Hello /k/, europoor here living in a country with meh gun culture. I'm noguns yet, can't justify the price of getting required licenses as a student yet. Unless bb rifles count.

Anyways, recently I've found out a nearby shooting range allows lends their club weapons (most don't) and now I got my club time booked next week. For some reason though, they don't have their guns listed, only rounds.

Lets play detective /k/, what do you think will get to be my first real gun?

Calibers
MK 5.6
6.35
7.62
7.65
9mm short
9mm long
38. special
357. magnum
44. magnum
357. magnum LWC

>hint, they have pistols, revolvers and i think 2 rifles
>>
>>34375888
and which ones should I choose, I'll buy about 100 rounds to put down range for the first time
>>
>>34375888
>trips
probably .38 special and .22lr or even 9mm Luger

>9mm Long
what did he meme by this?
>>
>>34375938
I believe 9mm long = 9mm browning long (9x20)

I haven't decided on the gun yet
>>
You are either be shooting a smith and wesson 686, a pardini gt9, a walther gsp, a ruger mark3/buckmark or a tanfoglio.
European gun culture revolves around those.
>>
>>34375888
Just get a .22 rifle for cheap shooting and then get an extra firearm a few months later
>>
>>34376147
Eastern 'Europe' here, the ranges here hand out H&K, Sigs and the odd glawk and makaronis ofcourse. I've seen maybe 2 of the guns you listed and that's in a catalogue.
>>
>>34375888
Listen as a fellow European the only cheap rounds are .22lr 9mm some .223 and 7.62x39

Anything else is far too expensive to shoot on regular basis. Good luck at shooting ammo that costs 1 euro pet bullet
>>
>>34376161
Eastern europe is its own thing rhough to be fair. The wealthy and anti gun european countries have the ones i listed.
>>
>>34376169
>Be Europe
>Guns are either heavily controlled or non-existent in markets due to cost
Send cheap ar-15 pls
>>
>>34375888
>MK 5.6
No clue what that is.

>6.35
Gonna say Carcano

>7.62
Could be a lot of things, 7.62x39mm would be likely, especially in Eastern Europe, so in that case a Vz58, AK or Cz527.
Could also be .308 Winchester

>7.65
Could be .32ACP or 7.65mm Luger, in which case a Walther PPK, Sauer H38 and Colt 1903 would be reasonable guesses for the former, and a (possibly Swiss) Luger Parabellum, or a Browning Hi-Power (though it's rare in that caliber). Could also be Beretta pistols of either caliber.

>9mm short
AKA .380ACP, possibly Walther PPK or Colt 1908, though fairly likely a Beretta or Browning BDM too.

>9mm long
Might be 9mm Largo, in which case it's totally an Astra or Star. Could also be 9mm Steyr, 9mm Browning Long, or 9mm IMI, in which case it could be quite a number of things, though I'd say they're less likely.

>38. special
>357. magnum
Sky's the limit on these ones, if you're lucky it's a Colt Python, which I understand go for a lot lower prices in most of Europe.

>44. magnum
Any number of possibilities here too. Gonna say Ruger Blackhawk or Desert Eagle, just because.

>357. magnum LWC
Not sure what LWC means.

Ask to shoot as many as you can, by the way.

>>34376147
>>34376187
thank you for advice

>>34376188
i don't have enough $$ to justify a getting a license let alone my own gun.

reloading stuff is far beyond that for now
>>
>>34376166
is 12ga or other shotshells cheap in europe?
I get 25 round boxes of birbshot for like $5 and make wax slugs.
cheap for plinking in my backyard, but idk if they would allow that at a range.
>>
>>34376265
OP here, afaik not in a regular range, hunting clubs usualy have their own, but you have to be a hunter or a sports shooter to buy ammo for that.

I don't know any hunters or that'd be my first choice too
>>
>>34376188
You'd need a license or that here.
>>
>>34375938
9x21 largo... its common in countries where you can't have "military" calibers.
