Know ones that had a very limited capacity or single shot fired a large round filled with birdshot
Something bit like that
It's just, when I'm looking at it.
No bolt.
Not familiar with those kinds of firearms really, most were iffy to use and weren't used in military service
How do you load it.
Yeah 1st thing I saw no bolt or changing handle so I'm thinking maybe a semi automatic shotgun with a depress lever
Load it and chamber a round after bolts traveled, but you'd still need a way to cycle the bolt
Unless a work in progress and they're building a gun
I doubt it, my uncle is no gunsmith that I know of.
Gonna need to carve out the stock more, get a better barrel bloody hell it's rusted to hell! Sights or an optic, a working bolt action I'd reccomend for that probably aluminium alloy as slightly lighter receiver but keep the bolt steel since it's the moving part
Probably go .30 caliber round with that .308 would be good nice balance between power and recoil, think need to make the rifle heavier or more robust for a 30-06
And obviously give the wood a nice varnish
Well, I'll have to ask my uncle. Since he left it out in the open, that thing would need a nice restoration. No one has touched it for years.
Here in Spain we aren't very gun friendly, and it would be a shame one of the few we have, ends up like this.
😆
Looks like half the parts are either broken or missing, If I was still in the states I'd love to do her up
Be what $250 full restoration and any modifications would be added onto the price but at a 20% discount as being restored
What Ralph used to do lol
I'm looking at pictures, and maybe it's a pellet gun, not a real rifle.
Good times working in the shop modding, repairing, restoring and of course testing guns
Heh, I guess he suspects it too.
Could be because I don't see from that angle how it loads
Just based on the cheap cuts and no real action or striker hammer
Cool bb gun tho
Could if you really wanted rip it apart and convert it to a real rifle
Regardless, I would like to restore it one day.
Though would take some work
Prob not...
Though it's not real, it would be a cool first gun.
It wouldnt be safe to convert
Would for .22lr lol
Prob not
BB barrels are smooth bore and require no pressure rating
Even 22lr needs a pressure rating or the barrel will peel lile a banana or explode in your face
Yeah probably right really be best to simply build from scratch or buy a rifle
Or just buy a cheap 22lr rifle for a couple hundred bucks
My phone keeps bugging me to update, ffs I'll be back
A laser. I don’t have a rail on the bottom of the handguard yet so yeah.
