Rohm RG-88 US sales

So I recently learned about the SVN-88 which is a conversion of the Rohm RG-88 to fire the 10x22t round which is a rubber ball less lethal round and while the gun itself isn’t. The Rohm rg-88 is available for public sale. Yet all the sights I can find are overseas, does anyone know where I can start looking for one of these stateside, as I’d love to do a conversion.

Hello everyone, I just picked up a browning double auto and I love it. I also just watched the forgotten weapons video on the first commercially available semi auto sporting rifle. And I wondered what other guns have a very low capacity intentionally and why.

Hello everyone I recently bought a nifty little rifle in 9.5x47r and while I can buy a die set and cases from Buffalo arms, the cases are ridiculously expensive. So I’m wondering if I can form my own and if so how to go about it.

Hello everyone, so someone near me is selling a barreled receiver from a lot they bought and I’m wondering would it be possible to rebuild this or are parts so non-existent it would be a wall hanger.

Someone near me is offering a barreled receiver for one of these rifles and I was wondering if it’s worth anything or are the parts unobtainium to the point it would be a wall hanger?

Say hypothetically a company or craftsman was to put out a brand new high end but obtainable reproduction of an obscure cap and ball style gun what would you choose? The marston is mostly just my pick as it’s the most mechanically simple single shot repeater I could think of.

So I wanted a bolt action percussion gun and all the antique ones are prohibitively expensive so I thought I'd design my own. The general gist of it is the bolt goes into the breech plug, then the striker hits the percussion cap and goes boom. To reload you pull the bolt back, pull the breech block backwards then upwards, put the paper cartridge in, then breech block back down, recap, then push the bolt forward and fire again.

This big lady has been coming around our place recently. But just today went into our walkway and waited outside our door. Tried to enter the house when I went for the door. She couldn’t come in due to my CH kitty but she got tube and is chilling. I’m going to go check on her again and try to take her to the shelter. I’m no expert but I think she might be preggers. Wish I could keep her as shes super duper sweet and loving I just worry about my current cat as her neurological condition means she can’t really defend herself if this cat acts up.
