Mauser G41.

Very strange rifle that uses the Bang system originally designed by Søren H. Bang. Rather than having any holes in the barrel to allow gas out to reset the bolt the bang system uses pressure in a cone by the end of the barrel to force a rod back that sits over the barrel that resets the bolt. Apparently  this system wasn’t very successful, and was easily defeated by light amounts of dirt.

 I went to a gun show and a ton of gun shops over the weekend with one of my mates and he picked up these guns(I didn’t take these pictures and these are not my guns but I have permission to use the pictures) The revolver is an Enfield No.2 Mk I in .38S&W, and the rifle is an Ishapore Enfield 2A in 7.62NATO. 

I picked up a Ruger 10/22 at the show, which I will be posting pictures of shortly(even though everyone seems to have one)

Italian Partisan Air Rifle,

Apparently this strange air rifle was a weapon concocted by an Italian bicycle maker during World War II. In WWII Italy there were many paramilitary groups disgruntled with the German occupation of Italy and the Italian Fascist Party. The rifle was filled with air from a bicylce pump and several 11mm round bullets were inserted into a spring fed tube magazine on the left hand side. To load the user worked a bolt which fed a bullet from the magazine into the chamber.  Pulling the trigger forced a strong gust of air into the chamber propelling the bullet. 

While primitive compared to modern firearm technology, this unique air rifle would certainly have been deadly. It had a range of up to 100 yards and actually packed enough force to kill a person.  It would have been especially useful because it was silent and lacked muzzle flash or smoke when discharged. Currently this odd air rifle is in the possession of the Beeman Precision Air Rifle Company.

Guess who just started his WWII collection off the right way?

And to all those thinking “Why do you need this?”

I’m a huge WWII/history buff and I always dreamed of collecting WWII memorabilia   Also I’ve been invited to go hunting a few times but never had a rifle…but now I do.

hah, anyone who would question your need to own this, deserves to have their first amendment rights revoked.

Rare Model 38 Carcano Carbine with side mounted grenade launcher.

Something I have never seen before, a Carcano carbine with a weird grenade launcher.  Most rifle grenades during WWII were launched from an attachment at the end of the barrel.  The user attached the grenade, inserted a blank cartridge into the chamber, and the force of the cartridge should propel the grenade.  This interesting carbine has a completely separate grenade attachment, complete with a separate chamber for which to insert the cartridge. Interesting.

Sold at Auction: $3,000

I need one of these because reasons
