I'm sorry to bother you /k/
My mother just called me to tell me that my godparent died a few days ago. =(
He was hunter and collector of weapons and had a nice collection of guns at home. I went shooting with him a few times. As we live in germany we need a license to own guns. Luckily his wife and close friends have licenses, so the government won't come for the guns. Unfortunately i don't have a license yet, so no (legal) guns for me. I just wanted to share some pictures with you. Pic related, its my godparent. (Ignore the finger on the trigger , plz)

Bumping for you
Regarding trigger discipline, it's actually a relatively new thing, and i'm not sure how closely Europe follows it as a rule

Op here, im at work right now. Will post more when im home.
>>32253291
how do you get to hold a full Auto gun in Germany?
Sammler wbk?
mein Beileid anon
rip in peace
>>32253273
More of generational thing. Older people who went through military training before it was a taught tend not to do it. All civi shooters I've met do it.
>>32253260
When my grandfather died the state didnt care about the guns.
Buts its rural Bavaria and the state has long given up to pretend to give a fuck about most things.
>>32253275
Caliber?
>>32253379
Also its fine as long as you check the rifle and make sure its safe. Never got why people on the internet pretend to care about some random lone fuck playing with his empty gun and a camera.
>>32253317
Op here,
He had a "Sammler-Wbk" (collectors license). However the Stgw 44 was changed to semi-auto. It wad captured by the soviets and later distributed to the eastgerman Kasernierte Volkspolizei.
>>32253307
Thx, this means alot to me. He was indeed one of the older generation. As we call it "vom alten Schlag". There are no words to describe the loss of him for me and the feels that im currently feeling.
>>32253389
As in all Stgw 44 the caliber is 7,92x33mm. One cartridge was like 2,80€ since we hadn't prvi partizan ammo to shoot.
>>32253405
THIS
Why do all these youtube video fags show us the gun is clear before doing shit with it. I don't care if the gun is loaded, its not going to shoot throught the camera, through the undersea cable to another continent, out my screen and into my face.
I've seen comments where people have complaint that the guy didn't safety check before he did shit, he said he did it before he switched on the camera and the comment faggot told him he should still do it on camera so viewers know the gun is safe.
Also sorry for your loss OP, I'm happy your godfathers family are not antiguns that hand guns in to the police.
>>32253414
how did he feel about rapefugees and your country turning arabic?
>>32253440
OP here, we did not talk about politics much, since it's indeed not a pleasure to talk about. When i was with him we were talking about guns and shooting, u know, good times. Not how about our politicians backstab their own people.
On a sidenote: i believe he had a stash of unregistered guns somewhere hidden.
>>32253458
P.s. in case for "schlechtere Zeiten" as he would call it.
>>32253462
yes, "bad times" is not a phrase that is foreign to english speakers, hans.
>>32253458
>>32253462
better find that stash anon before the "authorities" trash them. check in his barn or something if he has one
>>32253260
Enjoy having those confiscated when the Arabic Union passes its new gun control measures.
That's what he gets for complying with a registry though.
>>32253317
>>32253414
sweet. would like to get the Hands on one of them too. too bad that i live on the other end of Germany.
>>32253260
OP here, going to dump the rest of the pics
>>32253492
there is still something called "Bestandsschutz" (dunno how to translate that). Please don't derail this thread, Mr. Asperber. Thanks.
>>32253567
Is that a Mauser HsC in the middle?
>>32253567

GLORIOUS GERMAN ENGINEERING
>>32253577
It's a Walther PPK made for the SS. He has several of those with the matching holsters. You can see three more PPKs on the lower display, with three more Lugers under that
>>32253592
Wow. I'm blind.
Any uniforms or camo?
>>32253592
sry for the rotation
pic related is his workbench
>>32253607
for Germans ist a quite cool collection. it would be a shame if ist get splitten up or you have to give them away. you should get a sammlerwbk too and get them all
>>32253616
i'm trying. Im already on my way for the hunting license.
>>32253260
Sorry for your loss. I hope that the guns are split between you and his loved ones. If there is 'just in case' stash then I suspect that he'll have made sure that one of his friends gets then to where he wants them to be. Good luck
>>32253633
holy shit he has a quality fucking collection. hilarious how he only seems to like german guns, i suppose that makes sense.
will you inherit anything or at least get a chance to buy?
>>32253633
the last one.
thanks for condolences guys
RIP German /k/ommando, may the /k/ube grant him good groups and target rich environments.
>>32253405
POW
b-but I thought it was unloaded
t. every NDfag
>>32253650
im ashamed of thinking what of his i could inherit as the news of his death is just a few hours old.
...all i hope is that the guns will go to people who value them. If I can get a gun or two the better it is.
>>32253663
Option 1:
Click
Option 2:
POW
Glad that Im not a retard and dont care when other people kill themselves or damage their property in internet videos
t. me
>>32253650
normally collectors in germany need a "theme" of what they collect. Just "collecting weapons" is not the way you get a collectors license. His theme was "Weapons of the german army 1871-1945". He purchased the other weapons over the hunting-license.
>>32253307
lol what a stupid fucking post
if there's even a 1% chance that you can ND and a 0.1% chance that it hits another person is it really that much trouble to make it less likely by simply moving your finger half an inch?
they also used to not wear safety glasses, then people started actually caring about safety and what do ya know, accidents stopped happening so often
>>32253707
You sound like you'd be fun at a party
>>32253707
You'd make a great range officer, you already have the annoying holier-than-thou cunt attitude down
Mein Beileid, er ist jetzt beim /k/ubus.
A shame Armatix cucks ruined the Erben-WBK

Your godfather certainly knew his shit. Sorry for your loss, OP. Was probably a great guy.
>>32253260
Was your grandfather also your godfather or are anons in this thread mixing that up?
anyways, sorry for your loss. judging from those pics, your godfather seems to have been a happy man who had a long and good life. thank god for that and be happy for your godfather.
>>32253389
>>32253428
With the whitle letters, it looks more like the new .22-reproductions from GSG.
>>32253260
And I thought in Germany it's possible for heirs to own weapons
Nice pics OP
Sorry for your loss
Did your grandpa serve in the Wehrmacht or SS?
>>32253462
Haha, wir haben alle irgendwo ein Versteck. Mein Beleid.
>>32253633
>still some straw blue on the c96's trigger
That is hot. Please accept my condolences on your godparent's passing, anon.

My condolences to you, anon. It looks like he had a wonderful collection.
