Is there a Norwegian Jow Forumsommunity? I'm an American who's mainly Norwegian (I know queue the le 56% memes) who is curious about the gun life back in the homeland
Is there a Norwegian Jow Forumsommunity...
all semi-autos banned, 99.999% of gun owners are boomer fucks who are ok with 3 round limits on manual action rifles
I'm an American of 80% Norwegian heritage and I'm glad my ancestors left that hole long before breivik's chimpout and the resulting clamp down on guns that came after.
There are a few ar/twogun communities down south, but you have to be an active member of a shooting club for two years i think. but as said, the vast majority of gun owners are fudds
Most armed european country per capita
almost
You were likely born here, raised here, and reside here. America is your homeland.
That isn’t to say don’t be proud of your heritage, but don’t abandon your country out of some false sense of nostalgia.
>back in the homeland
Fucking yanks
I'm a Norwegian. There's at least four of us on Jow Forums.
I've got pistols, (antique) revolvers, bolt rifles, shotguns. May probably get a semi rifle if I want one but my next purchase should be a .22 pistol, I already have some 9mms.
I shoot at the family farm area by myself but I am in a club. Thinking of joining a second and shoot a bit so I'll show up as 'active' next time I want to buy something.
Collection is divided between working and registered guns, projects, antiques, relics, and deactivated ones.

It's not your homeland. Fuck off.
Heh. What clampdown?
Estimate of unregistered firearms per 100 people is WILDLY wrong. For instance, until the 1990s you could go into any shop and get a shotgun and all you needed to show was proof of being 18. A vast percentage of the shotguns bought before they started registered them are probably not shown here. Also there's a lot of Mausers and Krags that never were registered after the war.
Don't forget the hundreds of grandpappy's STEN-guns
I've got one of them. Deactivated, unfortunately. But there's probably more of them.
Here is a fun fact. After WW2 the Americans established a fifth column organization. Typically around well-to-do former officers and others in the upper crust. These had storages of weapons at home; enough to arm a whole resistance unit. This network is of course gone now but not all the weapons were recovered afterwards when the deep cover guys died of natural causes. It's not as if they could advertise 'we seem to be missing ten crates of Garands and M1911s and Thompsons'.

Leave my country, fuckhead.
Would using a deactivated one as a model and reverse-engeineering it be at all feasable? Or even "reactivating" it?
>I know queue the le 56% memes
¿Que? You mean cue, dipshit.
There's deacs and deacs. The early ones could be reactivated with little work, which authorities soon realized. So they started to chop and drill and then weld it back together. Mine isn't half bad as a display case but nothing of importance works or can even be dismantled any more. The barrel has been cut into and the key outer tube too. If I tried really hard I could reuse some components but if my welding and machining skills were that good I might as well build the whole thing from scratch.
Really?
I actually took a pic of it recently.
Sten kits are afaik still available on the open kits. They come without the outer tube which is essential for reassembly or with a tube cut to shreds. Tubes with readymade markings for cutting and drilling were also openly sold, in soft metal for deact use and weapon grade metal if desired. I don't know if those are still openly for sale.
There was no clampdown.
Damn user, is that a threaded barrel i see?
Wrong. A negro can be an American, a chinamen can be an American, an aboriginee can be an American. You owe no loyalty to any flag you were born under. That is idol worship. You owe your loyalty to the blood flowing through your veins
Could be? The barrel's been cut into, spiked with a metal rod and welded so it doesn't matter. Whoever killed that gun did not take half measures. I've had it lying around for a decade or so.
