Alright /k/ I know nothing about firearms but I seemed to have stumbled on a gun piece of some sorts. I'd appreciate if anybody could share some knowledge
Can you take a picture from the other side?
Where did you find it? and you need to take a pic of the whole thing
Some sort of blackpowder flintlock, maybe percussion cap, i can't tell with this picture.
Put bullets in it and fire them until you find one that works.

I found it in an abandoned house that's for sale by the bank. I spotted it by some bushes.
Looks like a Springfield Model 1888 single-shot breechloading rifle, based on the shape of the action and remains of the rear sight.
I don't know what the fuck it is, but it's definitely old. :^)

>>31855189
So, you stole it
>>31855252
I suppose I did
>>31855248
This seems to be the closest resembling what I found. Thanks a whole lot man
>>31855260
Then you're just a filthy fucking criminal.
I found a little rail thing that goes on top of the ar15 carry handle. It's worn out and scratched up like a motherfucker, but maybe I'll actually use it some day.
>>31855286
We're all filthy fucking criminals here. This is a den of iniquity.
>>31855286
I'm assuming the previous owners, didn't know what it was and left it out. The home was foreclosed and turned over to the bank. The bank just didn't look hard enough. I mean you're still right though
>>31855337
I'm not
>>31855286
dude it's a rusty shit with zero value. How cares if he """""stole""""" it
>>31856259
because its not his and it was on private property. He had no right to it.
>>31855158
Yeah definitely a muzzleloader but I think it looks more like a caplock.
>>31856304
cant steal abandoned property...
>>31856338
Bank owns it. It's not abandoned
>>31856346
fuck banks
>>31855286
Agreed, he's really kicking that poor bank while its down
All it ever wanted was a rusty musket to call its own
>>31856377
Banks do way more good than they do bad you dumb nigger
>>31856388
If you called the bank right now and told them that a rusted out pipe was removed from the yard, told them who did it and where they could be found, do you think they'd give a fuck?
The value of that item at auction probably wouldn't be worth the time it'd take them to send out a rep to pick it up. Not only that, but without many more items to put together into a lot, they'd probably never do anything with it at all except
a) leave it in the yard
b) toss it out
>>31856377
fuck Indians too
>>31855350
That's exactly what a filthy criminal would say.
>>31856380
>>31856388
That's not the point.
>>31856525
No, that's exactly the point.
He picked up someone else's unwanted trash, it was probably rusted to shit in the first place (hence it being tossed in a bush). You are literally the only person that cares.
