once in a blue moon.
>>65348672They are without a doubt geared together, smart one. Wait til you find out they managed to mount machine guns that shot through the propellers on WW1 fighter planes withOUT ever shooting the propellers.
>>65346984I did go poking around old mine workings the Taliban used to hide shit down in them, thankfully not ending up in knifey-spoony-gunfights down in them because they were hacked out of the rock by people the size of garden gnomes and I wasn't a small creature, nor was my sapper. But someone had to do it and I sadly had some experience with mines and caving.No fucking way you want to get into a fight down there either, whole place would come down around your ears and then you're stuck and fucked 200m underneath a mountain with 'help' being days away. So we'd just leave some big old charges of C4 and hope to have enough time to get back out again, so fucking sketchy in hindsight!Anyway, an M30 Drilling, Luftwaffle survival gun they issued to pilots in Africa, couple of 12G tubes and a 9.3x74R in a SXS + underbarrel configurationSo if you get shot down, you get to go safari
>>65348689>Wait til you find out they managed to mount machine guns that shot through the propellers on WW1 fighter planes withOUT ever shooting the propellers.Not related to anon's stupidity, but you're also neglecting to mention that some took the comically fucking silly approach of not bothering to synchronize their guns with the plane's engine at all, and seriously just went for armored propellers instead.Propeller can't get shot off if it's too sturdy!
>>65348689>Gears never slipRetard
>>65348624>>65348630>>65348634In what fucking world does it not just make sense to mill some molds and injection mold this out of glass reinforced nylon at a retarded thickness? Make the sights attach to the stock sights and put a gap around them in the shell to prevent silly ass harmonic problems and you can even use no-drill mounts for rails if one for the M14 rear sight block exists. Also good idea to maybe open-top as IIRC the M14 can use side mount rails/mounts.

>>65348797>>65349830Alternatively you could just go back in time and sell them to the IRA, and they'd plop those down outside British bases.>>65349863Holy shit I watched that video as a kid and didn't understand how it worked, it's just now I realized it used a friction delayed blowback.

>>65355841Magnum Research offers their long frame BFR revolvers in .223 and .30-30, and they do so under the pretext that reliability will never be great, and that you accept that by buying them and that's your own responsibility.Presumably, the Taurus revolver had the same case setback issues as the other ones trying to do cartridges like these, hence they decided it wasn't really worth it.I can't imagine the ATF having cared that much when 5.56mm AR pistols are a thing since ages ago and do that job much better.

>>65364754Oh absolutely the old mags a shit but they do have a look that goes with that stock. I have some old 30rd doublestacks the size of a fucking BX-15. One had its seam basically fall apart (superglued halves ~30+ years later) so the quality is questionable, but they have a matching aesthetic. I just wished they were as strong and reliable as BX-15s because I'd switch in a second if they were. Maybe I'll make my own, who knows. Idk who owns the patents these days though; that's the PITA, having to only make them for personal use because some dickhead is probably sitting on those patents doing nothing with them. Kinda lame. Or who knows, maybe I should look at those patents again and see if they're expired.Either way, I have them for fun and have used them maybe once. Never to full capacity.
>>65364754Either way, BX-15s is where it's at. Best capacity to size ratio, better than the 10s for use with a paddle, and doesn't get in the way on long hunts and hikes like the 25.

>>65364754Anyways, the stock is okay if found at a steep discount as compared to the B-TM (~$250). Maybe, like, under $50. Or under $30. It creaks. Not the most stable (less stable than the B-TM, but that can be shimmed) and it's a little funky. Stiff enough, but bulkier and a little less user friendly than the B-TM maybe. Definitely not as modern; the optional sling cups are a huge bonus on the B-TM and make it carry much nicer. Overall I can't see the being bad from playing with it. IIRC it can take a barrel band, too, which is strange given its looks. Maybe I should clone >>65353360, lol, all I need is a spare 10/22.Also was this dude a future Keltec engineer or what? This mag is just fucking weird. His patents are even more wild.

>>65344514Weird patents? Starting with...>yeah let's doublestack some 22
Fuck quadstack, we got peace sign branching doublestack 22LR.
>IDK who owns the patentsLooks like US4672760A and US4790094A; the ones that look exactly like my mag expired, assigned in 2015 to Vista Outdoor which may mean it'd draw their attention and make it a bitch to make even though I legally could because it's expired (*I think). Inventors listed for those two is: M. Gaines Chesnut & Thomas L. Castetter. Patent US4127954A which contains this mag and the insanity shown above is held by MICHAELS OF OREGON CO. (who?), and expired. Inventor listed as Erich Hausmann.Also, what's the deal with a lot of these patents being sold to new assignees a year or even many more after the anticipated expiration? They're all labeled expired but why buy an expired patent? What would you gain? Oh also Vista holds the patent for the Primos Trigger sticks, what the fuck?https://patents.google.com/patent/US9010710B1/Expiring this year, maybe some better knockoffs will show up instead of having to pay $140 for this fucking thing. I guess Vista just owns fucking everything.Patents for mag:https://patents.google.com/patent/US4672760Ahttps://patents.google.com/patent/US4790094Ahttps://patents.google.com/patent/US4127954A
>>65369398Not an expert but you can extend patents if you didn't get a chance to profit off them before they expired (I think) maybe possibly.
Trying to be sparing with my pics since we're at ~50 images left until limit, but...>You can't use the same mags in an AR and a Mini, anon!That's where you'd be wrong. You can use these mags made by Eagle. Clear, pretty neat, awful follower anti-tilt, 35 round (why?!). I have some NIB. They can be coupled together with some nubs and holes, and get this, to help them stay together, they include... (take a guess, bottom of next post)https://patents.google.com/patent/US4586281A/
Oh man, I forgot. Those Eagle AR/Mini mags have a constant force spring like a BX-15. But sideways. In the follower. Why. Anyways, here's another invention of this guy. Yep, an injection molded shroud over a 22LR barrel. I believe Butler Creek actually made these but info online is scarce; I've seen one of these on an old 10/22 in person. Looks neat, but why do that to get a normal profile? How did the Daisy 2201 and family not violate this patent? (PS: that entire line of rifles belongs in "funky" for multiple reasons including the manufacturer, injection molded permanently attached barrel jackets, the barrel attachment method, ZAMAK receivers, mags having their own latches via live hinges/springs, and a few models being a knockoff Winchester 1903)Also, GUESS WHAT STOCK MAKES AN APPEARANCE IN THIS PATENT? I can't make this shit up!https://patents.google.com/patent/US4769938A/>Answer to previous: Here's an oily o-ring, bro. Yeah they gave you a large o-ring to hold the mags together, 1 per mag. How well did that work? Anyone ever used those mags? Why not include hair ties instead? At least they don't stick to plastic if the elastic breaks down...
Okay apparently they called those barrels "carbon fiber" even though they're plastic according to 3 seconds of research and an old forum post. And yes Butler Creek. Terrible accuracy apparently. Who would guess when even until relatively recently, real carbon wrapped barrels also suffered accuracy issues?
Clip-on BUIS for your scope in 1977. No comment...but what the fuck do you do if you have any scope with a front and rear objective bell and not a straight tube, wtf?https://patents.google.com/patent/USD253545S/
>>65347373>>65348667I was going to comment about the barrel of the rifle being so far back, but uh, is that a fucking shotgun where the pump rides on the barrel which is also at the 6 o'clock position while the mag tube is above it at the 12 o'clock position? What the fuck?
>>65344514Isn't this from battlestar Galactica?
>>65348797Woodland firebreaks. Riverbeds, mountain passes. Any type of funnel where a helicopter is likely to pass through.
>>65370602shut the fuck up nerd (yes)
>>65369496The barrel is the pump on that shotgun.
