Sephiroth Posted July 22, 2003 i am sure many of u may have odd collections of some sort. me i have collected old computer parts. however i want to collect a few WW II and cold war era arms and artifacts. i own a japanes rifle and knife from WII and i just ordered a panzerfaust(disarmed, duh). I have an AK-47, back home, and a soviet flag, also back home. ordered a NEW soviet flag too with my panzerfaust. would like to get tank fired or artillery shells from all sides of WW II 0 Share this post Link to post
Sephiroth Posted July 22, 2003 u get those cheap, AK-47, provided u are out side the US. back home i have one and so does my uncle, cant exactly take it home with me on the plane. I could send its parts though, but i am not that desperit to have it with me. if i wanted to bring it into the US i am sure there is a type of permit i can get. funny is my uncle will use it to kill the chickens, cows or what ever animal they eat that week. almost everything over there is old soviet stuff and its all cheap. like $75 is about the most you would pay for a AK-47, however 20-30 is the normal price. landmines 2-10 dollars, but havnt seen any in years. and a few other small arms. 0 Share this post Link to post

Tyockell Posted July 22, 2003 fuck this shit im moving there, I need a god damn AK 47 now. I mean you cant even get a fucking shotgun here without like 3 permits, hell you even need a permit for a air rifle that shoots over 500 feet per second! you cant do shit with that you be better off with a slingshot. Hmm as for wierd colections, reptiles and amphibians, spent caseings for weapons and any melee weapons. 0 Share this post Link to post
Ichor Posted July 22, 2003 I've got just over 100 boomerangs of various sizes and shapes. All but around 5 of them work perfectly (those 5 are the ones I have not made myself). 0 Share this post Link to post

pritch Posted July 22, 2003 This is about personal weaponry, right? Heh, I have a .22 pellet hunting rifle with telescopic sights. It requires a licence in the UK as it has a considerable muzzle velocity. I can keep this at home. I've shot at a club since I was 11. I have a Makarov pistol, from Russia, down there, which was bought for me some time ago. Russian stuff is very well made btw. The thing has paperwork in Russian with several signatures from various inspectors and dates. Since I turned 18 I am the owner, but it must remain at the club like all handguns, so I could hardly cause havoc with it. I could bring it home but I'd have to strip it and keep it under lock, plus get additional insurance (gay). At the same club, we have a 25 yard range for live .22 ammo practice, my favourite. We use these commonplace but decent German breach rifles for this. I started shooting this way and am good at this, heh, can often score a perfect 300/300. Mind you, it's possible to score 297/300 through perfect grouping alone. I also have a few BB guns, ranging in power and accuracy. Every so often I'll take them out and shoot cans filled with water in the garden. 0 Share this post Link to post

Thats why you buy illegal handguns, there pricey but you can do w/e the fuck you want but thats just my preference lol. 0 Share this post Link to post

IMJack Posted July 23, 2003 I have about a half-dozen shitty-riffic HP Brios sitting under my desk and six nonworking Intermec "Trakker" scanners sitting on my left. I don't own them, I just fix the damn things or let them sit until they decompose. 0 Share this post Link to post

Melfice Posted July 25, 2003 I collect Magic: the Gathering cards. That's not the strange part though. Everytime I trade a friend for a card, I have them sign it at the bottom with some sort of paint pen or permanent marker :P. I also collect the boxes that the packs of cards come in, lol. Oh yeah, and I love sunglasses. I have like 15 different pairs just from this summer. 0 Share this post Link to post
