[Mk-211]

@Y-T71 Looks great.

Do you make handles for SIG's?

 

[Y-T71]

Sorry, unfortunately I don't have a SIG to try.

Give it a shot!
It's easier than it looks.

I really want to try my hand at putting together a black powder kit.

I have wanted to do a small bore flintlock but that blunderbuss is pretty darn cool!

Thanks, it was pretty straightforward. Minimal carving and fitting, everything else was artistic interpretation. Definitely a satisfying project. I highly recommend giving it a go.

I keep looking at your pics , this thing "speaks to me" for some reason.

Did you use a torch to darken the wood before staining?

Yes sir, standard propane torch, walnut stain and then I did several layers of Tru-Oil.

Old school battle worn if you will

I like it.

Very nice touch!

Thanks, go get yourself a kit and dive in. It's worth it for the experience alone.

A buddy who rebuilds BP rifles has a blunderbuss he made some time ago. he says it's his pirate gun for "porch pirates"

Russian Makarov: the classic military version.

Don't be distracted by Paulina Andreeva - I don't know How to exclude her in this photo.

She was exploited so that people might notice possibly the most reliable semi-auto handgun ever manufactured.

My 1962 East German Mak:

Ihre deutsche Makarov ist Sehr Schön !

My brother has an East German Makarov and it's overall fit and finish at that time, rivaled that of contemporary U.S. manufacturers, like S&W and Ruger.

I also have an ex-Nazi transferred to the East German VoPo J.P. Sauer 38H.

jar : No Way! How Schlimm are the odds?!

I also have the Sauer 38H, but the decocking spring can’t be kept working (by a seasoned gunsmith here). .. otherwise 100 percent reliable.

Very nifty gun and so appealing.

If we exclude the muzzle energy, and my sprang issue (well, 77 year-old Gun), it would be my Namba Wan handgun.

the coffee has kicked in…my other “Zig- Zire” is the true commercial P225, proofed near the Kiel U-Boat ‘pens’.

Take a look yourself at that spring. Buy a handful of them, they're cheap and I bet YOU can get it right.

I also have one that had a really short service life. It was made in 1942 and captured in North Africa or Italy in '44.
