@a number two numbers how suomi kp is copy of the ppd-40, because suomi kp production started in 1931 and ppd-40 1935. I hope that this is troll or if not you are stupid
I know a guy who may want it. He is supposed to be returning some time soon, I keep hearing. He is a carpenter, but only speaks Aramaic, so that may be a problem.
i live in Canada and we can shoot here :) it was under British rule for a large chunk of its history and was there to back the Brits up in not one but two world wars
my number 1 regret is the nerf recon it jams alot and has terrible range it is inctedibly hard to hit hour target because the wind blows the foam bullets away
Yep. And I was missed as I had died owing money to two weed dealers, and one girlfriend, who happened to be an IRS auditor. Which is why I ended up in the fight in the first place. The girlfriend married one of the dope dealers and now they hold weekly seances, trying to channel me back, so they can find out where I left the money. Good luck with that.
You should make a youtube video about where you hid the money. You'd get at least 2-3 views and make even more money that you can keep hidden from them. Just don't make the video too long and use a good microphone. Ain't nobody got time for that.
Send your Kel-Tec back and keep sending it back until it works or Kel-Tec goes out of business. A long time ago I bought an AMT DAO Back Up .380. It both failed to feed and failed to detonate primers, I sent it back to the factory. I got it back, it detonated primers but still would not feed any make of ammo reliably, so I sent it back again. When I got it back for the second time they had finally fixed it right. Since then it has been perfectly reliable and I still have it. Don't just unload your piece of junk on some poor unknowing guy at a gun show, make the manufacturer fix it right.
+Isaac Arnold Still a bad thing, since you can have another gun which is already reliable, without having to send it to the manufacturer again and again
amen. or, only sell it w/a full rundown of issues to the buyer..keep ppl safe and also, not ripped off..us gun lovin ppl have enough probs w/the whole anti-gun & anti-self defense movement & should stick together.
+Isaac Arnold It might be something as simple as opening the forward lips of the magazine just slightly and polishing them so the round will tip up and into the feed ramp (I would polish that too). Degrease the gun completely the use Frog Lube. Keep the slide open a few days to take some tension off the spring. Then try again with some .22 Blazer or CCI Stingers. (This is why I like revolvers).
My grandpa used to carry m31 when he was in the war. It saved his life many times. Its old reliable and heavy, so it doesent brake, in use. Ja vittu suomenkieli on kaunista.
I regret making my Mortar. Didn't know how to build a decent high explosive shell so ended up setting my house on fire and coming out with nothing but a tube. Still, its a good PVC pipe to hunt the local wildlife with.
I was born after the Nokia 3310 was released and wished I could experience a time where we had basic phones like that.

You have to download an app or look it up online these days.

Same here with the 7x57- There is a mom and pop shop 5 min from my house that carries the Prvi stuff but I think he only keeps it in stock for me. The only other place is at the local gun shop in WV when I go back to see my parents. Such an underrated cartridge
Weight was a part of keeping the recoil controllable in rock-o-la mode. If you want a lighter sub gun clone try an exhaust pipe STen or a Port Said in semi auto. But sell the unwanted and these tube guns in a transferable version are relatively cheap but remember, they were made from exhaust pipes but pay a few more $$$ and get an Armaloy or Robar finish thrown on and yes they may shine too much but they will be practically indestructible and fun to shoot.
The surplus SKS is pretty much dried up now, or almost. That's why it's much higher today. I was lucky enough to nab a Yugo SKS for 200 few years ago. Every once a while they'll bring in some surplus firearms some countries want to get rid of, that's when they're cheapest. Right now, Arisaka WWII rifles are pretty cheap. I don't really want one, because the ammo is hard to find and they're insanely expensive.
@@gringoamigo8146 I got a mosin for 89.99 in 2012 and I have an Egyptian Maadi and Polish AKM that i built from parts kits and cost me under $400 each. Just never got into SKS I guess lol. Those arisakas are good shooting guns but for $2 per round I would pass unless its just for a wall piece or to complete a WW2 collection.

@@atf2888 yes i am pissed cause a great gun gets made by some shit company and its reputation gets ruined ive shot one and got more than 1500 rounds thru it in one go with one malfunction in minus 30 degrees
+Porty1119 if you think that's weird you should look up the forgotten weapons channel in RUclips and you will be surprised on what ppl would come up with.
jlrockafella Much of that stuff actually worked, or actually represented an innovation that was later worked out into a functional weapon, but I certainly see your point as far as weird gun-shaped-objects go.
CCI STINGERS, or any high powered .22lr ammo is the only that should be used in those. Have one 28 years and just got it working reliably with the new high perf ammo sold today.
Suomi KP/-31 is the best SMG of WW2 in my opinion, the russians confirmed it DURING the Winter War(Finland-Soviet war), soviets got so scared that they signed a peace treaty and COPIED(converted to 7.62 x 25mm Tokarev, shortened de barrel etc etc) this Suomi to create the new PPSh-41.Even nazi Germany bought 2 or 3 thousand of these, which were very used by german soldiers over the WW2, thanks to 71 drum magazine and its 9 x 19mm caliber(so much better than MP-40).Rate of fire goes 750-900 rpm and 12" barrel as you already know.Truly a forgotten weapon.
Well I'd call the KP-31 many things but beautiful wouldn't be one of those things., in many ways the gun was like the Finnish Defense Force at the time, crude but it worked, that's probably why it jams with blanks too, it was designed to do one thing at time when Finland was short on pretty much anything but enemies so the design wasn't exactly fine tuned to work outside of the intended use.
PPSh41 being a copy of KP31 is mostly a myth KP31 however is mostly why the gun exists as it was developed because KP31 was in several ways much better weapon than the PPD-34 which was much more expensive to make and could not be fitted with a drum mag
I have NEVER regretted "buying a gun" - any gun!!! I have only regretted SELLING a gun - Several for that matter.. Sold several Colt & Winchester's, S&W's etc' in my personal collection. Sold only due to high & emergency medical hospital bills... Otherwise - have NEVER "regretted purchasing a gun". That's all I have to say about that... Enough said, Chris Caliber
@Christopher Marlowe believe it or not, most Chinese guns are considered quite good in the US and Canada. I’ve yet to seen an AK better than a Polytech Legend
I had two guns I deeply regret to have given away when my father was still with us. One was a over and under 16 gauge shotgun and the other a 22 gauge single barrel light game shotgun with which my father went hunting. We gave them away because the already harsh no-weapons laws here in Italy got even harsher and we couldn't afford to keep them anymore. Three years later my father passed away. Had those laws gotten unreasonably harsher now, I'd have sold a kidney rather than having a legacy of my father to disappear on me just because our bastards politicians woke up on the wrong side of the bed. AGAIN.
Research the hell out of any new products being tossed out for consumers to gobble up. For example, I really wanted the UTAS-15 until a buddy of mine bought one and I saw the parts diagram. Over complex piece of garbage and it didnt even work right from new in the box. If you like to shoot often it doesn't make much sense to buy weapons in odd ball cals either. I prefer 9mm, 7.62x39, .223/5.56, and 308/7.62x51mm. It's never overly difficult to find these cals and the prices are very reasonable.
DarkSith1980 Sooo.... you don't own a Ruger 10/22, 22/45 or M&P 15/22? I have 10 firearms in the 22 cal category. That said, at my age... 77, the 22LR along with the 9mm, 223/556 and 7,62X39 are my personal favorites. Easy to find, as you say, relatively inexpensive (the 22LR has come way down) and fun at the range. I also reload... but that's another story.
+mrbill2600 Im with you, I built my collection around ammo that is and will be easy to find if something bad took place. I been on the fence about getting a AR because that kinda screws everything up. 12G, 7.62x39, .38/.357 are easy to find, and just about any farmer has 12G someplace. Having served, the love for the AR rifle is a "love hate" thing, it's an amazing weapon.... when it's clean. On the flip side my SKS or AK 47 could be tossed in a river for a week and come out shooting. The SKS has to be the most dependable or "trusted" weapon I have, I can load it with a stripped clip or a single shot at a time, if the main spring fails, I can use it like a bot action. It shoots rather well, it's a little on the heavy side even with a poly folder, but it really is the weapon I would grab if I had to get away for a long time. That and my #66 SS S&W, 38s or 357.
real Suomi smg's were known for their reliability and ACCURACY, being used by troops to hunt squirrels and what not to get little more meat, so the shitty trigger is also doing of who ever gobbled this together in USA, only real down sides being weight and being costly and time consuming to manufacture. Also, the stick mags until they were modified for "swedish k" mags, werent the best. Especially the 50 round "coffin" i hear was especially bad.-
An M14 is roughly ten or so pounds depending on the make, and some guns are heavier but also are entertaining to shoot. If you have a problem holding ten to twenty pounds with two hands, then you shouldn't own any guns to begin with.
flipmane Yes because not only is that pointless to own at this point, but it's dangerous. I've known former military personnel whom have grown up and old and can't even hold ten pound rifles anymore without shaking or dropping them. What if you dropped it while it was loaded and it went off? What if you accidentally pulled the trigger while it was in your hands and you got "tired"? If you can't hold it for more than a minute, you shouldn't have it or use it.
flipmane It's true, even my family members whom used to be in various branches of the military all agree that if you can't handle a firearm, you shouldn't have them.
i regret buying a Cetme back in 2006. Pot metal reciever, heavy trigger, and it felt like all the moving parts had a fine layer of grit not matter how much i cleaned and lubed.
What CETME version? The old ones, CETME C, is one of the best assault rifles in its time. I guess it's a newer version, the CETME L model. That was just crap and had to be replaced by the G36 in Spanish army.
I believe he is talking about the Century Arms Cetme C. When they first started making these from import kits they were not good quality. Headspacing was non-existant and the flats were not always bent correctly causing major inaccuracy. I think they are better now.
That is trash american semiauto variant of the real KP-31. The KP-31 was super reliable and had a rate of fire of 900 rpm. It was also known for its accuracy and weight (4.6 kg without mag). You can find them with $20 000 price tag.
As a gunsmith I have found that a lot of hang ups and no feeds for the small 22s can be completely fixed simply by diamond grit polishing the ramp. Most of the time that is where the problem is. The 30 round pistol that you have can be fixed by doing the same thing but you also need to polish the slide. Even without oil the finish comes out so slick that hang ups are usually gone. You will find that many guns no matter where they are made unless you are talking about some custom made shotguns like Lefevbre, S&S, Citori,etc. all have some rough working surfaces that are prone to a lot of friction and simply by polishing the working surfaces that actually come in contact with the rounds will fix many, many problems. All you need is a rotary tool and you can make a bad gun into a fantastic shooter.
When you buy a Soviet/Russian gun 1.it's cheap 2.ammo for it is cheap 3.you can buy it anywhere 4.it's the synonym for reliability 5.it's proven that the AK from '70s is better than most of todays modern weapons I hope i was out of some help :-)
Buy from anywhere... Ive not yet seen a "real" ak 47. I mean a real semi auto that doesnt look like a cheaper rattly copy. They are also floating right over 650$ so an ar15 is cheaper and easier to work on. Any ak from the 70s will have had almost 40 years of abuse heaped on it. If they where being made new in the usa for around 500 id buy one but i cant find them in ohio.
Still...the availability of the Ammo and its expense takes away from its usefulness and versatility in comparison to a 12 Gauge chambered for 3 1/2 Inch. I got rid of mine for that very same reason. 12 Gauge still rules, and very few shooters enjoy the recoil.
Not really. 10 gauge shells hold more shot but are seldom if ever loaded to a higher velocity than a simple 12 gauge "field load". Same for "magnum" loads in a 12 gauge. More shot and lower velocity. I load all my own ammo and I can't even find a recipe for a 10 gauge load, not that I've ever really tried all that hard, that has anywhere near the velocity of my favorite, 1 oz., 12 gauge, steel shot duck load. Those suckers have such a "crack" to them that I once had a game warden try to find the "secret rifle" I was using to shoot ducks on the water! 10 gauge shotguns and 12 gauge magnum loads are for suckers.
My dessert eagle I chose the .50 Action Express variation because well I'm already buying a huge tiger striped pistol I might as well also make it fire Bullets so big they could double as a door stop, 6 stitches later I really feel that burning those $3000 I spend on it would have been a better use for my money. I know I could buy a different barrel so I could use some less ridiculous Rounds on it but......well now it's about principal.
Yeah, the .357 is a lot cheaper to feed, and a lot more practical in the long range. But all of us have been at least tempted by .50 shooting handguns at least once in our lives, and at least you went for it. Sure it was no small pocket change down the shitter, but life experience is invaluable.
Nick Bingham I ended up with 6 stitches across my forehead and a dislocated thumb....I could have done without that experience(Gun looks darn Sexy however, Like DARN Sexy)
Same bought a 320 and regret it.sights are way off shoots very low.even came with aftermarket sights..but to fix my issue i nees to change the front sight to a small one whoch are $90. Kinda regret the purchase eh what's $ 700 lol 😒
@@RandomNoisyBoy The gun was literally recalled. It was objectively problematic. You still blame him for that? Ridiculous. Keltec is notorious for their low quality control. Anyone who has visited their plants in Florida, like myself, can tell you about all the FOD all over their factory. All of their first runs are partial lemons. Every gun my dad has owned from them went immediately back to the shop within 3 magazines. Despite this, if you get a later production run gun, like I did with the KSG, you'll enjoy their guns. I would warn you about low temperatures, since the keltec employee I know did complain about shooting them in the winter. Might have been gun dependent.
thewerepyreking lmao I blame him for that because he probably didn’t read the manual, I own one and did everything the instruction manual did and mine runs fine? Look at the other comments on here, they read and it payed off, what’s so hard to understand?
The worst gun that I've owned was a 475 Wildey magnum pistol. No matter what you did to the loads or the gun, it rarely made it through a 7 round clip. I found myself tearing the gun down at the shooting range every time and replacing parts every couple of outings such as the 8 inch vent rib which breaks in half after the first shot when the factory installs a scope base on it. The longer barrel solves the scope problem but I could never get the scope inline with the bore so optics proved unusable. And best groups that I could get at 25 yards were 3-4 inches from a rest. The gun was built so sloppy that accuracy wasn't possible. And worst of all, the gun cost about $2000. Let's hope that Wildey stays out of business.
+Mistermax30 He was shooting blanks with multiple takes. Oh, I forgot one thing. Every time that I fired the gun the hot shell cases would eject and hit me in the face. I used to leave the range with black half moon soot marks all over my face and forehead. Without shooting glasses you can loose an eye with that gun. One time a hot case lodged itself between my face and the arm on my glasses and gave me a 1st degree burn. At one point I did get the gun to function ok. But that required using a fast burning pistol powder for a 38 special and then loading it really light so that the 475 mag was only marginally more powerful than a 45 acp. At that point it was similar to the blanks fired in Death Wish 3. The ejected shell cases didn't have the same velocity so they usually missed my face and flew by the right side of my head. I will say one good thing. The gas adjustment works great. Sadly the rest of the gun doesn't and the company blames all the problems on the customer and his or her gas adjustment setting. If they redesigned the gun and kept the gas system, then it would be an awesome pistol. I did manage to get 2000 fps from a 230 grain FMJ bullet from their 10 inch barrel without over pressurizing the round. That cartridge bulled through two level 3 bullet proof vests from 20 years ago. Today's vests would hold out better but there's not a vest out there that could stop that round unless you had a trauma plate. And even then the impact would likely be fatal or very close.
So this is my experience with TNW’s version of the M-31. My reasons for purchasing were solely on the fact that it’s the closest thing I could get to the real one without breaking the bank. I love collecting militaria and firearms with historical significance. The price factor at the time also grabbed me as well. I think I only paid about 499$ complete with one stick and one drum. I read a few reviews ,so I knew what I was in for , expecting the guns characteristics and heavy awkward weight distribution, that issue did not concern me. mags we’re cheap and readily available.The overall fit and finish was pretty good, the Parkarizing was decent and pretty much what I expected for a surplus parts gun with a new redesign blowback bolt system. The trigger pull was a bit excessive, somewhere around 12 pounds I recall. So right off the bat my first few trips to the range were frustrating and disappointing. I could barely get through 10 or 15 rounds without having some sort of problem. I tried every different brand and quality level ammo I could buy. Over the course of a month and several trips to the range...I spent a lotta hours cleaning and adjusting, but no luck, nothing but misfeeds, light primer strikes, stove pipes and failures to extract. By then the extractor was fairly beat up. So I gave up on being stubborn and finally called TNW, their customer service was fast and easy, they paid for everything and gave me a brand new fully complete bolt carrier! They claimed that it should fix the problem, they said they’ve had some issues in their early run productions. But sadly after all that, even with the new boIt, I found myself still dealing with the same bullshit.🤯 I did some more testing, cleaning etc. Made sure it was not a magazine issue, I purchased many more by this time. The new bolt seemed to maybe help a little bit but overall this gun was just a headache and not reliable enough to be range worthy. Discouraged and distracted by new projects that actually functioned the way they should. I realized a couple years have passed and that I need to do something about this problem child. Not wanting to deal with selling or returning it... it’s just too cool of a piece to let go or waste on being a wall hanger. I decided spend some more money and go with a Gunsmith. Almost every Smith I talked to in CT Connecticut wanted nothing to do with it. Either not familiar enough with it or apprehensive to the fact that it is a redesign. But I knew Mitch the owner of Gunsmithing Limited in Southport CT was the best of the best and always loves a challenge. As always he delivered went above and beyond and spent alot of time to make it run flawless! I supplied the ammo, parts and labor came to $260. Port and polished everything(even the mags), fabed custom springs and firing pin, and did a full trigger job. He got the pull down to 5 pounds. I’m super impressed this gun now runs like a flawless champ! I bring it to the range all the time! It’s always a great head turner! And I’m really glad I didn’t give up!🤘
Hmm I hate to dump any more money on my M31. I was pissed at TMW because I called them for help because but I was one week out of my 1 year warranty and they wouldn’t do anything. Mine will run 10 or so rounds then start smashing the rounds
You call 500 bucks cheap??? I can't remember the last time I had 500 dollars just sitting around in my bank account. Hell I bought an old Turkish Mauser for 225 bucks and had to put it on layaway.
Try Hornady XTF 45 grain 22 WMR in your PMR-30. PMR-30's hate ammo below 40 grains, but the Hornady 45 Grain has run 900 rounds through mine without a hick up. If you use 33 grain and below, especially JHP's expect frequent problems. Just my experience. After you try the Hornady rounds, your buyers remorse may pass :)
Thanks for the info. I've had problems with my PMR-30 also. It's a shit load of fun to shoot tho. So the jamming is annoying but I don't regret buying it.
My pmr 30 had the same problems, but I found that the bolt had a small piece of metal that stopped rounds from ejecting, I cut it off and now it works perfectly.
I've been a gun collector for about 50 years now. I served as a fighter pilot in the USAF, as a sheriff's deputy and federal swat commander (narcotics entry team) and retired as an airline captain licensed to carry on the flight deck. I'm a Texas native and grew up on the family's 240,000 acre cattle ranch in west Texas. I'm a master gunsmith/armorer and firearms instructor and range master. To say that guns have been a large part of my life and the lives of my children and extended family would be an understatement. My gun room holds over 400 guns, from some of the earliest black powder match lock, wheel lock, and percussion cap guns to the most modern hunting, defensive, and military hardware available today. I don't regret historic purchases, as we humans learned at least as much from our blunders as from our successes. I do see why you regret some of yours, as I have bought many of the same weapons and been terribly disappointed. Even though I knew the guns in question had severe drawbacks, I still expected a base level of functionality that just wasn't there. The only point you made that I had difficulty with was the 10 ga goose gun. My father gave me the same gun for hunting larger game birds with bird shot, and hogs as well as deer using 10 ga slugs. The recoil really isn't too bad, I generally added a slip on rubber buffer to the shoulder stock as a flannel shirt over a t shirt is as winterized as we get. As for availability, I've been hunting with a 10 ga for about 60 years, and have never found ammo to be scarce. You can always reload yourself if need be. Learning to reload your own ammo is a relaxing and rewarding experience, and may indeed become necessary over the next few years, the way things are going. I would suggest that everyone obtain a few firearms and keep them together, along with the Equipment, knowledge, and ingredients needed for making gunpowder. There is no way to know if society will indeed collapse, but the old saying about rather "have it and not need it than need it and not have it" comes to mind. But still a thoughtful and engaging article. Well done!
Get yourself a Chiappa, 1911-.22 and you will really experience some buyer's remorse. Worst production pistol on the planet. I did and I am remorseful.
***** I had careful hopes if they had some decent rifles and shotguns... they all same crap too? That M1 remake seems sort of interesting, but there are still some real M1 carbines available.
Maverick 12ga pump. This is an inexpensive Mossberg 500 clone. The gun shoots great, but the chamber gets loaded up with residue. Shells 1-15 great. 16-20 hard to close. 21-25, struggling to close slide. Not good shooting trap. Same Federal ammo in my 870, no problem for 100+ rounds. Something weird about the chamber.
Maybe it's your gun, took my Maverick 88 out fired 200 rounds out of it, was still smooth as glass afterwards. Slugs, target load, 00buck, etc it ate everything I threw at it. But I don't go out shooting alot, so take it with a grain of salt. My own complaint is my bead sight got canted because the thread stuck out into the barrel and wasn't flush, and slugs threw it out of place, but a little bit of sanding fixed that.
you had me up until the bps 10 gauge. I have one and love it. It will hold its value better than other gauges as there are less of them in circulation. They pattern better than the 12g 3.5''. 10g ammo is a little tougher to find but can be found locally and online(i reload for it so no need) and is about the same price as 12g 3.5'' shells. Also with the same reloading components the 10g will run a lower pressure.
@@andrewsarah2 that 3 1/2 12 gauge Browning Pump has a 12 gauge chamber and a 10 gauge barrel. It is no wonder it patterns like crap. It is almost as heavy as the 10 gauge but it doesn't pack the punch of the 10 gauge.
As time has gone by, I see that 12ga 3 1/2” are not being carried in as many stores. I’ll take my 10ga magnum any day. It has a better pattern and a lighter recoil. And 15 years down the road from now, ammo will still be available.
NOpe, i'm a guy, what the colt pocket doesn't remind you of a 1911?, if you don't like those i don't know about you man, personally for a daily carry i'd opt for a tuned CZ97 if I was gonna carry a .45, or 9mm CZ75b
my number 1 regret was the cz75 Sp01 shadow mate Canadian edition its a silver finish and scatches easy has wear already just from the holster an i dont even put it in there that often paid 1800 lololol
Disagree with your description of the PMR-30. I've had mine for over three years. And yes, it did have feed issues. However by using the recommended CCI or Hornady ammunition that issue has gone away.
I once had a Walther PP (Not the PPK) in 22LR. The bastard would never go through a magazine without jamming. It looked well made but was totally unreliable. I don't know if the 9mm version is better (I would hope it is..) I'll never buy another Walther. As a matter of interest, I have yet to see a malfunction occur in the Artillery Luger (as long as factory ammo is used). - 100 years old and is totally dependable.
I had a chance at getting a double barrel 10 gauge years ago. The guy selling it was looking to change to a 12 gauge. He gave me a few shells to go try it out. Not noticing he gave me T shot I blasted one off. Recoil was so harsh it startled me. 2 more shots later I was done. My shoulder felt like my arm was out of its socket.
+Go Eat A Towel While I agree that you can get a better gun than a Mosin, for a full power bolt action rifle you can't beat it for initial expense, ammo cost, and parts availability. Throw in the fact that off your shoulder at 100 yards you can ring 12" steel all day despite cleaning it whenever you get around to it, and you don't have to worry about banging it around. I'm a WWII collector with most of the prolific bolt actions issued from all sides and my Mosin is what I take out of the safe more than any other. Besides, I kind like the fact that it sounds like a cannon, spits out a huge fireball, and kicks like a mule, the latter of which is easily mitigated with a recoil pad.
my biggest regret is buying a kriss vector. i have an ffl and i picked up the full auto version when they became available and man is that gun one of the biggest pieces of shit i have ever had the displeasure of interacting with. aside from general cycling issues. it is completely unwieldy and not ergonomic, on full auto it is difficult to control, and every couple hundred rounds either the firing pin or the bolt would break. it cycles too damn fast for it's own good and it puts too much stress on the bcg
Dont forget anything from Keltec (Edit) I spoke too soon hahahahaha you have a keltec hahahaha, my dad had a keltec that had a trigger pull which felt like 20 pounds
I kinda really want that keltec bullpup rifle. Cause it looks like it belongs in 2045. Maybe even the CA compliant variant for the ridiculous factor 😂 They're much too expensive though... ☹️
Regret buying my mosin Nagant hate how hard the bolt it and my son struggles with the trigger pull but then again I got it for 7$ so I should've thought about quality

+skylar gibson You just need some good after-market grips on that pumpkin mag. If your going target plinking shoot some low power rounds for hand longevity. Load the magnums when you want to blow some boars in half. I shoot a S&W.44 mag J-frame (notorious hand bruising for many people) stock wood grips with 1400 fps homemade hot-load 300 gr wad-cutters. I got skinny hands and it doesn't bother me to throw a box through it. If you keep your elbow bent more it will help your hand with the recoil also, just don't limp wrist it unless you don't like your front teeth.
+skylar gibson I have a friend who has one just for the purpose of saying he has one. I took the opportunity to shoot a cylinder of five rounds just to say I did it. Ammunition is crazy expensive and even with ear protection in my ears were still ringing! But, if he needed to, he could kill and elephant.

Send your Kel-Tec back and keep sending it back until it works or Kel-Tec goes out of business. A long time ago I bought an AMT DAO Back Up .380. It both failed to feed and failed to detonate primers, I sent it back to the factory. I got it back, it detonated primers but still would not feed any make of ammo reliably, so I sent it back again. When I got it back for the second time they had finally fixed it right. Since then it has been perfectly reliable and I still have it. Don't just unload your piece of junk on some poor unknowing guy at a gun show, make the manufacturer fix it right.
+Isaac Arnold That's the thing to do... kudos!

Weight was a part of keeping the recoil controllable in rock-o-la mode. If you want a lighter sub gun clone try an exhaust pipe STen or a Port Said in semi auto. But sell the unwanted and these tube guns in a transferable version are relatively cheap but remember, they were made from exhaust pipes but pay a few more $$$ and get an Armaloy or Robar finish thrown on and yes they may shine too much but they will be practically indestructible and fun to shoot.

The surplus SKS is pretty much dried up now, or almost. That's why it's much higher today. I was lucky enough to nab a Yugo SKS for 200 few years ago. Every once a while they'll bring in some surplus firearms some countries want to get rid of, that's when they're cheapest. Right now, Arisaka WWII rifles are pretty cheap.

We don't talk about that...
Suomi KP/-31 is the best SMG of WW2 in my opinion, the russians confirmed it DURING the Winter War(Finland-Soviet war), soviets got so scared that they signed a peace treaty and COPIED(converted to 7.62 x 25mm Tokarev, shortened de barrel etc etc) this Suomi to create the new PPSh-41.Even nazi Germany bought 2 or 3 thousand of these, which were very used by german soldiers over the WW2, thanks to 71 drum magazine and its 9 x 19mm caliber(so much better than MP-40).Rate of fire goes 750-900 rpm and 12" barrel as you already know.Truly a forgotten weapon.
I agree completely, it's a beautiful weapon with live ammo. But try firing blanks, 2-3 shots and it jams. so disappointing :c
Soviets didn't copy the KP-31 to make the PPSH-41. Completely different gun.
Well I'd call the KP-31 many things but beautiful wouldn't be one of those things., in many ways the gun was like the Finnish Defense Force at the time, crude but it worked, that's probably why it jams with blanks too, it was designed to do one thing at time when Finland was short on pretty much anything but enemies so the design wasn't exactly fine tuned to work outside of the intended use.
PPSh41 being a copy of KP31 is mostly a myth
KP31 however is mostly why the gun exists as it was developed because KP31 was in several ways much better weapon than the PPD-34 which was much more expensive to make and could not be fitted with a drum mag
No it wasn't. PPD-34 was based on german MP28, technically PPD34 and KP31 are totally different. Only drum magazine was copied from Kp31.
Thank you for showing metric values on the scale!

Research the hell out of any new products being tossed out for consumers to gobble up. For example, I really wanted the UTAS-15 until a buddy of mine bought one and I saw the parts diagram. Over complex piece of garbage and it didnt even work right from new in the box. If you like to shoot often it doesn't make much sense to buy weapons in odd ball cals either. I prefer 9mm, 7.62x39, .223/5.56, and 308/7.62x51mm. It's never overly difficult to find these cals and the prices are very reasonable.

+mrbill2600
Im with you, I built my collection around ammo that is and will be easy to find if something bad took place.
I been on the fence about getting a AR because that kinda screws everything up. 12G, 7.62x39, .38/.357 are easy to find, and just about any farmer has 12G someplace.
Having served, the love for the AR rifle is a "love hate" thing, it's an amazing weapon.... when it's clean. On the flip side my SKS or AK 47 could be tossed in a river for a week and come out shooting.
The SKS has to be the most dependable or "trusted" weapon I have, I can load it with a stripped clip or a single shot at a time, if the main spring fails, I can use it like a bot action.
It shoots rather well, it's a little on the heavy side even with a poly folder, but it really is the weapon I would grab if I had to get away for a long time.
That and my #66 SS S&W, 38s or 357.
real Suomi smg's were known for their reliability and ACCURACY, being used by troops to hunt squirrels and what not to get little more meat, so the shitty trigger is also doing of who ever gobbled this together in USA, only real down sides being weight and being costly and time consuming to manufacture. Also, the stick mags until they were modified for "swedish k" mags, werent the best. Especially the 50 round "coffin" i hear was especially bad.-
real Suomi is heavy but reliable. I have seen some semiversions in "traditional practical" carbine competitions. Never a malfunction.
An M14 is roughly ten or so pounds depending on the make, and some guns are heavier but also are entertaining to shoot. If you have a problem holding ten to twenty pounds with two hands, then you shouldn't own any guns to begin with.
agreed
agreed
flipmane Yes because not only is that pointless to own at this point, but it's dangerous. I've known former military personnel whom have grown up and old and can't even hold ten pound rifles anymore without shaking or dropping them. What if you dropped it while it was loaded and it went off? What if you accidentally pulled the trigger while it was in your hands and you got "tired"?
If you can't hold it for more than a minute, you shouldn't have it or use it.
flipmane If you can't hold it, you're danger to yourself and everyone around you.
flipmane It's true, even my family members whom used to be in various branches of the military all agree that if you can't handle a firearm, you shouldn't have them.

i regret buying a Cetme back in 2006. Pot metal reciever, heavy trigger, and it felt like all the moving parts had a fine layer of grit not matter how much i cleaned and lubed.
What CETME version? The old ones, CETME C, is one of the best assault rifles in its time. I guess it's a newer version, the CETME L model. That was just crap and had to be replaced by the G36 in Spanish army.
I believe he is talking about the Century Arms Cetme C. When they first started making these from import kits they were not good quality. Headspacing was non-existant and the flats were not always bent correctly causing major inaccuracy. I think they are better now.
Ok that M31 is super cool
That is trash american semiauto variant of the real KP-31. The KP-31 was super reliable and had a rate of fire of 900 rpm. It was also known for its accuracy and weight (4.6 kg without mag). You can find them with $20 000 price tag.
I agree😊
@@normachildress7464 wtf is your problem dipshit
As a gunsmith I have found that a lot of hang ups and no feeds for the small 22s can be completely fixed simply by diamond grit polishing the ramp. Most of the time that is where the problem is. The 30 round pistol that you have can be fixed by doing the same thing but you also need to polish the slide. Even without oil the finish comes out so slick that hang ups are usually gone. You will find that many guns no matter where they are made unless you are talking about some custom made shotguns like Lefevbre, S&S, Citori,etc. all have some rough working surfaces that are prone to a lot of friction and simply by polishing the working surfaces that actually come in contact with the rounds will fix many, many problems. All you need is a rotary tool and you can make a bad gun into a fantastic shooter.
When you buy a Soviet/Russian gun
1.it's cheap
2.ammo for it is cheap
3.you can buy it anywhere
4.it's the synonym for reliability
5.it's proven that the AK from '70s is better than most of todays modern weapons
I hope i was out of some help :-)
Buy from anywhere... Ive not yet seen a "real" ak 47. I mean a real semi auto that doesnt look like a cheaper rattly copy. They are also floating right over 650$ so an ar15 is cheaper and easier to work on. Any ak from the 70s will have had almost 40 years of abuse heaped on it. If they where being made new in the usa for around 500 id buy one but i cant find them in ohio.
Yeah but 10 gauge 3.5" hits harder than ANY 12
Still...the availability of the Ammo and its expense takes away from its usefulness and versatility in comparison to a 12 Gauge chambered for 3 1/2 Inch. I got rid of mine for that very same reason. 12 Gauge still rules, and very few shooters enjoy the recoil.
8aleph I honestly want to get a double barrel 10 gauge and saw the barrels down to 18.5 or cut it down to the for end
8aleph I almost bought a 10-gauge for $99 last year, but decided against it when I saw how much ammunition cost.
Not really. 10 gauge shells hold more shot but are seldom if ever loaded to a higher velocity than a simple 12 gauge "field load". Same for "magnum" loads in a 12 gauge. More shot and lower velocity.
I load all my own ammo and I can't even find a recipe for a 10 gauge load, not that I've ever really tried all that hard, that has anywhere near the velocity of my favorite, 1 oz., 12 gauge, steel shot duck load. Those suckers have such a "crack" to them that I once had a game warden try to find the "secret rifle" I was using to shoot ducks on the water! 10 gauge shotguns and 12 gauge magnum loads are for suckers.
My dessert eagle I chose the .50 Action Express variation because well I'm already buying a huge tiger striped pistol I might as well also make it fire Bullets so big they could double as a door stop, 6 stitches later I really feel that burning those $3000 I spend on it would have been a better use for my money. I know I could buy a different barrel so I could use some less ridiculous Rounds on it but......well now it's about principal.
Yeah, the .357 is a lot cheaper to feed, and a lot more practical in the long range. But all of us have been at least tempted by .50 shooting handguns at least once in our lives, and at least you went for it. Sure it was no small pocket change down the shitter, but life experience is invaluable.
Nick Bingham I ended up with 6 stitches across my forehead and a dislocated thumb....I could have done without that experience(Gun looks darn Sexy however, Like DARN Sexy)
Is that different than a main course eagle?
***** It was a .50 action express tiger striped Dessert eagle, No shit I fired it sideways how else would I fire it's Virgin first.
Anarchy Empire I think you would like a S&W 500 Magnum
Sig P320. Bought into the hype, but it's just another plastic striker-fired gun with a bad trigger. Sold it and bought a P226.
William Wadsworth the p226 is a nice gun. I actually have the 227 and i love it
William Wadsworth I have both. Got a 320 after my 226 for the wife. We love em both
Same bought a 320 and regret it.sights are way off shoots very low.even came with aftermarket sights..but to fix my issue i nees to change the front sight to a small one whoch are $90. Kinda regret the purchase eh what's $ 700 lol 😒
My keltec pmr 30 and the other 6 ive shot have absolutely no problem and works amazing
Machelle Bergeman he probably never used the right ammo or loaded the gun correctly,pays off the read the manual
Or tap the mag while loading
covefefe which is basically what I said yeah
@@RandomNoisyBoy
The gun was literally recalled. It was objectively problematic. You still blame him for that? Ridiculous.
Keltec is notorious for their low quality control. Anyone who has visited their plants in Florida, like myself, can tell you about all the FOD all over their factory. All of their first runs are partial lemons. Every gun my dad has owned from them went immediately back to the shop within 3 magazines.
Despite this, if you get a later production run gun, like I did with the KSG, you'll enjoy their guns. I would warn you about low temperatures, since the keltec employee I know did complain about shooting them in the winter. Might have been gun dependent.
thewerepyreking lmao I blame him for that because he probably didn’t read the manual, I own one and did everything the instruction manual did and mine runs fine? Look at the other comments on here, they read and it payed off, what’s so hard to understand?
I regret NOT BUYING some guns, I kick my self some times for letting go of guns I could of bought.
The worst gun that I've owned was a 475 Wildey magnum pistol. No matter what you did to the loads or the gun, it rarely made it through a 7 round clip. I found myself tearing the gun down at the shooting range every time and replacing parts every couple of outings such as the 8 inch vent rib which breaks in half after the first shot when the factory installs a scope base on it. The longer barrel solves the scope problem but I could never get the scope inline with the bore so optics proved unusable. And best groups that I could get at 25 yards were 3-4 inches from a rest. The gun was built so sloppy that accuracy wasn't possible. And worst of all, the gun cost about $2000. Let's hope that Wildey stays out of business.
Gg
+fywacia Charles Bronson didn't have too many issues with it.
+Mistermax30 He was shooting blanks with multiple takes. Oh, I forgot one thing. Every time that I fired the gun the hot shell cases would eject and hit me in the face. I used to leave the range with black half moon soot marks all over my face and forehead. Without shooting glasses you can loose an eye with that gun. One time a hot case lodged itself between my face and the arm on my glasses and gave me a 1st degree burn. At one point I did get the gun to function ok. But that required using a fast burning pistol powder for a 38 special and then loading it really light so that the 475 mag was only marginally more powerful than a 45 acp. At that point it was similar to the blanks fired in Death Wish 3. The ejected shell cases didn't have the same velocity so they usually missed my face and flew by the right side of my head. I will say one good thing. The gas adjustment works great. Sadly the rest of the gun doesn't and the company blames all the problems on the customer and his or her gas adjustment setting. If they redesigned the gun and kept the gas system, then it would be an awesome pistol. I did manage to get 2000 fps from a 230 grain FMJ bullet from their 10 inch barrel without over pressurizing the round. That cartridge bulled through two level 3 bullet proof vests from 20 years ago. Today's vests would hold out better but there's not a vest out there that could stop that round unless you had a trauma plate. And even then the impact would likely be fatal or very close.
+fywacia Why buy that gun, when you can get an abusive girlfriend for free?
+Mistermax30 The gun doesn't argue, come on now you that answer. Best regards.
So this is my experience with TNW’s version of the M-31. My reasons for purchasing were solely on the fact that it’s the closest thing I could get to the real one without breaking the bank. I love collecting militaria and firearms with historical significance. The price factor at the time also grabbed me as well. I think I only paid about 499$ complete with one stick and one drum. I read a few reviews ,so I knew what I was in for , expecting the guns characteristics and heavy awkward weight distribution, that issue did not concern me. mags we’re cheap and readily available.The overall fit and finish was pretty good, the Parkarizing was decent and pretty much what I expected for a surplus parts gun with a new redesign blowback bolt system. The trigger pull was a bit excessive, somewhere around 12 pounds I recall.
So right off the bat my first few trips to the range were frustrating and disappointing. I could barely get through 10 or 15 rounds without having some sort of problem. I tried every different brand and quality level ammo I could buy. Over the course of a month and several trips to the range...I spent a lotta hours cleaning and adjusting, but no luck, nothing but misfeeds, light primer strikes, stove pipes and failures to extract. By then the extractor was fairly beat up. So I gave up on being stubborn and finally called TNW, their customer service was fast and easy, they paid for everything and gave me a brand new fully complete bolt carrier! They claimed that it should fix the problem, they said they’ve had some issues in their early run productions.
But sadly after all that, even with the new boIt, I found myself still dealing with the same bullshit.🤯 I did some more testing, cleaning etc. Made sure it was not a magazine issue, I purchased many more by this time. The new bolt seemed to maybe help a little bit but overall this gun was just a headache and not reliable enough to be range worthy.
Discouraged and distracted by new projects that actually functioned the way they should. I realized a couple years have passed and that I need to do something about this problem child. Not wanting to deal with selling or returning it... it’s just too cool of a piece to let go or waste on being a wall hanger. I decided spend some more money and go with a Gunsmith. Almost every Smith I talked to in CT Connecticut wanted nothing to do with it. Either not familiar enough with it or apprehensive to the fact that it is a redesign. But I knew Mitch the owner of Gunsmithing Limited in Southport CT was the best of the best and always loves a challenge. As always he delivered went above and beyond and spent alot of time to make it run flawless! I supplied the ammo, parts and labor came to $260. Port and polished everything(even the mags), fabed custom springs and firing pin, and did a full trigger job. He got the pull down to 5 pounds. I’m super impressed this gun now runs like a flawless champ! I bring it to the range all the time! It’s always a great head turner! And I’m really glad I didn’t give up!🤘
That sounds awesome! One of the coolest guns in my opinion for sure.
Hmm I hate to dump any more money on my M31. I was pissed at TMW because I called them for help because but I was one week out of my 1 year warranty and they wouldn’t do anything. Mine will run 10 or so rounds then start smashing the rounds
I don’t really regret buying any of my stuff, i just collect until i fill up my house
You should know better than buying a keltec
it's so funny... I think everybody who has every made a list like this has a kal-teck in it. lol
+X-Ray Crystallography 😂😂😂 trust me, the Kel Tec is anything but reliable.
My kel-tec KSG is pretty bad ass.
Zach Mallory Kel-Tec isn't the gun it's the producer
You call 500 bucks cheap??? I can't remember the last time I had 500 dollars just sitting around in my bank account. Hell I bought an old Turkish Mauser for 225 bucks and had to put it on layaway.
Sucks to be poor. Maybe you should find a cheaper hobby then.
😂
You gotta get that you tube money boii
@@TheFlyingCougar Maybe you shouldn't be a dick, maybe then people would actually like you.
Try Hornady XTF 45 grain 22 WMR in your PMR-30. PMR-30's hate ammo below 40 grains, but the Hornady 45 Grain has run 900 rounds through mine without a hick up. If you use 33 grain and below, especially JHP's expect frequent problems. Just my experience. After you try the Hornady rounds, your buyers remorse may pass :)
Ken Kaufman I had the same issue. High grain fix it. Also my hammer pin broke. Called keltec and they shipped me 3.
Thanks for the info. I've had problems with my PMR-30 also. It's a shit load of fun to shoot tho. So the jamming is annoying but I don't regret buying it.
My pmr 30 had the same problems, but I found that the bolt had a small piece of metal that stopped rounds from ejecting, I cut it off and now it works perfectly.
I will never regret my purchase of my mosin rifle love it
Why do i regret mine :(, exsniper tula
That bolt is too infuriating for me to justify purchasing one
I'm with you on that man. It's the first surplus rifle I ever bought and I have fun hunting with it.
Heres a better ri... nyet! Rifle is fine
Couldn't agree more it's a cheap reliable and accurate gun

+Modski Yes.

You should pick up another PMR-30. They've fixed them as far as I can tell. Mine works great.
what did they fix up cuz...the pmr is kinda one of my bucket list guns...I feel like less capacity would be the key
Savage .22 semi automatic rifle, got it from walmart and it's not reliable. Almost cost me my eye cause it blew up on me.
.22 ....... pellets? :-D
CryptoCrazyJoe pellets can’t kill
I had one. You're right.
I've been a gun collector for about 50 years now. I served as a fighter pilot in the USAF, as a sheriff's deputy and federal swat commander (narcotics entry team) and retired as an airline captain licensed to carry on the flight deck. I'm a Texas native and grew up on the family's 240,000 acre cattle ranch in west Texas. I'm a master gunsmith/armorer and firearms instructor and range master.
To say that guns have been a large part of my life and the lives of my children and extended family would be an understatement.
My gun room holds over 400 guns, from some of the earliest black powder match lock, wheel lock, and percussion cap guns to the most modern hunting, defensive, and military hardware available today.
I don't regret historic purchases, as we humans learned at least as much from our blunders as from our successes.
I do see why you regret some of yours, as I have bought many of the same weapons and been terribly disappointed. Even though I knew the guns in question had severe drawbacks, I still expected a base level of functionality that just wasn't there.
The only point you made that I had difficulty with was the 10 ga goose gun. My father gave me the same gun for hunting larger game birds with bird shot, and hogs as well as deer using 10 ga slugs.
The recoil really isn't too bad, I generally added a slip on rubber buffer to the shoulder stock as a flannel shirt over a t shirt is as winterized as we get.
As for availability, I've been hunting with a 10 ga for about 60 years, and have never found ammo to be scarce. You can always reload yourself if need be. Learning to reload your own ammo is a relaxing and rewarding experience, and may indeed become necessary over the next few years, the way things are going.
I would suggest that everyone obtain a few firearms and keep them together, along with the
Equipment, knowledge, and ingredients needed for making gunpowder.
There is no way to know if society will indeed collapse, but the old saying about rather "have it and not need it than need it and not have it" comes to mind.

***** I had careful hopes if they had some decent rifles and shotguns... they all same crap too? That M1 remake seems sort of interesting, but there are still some real M1 carbines available.
Maverick 12ga pump. This is an inexpensive Mossberg 500 clone. The gun shoots great, but the chamber gets loaded up with residue.
Shells 1-15 great.
16-20 hard to close.
21-25, struggling to close slide.
Not good shooting trap.
Same Federal ammo in my 870, no problem for 100+ rounds.
Something weird about the chamber.
Kevin Moore really ! Fuck I was set on pulling the trigger on it.
Maybe it's your gun, took my Maverick 88 out fired 200 rounds out of it, was still smooth as glass afterwards. Slugs, target load, 00buck, etc it ate everything I threw at it. But I don't go out shooting alot, so take it with a grain of salt. My own complaint is my bead sight got canted because the thread stuck out into the barrel and wasn't flush, and slugs threw it out of place, but a little bit of sanding fixed that.
but original finnish kp39 Works like a dream
Yep
All of my airsoft guns as no one plays anymore. And I'm in college so they just gather dust at home anyways.

you had me up until the bps 10 gauge. I have one and love it. It will hold its value better than other gauges as there are less of them in circulation. They pattern better than the 12g 3.5''. 10g ammo is a little tougher to find but can be found locally and online(i reload for it so no need) and is about the same price as 12g 3.5'' shells. Also with the same reloading components the 10g will run a lower pressure.
I love mine too and wouldn't trade it for any 12. Thankfully I believe the caliber is here to stay.
Have the ducks unlimited version and it hauls ass! And since we can't use lead shot anymore anything I hit now plays dead.
@@andrewsarah2 that 3 1/2 12 gauge Browning Pump has a 12 gauge chamber and a 10 gauge barrel. It is no wonder it patterns like crap. It is almost as heavy as the 10 gauge but it doesn't pack the punch of the 10 gauge.
I saw a guy with a semi auto ten. He was probably 300 pounds or the gun would have knocked him on his ass.
As time has gone by, I see that 12ga 3 1/2”
are not being carried in as many stores. I’ll take my 10ga magnum any day. It has a better pattern and a lighter recoil. And 15 years down the road from now, ammo will still be available.
*cries in UK*
@japncuz *you* do that
im not even a collector and i could have told you not to buy that shit
👍

NOpe, i'm a guy, what the colt pocket doesn't remind you of a 1911?, if you don't like those i don't know about you man, personally for a daily carry i'd opt for a tuned CZ97 if I was gonna carry a .45, or 9mm CZ75b
what does that have to do with anything?

my number 1 regret was the cz75 Sp01 shadow mate Canadian edition its a silver finish and scatches easy has wear already just from the holster an i dont even put it in there that often paid 1800 lololol
$1800!!?? Holy crap!
Anything with a gold or silver finish is meant to be a safe queen.
***** Nickel and titanium are not soft metals like gold and silver.
***** Guns are sometimes made with actual silver finishes. These guns are meant to be safe queens.
+spencz111 Maybe it is more because he said he got it in canada. Ar 15 pmags are 40 dollars and are pinned at 10 rounds.
Disagree with your description of the PMR-30. I've had mine for over three years. And yes, it did have feed issues. However by using the recommended CCI or Hornady ammunition that issue has gone away.
well... there was this one time where i wanted an awp but i clicked on heavy instead of rifles so i accidentaly bought an M249. goddamn csgo

I once had a Walther PP (Not the PPK) in 22LR. The bastard would never go through a magazine without jamming. It looked well made but was totally unreliable. I don't know if the 9mm version is better (I would hope it is..) I'll never buy another Walther.
As a matter of interest, I have yet to see a malfunction occur in the Artillery Luger (as long as factory ammo is used). - 100 years old and is totally dependable.
have you not acquired a chiappa rhino? everyone talks a lot of smack about those.
I had a chance at getting a double barrel 10 gauge years ago. The guy selling it was looking to change to a 12 gauge. He gave me a few shells to go try it out. Not noticing he gave me T shot I blasted one off. Recoil was so harsh it startled me. 2 more shots later I was done. My shoulder felt like my arm was out of its socket.
I regret purchasing a mosin when I could have invested in a better firearm
Indeed.
+TFB TV Suomi smg is good smg too ㅠㅠ

+Go Eat A Towel
While I agree that you can get a better gun than a Mosin, for a full power bolt action rifle you can't beat it for initial expense, ammo cost, and parts availability. Throw in the fact that off your shoulder at 100 yards you can ring 12" steel all day despite cleaning it whenever you get around to it, and you don't have to worry about banging it around. I'm a WWII collector with most of the prolific bolt actions issued from all sides and my Mosin is what I take out of the safe more than any other. Besides, I kind like the fact that it sounds like a cannon, spits out a huge fireball, and kicks like a mule, the latter of which is easily mitigated with a recoil pad.
+Go Eat A Towel I really like my Mosin.
Im from finland and when i hear that in this list is a weapon from finland im like send the hounds aka mr burns from simpsons
nice presentation - thanks for sharing your knowledge
Thanks for watching!
my biggest regret is buying a kriss vector. i have an ffl and i picked up the full auto version when they became available and man is that gun one of the biggest pieces of shit i have ever had the displeasure of interacting with. aside from general cycling issues. it is completely unwieldy and not ergonomic, on full auto it is difficult to control, and every couple hundred rounds either the firing pin or the bolt would break. it cycles too damn fast for it's own good and it puts too much stress on the bcg
Lol and its ugly too
Ditto. Most regrettable purchase.
The Kriss was a prototype, new vectors have been refined.
Vectors suck, it's a fact.

On a slider mechanism on your wrist...
Dont forget anything from Keltec
(Edit) I spoke too soon hahahahaha you have a keltec hahahaha, my dad had a keltec that had a trigger pull which felt like 20 pounds
I kinda really want that keltec bullpup rifle. Cause it looks like it belongs in 2045. Maybe even the CA compliant variant for the ridiculous factor 😂
They're much too expensive though... ☹️
Regret buying my mosin Nagant hate how hard the bolt it and my son struggles with the trigger pull but then again I got it for 7$ so I should've thought about quality
7 whole dollars
Holly... 7 bucks? For a Nagant? Even if it is just for a wall hanger, thats a sweet deal.
Clonetrone I mean, bolt and trigger repairs can be cheap if you have a good gunsmith in your area (Or if you know how to repair them), a seven dollars Mosin is basically free.

no shit
+skylar gibson I am unsure if they make these, but you can try putting a compensator on the muzzle if yours isnt machined with a muzzle brake.
Probably never tried
+skylar gibson You just need some good after-market grips on that pumpkin mag. If your going target plinking shoot some low power rounds for hand longevity. Load the magnums when you want to blow some boars in half. I shoot a S&W.44 mag J-frame (notorious hand bruising for many people) stock wood grips with 1400 fps homemade hot-load 300 gr wad-cutters. I got skinny hands and it doesn't bother me to throw a box through it. If you keep your elbow bent more it will help your hand with the recoil also, just don't limp wrist it unless you don't like your front teeth.
+skylar gibson I have a friend who has one just for the purpose of saying he has one. I took the opportunity to shoot a cylinder of five rounds just to say I did it. Ammunition is crazy expensive and even with ear protection in my ears were still ringing! But, if he needed to, he could kill and elephant.
Thanks for the review on the kel-tec pistol, I've been waffling over buying it. Looks like I am going to get the Ruger instead. Haven't had much luck with anything kel-tec they just are too unreliable for serious consideration.
