What does he call an M-1 Carbine or an M-14

 

[lg325]

Unless they changed it recently to be a security guard or bodyguard you can only use .30 caliber firearms.
Over 500.00 dollars is a good price for a professional-type firearm.

I should have typed in a handgun.

I had one of those, cool as hell but the front sight was held on with a set-screw.

Hell there are a shit-ton of .30 cal pistols....The most famous of which is the Soviet TT-33 and it clones.....7.62 X 25.

That one is pretty compared to my Vietnam bring-back 1936 Tula.

I have a German captured 1940.

I have a German captured 1940.

Like I said my example is pretty "homely".....Most of the Vietnam bring-backs are.

That said it still had a nice bore but the springs were pretty much shot so I ordered a spring pack from Wolff and got it up to snuff....Shoots great!

LOL, the slide pin had what looked like a nail stuck in it and peened-over so I replaced that too....I saved the "nail".

Marstar in Canada got in a bunch of WW-2 era Soviet TT-33s a few years back but they were all dip-blued refurbs.

I got mine from the GI who got it from the German.

I got a nice Walther PPK from him as well, all with capture papers.

Anything with a 7.62 or 7.63 desig is a 30 cal. Mauser Broomhandle, 7.63x25 is called "30 Mauser"
Tokarev, CZ52 use 7.62 x 25 which is a 30 cal. As Trop pointed out, the 30 carbine mauser.

All 7.62, are called 30 cal, 308 (7.62x51). 30-06 Garand is called "30 ball" Other 30 cals, 30-30, 7.62 x 54r, etc. It's the true bullet diameter not what the cal is called, for instance 38 special is actually .357" in dia, so is a 9mm luger, yet a 9x18 Mak is actually a true .38.

Yeah, lots 30 cal, still made. Don't believe everyone behind a gun counter.

I've always wondered about the Thompson Contender--heard a lot about them back in the 80-90s, not so much anymore. Interesting concept. T/C G2 Contender® Complete Pistol and Rifle System - Thompson/Center

Older Contenders don't stay around long when they show up at my LGS.....I had one in .35 Rem years ago and killed a couple of deer with it. That fancy passed and I traded it off.....If memory serves it had a 14" barrel.

I have had many of them, back with original contenders. Then mods, encores, etc got confused! In Maine the 45lc/410 was very popular. Road hunters used them for grouse and rabbit on the logging roads, illegal to shoot from a vehicle or close to the road of course. Yet they did. I had them in rifle, pistol and shotshell models.
