Pictured are various simple hand built submachine guns primarily recovered by police in and around Haifa District. Yet more examples of how an infinite supply of cheap and effective firearms will always be available to criminals and the wrongfully disarmed.

The big lesson is use the Internet box, the ballot box and the jury box, and throw out the “progressive” tyrants.

Then we can avoid another civil war.

We should disarm law abiding civil society so the non-law abiding un-civil society can possess and build all their own firearms..

Hand built submachine guns cannot be seized in New York State coz we hide `em in Vermont where`s it`s legal.

Hand guns are 14th century technology. You can’t ban handguns unless you make the world over as 13th Century. And who wants that?

11th Century Norman invasion of England, Norse invasion of England
12th Century: Third Crusade
13th Century: Fourth Crusade-Sack of Constantinople.

Soviets made PPSh-41s by cutting Mosin Nagant rifle barrels in half, to get two PPSh barrels. Mosin stocks were used for some early PPSh stocks.

Mosin Nagant tomato stakes are still pretty cheap, and the chrome barrel means that even if they are pretty stinky looking on the outside.

I'd be willing to bet it's more difficult to make primers and gun powder from scratch than the firearm it's self.

PPSh-41s are some heavy beasties.
Ii cant imagine how heavy with a 72 round drum.

Gunpowder is not too bad, if you are willing to accept black powder.

Primers... can be made from strike anywhere matches or cap gun caps... They mostly work.

Even the most restrictive countries usually allow shotguns, and shotgun ammo can be made into other types.

I pray that we never get that desperate. Billions of rounds to go through in this country first.

PPS 43’s are still pretty cheap, but I hear that production run is about to end.

Try a Thompson with a 50 round drum...

I had a class in swimming once, and part of the class was carrying a M-1 Garand as you were swimming. Holding it out of the water with one hand as you swam was a very manly task.

Those are not light bullets LOL.

BTW the PPSh 41 weights in at 10.5 lbs unloaded.
