  • TL7 Handguns
    Deep Web Secret Deep Web Secret Automatic Pistols These weapons use Guns(Pistol)/TL7 skill. AMT Automag .44 AutoMag (Holdout -2) AMT Original Automag: A large single action semi automatic weapon, this is the original Automag by Harry Sanford. When it was introduced in the seventies this was the first pistol to fire high powered magnum cartridges. Clint Eastwood takes a break from his .44 Magnum to use the .44 Automag in one of his Dirty Harry films. It has been out of production for close to two decades now, but after Harry Sanford died in early 1999 the AMT factory was sold off, and the new owners decided to run a limited series of original Automags in the .44 AMP caliber. These guns will be exact copies of the original guns. This may also mean that they will only function properly with full powered loads, and that some parts (most notably the extractor) will be somewhat fragile. Most likely these guns will seldom be fired anyway, as they are instant collectors items due to their reputation and their flashy, sleek and slightly futuristic looks. Should these guns be used they will look very intimidating and at the same time classy, combined with a lot of recoil... The Automag is a recoil operated pistol, is made entirely of stainless steel, and these new guns are of excellent quality, unlike some of the last pistols made in the seventies. They are very accurate. The magazine holds seven rounds of .44 AMP ammo. AMT Automag III (Holdout -2) A large single action semi automatic weapon, this is the brainchild of Harry Sanford, creator of the original automag.

Alley, Jr. (Part I) and John A. DeBin (Part II) James Alley and John DeBin joined together to tell us the history of the Belgium based Fabrique Nationale d’Arms de Guerre (the National Factory of Weapons of War) and the Fabrique Nationale Model 49 military rifle. They shared with us the early his- tory of the manufacturer and the characteristics of the prototypes and those of the numerous contracts garnered for several countries. They covered all aspects of this quality high powered semi-automatic rifle.

The Belgium-based Fabrique Nationale d’Arms de Guerre (National Factory of Weapons of War) (Figure 1) most commonly known as F.N. is no exception. F.N. started in 1889 as a conglomerate of arms makers in and around Liege, Belgium, who joined together to build an arms factory to produce the Mauser designed Model 1889 rifle for the Belgium Government.1 Like many of the other major European arms makers, F.N.

  • A List of Ballistics and Weapons for Savage Worlds by Erron “Bo” Whitten © 2003 [email protected]
    A list of Ballistics and Weapons for Savage Worlds By Erron “Bo” Whitten © 2003 [email protected] Introduction The following data is compiled from a ballistics formula used by various organizations to determine data for a “rounds comparison.” I am using the data and the statistics from Savage Worlds to create this Ballistics List. It is as accurate as possible. To use it simply find data about the weapon in question and compare it to this information. The ballistics are for most rounds on the market. Type is the type of round in question. RF = Rimfire; CFP = Center Fire Pistol; CFR = Center Fire Rifle; CFAC = Center Fire Auto Cannon (I only included the 20mm American round); CFRP = Center Fire Rifle in a Pistol; CFPR = Center Fire Pistol in a Rifle; SG = Shot Gun; BP = Black Powder; BPSG = Black Powder Shot Gun. A rifle round used in a pistol reduces its damage due to lack of a barrel of sufficient length to allow the full expansion of the gases produced by the powder charge. A pistol round in a rifle has an increase of damage due to the increase of gas pressures due to the increase of chamber area in a lengthened barrel.

  • Chapter 2. What Are “Firearms” Under the Nfa?
    CHAPTER 2. WHAT ARE “FIREARMS” UNDER THE NFA? Section 2.1 Types of NFA firearms The NFA defines the specific types of firearms subject to the provisions of the Act. These definitions describe the function, design, configuration and/or dimensions that weapons must have to be NFA firearms. In addition to describing the weapon, some definitions (machinegun, rifle, shotgun, any other weapon) state that the firearm described also includes a weapon that can be readily restored to fire. A firearm that can be readily restored to fire is a firearm that in its present condition is incapable of expelling a projectile by the action of an explosive (or, in the case of a machinegun, will not in its present condition shoot automatically) but which can be restored to a functional condition by the replacement of missing or defective component parts. Please be aware that case law is not specific but courts have held that the “readily restorable” test is satisfied where a firearm can be made capable of renewed automatic operation, even if it requires some degree of skill and the use of tools and parts. 2.1.1 Shotgun A shotgun is a firearm designed to be fired from the shoulder and designed to use the energy of the explosive in a fixed shotgun shell to fire through a smooth bore either a number of projectiles or a single projectile for each pull of the trigger.10 A shotgun subject to the NFA has a barrel or barrels of less than 18 inches in length. | 15 inches _ | The ATF procedure for measuring barrel length is to measure from the closed bolt (or breech-face) to the furthermost end of the barrel or permanently attached muzzle device.

Prof. Franco Gatti Correlatrice Ch.ma Prof.ssa Magda Abbiati Laureando Federico Ielapi Matricola 840797 Anno Accademico 2019/2020 2 前言 这篇论文的目的是讨论关于一种现代非常有影响力、并用于参加战争的枪械— —突击步枪。虽然有很多不同特点的突击步枪,但是一般来说突击步枪是一种可以 使用自动方式、半自动方式的枪械。自动方式在于扣枪机时就连发射击——手工装 步枪弹匣、发射、退壳并把新枪弹放在弹匣里的动作都是自动的,也可以连发射击 直到弹药射完。半自动步枪跟自动步枪的形态一样,不过半自动方式是让步枪单发 射击的结构,不能连发射击。 本论文分为两个部分,第一部分有四个章节。 第一章来介绍突击步枪,并分析它结构上的。世界领先的突击步枪的是第二 世界大战时德国希特勒纳粹制造的,叫 Stürmgewehr 44,又称 StG 44。因为这支步 枪首次提供连发射击与单发射击这两个方式,所以专家把 StG 44 认作是所有突击步 枪的原型。其次,这一章还分析了苏联和美国制作的步枪。第二世界大战以后,这 两个国家的政治、军事理想让它们成为冷战时代的主要国家,所以本论文专门分析 了特别著名的卡拉什尼科夫和科尔特的突击步枪。此外,本章还讨论了关于中国制 造或采用的最重要的突击步枪,如 56 式冲锋枪、81 式自动步枪、QBZ95 式自动步 枪。这些突击步枪都是中国兵器工业集团有限公司生产的。中国兵器工业集团有限 公司,简称中国兵器 NORINCO GROUP,是中国陆军装备研制生产的主体。 第二章集中讨论了意大利最重要的突击步枪,特别是近几年的突击步枪,即 伯莱塔 ARX160 突击步枪和它的变种。这些突击步枪都是伯莱塔有限公司研制和生 产的。意大利的皮埃特罗·伯莱塔有限公司是世界上最古老的枪械生产工业组织之 一,文献资料显示,在 1526 年,Gardone 的马斯特洛·巴尔特罗梅奥·伯莱塔收到 了威尼斯兵工厂的 296 个达克特币(古代欧洲各国流通的钱币)作为 185 套火绳枪 枪管的订金。这段历史说明,早在 16世纪初期伯莱塔家族就已经开始生产武器了1。 第三章内含一份表格,这份表格的目标是总结本论文讨论的突击步枪的出口 情况,包括样式名称、生产国家和用户国家。 第四章是关于意大利和中国的政治、立法情况,尤其是买枪械、枪械所有制、 持枪证、进口、出口的立法情况。一方面,2017 年 5 月 17 日欧洲议会和欧洲理事会 发出了一个指令,关于枪械获得和拥有的控制的前面指令,2018 年 9 月 14 日开始生 效。另一方面,现在中国之所以是世界上很少有联枪械罪行的国家之一,是因为中 1 http://firearmsworld.net/italy/beretta/beretta.htm. 3 华人民共和国建国以来政府严格地控制枪械。二十世纪九十年代,为了加强枪支管 理,维护社会治安秩序,保障公共安全,中国政府规定了《中华人民共和国枪支管 理法》,这套法律于 1996 年 10 月 1 日施行。 这篇论文的第二部分包含一个意汉术语目录,这一目录遵循的是里雅斯 特译员现代语言学校发展的

  • Small Arms Survey 2005

(© Crispin Hughes/Panos Pictures) Sourcing the Tools of War: SMALL ARMS SUPPLIES TO CONFLICT ZONES 6 INTRODUCTION International illicit arms transfers to conflict and war zones often display features characteristic of newsworthy stories.1 They tend to involve shady, greedy dealers and financiers with Hollywood-type lifestyles; suspicious means of trans- port, with airplane registrations being changed mid-flight and jets sometimes touching down on tarmac in the middle of the jungle; and disturbingly ruthless recipients. Some cases embroil politicians and other public figures. No wonder, then, that the media are particularly eager to cover this aspect of the small arms problem. Given the intense political debates about whether to supply arms and ammunition to areas of conflict, researchers and analysts also devote substantial attention to this issue. The dynamics at work here are complex: states are pitted against religious and human rights groups; exporter states confront states that refuse to authorize particular deals; peace activists denounce gun manufacturers; and so on. Many NGOs, some intergovernmental organizations, and cer- tain governments have reported on transfers of arms—including small arms and light weapons 2—to various conflict zones, some of them under arms embargo. These reports provide invaluable insight into individual transfers of weapons as well as transfer patterns to particular conflict zones. Much of the writing concentrates on large international transfers to conflict regions—such as those involving many hundreds of weapons or millions of rounds of ammunition.3 Today this focus is also partly reflected by the international agenda, which endorses measures to control broker- ing, improve end-user documentation and controls, and reinforce and extend international arms embargoes.
