Wait what?

Anyone tried one of the newer pm4 songbirds with a buffer for centerfire ammo? Docs say it will handle magnums but I haven't heard of anyone trying. I remixed one striker fired, but the soviet primers are too hard to pop for the barrel I jinned up.

Anon this is absolutely fucking brilliant.
I can't believe I have never thought of this before.

>>63958915
got any information on how the propaganda delivery device works? I get that its some sort of fuze or nose cone but i dont know what sort of compounds or electronics its supposed to use

>>63960289
As far as I can tell it's a ramset or primer in the tip of the payload with an 8-10mm M3 screw in the nosecone
Nosecone hits something, screw hits ramset/primer, ramset/primer sets off whatever is in the delivery device payload
The readme and instructions are pretty spartan, but it seems fairly simple

>>63959225

He was on a focus tripp group chat recently, and seemed like he was doing better.

>>63960338
The image doesn't really make much sense. Even if it's in the impact stage, you should at least see a compressed spring. I doubt it'd trigger without one, with just the screw enclosed flush (or even caved in) in the nose. You'd have to heavily rely on weight to overcome the inertia force driving the screw out upon impact and break open the nose to push the screw back into the primary explosive.

And I can't stress enough how nice it would be if we'd start seeing some actual DIY fuzes with say piezo igniters from gas lighters or even just a clump of matches rubbing against some cleverly designed enclosing striker surface, instead of the usual primers that aren't quite that accessible outside the US.

>>63960955
(variation)

>>63960955
What?
The M3 screw is threaded into the nose cone and when impacting is driven into the ramset/primer sitting right below it.
The image I posted shows the pusher in purple, payload capsule in blue and the nosecone in orange.
It's more meant for simple and cheap stuff like flash powder or black power
If your payload isn't a primary, like I said(>>63959210) you should look into NAP and all of Dugan's videos. Really nice stuff.

>>63957286
Natural PEEK isn't that color and no one can print it. My guess is it's just brown PLA/PETG.

Polymaker has a bigger sale on their own website and none of the other filaments on Amazon are actually on sale. If you're going to use nylon, use PA612-CF.

>>63964307
Don't use this stuff for anything structural, it will flex and creep. It's good for making cheap non functional prototypes for checking clearances, just be sure you compensate for differences in shrinkage between that filament and what you'll use for the functional prints.

>>63964473
PLA+ is extremely brand dependent since there's no standard for what the + is. Some of it is bog-standard PLA, most of it is blended with something I can't recall that makes it flexible and extremely creep prone, the good stuff I believe is blended with PBT which makes it impact resistant without destroying its other properties. I could have that backwards though, maybe it's PBT that makes it shitty. I know Polymaker PLA Pro and PolyMax are the good stuff, I think Inland Tough PLA is as well, and I know there's lots of other brands out there but I couldn't tell you which. All of the stuff that's under $15/kg normally is going to be either brittle or weak and not suitable for reliable firearms.

>>63964039
I made a legolini that's fun, it's not too strong but that's probably because I made it out of whatever semi appropriate trash I could find in my garage rather than buying proper tubing. I have yet to buy a model, I'm kind of opposed to paying for them.

The NFA is a drag, but all my homies hate the undetecable firearms act

>>63963469
the thing i hate the most about legislation about """ghost guns""" is that it doesnt actually hurt people willing to 3d print their guns at all because they're not the type to ever comply with it to begin with
instead it hurts milsurp fags who want to build rare and collectable guns from demilled kits

>>63963469
>least favorite regulation
I would like supressors deregulated enough that homemade suppressors are 100% legal. In general all NFA items should be legal to own and homemake without a tax stamp, and said tax stamp would only be for the first sale. In general, I don't like the serialization requirement.

>>63963971
That's pretty cool, I'm curious why there aren't more centerfire projects without using parts kits. Probably the difficulty, what do you plan on using for a barrel?

>>63963993

>>63967487
Ah, pic related, ecmed?

>>63966860
Every such law only affects people who respect the law. They're all bullshit and always have been.

>>63966772
That's not how the undetectable firearms act works.
>(1) It shall be unlawful for any person to manufacture, import, sell, ship, deliver, possess, transfer, or receive any firearm—
>(A) that, after removal of grips, stocks, and magazines, is not as detectable as the Security Exemplar, by walk-through metal detectors calibrated and operated to detect the Security Exemplar; or
>(B) any major component of which, when subjected to inspection by the types of x-ray machines commonly used at airports, does not generate an image that accurately depicts the shape of the component. Barium sulfate or other compounds may be used in the fabrication of the component.
It has to appear gun-shaped when it's viewed in an x-ray and it must be detected by any machine that can detect the exemplar, which is 3.7 ounces of stainless steel in the shape of a gun. Just sticking a 3.7 oz steel weight in the grip doesn't fit the rule because it's not gun-shaped, but you can potentially use much less metal if you, say, inlay a smaller amount of steel wire that follows the shape of the printed frame and is still enough to trigger a metal detector.

>>63967900
Ah but it is you that are mistaken. Plastic is visible in airport x-ray machines, so your gun would still look like a gun. I don't know enough about pulse induction metal detection to say definitively that a wire frame, what would effectively be an antenna, wouldn't perform as well or better than a 3.7oz chunk, but settings are adjustable on those and they don't go off every time a bra wire passes through. I don't think anyone has ever been charged with it, but best practices are ~4oz of steel in your privately made firearm.

>>63965283

If you reside in a state (in the states) that frowns on the truest expression of the 2nd amendment, federal agencies like homeland will monitor sales of gun parts and inform local law enforcement. If you live somewhere without ghost gun laws it's no big deal. Other countries vary widely in their intelligence apparatus, they might track all the orders from china, they might depend on people posting pics on their socials, or they might do nothing.

The reamer method is button rifling, you can buy accurate rifling buttons or diy them but driving them through a rifle barrel requires a large press. Smaller barrels you can get away with a large vise. That's where ecm shines, not requiring large shop equipment, I'm not sure how well it can do chambers though.

>>63968484
People seem to be moving to nylons which require enclosures and hotter hotends, might be something to keep in mind to future proof yourself, but if you get into it you'll undoubtedly end up with more than one printer. I got an a1mini for $200 and have been very impressed with it, if I stick it in a box it prints abs, there are mods to make it run hotter, the only things that've been too larger for the bed were the amigo grande and the v4 plastikof.

>>63968484
>>63968885
The size of these small printers seems very limiting, or is it ok to split parts and glue them together? I was looking at an Ideaformer belt-printer but its significantly more expensive then the small sized FDM printers.

>>63968969
>The size of these small printers seems very limiting
It kind of is, but isn't insurmountable, I do find myself contorting things to get them on the plate, especially when I'm designing things but I can usually get them on. I haven't tried glueing anything structural together. I've read superglue is supposed to be a stronger bond than than the original plastic but haven't found that to be the case, I've also read that epoxy is supposed to work but haven't experimented much with that.

>>63968463
plastic sights?

>>63968969
>Ideaformer belt-printer
Looks kind of gimmicky, are there things you need to batch produce?

>>63971041
belts

>>63969023
yes, including the mounting screws and the sight adjustment ones
its going to be impossible to zero because it isn't even going to be able to handle the recoil with all the screws moving and even if it did somehow, its going to start to warp the plastic after 30 rounds

the only 'saving grace' it has is the troon is running a bear creek upper and he is running 10 round mags(even though he isn't in california) so it may jam so often that the handguard stays cool due to how little shooting it can do

Whose laws are they/them trying to comply with? In CA all you have to do to is affix the magazine if you're going to have "assault weapon" features. And for the past 8 years or so all lowers, printed or milled or store bought, have been required to have a DOJ-issued serial number; why go through the trouble of printing a shitty lower and applying for a serial number?

>>63983652
There isn't any benefit to release besides rep and fighting gun control, and I understand the concern for saftey, either because people are genuinely worried for others or they don't want further crackdowns from kids blowing their fingers off. Some of the posts made by "people" with printers are pretty scary, kind of shocking they can even use a computer or phone at the level nessecary to make a post.

>>63986376
Ps1 is on sale for $700 now on the bambu site, you could probably get away with a cheaper printer, even small ones can do ars.

That's the thing, I think it's what destroyed mine, only lasted one shot. And jotted itself forward downrange during a test. The .22 gremlin worked, but was never reliable. Pilot geeks .22 was WAY better and works fantastic still.

put together a 3d2a glock 19 frame and not sure if this is normal. this is only if I rack it softly. it goes into battery just fine if I rack it like I should, it just irks me a bit. I dont have an actual glock to compare it to since I carry a p01.

I'm curious about these K98 clones using an AR barrel.

>>64003556
You're talking about his maverick right? Not the pg22 aurora? I printed one side and stopped, the frame just disagreed with my hand. The engineering on the maverick is great though, that's the action I used for my songbird, with a few changes to the trigger geometry it's excellent. The ergos on the original leave a little to be desired, even for my small hands it's a little tough to access the trigger in that tiny guard.

>>64003867

In my experience, Stubbs is very open about his designs and their teething issues but he also guards his time (doesn't endlessly interact with people). I'm sure you can just ask him about safety testing.

Tested my first printed Glock today.
Tried overture "rock" texture PLA, with the latest generation of AA's 22lr kits in G26 size.
Cycled through 20 rounds from 4 different brands, not a single failure to feed, fire, or eject, I was honestly super impressed nothing went wrong.
It was surprisingly snappy, I think they lightened the slide a bunch to make sure it'll work with an optic on top. We'll see how it feels with one in a couple days, waiting for an RDS and adapter plate to get here.

You could make a torrent or similar. It's also worth checking whether The Eye had 3pn in its seed list of "extremist" channels that were being continuously mirrored. I might have (stale) archives but I haven't checked.

The 3pn admins won't discuss what happened outside of DM, and it came right on the heels of a PBS Frontline docu called "Terrorgram" which included shots of a researcher with a network diagram of chats behind them on screen featuring 3pn. They were gloating a bit about it, right before shuttering.

You can probably put two and two together about the sort of trouble afoot.

I've had two people tell me about it. One guy just had to tap on the stock to get it to go off.

>>64017469
You guys that print guns out of weird textured filaments are fucking insane. They all have completely compromised properties, you might as well print it out of hot glue.

>>64018360
Frankly I'm a little surprised it survived at all, I expected it'd crack around the pins.
I wasn't being gentle either, five of those rounds were whatever "hyper" modifier CCI calls their 1300fps stuff by.
I wasn't necessarily going for the texture, I used that filament in another project (the color change scheme is neat, patterned after geothermal pool colors at Yellowstone), and just had it loaded into the printer already, figured I'd just try it and see what happens.
In any event, it's a 22lr hombre, not exactly major power factor, don't really think it's insane at all.
If it crumbles to pieces, I just print another.
Worst thing that is going to happen is it launches the slide ten yards downrange and I need to spend hours trying to find all the little pins.

>>64018762
Worst case it launches the slide into your face and then it bounces ten yards downrange. .22 or not, I don't want flying gun parts anywhere near my face. It looks like it's already cracking at the trigger guard.

>>64018770
>Worst case it launches the slide into your face
With the way it is designed (all Glocks really), any catastrophic failure rearward with the slide nailing you in the dome first requires the recoil spring to be fully compressed, then somehow still having enough energy to rip the front rails out, rip the locking block out, then rip the rear steel rails/grip reinforcement out of the frame, through the web of your hand.
In short, with a 22lr, it ain't happening chief.
Launching it forward though is a definite possibility. They're designed to be taken apart that way in the first place, and it's only one little funny plate at an angle that keeps it in check.

>>64018770
I should note it is in fact cracked at the trigger guard, that was my mistake after printing.
Got a little overzealous with snips cutting out supports and forced it the wrong way.
Probably could stand to be a little thicker there.

>>64018883
It doesn't require all that, it just requires your incredibly brittle plastic with poor layer adhesion to shear along the layer lines just above your hand. Glock brand Glocks don't have that problem because they're not made out of reprocessed yogurt with chalk and sand added for texture.

>>64018901
Tell me more anon, I'm going to need you to break it down into more basic, simple English.

Any good spots to test poorly thought out prototypes in the greater Tampa area?

Forget where I saw this. Could anyone tell me what was used for this to be transparent?

>>64019781
Natural HIPS

>>63987441
> Urutau mentioned
Haven't seen it get enough love yet so I'm gonna talk about it because I think it's cool. It's a select-fire, bullpup SMG that feeds from evo 3 magazines. The internals pull a lot from the p-90 and unlike the FGC-9, it requires no welding.

>>63959027
The easiest (shittiest) way to do an impact fuse is 22 nailgun blanks in an inward-pointing cone.

Anyway, speaking of 22, have there been any updates on the print in place revolver since last thread?

Let's say I want to acquire 9x19 ammo.
In my country, gunpowder and primers are licensed. I don't meet the requirements for a license.
I can buy casings and bullets without restrictions. I can acquire gunpowder from nailgun blanks. But reloading primers? That's quite hard. I tried to do one and it didn't work (armstrong mixture, though the matchsticks I sourced it from were shitty)
And extracting the priming powder from nailgun blanks proved to be hard.
What do?

>>64020568
Can it be made semi-auto? Very few people are going to post full fun guns they've made clandestinely when glowies are itching to track them down. There are also a few fcg9 variants that don't require welding, the nutty9, hulkhogans fcg9z and those seem to better conform to current US law.

Ivan's what about ammo project details how to harvest priming compound from ramset blanks to remanufacture primers

>>64020806
>Ivan's what about ammo project details how to harvest priming compound from ramset blanks to remanufacture primers
I know, I know. I read it and I have all of the stuff saved. I tried scraping the priming powder out of a 5.6x16 blank, a 6.8x18 one and it didn't work. Is it a skill issue or were the blanks wrong? I can't buy any other ones. Also, they deliberately make them HARD to ignite. There's practically little to no priming powder there, you have to hit the blank multiple times with a hammer for it to ignite. It's basically shitty by design so that you can't use it as a cartridge and attach a bullet to it. Well, gun control won.. I could try faking a gun license and buying the primers from hunters in private but that's dangerous.

>>64020853
might be that they make them weak, but firing pin shape is important, they are meant to be somewhat shock resistant so a hammer isn't a good test impact. there are various tips to give them a little more kick, or increase sensitivity, add a little smokeless powder or ground glass. i don't have any first hand experience, i can just buy primers at garage sales. there is endless reading on the subject if you think that might be a way forward.

https://forum.308ar.com/topic/20421-reloading-primers/
there is also the possibility of pic related, or you may have to look into suckboytony's printed black powder gun.

>>64021218
I've also made your picrel, it's easier than digging out the anvil out of a primer but they're too damn insensitive and there are a lot of duds (fucking chinese), it just does not ignite, too unreliable
Even the reviews for the nailgun blanks for its intended purpose (e.g. using in a nailgun) are all shit, everyone complains about duds and misfires, have to cock the nailgun multiple times
All I want is a self-loading gun.. Fuck gun control, but it does actually work
If I was in china/japan/south korea it'd be extra hopeless but I'm in eastern yurop

>>64021274
and we also don't even have strike anywhere matches, they're fucking illegal (just scrape the compound of them and you have a ready primer compound), only safety ones and they're deliberately shitty so that you cant make armstrong mixture reliably

>>64019781
I remember this one (I think?), dude said he printed it with "SunLu transparent pla+" or something?
I remember it specifically because his iteration here came out super transparent compared to other examples I've seen and I was impressed by it.

>>64021303
That's what it looks like to me, although I think the backlighting is cheating a little. This is sunlu transparent pla+ printed at normal pla settings, if you go very very slow with no fans you can get it clearer. The best is supposed to be petg for clarity but that's not great for 3d2nd. It still seems more brittle than their colored pla+.

>>64021274
in czechia and poland black powder are legal, black powder primers maybe? eastern europe could mean a lot of countries

>>64021783
Russia pioneered strict gun control and yet you can own almost anything aside from pistols/full auto with a license
black powder primers as in primers for black powder primers as caps? I should try using caps from toy cap guns...

>>64021433
Yeah, definitely cheating a little with the light, but having tried a few others it seems like that might unfortunately be the best pla+ option.
I've been thinking about it on and off for a while and am curious if you might get a better result with thicker layers. You'd lose a degree of resolution but there would be less later lines to cloud the resulting object.
I've had a spool of Sunlu in my Amazon cart for a while now, might have to just try it out.

>>64021838
Here are a bunch of tips for getting prints clearer, and you might want to look at jayo pla+ afik it's the same company and sometimes cheaper.

What's the other one leaning against the printer?

>>64021932
Have you never seen an AR before, anon?

>>64007154
So I'm printing a stock VSG action for reference right now, and holy shit was none of this designed to be 3d printed. I'll be fixing most of that (obviously the bolt carrier has to be a hollow tube and there's no way around that), but I'm really curious how he intended for all of these parts to be oriented since there's no guidance on printing in the directions.

>>64022083
He specifically said do not ask for print settings or orientation because he won't provide them
Now choose between your scope rails steering off or your receiver tube snapping in half pleb (print evection port down)

>>64021940
Is that Chinese? I'll chalk it up to the image loading slow and expecting it to be a second 3d printed gun. A different take on an Orca or something.

>>64020806
Semi auto is the only way it is right now. Not for long though, or it's been released and I'm just too tired lol.

>>64022296
Better pic of the lower, not sure what model it is.

>>64022188
I ended up printing the feed port down and just cut off the trigger pivot and recoil lug and glued them on since I'm not making a real gun out of it. Printing it on end with the barrel side down seems the most viable to me (although I didn't do that because I'd fucking scream if it got all the way to the tang and then broke off the bed) but he's clearly not doing that since he's printing it split a third of the way down the length and then pinning the halves together. I'm legitimately baffled. Maybe he's printing them resin-style with all supports, no bed contact? That's got to be the way he's doing the bolt carrier, there's not a single flat surface on the entire thing.

>>64022296
It's a Hoffman Super Lower v2 with a normal metal upper. Looks like it's got a pistol brace for a stock.

>>64006541
Make in 45-70 and call it the ladyboy home companion.

>>63971263
checks out

Luckily I print multiples

>>64021798
yes, I don't know about russia, but black powder caps are probably most reliable if you can get them. Also probably getting a gun licence is a lot easier than what you are trying to do. Most those prints are american and based on fact you have access of barrels and ammo, so they are mostly useless outside US

>>64023643
The "resistance" 3d printing is a factor, but we Americans sometimes want to build our totally legal unregistered homemade firearm because it is a fun hobby.

>>64021280
time to learn basic inorganic chemistry I guess

>>64023643
we don't have those and yeah, getting a license is easier
>>64023897
this is so fucked
make the primer compound
extract the fired primer from ammo that is boxer primed (a lot of ammo here is berdan primed)
extract the anvil
put the compound in
put the anvil in
prime the casing
get nailgun blank
extract the powder
put powder in casing
press the bullet in
I just want to shoot guns for fuck's sake it's easier to go to a range honestly
or get a license to buy ANY primers legally

Hi, anons,

Sorry if this is shilling but it's me, that dev that made a thread a few weeks ago asking about weird and shopped guns you wanted to see get added to a videogame. I thought I'd post a clip since I went and implemented a whole bunch of them.

>>64025020
very nice! engine?

>>64025032
Godot. The whole thing is open source on github, you should be able to find it if you look up "Sylphstream"

>>64022593
Oh cool, thanks.

>>64006541
Shit. It didn't blow up, shaved some lead on the front hardware but kept on trucking. I'm going to have to actually put in some work now.

>>64022758
No. Its already got a name.

>>64025020
Neat.

>>64025020
Put the Y22HH & 4 Banger in that.
Nice progress m8.

>>64027125
Have you gotten a 4 banger running?

>>64027283
Yes. Disassembled temporarily to reuse barrel liners for personal project, but will rebuild the barrel sometime when I got more money.
I think I did use a different spring then what was recommended. Can't remember.

>>64022083
I finished printing all of the action parts and holy shit, it's a shitshow. The cocking piece grounds out on the receiver before engaging the cam on the back of the bolt so there's nothing keeping it from firing out of battery, the safety housing doesn't thread down far enough on the bolt so it just sort of dangles off the end of the gun when the bolt is closed and tends to jam up when locking and unlocking the bolt (and it's shouldering out inside the bolt, so it's not as simple as cutting a piece shorter or tapping another piece), and the pillars aren't long enough so the magazine is jammed deep into the action and locks up the bolt.

>>64027752
You're having the exact same experience I did

>>64023651
well in my country it's 7 years in jail for that. Also barrels and bullets also need gun licence. But it's still better than California, gun licence costs like 700$, takes about few months and I can get pretty much anything up to 50bmg and if you are extra rich full auto is also possible. 40mm 3d printed rounds with blanks are cool tho

>>63963971
Neat. How are you going to do extraction? Making an extractor is the one thing that I can’t conceptualize

>>64017668
>I've had two people tell me about it. One guy just had to tap on the stock to get it to go off.
Honesty, this checks out, given that it’s literally a 1:1 Mauser style sear system, but in plastic

What's the verdict on the FGC-9? Is it a good gun?

>>64027923
there's different variants around like the one with the integral suppressor called partisan or the completly different one with a much better manual called urutau

>>64027809
Still sucks ass.
>>64028447
1,400rds and counting. i'd say it makes the cut if you make it right.

>>64028543
>1,400rds and counting. i'd say it makes the cut if you make it right.
What is your bolt choice? Welded, Nutty-9? Are you using stock Glock 17 mags? Did you have to maintain the trigger assembly?

>>64028543
Also, barrel? Smoothbore/rifled? Did you do ECM? Are you american? How did you acquire ammo I mean? Do you experience OOB often?

>>64028552
OG fgc-9 mk2 bolt, welded. Though my non welded is doing well at 400 rds or whatever it is at.
Didn't mess with the nutty 9 yet due to BLC.
I originally used a printed FGC that lasted 200 something odd rounds, replaced it. then was able to get a hold of a metal FGC.
Now use the CM-1 and it's at 450 rds with that group. Very good.
>Mags
Still using my shitty menedez mags printed in ASA/PET. Have a few legit glock mags too.
>>64028562
ECM rifled.
>Ammo
I can get 9mm, but it's not easy or cheap usually. (I have gotten lucky)
But I do reload w/hilti's sometimes. But homemade Black powder actually works well and cycles the gun just fine. Just need to clean it!

>>64028562
>Forgot to answer OOB question.
Never. I was very careful to make sure the chamber was smooth and that the bolt was free flowing.

>>64028577
>>64028583
Which country? A metal fire control group? How? CNC machining? Stock AR-15?
Did you do ECM yourself?
Can you buy primers without a license?

>>64028587
>Nation
Qaddafi's libya.
>Metal FGC
A real AR-15 FGC. I didn't make it.
>Primers
Not hard to get. Just expensive.

>>64028587
Oh, yes, I did ECM by myself. That's how you do it.

>>64028596
>Not hard to get. Just expensive.
Where I live you need a license and people who have a license probably won't buy them due to the fear of me being a ukraine aligned terror cell member
Happy for you though, you're a real one

>>64028607
Thanks m8.
You can get into homemade muzzloaders as a stop gap. And there is the Y22/Yeet 22's that are pretty great. And go around to old military places and rummage around near derelict shooting ranges. You can get lucky near the firing line (Don't get caught tho) and the end too.
>Ukraine
Lol, just shit on zelensky. No one even likes him anymore.
And get a life if you don't have one, interact with people in good ways and build up relationships with the people around you (Don't sperg and tell tho) and you may be surprised what you find or can get a hold of. And it also means you look good to people around you.

>>64028621
>You can get into homemade muzzloaders as a stop gap.
Self-loaders are better, YH22 needs .22 which I can't get even if I convert blanks (blanks are deisgned to be shitty here)
>>64028621
>Lol, just shit on zelensky. No one even likes him anymore.
I'm in Russia sadly, that won't help me, and gun control is strict here

>>64028635
Oh, since that's the case, you can for sure find ammo if you dig around. songbird centerfire can be converted to 9x18 with some effort. ECM exists for it too. I even make homemade 7.62 tok here since it's quite common.
But honestly, if you are not a schizo to people, just get the license if you are just interested in guns. You can make them too.
There is also the some older designs... Like the Gopnik which uses homemade ammo. There are some others too.

>>64027888
Either
> Small pin inside the bolt that gets pushed out when the bolt travels out, pushing on the casing
or
> Small pin inside the frame of the gun that the bolt has a cutout for, which does the same thing

>>64028666
>But honestly, if you are not a schizo to people, just get the license if you are just interested in guns.
That's exactly the case, I'm a 100% certified schizo and I can't get a license
>Oh, since that's the case, you can for sure find ammo if you dig around.
We're not some 3rd world shithole like the propaganda makes you believe, ammo doesn't just lay around everywhere
A self-loading gun needs primers, there's no way to get primers..

>>64028680
Well I'll give you my experience, I was near a novogrod when I visited many years ago, there was ammo just laying in the dirt near a old shooting range that the old military used a bit outside the city, sure, these may not exist where you live. But I've found tons of 9x18 fired and a few non fired just laying or buried in the dirt. (I was super into stalker then so I needed to look around for ammo lol). Rusty as fuck tho.
>Self loading
Well, I hate to say you may have to halt those self loading plans for a bit and focus on the obtainable while getting ready for them. We get closer every day. But it's better to have a matchlock that works than a semi auto with no ammo. :(

>>64028695
Oh, look up the bellpeppers beef beta on the sea. You may find that interesting.

You mean ammo CASINGS? Live ammo doesn't just lay around

>>64028732
Lol, it was like 3 rounds of live ammo I found.
I'm dead serious. Rusty, but I'm sure at the minimum could be reloaded or made to fire.
Once again, that was 12 years ago. And maybe I just got lucky.
Who know, if there is a will, there sometimes can be a way.

>>64028543
at least I don't have to pay 200$ tax stamp and wait for approval for suppressor or sbr, it's honestly good enough. It's pricy enough to keep undesirables from getting guns

>>64028744
well, casings and bullets aren't a problem. I can buy them without a license. gunpowder isn't too - we have nailgun blanks. But primer powder? they deliberately put little of it into the nailgun blanks and its hard as fuck to extract. primers are the main issue.

>>64028821
I don't either, lol. Not everyone is american.
>>64028827
Hmm... I'll look into some that I use and possibly post later. But crushed up match stick then using alcohol (Not drinking kind) has worked for me in the past. Do very little at a time. Primer shapes can be made from metal cans with some effort.
