I didn't bother to tell him that I had to re-wire the main breaker box because some idiot had used the white wire for ground instead of the green one....Ah. Then you'd enjoy my post #71.

From GUNS MAGAZINE. Ignore the bottom caption as it is for factory made pistols/ The pearl handled pistol shown was made from a piece of railroad iron.

I remember back in the late 1960's Gun World had an article about a 1911 Colt pistol handmade in Vietnam or Cambodia, the Cao Dai pistols. I don't have a photo of it but it is mentioned in SMALL ARMS OF THE WORLD by Ed Ezell, 1977
Another interesting book is ZIPS, PIPES, AND PENS by Truby published by Palladin Press. It is loaded with various zip guns.
Then there is WEAPONS OF THE AMERICAN UNDERGROUND with aricles on home made sub machine guns.
In the 1980's there was a magazine FIREPOWER, which built and tested many of these machines. That is when LICENSED NEW machine guns were still legal to buy.
This is my last photo.
Yessir'e gun control works, doesn't it!

Thanks to both of you guys, especially Ruy Dias de Bivar for his 6 replies and the in depth answers he gave. I appreciate both of you answering. Very few people know about the guns made in Prisons, due mainly to the MSM hushing up any article that might mention them, and it is good to know someone out there has a memory as good as mine or at least(in the case of Ruy Dias)has done more research than I have lately on the subject. :)

I remember reading an article about Vietnam in one of the gun magazines some time around 1970 that showed a bolt action rifle that was a copy of a chinese WWII rifle that had been hand made with files and not much else. Once the knowledge of firearms is out there, it cannot be suppressed.Can you imagine making a gun out of a file? How about Carbine Williams making the M1 Carbine in prison? It just isn't possible to stamp out guns, regardless of what liberal a**hats tell us.

Sorry, while it may not be home made it is NOT an M3 Grease gun. The ejection port is on the wrong side, for one thing. Many sub-machine guns were made out of stamped parts and resembled the grease gun. BTW, I was in the army from 1950 to 1962 and us tankers were armed with grease guns, so I can tell one at a glance. The ejection port is on the right side of the weapon(right side determined if you were holding it)and they have a cocking groove in the bolt(early ones didn't). They were great weapons even though they looked cheap and shoddy.

I’ve watched enough people that I know you use cement for PVC and pipe tape for iron pipes.
And that you should shut the breaker for any outlets you’re replacing in a room.
Don’t know anything about cars, unfortunately.
Should we all have to conglomerate in a couple of states, I know I won’t be useless.

Then it’s a good thing I’ve never done the club scene.
Rock concerts are a different story, however.

This was a 240 volt, single phase circuit, with black, white and green wires. Black and white are hot, green is ground, is the "normal" way to wire it.
This guy had black and green hot, white ground.
I wondered why that damned box kept shocking me....

If it’s commercial and thus done as wires in flex or BX as opposed to Romex, B-phase should be something other than white. NEC 200-7

I meant to add that red is the usual color for B-phase in 240.
