Show us your vintage and antique beauties.
This is my pre WWI Dreyse M1907. This version is not particularly rare, but rarer than the later post WWI and WWII versions. This one actually belonged to my great-great-grandfather who served in the German Army during WWI as an officer. Still functional and reliable.
What have you guys got? (doesn't have to be a firearm necessarily, antique swords are just as welcome)
That's a cool relic anon. A damn good story behind it too.

A lot of my old items don't have great stories attached. Here's my FN 1900, made sometime around 1905.
Here's another old one, a Steyr-Pieper M1907, made in 1911.

>Colt 1917

>Tisas 1911
cheapo 1911
>Smith and Wesson model 15
Super fun to shoot and super accurate.
>Colt 1911
Very fun to shoot, i think it needs a stronger recoil spring though.
Always wanted a Mauser C96. Found one almost by miracle in nogunnistan.
I post this picture a lot, but here it is again.
The Colt is from 1909, and the Mauser a couple years younger. I shoot them both on the regular.
A snowflake Hi-Standard Model H-B circa 1940
Its rare because it has a hammer, but no safety lever, and the magazine release on the bottom of the grip
MAS Mle 1873 revolver (genuine antique) rechambered for .22lr sometime in the 1950s.
Recoil is non-existent, unfortunately so it accuracy

This is its Spanish cousin, the Astra 900
In Chna there was a huge demand for brooms and Astra figured out the only way to crack the market was to make a lookalike.

Notice the internals are way different
I just recently picked up this Colt M1901 revolver. It's chambered in .38 Long Colt. Below the Colt is my S&W M1917.
Here's my contribution, a 1914 Steyr M.95 carbine "mit stutzenring", all matching serial numbers, and chambered for it's original 8X50mm cartridge. Most of these were rechambered for 8X56mm, making this a little rare, although the downside is it's impossible to find ammo without loading it yourself.

... and it's Alpine War foe, a Carcano Moschetto M91 per Truppe Speciali, although unfortunately the barrel of mine was taken from a later M91/28.

Cool!
My mother has one marked KPPA (someone something royal police headquarters, we don't know which district A is, though we think it was Alsace Lorraine)
It's a nice smooth shooting little pistol but the trigger fucking sucks and the magazines aren't really reliable, but being almost 100 I can honestly understand why they wouldn't be.
I myself have a Webley Mk VI, 1915 dated and it WAS all matching but the latch spring died and I wound up with a later model spring.
One day I'll take nice individual pics, but I'm lazy and tired now.

I had a huge Boner for Astras interiors with the "jeweled" finish made on the side plates. Is a Full Auto version too much to ask Jesus?

Wasn't a lookalike more than a knockoff, they were pretty good shooters and cut a lot of the german autism out.
