    Technically said one machine pistol and one sub machine gun.The Mauser is actually the "Schnellfeuer"M712 in 7.63.[Distinctive fire selector switch on the LHS in the pic and a detachable box mag]

    Looks like someones nicked collection of German Wehrmacht Deacts.
    Stange,they took the mags out of all the pistols but left it in the MP40?
    If this is live stuff,they are worth more sold to a collctor than any nefarious plan the criminals could have with them.

    They were stolen from a collector.

    Coincidentally, just before they were recovered a gang of burglars that Gardai have been anxious to arrest for a long while were caught red handed and would be facing a long time behind bars if/when convicted.

    Probably the only one in trouble is the lad who owned them, if they were not up to current eu paperweight deact spec's.

    Very good, largely accurate, but he is coming at it from the self defence angle. Thats never going to fly here, to many lefties/liberals in positions of power who think more of the vermin, than they do of the victims of crime.

    A certain Judge who had a petition against him recently for instance.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,987 ✭✭✭✭Grizzly 45


    Said Judge who happens to be an EX GARDA too...:rolleyes:Wonder who or what has him by the short& curlies??
    You noticed he did menttion the Nally case,and the affirmation of the Castle doctrine,more or less ,in Ireland?[Yeah you can have your castle,but no swords,boiling pitch, pikes or other accoutrements to defend it or its dwellers.] Somehow,i doubt that if by some chance you did shoot a couple of armed and crack headed home invaders,threatning to do you in,and letting you watch the fun while they party with your wife and daughter, at the foot of your stairs with all your house lights on,and an open line to 999 so the dispatcher can hear and record everything that anyone could argue excessive force or illegal use of a firearm in that circumstance.

    Not if they bought them before the new spec existed.

    And he had a permit for such from his Super.

    They look alright. How come they can't be reconditioned? Are they condemned purely for age and liability reasons (one shatters while a fella is walking below and sues the company for billions?)


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,987 ✭✭✭✭Grizzly 45


    They are made from fibreglass,which is almost impossible to recycle in an enviromentally friendly way.From what I've read,and understand ,its got somthing to do with wear&tear on the aerodynamics of the blades,and on the mounts as well as stated product liability.
    Costs one million dollars to decomission one of these machines,and to dispose of the heavy toxic oils around the genny and to remove the base for the pylon as well.Thats gonna be fun in some cases in our bogs and seabeds.:rolleyes:
    A huge problem now in CA,where machines that were owned by private companies have long gone bankrupt,and left these bird mincers to collapse and spin off their pylons aplenty.The other option,which is sweeping it under the carpet IMHO,is flogging them off to 3rd world countries,and letting it be their problem.

    IOW we are being sold like the electric car,a nice big glass of Green Kool aid on how we will power this country,and no one is mentioning how we will dispose of these realtively short lived power plants.We could of course ask the Danes how well wind power went for them...:rolleyes:

    The same for Dianne Feinstein. Going around with a security detail armed to the teeth, telling people they should not be allowed defend themselves. Hypocrisy at its very finest. Just like the old catholic church mantra of "Do as i say, not as i do".

    She would need them,were she ever to go take a walk around her constituency of San Fransisco,which is now physically an utter sht hole.With people crapping in the streets,and mainlining heroin in the open.:(:(.Seriously at this stage the entire West coast of the US could do with the big one hitting anytime soon to clean it all up.

    West Virginia offers to take Virginia State counties unhappy with the Democratic governor.

    Outside of the major urban areas to the north of the state Virginia is mostly republican. The state is seeing the same impact as neighbouring states to California as liberals from NY and Maryland leave those states because of crime and taxation engendered by Democrat policies but bring their politics with them.
