Mauser k98, complete with swastikas, and most other markings. Yeah this is the gun that lead the way for germany during the second world war. Amazing rifle, loads of history. This one was captured by the soviets and then refurbished in case the russians needed to use them if hostilities ever started again.[br][img width=800 height=600]../../files/public/1216327793_201_FT0_rc_k98_.jpg[/img][br] |

Cool. Are you a good shot with it?
I would've personally gone with the Gewehr 43, though. I prefer the semi-automatics. |

Well Sergeant kelly if you wanna pay 1500-2000 dollars for a G43... be my guest. Besides for 300 dollars I got a rifle that is somewhat more accurate.
Id like to take it to the local range and give it a test with some yugoslavian 1992 sniper ammo to see what i can do with it. That bayonet goes to another rifle in the same family but different model and dimensions. Plus i think the bayonet lug on the rifle is slightly bent so it doesnt quite fit. I did just order an original German bayonet to go with the rifle though. Oh and my cam took a sh** Oh the stock of the rifle was made where cookoo clocks originated from. Same company. |

Personally I'd have gone for a Tommy Makenen turbocharger... lol But I'm a car guy, not a gun guy really. Even so, I need a new car before trying to do tuning to cars. A Honda Fit isn't a good chassis to work around. Lightweight, but I can find a 97 Impreza Version 5 weighing about 200lbs more, but easily able to reach 2500lbs. |

And I'm much rather have a topic on cars than guns. You need to stop buying new guns. What are you gonna do with them once you collected a bunch? Put them in a case when you get old. A car is useable and able to be driven even after 50+ years. You just replace a few parts and drive. A gun you eventually do replace parts too but... I doubt you'll end up keeping them when you are old and be able to really say much about your cars. I really hate the idea of buying guns to just collect.... A car is more fun IMO. Random thread with random post not even about the topic is LMFAO for me. ^^ |

A firearm is useable as long as it is maintaned, A firearm properly stored and maintained can be used 300+ years after it was made more if properly cared for. Many firearms need noparts replaced. Im gonna collect as many firearms as possible that way when I have more to use as i get old, then i can give them to my children and they can give them to their children. Plus firearms have a much more interesting history. Plus most people that buy a firearm use them, that gun right there is gonna get shot quite a bit by me. Gonna take it hunting too. Buying a gun and not shooting it is like buying a car and not driving it. |

*Sigh* I'm not a fan of hunting. It is natural, yes, but I don't like to think of killing them myself. Try to kill them quick so they don't have to feel the pain. |

Every single piece can have a real history of automotive importance. I don't mean to go to nuts and bolts, but for example: McLaren F1. The car's designer (IIRC, Gordon Murray) designed this as the ultimate driver's car. To do so, he was using so many different things that were advanced for the time. Even so (I'm skipping 95% of things here), he was never fully satisfied by the car. It held speed records for 10 years, which seems very short to us, but 10 years in a fast paced world is an eternity. Consider how the production car tops peed record keeps getting broken these days. Tell me what car is in front right now (and don't use Wikipedia or any search engine). Sargeant Smash wrote: Buying a gun and not shooting it is like buying a car and not driving it.
^^ I'll agree here. However, some cars (and guns) are just not meant to be used. I don't think you want to drive a TS020 road car around town, considering it is literally one of kind (the road car I mean). I don't know of a gun example, but there are some prized pieces you'd never want to use. |

If I buy a car I'm going to want to use it.
Ah McLaren,it was THE car of the NFS series.Even then I'd probably be caught in my Ferrari instead.

lol, we are parasitating Sargeant Smash's topic.. we all are parasites... but this record i don't have an idea.(can we use wikipedia now?) but it's a nice looking gun, smash. where you test it? I don't have guns, just a sword and a dagger. but my father had a revolver, methinks. I used to do Lego guns based in the Ut weapons btw and I played with my friends with those. with imaginary enemies.

I'll let you just have the answer (since Wiki will give the same thing, but you'd have to search). SSC Ultimate Aero TT. TT means Twin Turbo. It reached 257MPH, and theoretically can reach 274MPH but didn't have enough road to do so. |
