My guns
Guns, that were fired by me, or were in my hands
- AK-47 - real, but non-functional, used in school lessons. There were also frequently used and very broken wooden models in our school.
- Olympic 6 Blank Firing Revolver - starter revolver made in Italy. Was in my hands many times.
- Makarov PM - non-functional, was in my hands, though holstered and only a few seconds.
- Unknown air rifle - fired it as a part of school lessons.
- Unknown air pistol - belong to my neighbour. With laser aiming device.
- Wooden models of Tokarev TT-33 Pistol, AK-47, PPSh-41, MP40, Mosin Nagant Rifle and Degtyaryov DP Series Machine Gun.
Airsoft guns
Started to collect cheap chinese budget springer airsoft (6mm BB bullet) guns in my childhood and didn't stop even now. So :
- Steyr TMP (Star Modalairgun, series 98, M30) - intrails partially broken (it's non-functional when all details is on their place - don't ask me how - i don't know), but the gun still looks good. Some places were superglued by me.
- Sawn-off Double-Barelled Shotgun - bought this because I really like Mad Max movies and Sam Raimi's The Evil Dead trilogy, as well as some other films where such a gun were used. As the shotgun in Mad Max it's based ossibly on Savage/Stevens 311A Shotgun, but more likely a VG Bentley. Good thing, fits the hand right and looks pretty well, though of course there are some inaccurate pr just bad made details (for example guard was very bad and broke out just in a few days. It's repaired now but only as a decoration). It's still good anyway and you can even load actual blanc from real gun if you extract actual 6mm barrells (which is quite simple and good function). (NEW(Bought on 28 of November 2011).
- M39 Doubleeagle (301-94112) - mostly based on Ruger P89 (though have Colt Double Eagle marks on it) with compensator (now broken and superglued by me to gun itself) making it look like famous Robocop Auto 9.
- S.T.A.R.S R.P.D Special Team (Custom Kendo Shop No:203) - Colt-Browning type pistol with Colt logos similar to Colt Mustangs ones. With laserlock sight. Was repaired by me (some broken details superglued).
- MX Air Gun Series P195 - pistol with sound supressor (that have word "Silencer" in Walther-style logo) and multi-functional device consisting of laserlock sight, ultra-violet lighting device (to spot yellow BB bullet flight in the night) and aiming device. Trigger mechanism was terribly broken on 17 august of 2010, though some details can be used with another MX guns.
- Omega NO:M649 - something like a mix of Llama-M82 and Llama-M87 with "Omega" logo similar to that of Springfield Armory Omega among with words "Gabilondo Y Cia, Vitoria -Espana-", though "Made in China" is written nearby. :)
- Mix of Walther PPK and SIG-Sauer P230 (Yesheng Toys) - was frequently used and now looks terrible because of minor brokes and scratches, but still functioning. Magazine form reminiscent to Bersa Thunder 380 but it's not Bersa and not Astra Constable. It's also can be based on PSM pistol or FEG PA-63, but most likely it was based on unclear photo of one of those pistols.
- GYF 555-2008 - pocket pistol. Looks like it based on real gun, but i don't know what exectly. Has similarities with Desert Eagle and Beretta 9000S.
- MX Air Gun Series P201 - yet another unidentified pocket pistol. Recycles some details of broken MX Air Gun Series P195 (most cool ability is to change barrel - short as original and long from P195, that can be used with supressor).
- Smith & Wesson Model 19 NO:028 or NO:928 (there's a scratch) - ridiculous, childish, but recognizable copy of Smith & Wesson Model 19 revolver with very simple mechanism. Obviously smaller then original revolver.
- Xin Lian Fa Qiang TM (NO:668) - childish pocket pistol with the same mechanism as previous. Believed to be based on SIG-Sauer P220 pistol series. From 2nd of May of this (2010) year has some minor but obvious brokes.
- Python.357 (Okwanju No:357) - pseudo-revolver (cylinder is only non-functional decorative element), loosley based on Colt Python (have some identical details, but shape is different). (bought on 29 of April in 2010))
- Okwanju No:108 - yet another good-looking pseudo-revolver loosely based on Taurus Raging Bull, Ruger GP100 and/or Smith & Wesson Performance Center Model 629, though looks good and due to identical details can be posed as a modification of Taurus, for example. (NEW(Bought on 24th of January 2011).
- There was also perfect-looking Cyma Sig Sauer Pro SP 2340 copy airsoft gun in my collection, but it's totally broken now. I've found only polypropylene package from it in the attic and, perhaps trigger. :(
- Omega NO:M650 - pocket pistol, has "Omega" logo similar to that of Springfield Armory Omega from the same series, that also include NO:M649. Technical part done very bad (China, of course), but painted very good - looks like real metal in normal lighting (Bought in September of 2010).
Non-airsoft (but intersting) prop and toy guns
And here is some interesting non-airsoft toy guns, that in my collection too.
- COP 357 Derringer (Shuang Xiang P.05-1) - black cap (primitive pyrotechnic) gun. Functional parts rust and broken because of frequent using. Now mostly repaired using details from the other broken piston gun. Looks very good, but some details differ from original gun, most noticeable trigger. Though it can be considered as a customized COP 357 Derringer, when used (for example in the movies, as i'm also independent film-maker with some lack of expirience (thoudg, i was in a prop departament of one professional big budget movie). There are revolver-type cylinder, hidden in the gun, that fires with the help of 8 shot plastic disc cap (frequently nicknamed "piston" in post-soviet countries), each shot of which filled with pyrotechnic composition (potassium chlorate, red phosphorus, sand and glue). Those caps can be bought in 72 shots packages.
- Old Water Gun Pistol - looks pretty good, i think it's based on real firearm, but i still didn't find which one.
- Dianhua 383 8-shooter - chinese cap revolver, without any real prototype. Was fitted with cylinder from another, broken cap gun, because original was not only broken, but also blue with red glass-like details (horrible, now partially used in COP 357 Derringer, where such a mechanism hidden). Aiming device is broken. Looks idiosyncratic, but has some style and charm, especially because of some details like barrel were painted gold and beacause of blue plates (very unusual).(bought in August of 2010).
- Mix of Smith & Wesson Model 66 with Smith & Wesson Model 624 Snub Nose - hilariously bad made toy gun (the one which shot sucker punches), when it was first time in my hands trigger totally broke out, when it fired the first time all the trigger mechanism jumped from the barrell... Anyway, for a 3 hrivnas (38 cents) it's quite good-looking thing which, I think, I'll modify as a non-functional, or functional prop that can stand for any of the two revolvers. (NEW(Bought on 22nd of February in 2011).
- Boxing Glove Pistol. Nuff said. :)
- Various details from cap, airsoft and another toy guns - triggers, barrels, magazines, etc.
Fired blancs
Some fired blancs from real firearms also in my collection:
- S&B 9mm A.Blanc - looks very good.
- Unknown machinegun blanc - very big, if compared to previous.
- Unknown 9mm blanc - old and broken.
- Three 4mm fired blancs. Also, intersting detail, that 4mm guns can be legally owned without any license in Ukraine.
