I can't afford a real one so....

Post by BuckeyeSgt »

I sold a .300 Win Mag I was never going to have a real use for. I saw a few other guns I wanted but I went with this. Is it practical..no. But it was just way too cool. I have looked at them before but couldn't justify spending that much on a .22 but the money I had from the sale just seemed to look like monopoly money so I bit the bullet.

“Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” George Orwell, English novelist, essayist, and critic, 1903-1950

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

From what I have read about these they are solid as a rock and feel like the real STG. You are gonna have so much fun with that. They also make some other cool guns too. Aren't these the guys who make the reproduction Winchester 97 trench gun?

I'm not sure about the trench gun. I have been waiting for the anticipated release of the MP40 in .22 as well.
Ya this thing is solid. Heavy as well. I'm pretty sure it's about as close as it gets to a real one.

The idea of making all the cool guns in 22 makes a lot of sense. Like the GSG 1911 in 22. They are nice looking 22's that feel just like the 45Acp, until you pull the trigger.

Ya they have some cool stuff. Cheap to shoot too. We need to hit the range or have a road trip out to Weldonhunters.

Nice! These look so neat. Looks like a fun rifle.
Let me make a short, open, blanket comment. There are no good guns. There are no bad guns. Any gun in the hands of a bad man is a bad thing. Any gun in the hands of a descent person is no threat to anyone--- except bad people. -- Charleton Heston

Guns are not good, they are not evil. Save those descriptions for the people holding the firearm. -- Unknown

1937 Izhevsk

1939 Tula (laminate stock)
And many other firearms :D

Check out the small print on the wood case. The cases are hand built by Amish craftsmen. We had two at the shop and they are cool, even if they do weigh 20 lbs. We sold them both in a week.

Those are very cool and I've been tempted to snag one but the price has kept me away. One of these days I'll pick one up.

I can only imagine how much fun we would all have if we showed up to shoot at Weldonhunters place.
