James Earl Jones owned the weirdest gun collection ever. Like he didn't own old milsurp, he had like an AR in that round the nazis used in WWII, a .30 super carry, a 10mm star mega star, a .38 colt 1911, that nazi meme sniper rifle from 1990s vidya, the automag from dirty harry, a chinese red 9 from resident evil 4, the revolver from ghost in the shell and that revolver that shoots triangle bullets just to name a few
Jones was a multimillionaire back when that meant something, and he would buy whole collections on a whim; so a lot of the stuff he owned might have just been incidental purchases that he got alongside something in particular he actually wanted. Just love of the game desu.
>collected what he liked because he liked itbasedest tier of collecting. Any kind of collecting.
When "I" go to a pawn shop and buy stupid second hand bullshit for cheap its called "retarded shortsighted purchases" and "gunsooming" and "buying videogame shit because im a manchild"but when JAMES EARL JONES does it its super cool and esotericfuck you
>>65425098He just got weird shit for the hell of it. Respect.
>>65425136kekI still want a 5-shot .32 revolver. I'm going to pay a machine shop to make me the cylinder (not a firearm) and make the rest myself.
>>65425123Yeah the thing where you just buy things that go up in value is called being a Jew, not collecting
>>65425098I really like the idea that I might have been able to have an autistic firearms conversation with James Earl Jones.Genuinely makes me smile to know that he was based in that regard.
>>65425136I will only except your fuck if you upload a vocaroo and your voice is 1/2 as manly as jej
>>65425098Whenever a gun store in the general California area went out of business, Jones would send out an agent to go and purchase all of their remaining stock, and then he'd go and just sift through that inventory and look for the stuff that he liked or thought was interesting.Then, after that, he'd sell off a lot of stuff, anonymously and at a typical market price, and then have an agent call up buyers and ask them if they wanted a signed letter of authenticity (he didn't want his famous name affecting market prices).As a result, there's quite a large smattering of random guns out there (most which are mundane), and which have that bit of paperwork and provenance to them. Most aren't really worth all that much more than typical examples of their kind, but they go for a bit more, and they're a little conversation piece and memento of a cool old actor guy.Some of these guns are more rare, or something esoteric and weird.>>65425136IMO as long as you can afford it and you aren't in some literal hoarder situation, I think it's still kinda based.>>65425164Making your own Lemon Squeezer, huh? That'd be pretty based, will you make it a top-break, or something else?
>>65425098>james earl jones was a .30 super carry chadNice
>>65425142One of the many guns which is papered to him is one of those mega-sketchy Broomhandle copies from China (namely the frame, and then a mix of mismatched parts from all kinds of other Broomhandle pistols). Some guy bought it and put in some work on trying to make it safely run, and it kinda does now.
>>65425228He posted on Arfcom regularly. If you’ve been around guns you may have actually talked to him already.
>>65425742What was his username?
Post pics plox
>>65425098sounds based
>>65425741you would need to make the slide stop out of Titanium before I felt touching that thing

>>65425953It looks safe-ish.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rA0sD77qj3Y
>>65425136I’d be inclined to get every gun from RE4 and then work outwards from there
>Darth Vader collected broom handle mausersPretty awesome
>>65425136Because you are poor.
>>65425136Become a multimillionaire dumbass.
>>65425098Lurk moar, noguns.
>>65425098>ownedi thought he was still alive
>>65425120And he was a good friend.
>>65426827You might considering his family sold his voice to AI
>>65425803It’s been sonfucking long I don’t even remember. Arfcom purged the names because they had members participate in the Jan insurrection and were threatening to kill people over the election so they wiped everything.Brownells owns it now.
>>65427306NTA but lol is that the fucking reason some old threads have no usernames? I thought I was going insane because no one else talks about it. Makes research a bitch sometimes.
IIRC didnt almost every WA2000 that made it to the us [180 something?] pass through his hands? He was a legitimately cool dude. The Conan documentary where he talks about the historical significance of Snake Cults in the early cradles of civilization made me realize how much smarter than the average actor he was. >It's legit a fantastic documentary and not "arrgh this is the part where i stab people with the sword" but the cast and especially crew giving insane insight into the set design and historical basis and mythology. I would kill to hang out with John Milius. Link here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jiQ9rUgQcXI
>>65425098Did you repost my thread from /tv/?
>>65425649I made this OP on /tv/ and it got reposted and that was one of the guns I made up to add to the list
>>65425098>nazi meme sniper rifle from 1990s vidyaFG 42?
>>65427806lol yes. People would literally just stalk you around the site talking about random trump bullshit if you ever had the slightest of mild opinions against the groupthink. What’s crazy is some of these were Leos who would keep trying to get you to admit membership in designated terrorist groups.like antifa, so they could stalk you irl too.It’s honestly crazy how the FBI didn’t roll the website owners up into obstruction of justice charges but I guess they kept the real archive anyway.Arfcoms owner was off a Jewish guy from ny funnily enough. Proving that everything out there is fake and gay yet again.
>>65425136get back in your cage, wagie
>>65428266Based misinformation spreader. People who believe lies commit the worser sin than those that profess them.
>>65428381WA2000>>65428551based antiantifa copsremember the based Arfcom posters got brownells to sever ties with and cancel all contracts with karl the cuck on account of karl is friends with a troon. not anything karl did or say, just that he's friends with a disgusting tranny. >>65429250half of the OP is right, but I wanted to pump that number up. the .30 super carry was made up. idk if it was the same model automag, it looked similar, idk if the chinaman mauser is a a red 9 or just a normal shitty mauser, the auto revolver was a webley not a matuba
>>65429288Karl saw someone there talking shit (as in a typical passing glib remark), and instead of just ignoring it and going about his life, he went and picked an actual fight with Arfcom, like he had this absurdly stupid, pointless, and performative 'battle' with lots of users on the forum, and like, REALLY aggressively. Made a big and heated spectacle out of it.Brownell's decided that Karl wasn't worth the trouble and dumped him for that, and this was the part where Ian decided that picking a side because Karl performatively demanded it, wasn't in his professional interest (likely not his personal interest either), which Karl interpreted as a sinister and malicious betrayal.One can only imagine the conversation that actually ensued in private between them.
>>65429327Don't forget Brownells owns Arfcom, so Karl was biting the hand that fed him. My favorite part was when they had a clearance sale on the WWSD rifles the coupon code was "TRIGGERED."Karl really flipped his shit at some point. Like he went from being a tech libertarian with a wehreboo streak to a leftist activist always getting involved with trannies and prostitutes.
>>65429361>he went from being a tech libertarian with a wehreboo streak to a leftist activist always getting involved with trannies and prostitutes.Troll's remorse. No clue why it happens, only that it does.
>>65429327How is King Cuck of Fag Mountain doing these days? I haven’t heard anything from him since the Brownells spergout. Is he still hanging out with that boring fat guy?
>>65430021I keep having to avoid his videos on YT so unfortunately still posting.
>>65430021>>65430041I thought the other fag got rid of him. I saw 2 of his vids. one was seething about a winchester 1895 in .30-06. he has a vintage one that's worn the fuck out cause the 1895 was never designed for .30-06, at least not with the steel of the time, so it kept jamming every shot until he downloaded the .30-06 to .30-40 krag pressures. I think he said the modern ones don't have that problem and it's a wear problem so idk how many rounds you can shoot before it gets shat up. And one on the taylors and co 9mm 1873 which is a piece of shit and was shooting him with exploded casings and shit
>>65429327Absolutely none of that happened.
>>65430148Probably not but still go away Karl
>>65429327I expect to hear about karl killing someone in the near future due to some perceived micro-aggression. Probably shoot a guy for being racist with no niggers even around.
>>65430148If you mean Karl's flailing accusations against Ian, then no, those aren't true.If you mean Karl going ape on Arfcom and burning all of his bridges, then yes, that very much happened, I was there to see it.
>>65431396Sounds like he got filtered by a boomer tier joke lol
>>65431396Doesn't Ian make good jewtube money? I doubt his wife cares about making lunch if she isn't working and he was actively making a video that makes them money
>>65432293I believe he voluntarily demonitized himself a few years ago and it patreon/ auction house sponsors only
>>65431396I’m surprised he used the word “her” in there. Fuckin Satanist
>>65431396Considering Ian used to have a whole channel about homesteading, where his wife was in several vids about food preparation; I highly doubt she would care and probably take it as a point of pride.I actually cant fucking find it now, there's the independent spirit but that only has 4 vids on it and she isn't in them, so either he had other vids which he privated or he had another channel somewhere out there.
>>65430021>Is he still hanging out with that boring fat guy?The fatso ended up having to cut ties with Karl because the association was becoming such a massively radioactive liability for trying to continue working in the gun industry. Naturally it took like no time at all for Karl to declare jihad.
>>65432392Oh, so even Cinnamon Riflebun gave him up?
>>65432320that doesn't make him not make good money
>>65425098>that nazi meme sniper rifle from 1990s vidya,You mean the PSG1? Or do you mean an actual "Nazi" gun from the WW2 era? I would call the PSG1 a kraut gun to avoid that confusion.
>>65432445WA2000
>>65432392>>65432424Yeah, heres the article that got fatty out of inrange. He was also getting shit on on reddit for not sticking up for them.I love it though.

>>65432479Unrelated to everything, but anon, thanks for introducing me to that site. Haven't read the article to see but if that really works on news sites I'll have to keep that in mind.

Luv me some .25 ACP.

>>65441701What gunlover could resist a gorgeous musket like that? Also, that H&R musket seems like it'd be very handy for muzzle loading season.
>>65441701Nicely reliable gun
>>65425136How much money do you have in a liquid savings account? How much do you have in a retirement fund? How much real estate do you own? How much of it is paid off? Same for automobiles? You see, 4channel incels grief you because they struggle with their own financial stability and use these metrics to weigh their own self worth. They see you buying what you like and assume you are irresponsible and broke and therefore someone they can feel good about punching down on. When really they're just coping and jealous that you got a cool gun that they wish they could have, but feel too constrained by the above things to justify such purchases for themselves. To them, only millionaires can buy fun guns. Everyone else should stick to the accepted meta AR build and a single Glock for maximum practicality. Tools not toys.t. seasoned gunsoomer

>>65442604Probably sat in storage somewhere for a time. Think of it a bit like back when you could buy a Mosin Nagant for $89, and it came caked in nasty Cosmoline you had to clean out first, otherwise you were gonna get a whole lot of sticky bolt and stuff.After they got the nipple channel cleared out, it continued to work.
