New toy

Just waiting for a variation now. It's not an image of the actual item but then they all look the same. (No doubt that will get GCHQ buzzing!)

If you don't have to give up your car because other people commit crimes in their cars, why should I have to give up my firearms because other people commit crimes with their firearms?

If you need to ask, you'll never understand the answer. :lol:


P.S. It was dirt cheap.

I don't have one of those. I bought a semiauto Sten instead. :)

I wouldn't have one - the magazine is too large and I couldn't afford to keep filling it up when Tim "borrowed" it.

It's actually a Pietta PPS/50 lookalike of the Russian sub machine gun, the PPSh-41. It shoots .22 rimfire semi auto. As far as I can establish it is second in uselessness only to the .22 rimfire 'Mares Leg'. But, on the upside it looks different and is likely to be great fun at the range. Shooting rabbits on a permission, though, might get some attention.

You know that you would probably be better off with a doctored 10-22 to look like something else than that and Italian "might work if the moon in the right orbit " rifle. Ask Keef, he'd set you straight. ;) ;) ;) ;)

We need proof by way of pictures, with a newspaper front next to it to prove it's still alive.

Pictures of the Sten are easy. Pictures of the Spencer are difficult as it's in the back of the safe, :) :) :) :)
