If he makes sure the room isn't humid, puts a light coat of oil on the metal and tosses a desicant packet in there. He should be fine for 5-6 months.

Apply a liberal coat of Renaissance wax to the frame, and barrel.

Use a spary of barricade on internals, and bore.

Then if extra paranoid or if you live in a costal or muggy area, vacuum bag it with a fee desicant packs.

Only if you don't have access to the tools to reload your own rounds for some reason.

Paper cartridges were used to hold sufficient powder for a shot together with the ball, making reload simpler than using a seperate powder flask and bullet box. The sparks from the flintlock are not enough to ignite an unopened cartridge.

The user would bite the cartridge open and pour most of the powder down the barrel, keeping back a pinch for the pan.
They would then drop the ball (and the paper, which acted as wadding) down the barrel before ramming the load home.
Tbey would then put the pinch of powder in the pan, before closing the pan cover and cocking the weapon. It would then be ready to fire.
Due to the closer fit needed by rifles for the ball and patch/wadding to actually engage the rifling, they were slower to reload and took more effort to ram home the load.
tl:dr You can't do it without the flashpan, percussion cap or slowmatch.

Paper shotgun shells where a thing and still are a thing in third world countries.

Neither considering a second Korean War will never happen as long as Kim has WMDs.

>put grip+trigger to the right of the barrel+action for balance reasons
>lefty faggots cry about it

i think it would be a neat thing

Because you can present a lower profile in the prime position or foxhole. Plus easier to achieve natural point of aim

Prime = prone

Can't say I'm a great fan of the finish he gave the axe head, but I guess that's just a matter of taste. Especially combined with the somewhat soft shaping of it, the result just felt about as crisp as dough.

"Solid" chains tend to be somewhat stylish in appearance, but even when keeping other art pieces in mind, I just can't shake the feeling that this is one chain that won't be stronger than it's weakest weld. Still, I can live with what's most likely far worse when it comes to art pieces, so I probably shouldn't complain too much there. Might just be that the overall look doesn't entice me enough to get over it.

And remember kids, the smoke you get when welding galvanised metal ain't your friend.

NEVA BIN DUN BEFOAH

it works better for some rifles

others it works like shit

i'd guess it has to do with the length of pull

The PPU brass is reloadable. If you reload it makes more sense to use PPU

>>34829968
ppu brass sucks

>>34829968
>>34829975
I do reload but currently don't have dies for .303.

What makes the brass shit?

If it were as shitty as you say it is, it wouldn't be as widely adopted.

bumping this HIGH quality thread

I'm going to bump.

This is what I have in silver and black poly.
Got a bad carry gun. Small sleek. I carry .40 so it's not too heavy.

Because they're actually pretty shoddy.
The QC is monumentally worse on products they sell domestically, if you can believe that.

They also have a legally enforced market monopoly in Brazil, which is highly unethical if you ask me.

Two guns coming out of the same factory on the same day can have wildly different specs, that's how shit Taurus is

Each piece also sticks out a hit further than normal

And a size comparison with it and a modern spartan SAK.

It's a famas tool used for field striping. I'd date it around 1889.

>held together with plastic and wood screws

Hold one first. I love the idea and the capacity. But holding a triangle in my hand wasn't comfortable. It was better than a hipoint but not by much.

It's a cute idea but rimfire and doubletack mags will never mix well. It's never going to work well unless they go single stack (defeating the purpose) or take the rim off the cartridge (also not happening)

Thisbis pretty much the normal number, this includes contractors who cook and clean when you don't want to trust the locals with it
