Hey there, /k/omrades. I've got some OC for you. I scanned it a few minutes ago. It's a German pictorial manual on how to use a Panzerfaust. I'll provide some translation if requested. Here's the background story and some other info about my day today that some of y'all might find interesting, Here goes:>At a gun show today here in Wisconsin >All kinds of cool milsurp, but horribly overpriced (as always) >Walking around with my M-39, trying to sell or trade up/down for something cool like an Eddystone, Swede Mauser, K-31, or Russian SKS. >Most of the fudds don't even know what it is >Getting lowballed >Guy asks me about my Finn >He's running the inevitable German/Nazi table, has all kinds of cool/rare shit >Find out he lives in the same town I do >We talk for like 30-45 minutes about all kinds of military/firearm related topics >He's pretty cool >He gives me the aforementioned OC that he was selling on his table for $5. >He has some nice Mausers on his table. >Strictly out of curiosity, I ask if he has or has come across any G-43s or K-43s >He smiles and pulls out a near-mint, Walther-produced G-43 from under the table and hands it to me. >pic related (but not the exact rifle in question) >I lovingly fingerfuck it >Am jelly as shit >We end our conversation, he gives me his card and says to call him if I want to go the range and shoot the G-43 or some of his other rare German rifles >He lets on that he has an Stg-44 as well >Oh my god So basically, I met a bro-tier local who let me play with a beautiful G-43, gave me a copy of a cool manual, and wants to take me out and shoot his rare German weapons. Wait 'til you hear about his story of how he got the G-43! Stories to be continued in subsequent posts. Join in if you want.>OC to follow immediately

>>10985239 I'm asking $375 for it. It's in damn near mint condition. At the very least it's NRA-Ex. Pic related looks a lot like it, condition wise. I've seen ones in way-shittier condition go for about what I'm asking. I just need to find a non-dealer to sell it to. I'm thinking of putting it on Armslist.

>At best it's a rifle that someone unfudded. That's what I have been thinking.
Meh, got it cheaper than some people were paying for RC's at the same time so I don't care too much.

>>10985279 Where are you?
I had a similar issue when trying to sell an M44.
I walked into a show and immediately dealers were asking me what I wanted for it. All were going, "That's too much." I walked around and saw a few on tables, cheapest was $150 so I asked $150 because the one on the table had a completely trashed stock. Mine was a nice hard wood with a nice grain and finish.
One dealer asked me how much I wanted, he scoffed and said, "That's way too much!"
I looked at his table and he wanted $250 for his beat to shit common Soviet M44s.

The only reason to bring a gun to a gun show is to trade for another gun.

i have $350 near my ass for you. no bs
DerStürmer !imcmUwmbw6
>>10985311 I live in central Wisconsin. Regarding your rifle, they ALL do that. It's some unspoken code among grumpy old dealers that if they can't mark it up for sale at least 100% more than what they paid for it then its not worth it. That's why they all try to jew the average joe down all the time. I had some guy say the exact same sentence to me that he said to you. Verbatim:
>"How much you gotta have for it?" >$375 >FOR A MOYZEEN? (He pronounced it that way.) THAT'S WAY TOO MUCH!" The guy acted like I'd told him that people normally defecate out of their mouths, and that he was the odd outlier who shits out of his butt.
>pic unrelated, but glorious DerStürmer !imcmUwmbw6

>>10984699 There was jack-shit at Waukesha save for a K-43 ('44) with the scope for $1,700, the occasional M1D, scoped K98s(Bubba'd and otherwise), and several decent rifles that I was $100 short of getting.
Got a mag for my CZ-52 though.

>>10985445 Hey man! Just FYI, I did end up responding to you in that thread yesterday, I just got sidetracked and it was 40 minutes later. Anyway, I think I've seen the exact M-1D in question at a past show. It's in the middle row right by the entrance and the guy wants like $3500-$4000, right? Were there any nice swiss rifles there?

>>10985564 Yeah, cosmolene's a bitch, and I also tend to stay away from fucked up sights. Depending on how damaged, it still could have been a decent deal. How was the stock and bluing on it?
>pic related HUEHUEBR !ctwJT1n.IY
>>10985600 Quite a bit of wear, bluing was actually decent. Stock was pretty damn good.
All the markings and words saying what model/year it was were gone.
I would've checked the bore, but
1. Can't remember how the fuck to take out an Enfield bolt
2. That fucker keeps talking to people and probably wouldn't remove the zip-tie.

>>10985647 >That fucker keeps talking to people >pic related I get that at every show I go to, as well. That and people staring at the exact same thing I want to look at for 5 straight minutes, even though its obvious they have no intention of buying it.
Also: Oh well, there's plenty of Enfields in the world. I want to get one myself sometime; I've never even shot one.
Good talking to you as always, man. I'm gonna go take a shower and get drunk. I've been on /k/ for so long now that my eyes hurt.
Next time I go to the Waukesha show I'll let you know. Maybe I'll see you there.

>>10985647 Just push the button down on the right side of the receiver and pull the bolt back. Then flip the bolt head to vertical and it will come out.
Or you could just open the bolt and shine a flashlight up the bore. That's what I do.

Oh, one more thing before I go out tonight. I actually did buy something at this show, and I got a great deal. I picked up a full box of Norma 180 gr. Oryx Soft Point ammo for $15. It's damn near impossible to get for less than $40, so that was nice. tl;dr - Good deals can be found at gun shows, it's just rare and you have to get there early-ish.>pic related

Hey WI /k/. I'm heading to the (small) gun show in De Pere tomorrow and the one in Appleton next month. There any rules against handgun purchasing at gun shows here? Yes, I moved up here a few years ago from IL. inb4 FIB, etc, you cheese munching, loveable asshats.

>>10986833 Hey, Flatlander, what's the deal with Chicago hunters? Why do they feel it's necessary to blow $3k on gear and tacticool in order to kill our antler-rats? All I've ever needed was blaze orange and a .30-30, and I bag two deer a season.

Actually, there are a ton of cheeseheads that load up like a kid at christmas when gun deer season opens up. they go less "tacticool" and more "orange electrically heated underwear" and tons of scent reduction gear. Same thing.

On the topic of acquiring ww2 arms at a steal. I've made a thread about it and a few posts but I found a mp40 while cleaning out a deceased ww2 medics home. Family didn't want anything to do with especially because it was illegal and asked me if I would please do away with it. Still own it though it is not kept on my property. Not to rub it in but f/a mp40 for free is tough to beat. I'd call it select fire but there's no switch its designed so you can squeeze off single rounds or hold for full auto. Rate of fire is nice n slow n very controllable. I'm gonna post some pics next weekend when I can get to it.

What I want to know is where are all the RC K/G43's? You know the russkie's got a bunch. But unless I blacked out for a few years, I've never seen one. Have they been imported? or destroyed?
