What is the worst gun you've bought?
Squirt gun. It doesnโt even moan when it does it.
>>63908611 (OP)The ones I haven't.
A rusted out FIE Titan from some kid who probably fished it out of a storm drain. Paid $70.
>>63908611 (OP)Potatoe gun, ruins good potatoes, though technically a gift.

>>63908617100 rounds in a six shooter is pretty cool when you're eight.
>>63908611 (OP)P226 DAK in .40, for bonus points I was recovering from chemo at the time so you can imagine just how much fun that thing was to shoot. Technically traded for it though.
>>63908611 (OP)TP9SFX. Its not even bad at all and is probably my most accurate handgun I own but I just hate how soulless and sloppy it is. I'll trade it in towards another full size eventually but I just shoot my carry pistols for the time being.
Probably the hammer fired Springfield XD-E that nobody remembers. I wanted a single stack DA/SA and while it was pretty neat, the DA trigger was pretty bad.
I did buy a crappy AK that was covered from a single stack AK. That way probably the worst as I only kept it for about a week after learning more about it.

>>63908921...9mm guns not being able to cycle hollow points or wadcutters is absurdly common. Granted, it's an AR-based carbine so it should be designed to but it shouldn't be surprising that it wasn't
Taurus Judge Public Defender (the snubnose polymer one)
Hurt like a bastard to shoot, and also the cylinder would lock up and if you shot .410 out of it, the expanded plastic from the spent shell would extend past the cylinder and get stuck in the barrel.
My most prized possession
Single shot .22 (magazine is fake, it's just a hunk of metal)
Working the bolt doesn't cock the rifle, you have to pull the firing pin back manually
Fires 1/3 of the time
Sold it at a loss (paid 30 bucks, sold it for 10)
Looks like shit, shoots like shit, doesn't have any personality.
>>63908611 (OP)I could say joke stuff like the Zip 22, Remington R51, Armatix iP1, Charter Arms Explorer II, Felk TF919, Detonics Pocket 9, or Radom P64, but the truth is at least those are kitschy and/or maintain value. I have never been as disappointed nor burned as hard as by this thang (sorry for pic its the only one I have of this gun solo)

>>63908611 (OP)Heritage Rough Rider. It's amazing how those things even sell. They are barely firearms.

Without question, the Daniel Defense H9. I have no pics to post because I actually deleted them out of disgust. Piece of shit company as well, literally sent my keyhole maker back to me after 6 weeks "accidentally"
>>63908611 (OP)Phoenix Arms .22. I got one with the long barrel conversion kit because I thought it looked cool and it was cheap. Total piece of shit...it was a jam o matic that patterned like a shotgun.
>>63909060Lel. This is what the liberals deam as an acceptable firearm for civilians
Didn't last 1000 rounds, canik was no help. My Kel-Tec P11 is still kicking after 2200 rounds and the concaine boys have always sent me parts no questions.

>GRIP ZONE
>>63910577Did you have to pay for shipping? Did they make you keep the gun or screw you around on the refund or something? They generally have a great reputation for taking care of customers. I have a buddy who did something REALLY stupid with one of their ARs and they replaced it no questions asked.
>>63908611 (OP)For me it's a VEPR-12. Doesn't cycle anything but slugs and some heavy buck. Mags have been really spotty for feeding reliably. Recoil is absolutely ridiculous compared to any other shotgun I own. On par with this old single shot revelation 12 gauge I own.
>worst gun you've bought
hot take, but it was my 10/22. that fucking thing never ran right, it jammed constantly, i literally had FTFs or FTEs or double feeds on EVERY FUCKING MAG, and yes i cleaned and lubed it, and yes i tried all the different kinds of 22 ammo, and yes i was using standard factory mags, and no i'm not gonna do the magical fix that only requires you to buy this and that spring kit or some firing pin or send it off to ruger or whatever the fuck, shut the fuck up and suck my cock, my 10/22 was a fucking piece of shit and i sold it for 200 bucks and never looked back.
by the way, my mini 14 isnt much better lol
oh and the gp100 is overrated
there i said it
fuck ruger

>>63909133Do you use pocket wizards or a cord?
>>63910733The flash makes it irrelevant. Every shot is 1/250s or faster so there is no point to a tripod, just use the on-camera shutter button
>>63910791Sorry, I meant how are you triggering the off camera flah unit? Usually it's with a transceiver or a cord linking the flash and camera. Also, what flash are you using? Paul C Buff or something nice? You seem like you can afford Profoto or Broncolor.
>>63909133Something like this?
>>63910721My M1 Garand is my favorite rifle. Zero problems with it.
>>63909049It blows my mind that they still have not made a Raging Circuit Judge .454 Casull/.410 carbine after all these years.
>>63909060I once watched a video about traditional tribal hunter-gatherers in Taiwan who could own hunting rifles so long as they were home made, and the pieces of shit they cobbled together out of plumbing p pipes and repurposed car parts were better than that. Truly what a shit pile.
>>63910818The camera's hot-shoe automatically activates it directly, timed to the shutter
>>63910821Pretty much, though I use the built in diffusor (flip down transparent pyramid grid looking thing), and aim it backwards over my head so the light comes from behind the lens instead of above or in front where it would make harsher contrast

>>63910950I love this picture, so sexy. Model 15 is a real beautiful gun.
>>63910950Niceeee
Nope, the goal is ease of use. The only time it gets more complicated is in a bigger room I may use a second flash in master-slave configuration
>>63909724>> 63910148I bought a Ruger Super Wrangler .22lr/WMR recently and for how little I have shot the thing I was thinking โmaybe I should have just bought a Rough Rider and spent the difference on ammo and range time.โ Thanks for dissuading me of this regret.
>>63910974Thanks, anon. It's definitely Americana and holds a special place in my heart.
>>63910981Nice, the photos you post are so good I assumed they were larger studio lights. I got my 7d in 2010 and every new camera I purchased since then has been film. Fuji 690, Canon eos-1n, Mamiya RZ67 pro2...
>>63910982Rough Riders also have a reputation for internal part breakage, so you'll occasionally hear a SNAP and suddenly it won't work without a gunsmith trip. Fun times.
I got a Super Wrangler myself after hearing about the Rough Rider's problems.
Glock 36 for sure, I still like the idea but it's not a good gun. Too big for the capacity, I thought I was limp-wristing mine or something and then I look online and see multiple people complaining about cycling issues. Surprised they still even make it.
>>63908611 (OP)Grendal P30. Bought it at a pawn shop for $350 in the shit part of town because I like collecting weird ass handguns. Multiple jams per mag, the thing feels like airsoft, and the sights are vague approximations. Still interesting gun though, very much a prototype. Its my laundry room gun atm, hidden under the dryer, the absolute last line of defense against feral redguards.
>>63910724a lot of ppl actually :(
>>63911082>Glock 36i wish glock would make a version of the 36 with a full length grip and barrel, like 19-sized. think about it, a compact, single stack, 45 ACP glock with a 4 inch barrel. it would be the glock 1911. i know i'd be the only person who would buy it but still

>>63908611 (OP)i used to buy a lot of vest guns when they were still really cheap on gun broker. one piece of shit i had was a knock off of this reck p8. i didnt make it through one magazine before the slide snapped in half and flew in two different directions.
i sent it to one of those gun part buyer places and got half my money back ($30)
>>63910063im so glad i sniped one of these on gunbroker for $220 otherwise id be MAD
>>63911113Glock Perfection combined with 1911 Greatness. It would be the greatest firearm ever created. It would suck your cock and shoot fireballs.
This Stevens bolt action 20 gauge is the worst gun I've bought. I paid $85 for it thinking it was at least a functioning gun, but the stock was cracked around the single retention lug (a bolt that goes vertically through the stock and screws into the action). This caused the action to jam itself backwards in the stock when it was fired and you had to smack it forward to cycle the bolt. I got tired of this and drilled a horizontal hole through the stock to insert a bolt right behind that stock attachment lug to prevent it from slamming back in the stock, and the lug sheared off 3 shots in. I slapped some hose clamps on it to hold the action down, took it out maybe three more times, and I haven't shot it since 2015.
A very close second would be a $1300 S&W 986 PC that arrived in an unfinished condition and would barely work. I took it apart, fitted all the parts right, and it's become a very good revolver, but that's the worst new gun I've ever bought.
>>63910743What the fuck, those things were everywhere for a dollar a piece 15 years ago. I guess they dried up like everything else.
>>63911206>220Oh Fuck me now I am mad. I already had buyer's remorse the minute I left the gun shop. Now I just want to toss this thing in the garbage and pretend I didn't waste 500 on it....I knew I should have just gotten the ks7
>>63910854I have a .44 Magnum Circuit Judge, which is neat. Build quality sucks though, and accuracy is unacceptable for a hunting carbine.
>>63909066Looks like a gun someone would carry in Total Recall
While not the worst gun ever, the worst gun I've ever bought is a P82 Wanad, which comes from 1980s totalitarian communist Poland and is the kind of sidearm those goony gas-mask troopers from City-17 would carry while brutalizing people. I've had problems with the safety getting stuck, it's heavy, the ergonomics are uncomfortable, and it has a really heavy and creepy trigger pull. It was really cheap though and otherwise works. Could probably really bust someone's head open by bludgeoning him with it, which was probably the intended purpose.

Bersa .380. Crappy plastic hand grips, pain in the ass to break down, factory mags caused jams while aftermarket extended mags had no issue. Canโt sell it due to low value and dealers noting it being high risk then for a straw-purchaser to come in and grab it.
>>63911260>What the fuck, those things were everywhere for a dollar a piece 15 years ago. I guess they dried up like everything else.NOTHING in milsurp is cheap anymore, especially anything American. "Collectors" (hoarders) bought it all up and are now trying to slowly sell off their collections at gun shows at 4x+ the price they paid.
A lot of boomers and gen x preppers that bought out whole inventories of milsurp stuff when it was relatively cheap and are still sitting on it today. I remember watching my LGS selling out of their entire stock of slavshit (dozens of SKS, soviet pistols) over a work week right after sandy hook, that was the last time I ever saw anything milsurp for a good price.From what I gathered talking to the manager it was two people that bought basically the entire stock.
>>63912286That was my first handgun, it was ok for just throwing in your bag or cost pocket
>>63909165Welcome to the AI era Anon.
They are literally training the next generation to be 100% reliant on AI.
>>63908611 (OP)>What is the worst gun you've bought?There are 4 contenders for this title :
- Springfield M1A
- S&W Bodyguard
- Ruger LCP Max
- Beretta 3032
I really wanted to like the M1A. I made the mistake of thinking that if it was the civvy version of a US combat rifle it couldn't be too bad. I thought there was no way a garbage gun would be the standard rifle for infantry for any amount of time if it was garbage. I thought fucking wrong. Many folks have gone over why it's a garbage gun (myself included (more than once)). The short of it is : ammo picky, malfunctions at the drop of a hat including for being lubed incorrectly, loses zero if you disassemble it, needs very specific and specialized tools to clean/maintain, too fucking heavy for what it is, magazine insertion/removal is finicky as fuck. And and all positive hype is completely unjustified. Fucking garbage rod.
>>63912947The S&W Bodyguard had a front sight that drifted more than magnetic north over the last century; firing pin drag, and beat the shit out of the ejected brass to an extent I'm sure something was very wrong but just hadn't had time to break yet.
>>63912975Smith's customer service was about as useful as tits on a bull. Ended up trading it in toward another purchase.
Ruger's LCP Max was an absolute shit show of a gun. It malfunctioned in two differnt ways that rendered it completely useless until you field stripped it. The first malfunction was the recoil springs jamming up on eachother and becoming stuck in the compressed position, leaving the slide open and the gun non functional. To fix : field strip it, pull the springs apart, lube em up, put the gun back together. Wait about 30 or so rounds and it'll happen again.
The other malfunction was caused by the recoil guide rod being too goddamn short and slightly bent. This meant that on occasion it could get jammed in the space between the end of the slide and the recoil lug on the barrel; freezing the action entirely, and rendering the gun useless until field stripped and put back together.
Not exactly good qualities for a carry piece.
Ruger's customer support was better, in that they sent me a new recoil guide rod no questions. BUT when that didn't fix things and I returned the gun to Ruger for service they _claimed_ to have fixed it and shot 30 rounds through it without incident. However, when I got it back, it malfunctioned in exactly the way it wasn't supposed to anymore on the first shot. Ruger ended up refunding me the purchase price.
>>63913022The Beretta 3032 because even if you keep your ammo choices to the factory recommended under 130 foot pounds energy; the gun will still end up with pic related because it's a 3032 and they are all garbage. Mine had less than 2000 rounds through it. Traded it in towards another purchase.
>>63908611 (OP)SA Garrison in Stainless. I was in the market for a mid tier 1911 for in the woods. This motherfucker failed to eject every round from the start and even locked itself closed. Turns out thatโs pretty common. The serrations were so sharp I tore some skin off my finger trying to open it. I didnโt bother to send it back because Iโd never trust it. Now it collects dust because I donโt want to screw someone by selling it. Iโll never buy any Springfield Armory product again. I understand a little hiccup here and there but theyโre charging premium prices for pistols worse than ones at half the price. Fuck Springfield Armory. 1911s are their bread and butter and they fucked it up about as badly as possible.
>>63911820I have this shitty .32 stamped "HEGE WAFFEN WEST GERMANY" and it has the rollmarks from a completely different Hungarian pistol but it's an Astra Constable made in Spain. Thinking of getting Chinese characters engraved on the slide and maybe getting red grips with a dragon on it
>>63912467>NOTHING in milsurp is cheap anymore1890's Mausers will always be ~$120
>>63913073My Springfield 1911 was so shitty that I ended up swapping the slide for a Mechtech upper
It's ugly and retarded and a bit overpriced, but at least it fucking cycles
>>63908611 (OP)Easily the Type 14 Nambu. I still love it for its history and its unusual characteristics, but man it is and was an objectively terrible gun. The first problem I had was it slam-firing and running away, which was due to a weak trigger bar spring (i.e. the sear was not resetting enough to catch the striker). Then, my striker tail broke (a notoriously common problem). Then, my grip panel cracked. Then, pulling the trigger WASN'T firing because the dovetail holding the trigger assembly has enough play that pulling the trigger pushes it away from the frame enough to not release the striker. On top of that, disassembly consists of so many loose fiddly bits that 9 out of 10 Nambus you pick up WILL be missing something.
It is a cool pistol that is mechanically interesting and has surprising comfortable ergos, but it is a piece of shit.
>>63911260>level 1 firearm in a Bethesda game
>>63910606It had potential, even Langdon had a trigger kit for it. Too bad, hopefully someone makes a reasonable sized DA/SA in the future.
>>63910791>HSS>not low keywhy
>>63911466yeah thats rough. criminal that they started charging that much, its just a short mossberg is all, at least you got a working toy and not one of those turkshit shockwave knockoffs.
>>63913891>There's Turkish knock offs Now that's a horrifying thought. I wonder
>at least you got a working toyI uh..traded it. Didn't even fire the damn thing because I absolutely just hate how much I got screwed here.
>>63912467Yeah sandy hook was the last gasp of the 80s slavshit militia preppers who have dozens of SKSs and mosins sealed in tubes of cosmoline buried under the 200 acre property they paid $40,000 for.
>>63911260>$3? 10 years ago they were $1. Have the millions of enbloc clips dried up surely our money hasn't lost 70% of it's value in... Even before the coof the boomers oversaw in one generation more currency debasement than the Roman empire suffered in 400 years. Then COVID has 4 straight years where 12% inflation was just what they admitted to. That doesn't explain $700 mosin GunBroker listings but it does explain how every ubiquitous small item went from $10 to $15-20 dollars in a couple of sharp jumps.
>>63908611 (OP)A 7.62x54r Vepr. The thing wasn't super reliable with the factory 5 round mags. Bolt would randomly get stuck to the rear and I'd have to mortar it out. They changed the bolt profile midway through and it didn't work with the SGM 10 rounders or Csspec 15 rounders. 7.62x54r surplus dried up shortly after and it was up to 60 cents a round. It was big and clunky and heavy and going about putting non sporter furniture on it was a massive headache. The BelOmo PSO 4x scope I put on it was also a piece of junk. I'm just happy I was able to trade it for a Steyr AUG thanks to its value shooting up due to sanctions
>>63914935>Didn't even fire the damn thingnow you fucked up.
they're actually kind of fun if you can get in an outdoor range that you can whip it around in standing blasting some papers with bird shot.
why do folks trade guns without even firing them once smdh. i hope you got a good trade.
>>63913350I've been looking real hard at those on Gunbroker and other sites because I want a .32 PPK style pistol without paying .32 PPK style prices. When you say it's "shitty' what do you mean exactly? IIRC they're a bit heavier than a Walther, but is the trigger bad? Feed problems?
>all the ones popping up on Gunbroker recently are covered in rust and look like shit so I've been holding out for a decent one
>>63915447>they're actually kind of fun if you can get in an outdoor range that you can whip it around in standing blasting some papers with bird shot.That's the problem there aren't any in my area. The closest one is a whole county away. The only indoor range that allows shotguns flatout denied me since it was stockless. [Spoiler]I've never been so shafted

>>63910086>>63910566Isn't it already built to support those sizes?
>>63909066wtf is this shit
>>63909053Ah, the WESCO.
>>63910265That reminds me of another gun, speaking of awful trigger. Not that I've owned one but I knew someone who owned a COP 357. Holy FUCK is that trigger heavy. Past heavy. A fucking staple gun.
>>63910617Why's that? I kinda want a Mini (new mfg with the post 1980-something barrel profile that has much better accuracy).
>>63915518It functions okay, but it's kinda gritty and you have to hold down the mag release and smack the bottom of the mag to get it to lock in. Weight's the same as a PPK, maybe even lighter. I like mine.
>>63915657Ruger EC9, which is a shittier LC9, which is an LCP chambered in 9mm. It's super lightweight and poorly balanced, which means the recoil makes it basically worthless for rapid fire since the muzzle will be pointing skyward after every shot. The laser actually makes target acquisition take longer than it would with irons. Basically it's a self-defense pistol that will get you killed if you try to use it in self defense.
Saiga AKM ive waisted money "modernizing". Now I hate it and want to put normal furniture on. Want to sell it but I know im going to get fucked over by any shop
>>63908611 (OP)marlin 1894 during the remshit years. I got my serial numbers confused and bought one made right after the buy out instead of before.
barrel was canted 15*, and after about 400 rounds it acquired 'marlin jam' and started feeding two from the tube and jamming up. had to take the side plate off to clear it, dumbest shit ever. sold that bitch for a dur rifle with a leopold scope.
i think right now my worst gun I still own is a amt 25/22 lightning, little asshole hates all the mags I have and jams like a mfer. also it's started to not cock the hammer. the first shot will fire and it won't load in a new round or reset the hammer/trigger.
>>63908611 (OP)I shot the double action only version of that and it was absolute assโฆ. Itโs my father in laws gun, we were at the range finally getting to try out the 380 ppks I got him for Christmasโฆ. Ppk all day..,
>>63915740Iโd take a cop 357, even if the trigger was terrible, just for the novelty of it..
>>63915769>It functions okay, but it's kinda gritty and you have to hold down the mag release and smack the bottom of the mag to get it to lock in. Weight's the same as a PPK, maybe even lighter. I like mine.That's good to know, thank you. Anything else you might tell me about it?
>>63908611 (OP)High Standard Derringer
Piece of junk only ever fired from one barrel. Took it to a gunsmith to get it fixed, still only fired from one barrel. I was going to take it back again, but then found out I could return it for a refund from the seller.
>>63915982Gen 1 Bodyguards are all DAO.
>>63910238>Shit loves to jamSand the top of the magazine to have rounded edges or the bolt will catch on them. It won't stop all of your jams but it will run better.
>>63910063>>63910566Get an opsol mini clip, let's you cycle the minis and they are substantially nicer to shoot out of shotties like these. It's 20 dollars for a piece of rubber and you can't cycle full shells with it in but it only takes a minute to install or remove anyway. If mini shells were more common and affordable I'd only be shooting them out of my Maverick 88 cruiser. I haven't had any reliability issues with mine
>>63915638I think most mossbergs are rated for 2 3/4 and 3 out of the factory, they don't cycle mini shells very well without something like the opsol
>>63913073>>63913350Have the same issue with my Springfield 1911. I really wanted to like it and carry it (when weather allowed me to wear appropriate clothing), but I just couldn't rely on it. I've held onto it, though, since I often take no-guns friends and acquaintances shooting and have found that it's unreliability makes it a valuable tool for learning how to clear jams.
Posted this in the last thread, but I've had terrible luck with every G3/PTR-91 I've ever handled. I say "handled" because I don't own any, I work at my LGS on the weekend.
Remlin lever gun. It wasn't even that bad, but I should've just bought a Henry.
I've been pretty lucky, I research stuff into oblivion so I haven't made major mistakes. The Remlin I knew this risk, took it, and lost.
>>63918924When you say bad luck, are they like, coming back with complaints and shit, or they just look like trash in the store? What's the common issue?
>>63915946Ah, yep. There's another one, ha. I feel like sometimes I have absolute shit luck with timing because I feel like it wasn't that long after I got my Marlin that the side gate Henrys started coming out.
It's nearly 100 years old, heavy pull and the ammo is expensive as hello, light primer strikes about 30-40% of the time. Pretty much just an antique that I should never fire but whatever lol
>>63918924I hate G3's. I never had reliability issues, I just thing it's a stupid design. Hate the MP5 too.
>>63908611 (OP)A Jennings 9mm with a broken firing pin.
>>63918952Failure to feed, failure to extract, double feeds, stuck bolts. My guess is shitty QC or bad head spacing, but I'm not much of a gunsmith. It's mostly customers selling us their guns, which we try to resell, only for them to come back the day of sale or day after due to these issues. I got into a bit of an argument with the owner, who wanted to keep reselling these PTRs for 900+ dollars without disclosing the issue these particular examples had. I ended up selling two for 400 dollars a piece after telling the customer that these rifles were turds and would need serious work. He said he'd try to fix them then email the results to me. It's been a month since then and I haven't heard back from him. I have other stories too if anyone wants to hear them.

>>63918414>I think most mossbergs are rated for 2 3/4 and 3 out of the factory, they don't cycle mini shells very well without something like the opsol590 is supposedly set up for those and 1.75, and I've been thinking of getting something that reliably takes shorties since I have a bunch sitting around
Worst one by far was the keltec su16. The only keltec I ever bought and the only gun I ever sold. You know the whole thing about keltec and cocaine model trains and blah blah yeah it's real funny right? Well the memes are good but the gun is still a piece of shit. Dont let the marketing make you feel so good you actually spend hard earned money on that fisher price bullshit.
Second place probably the Ruger gp100 in 10mm, simply because autoloader revolver. The gun itself is gorgeous and built well. But yeah, don't like moon clips.
Third any over hyped piston AR
>>63909066Looks like the halo laser pistol
>>63915740>whys thatit's not a bad gun, but it is the worst gun i've paid for out of all my guns. it commonly has feed issues where i'll need to rack it 2-3 times for it to finally put a bullet in the breech every couple of mags. using anything below a 20rd mag is a pain to get it to lock properly into the magwell at times and sometimes it wont lock unless you hold open the bolt while seating it. also when trying to release the mag you have to press the mag release a few times and slightly jiggle it to have gravity help unlock it from the gun. the wood stock screws keep falling out even after tightening them down repeatedly. reassembly is a slight pain in the ass. also not as popular as the ar15 (duh), so mags are more expensive. these are all minor things, but a mini14 isn't cheap.
i do like the sights and enjoy shooting it though, but i don't think i'd buy it again if given the opportunity.
>>63910633I wish I could vouch but I changed out most of my parts on my 10/22 as soon as I got it. I fed a bx25 thru it and it didn't jam once under rapid fire
Oh but I'm not denying they come with shit build quality stock.
>>63915660Proof you have one

>>63913073So fucking glad I bought a Tisas
LCPii in 22LR didn't cycle very well, so I sold it. Bought it in .380 thinking that the extra power would help the fucking gun to cycle. I was wrong. Gotta sell this piece of shit now too.
>>63908611 (OP)heritage arms .22 revolver
that thing is a piece of shit. It is absolutely what you would and should expect from a $150 gun.
>howeverit is fun to fuck around with.
>>63919239>I have other stories too if anyone wants to hear them.alright, do tell
its funny to see all the guys who fell for the ruger meme in this thread
>>63920714It's funny to see retards tell everyone they're retards without telling them they're retards.
>>63908611 (OP)Springfield Saint 7.5" barrel
No clue why I did that
>>63908611 (OP)Sig 938. Hate that fucking thing.
>>63908821>mag disconnect I hate these. They make the pistol so much worse just so noguns retards who think โno mag=no bulletsโ can be safe(r). They really make the pistol less safe too. If you are clearing the pistol or troubleshooting some issue and need to drop the hammer now you have to insert a magazine to do so.
>>63910721>>will eject live round 7 when ejecting casing 6, closing bolt on empty chamberthats an easy fix you lazy zoomtard just get a new $5 clip latch. and replace the spring while youre at it. its like $10 in parts and 5 minute sin time to fix your shit you dont even need any special tools a paperclip can push out the retaining pin once you take the action out of the wood

>>63910576>rifling is purposely too deep so gas goes around bullet to reduce recoil for simple blowback the non civilian version is a worthless piece of shit too
>>63920530>>63910633I have two 10/22s and they both run great and theyโre both stock. Sometimes you just end up with a lemon.
>>63908611 (OP)Sig sp2340. That thing was always a pile of dicks. Very ammo sensitive, annoying to disassemble, mags were trash. Mags were also like 50 bucks a pop. And this was back when most of you were little annoying faggots your fathers regretted. Or not even born. Even after the awb expired, the 10 round mags were still pretty much all you could find. And holsters were non existent
>>63915657How fucking young are you?
>>63913073That's a barrel fitment issue. I have a Para P14-45 that does that with a spare Bar-Sto barrel but not the factory one.
>>63921274This post was written by lady hands.
>>63921422I have an SP2022, and itโs pretty good. The mag selection is quite fucked, but itโs a decent gun. I didnโt have issues with the ammo I sent through it. My version is the one with the internal extractor.
>>63908611 (OP)>First handgun was a Hudson H9. Objectively it is a solid handgun but it shoots low, I hate that crunchy spongey striker trigger, and I don't wanna break anything. 3 mags is all I ran through it and then I got a P01 I tuned up instead. >Ljungman/my 6.5 AR10 build are both good but both need work and I am too lazy>Not a gun but a part, I got an Apollo Max brake for a BRN180 and made it 3 rounds at the range with it on before I took it off on the spot and gave it to a friend.
>>63910063Put a stock on it, instant super handy shotgun.
>>63910265I heard theybsuck but still think they look cool.
>>63921343Shoots like crap, wiggles like crap, super inaccurate, has a false reset, lost 50% value immediately
If I bought a plastic one for $250 I'd be satisfied if not happy with it, the plastic one seems better anyway since it's thinner and you can use the backstrap
>>63920536 >Turkshit 1911
Screw you and your jamomatic
>>63921359How would you know? They don't sell those to civilians even if you're licensed
>>63922563>Put a stock on it, instant super handy shotgun. That's the first thing I thought of doing before selling it lol. But i don't feel like going through another background check, the atf registry, and paying the 200 tax stamp
>>63922861>But i don't feel like going through another background check, the atf registry, and paying the 200 tax stampSo don't lol

>>63910627VEPR is picky, it wont cycle white box or cheap shit, and drum mags are retardedly expensive.
>>63925261>>63922965>>63922861If literally every gun owner ignored this stupid ass law, it would become unenforcable and irrelevant and would fade away, like weed laws
>>63908611 (OP)Rossi RS22 for a crisp hundo new and it fucking rules. Love that thing
>technicallyUnbrandedAR/Zro Delta lower receiver that is out of spec in about three critical ways
Makarov. Absolute piece of shit, terrible trigger, shit mags that get stuck in my shit heap. Can't even get rid of it via consignment because the serial number is so fucking faded.
>>63925738Mine sucks too, the sights are crap, but it's so iconic and cool that it almost makes up for the fact I never actually shoot it and just carry it on my hip when I'm doing STALKER larp
>>63925638it's a brick and the 10 round mags dont take 10 rounds, but the recoil is not bad
>>63908611 (OP)Not bought but inherited a High Standard .22 revolver from my Dad that is unbelievably innacurate.
Still treasure it, still love him, still miss him.
>>63910566>>63915638>>63918414>get an OPSOLLOL, get with the times old man.
Defender Tactical sells a 500/590 modification you fit in to make any Mossberg pump or Mav88 cycle minis to 3 inchers for $40 (better than the OPSOL which is minis only).
The 590S or any Shockwave built off of a 590S will do the same, but will cost you more that's all.
Minishells have much less kick, but with Federal slugs, you can fit 9 in the Shockwave's tube instead of four or five of the 3 inchers or 2ยพ inch shells.
>>63926195I shoot it better than any other handgun I own, but it stovepipes so much when other handguns treated exactly the same don't, and for some reason the slide catch on last round just stopped working, I suspect because of weak magazine springs. Kept the magazines fully loaded, like I do every other handgun, but never had this problem before. I get .45 glocks might be exceptionally bad but the gun has turned me off from ever buying another.
>>63908611 (OP)I only buy good shit
>>63925261I didnโt say be naughty, Iโm anal enough I didnโt feel like getting all my guns seized if I ever had to use it.
>>63925702My ex gf bought one, it was nice enough for the price for sure.
>>63926237That's a shame. Is the bore rusted out or something?
>>63925636Yeah and a bunch of people would get prosecuted and thrown in prison for felonies before that happened. Are you volunteering for your life to get ruined to enact minor political change?
Briefly had a Stoeger Luger .22 where the brass would eject and get stuck underneath the fake toggle arm and behind the blowback slide and lock the whole damn thing up, usually with a live round in the chamber
>>63928392Me? No, never, all of my guns are legal, officer
>>63928599That's what I thought.
>>63925636Jesus man shut the fuck up. If you're gonna be criminal at least be one that keeps his mouth shut
>>63927550Weird, I've had no issues with my Glock 30 or my 21.
>>63910721I want to like mine that was converted to 7.62N by Arlington Ordinance. But I have constantly had issues with it where it fails to chamber a round. It doesn't even make an effort to pick up a round. I have replaced the mainspring, I put one of those 'dynamic' gas plugs in it, I have made sure the lifter is working properly, even even made sure the op rod wasn't bent. I have no idea why I can't get it to work right, yet I cant ever bring myself to sell it. The last thing I could think to try would be to get some new clips, but
>>63910743 anon touched on why I haven't bothered to do so.
>>63909066same here except i like the way it looks and i think the tigger is awesome
the size, looks, trigger, and everything is great but the sights are absolute dogshit and even then, its just insanely inaccurate
i can nail targets with other pistols, including a ppks, but i can barely hit the target with the EC9
>>63910576>Damn shame the civilian model is a poseven the version with the stock that gives it the 3 round burst sucks ass
the forgotten weapons video on it shows that the recoil is enough that you can land the first shot in the burst with it but the other 2 just become strays
>>63922776ive made it past 2k rounds in my tisas, only had 2 times it was jamming on me
the first was the first couple of mags but i think just breaking it in smoothed off the bits with poor craftmanship and it ran reliably after i put 100 rounds through it and cleaned it
the other time it jammed one me was when i decided i was going to exclusively run the cheapest shit i could find through it and not clean it until it was jamming basically every round, it was able to make it about 500-600 rounds of questionable reloads and russian/turkshit ammo before it started to jam, purely from carbon and unrburnt powder building up in it
cleaned it after that and haven't had an issue since
EAA witness
shitty polymer framed clone of a cz75, first pistol i bought because i didnt know any better
stippling on it and just the general feel of it in your hand is ass, shoots pretty good though
what i really didnt like about it and what made me sell it was when i got more serious about shooting was when i was at the range in the summer and only ran like 60 rounds through it the frame had started to get soft enough that i could start to bend it with just my fingers & the safety/slide release also felt like it was stretching the frame when i used it
sold it after that because i got spooked that gun was just going to melt and possibly send the slide just going backwards at me when it melted through the frame
>>63913022Damn shame on the Max. I was hoping to get one as a pocket carry.
>>63908770You can hold the hammer down with your thumb and yank the strip out, and it turns your six gun into a machine gun.
>>63933684i have a max and love it. i've shot several LCP2s with no problems either.
>>63909033No shit, retard. Caniks and Tisas are G2G. Same with the MKE MP5 clones.
>laughs in barely works
yeah don't get me started on a semi auto bren but I have one and you dont
>>63934601That's cool, how much was it?
>>63920536Bro Tisas are the only 1911s that AREN'T jammomatics
>>63935597Tell me you don't own a 1911 without telling me you don't own a 1911.
I own three.
A Sig Sauer Nightmare Fastback
A Springfield Ronin
A Fusion Firearms Reaction
The Sig and the Springfield are both .45s. The Fusion is my meme machine, chambered in 10mm. With a barrel and spring swap I can shoot 40 S&W, 357 Sig, and 9x25 Dillon. Of the three, the only one that jams is the Fusion; but that is rarely, and only when shooting 357 Sig. The problem there is that 357 Sig is just too damn short for the mag well/magazine and so it can sometimes nosedive when feeding and jam below the feed ramp.

>>63928392I canโt believe stoner junkies are braver than people who own tons of guns.
>>63935693Good for you, whale, you paid $4000 for $1200 worth of shitty pistol
>>63935693>A boomer is showing off his new 1911 to his buddies. "It's got a lightweight frame and a skeletonized hammer and a polished feed ramp and it only jams one out of 50 rounds and it's the limited edition version that has a Punisher skull with Trump's hair on the slide! Bought it from Jerusalem Munitions for $1800!">His friend says, "Bubba, you've been cheated! Tel Aviv Arms is selling that same pistol for $2800!"
I got drunk and bought a break action Sears 7 shot .22 revolver off Gunbroker because I was watching the movie ะpaั and the guy had one
Haven't got it yet, but it will almost certainly suck balls
>>63915518Look at the feg 32s on Atlantic's surplus section, usually have them and are in solid condition for a reasonable price:
atlanticfirearms.com/surplus-pistols?criteria%5Bavailability%5D=in_stock&limit=99999&q=Availability-In+stock
>>63935977This has happened to me almost exactly, 1911s suck except for military spec .45s.
>Brother check out my super ultra TACTICAL 1911 it cost $2500!>fire>fire>*jam*>uhhh hope nobody saw>fire>fire>fire>*jam*
>>63933103Holy shit and here I'm worried about that same thing happening in the heat on my resin furniture/replacement parts project. Unknown to me I was being more dilligent in my materials selection than whoever the fuck chose the polymer blend at the factory that EAA imports guns from, LOL.
>>63936029Might be an H&R? Actually might be decent if so, similar to a Sportsman 999. Sears had many guns rebranded as Sears, JC Higgins, and IIRC one other name. Anything from High Standard to H&R to Marlin/Glenfield and more. Sometimes as a special Sears exclusive variant of that model, too, IIRC.

>then the plastic rear sight snapped in half from folding it, had to order replacement
>entire plastic pistol grip of the gun seperated at the center seam, cracking down the middle

>despite all this, the thing ran 100% reliably no matter how hard I tried to make it jam with underloaded reloads, steel case, cheap sterling and tula ammo, it liked it and it was accurate so i can't hate it that much
Davis .380

>horrendous trigger but still fun to shoot somehow
>on the 7th mag shot, entire front half of the gun blew off downrange with the bullet
>>63935812Stoner junkies have nothing to lose and thus don't care much if they go to prison. Gun people tend to have their lives in order and don't want to implode it for a flimsy reason.
Bump, I want to see more dogshit
My crappy judge is the only revolver I've ever had jam on me
My poor Star with a broken barrel link and the pin that went through the link bending upon replacing the link with a brand new US made one I personally fit. Oh boy is it a basketcase but one day I think I'll get some new US made springs and a slide stop replacement for it. It was everything I wanted (the same thing in doublestack would've been nice though) and it just didn't work out. Also that backstrap could be a lot flatter and fatter and it'd greatly increase comfort.
>>63941216There was never a more aptly-named pistol than the Star BM.
>>63910063>Not sure what to do with it anymoreGet gud with it and put a bungee sling on the hand grip loop so you can carry it under a jacket for larping purposes.
>>63908611 (OP)The 2.0 is a lot better
>>63912947>- Ruger LCP MaxAgreed and I say this as someone who actually really likes the Ruger LCP (single stack) for basically just being an improved Kel-tec p32 but with bigger boolet. Pretty much everyone else in the industry just does the half double mags better honestly.
>- Beretta 3032The original or the 30X that doesn't crack as easily?
>>63909724>>63910982I was for a brief period of time actually considering getting a Heritage Barkeep simply because they look funny but decided against it as an NAA revolver is even more comically smol and actually still very utilitarian so that will probably be a future purchase I make.
Speaking of Brazilium are Taurus revolvers still bad?
>>63941712>are Taurus revolvers still bad?They can be pretty decent; I like this snub .38 more than I like my LCRX or my Detective Special. I also have a Raging Hunter that's pretty cool.
The problem with Taurus is a. they don't do quality control before they ship it out, and b. there's one guy at the factory who's legit fucking retarded and makes shitty guns. When you buy a new Taurus, 9 times out of 10 you'll get a solid gun, and the tenth time you'll get a broken piece of shit. I had a Judge that locked up constantly and I have a Circuit Judge .44 Magnum
