My guns so far as a Romanian

Hi guys, I am new to the sub, never knew we had an European gun sub tbh, these are my rifles as of now.

A benelli lupo in 30.06 with a Vortex venom 3-15x44 and vortex pro rings, a IJ 54 (baikal) 12 ga and a gamo maxima 5.5mm air rifle, next rifle I will buy will be in .223, because i am tired of hunting foxes with the 30.06, even tho I love the Lupo, it shoots sub moa with Sako 150gr ammo.

But i am not decided if i should get a Savage msr recon 2.0 (limited to 2 rounds magazine in Romania because it's a semiauto) or I should just get a tikka t3x, advice would be welcomed.

If you have any questions about our very strict gun laws I will try and answear all of them.

Have a great start of the week guys!

Parts and accessories for my HK SP5k - where from ?!??!

https://preview.redd.it/hq8hc97v61kh1.png?width=1512&format=png&auto=webp&s=0c60dc7a9ccf3fbfc26c0aceba8af9336450c2e6

I have bought a used SP5K and I need some accessories for it! :D

I'm from Poland, so any shop that ships to the EU would be good. Where are the parts, goddammit? The USA has that beautiful "hkparts" page... Where is the EU equivalent for HK?!

Okay, frustration aside... I would like to get a cheap M-LOK handguard, a magazine paddle insert, a Picatinny back plate for a stock, an extended cocking handle, and a low T1 optic mount. Where can I get them in the EU?

14k rounds with the prodigy

Today I hit the 14k rounds mark with my Prodigy and had to retorque the optic screws (one was a bit loose even if the dot was rock solid)… it wasn’t a big deal after more than 7k rounds with it.

The first 4 years of collecting guns in Europe.

Theme of the collection is: Cool shit I wanted to have.

Reporting crime while CCW

Just a note to all those from non-CCW countries who wonder about police interactions while armed.

Today I witnessed a developing crime (Prague, CZ) and reported it to the emergency line, gradually reporting on where the perpetrator was moving towards. I informed the dispatcher that I am armed.

In the following 3 hours of interaction with 6 different police officers, no questions were asked about my firearm (there was no direct interaction between myself and perp, so it was not relevant to the case, but they had the information I am armed nevertheless).

Armed society is a polite society.

So now after dinner I am off to the station to make the official statement.

Hard choice, need help

Hi all,

I encountered a dilemma. I actually own a brand new SIG 751 SAPR LB (18" - CAL 308WIN), unused and never fired. I collected it last week, freshly imported from Switzerland.

I'm being offered a trade for an HK G28Z (without SB optics) + 700 euros on top of it. It's used but in like-new condition.

Would you trade it? If yes or no, tell me why.

Thanks and have a nice day.

I'm back!

Seems like my account got unbanned. I haven't gotten any messages about it though. Neither do I really know why I was banned in the first place. Didn't even know the account was back until the guys told me... no message about it, though I did check last week and it was still banned then.

I was really close to the 700 day streak achievement too. :(

Anyways, I hope you all behaved while I was gone and that Swissbloke was a good mod!

Glock accessories delivery

Hello everyone, does anyone have experience with ordering weapons, spare parts, and tuning/customization for them from other countries? I have a Glock 19X and I live in Moldova, but unfortunately, pistol customization isn't common here at all. I've searched a lot online for information on where I can order what I need from other countries, while making sure everything is legal and there are no issues with customs. Please, could anyone with experience in this matter advise me on how I can order these items and through whom I can bring accessories and firearm tuning/customization parts to Moldova from abroad?

P.S. I've tried reaching out to local gun shops with my problem, but absolutely no one deals with this.

Please,help me :(

Advice on my first ar15

I'm new to guns and was looking to buy my first AR-15. I plan on keeping it for a while, so I wanted something of quality at an affordable price.

There are probably plenty of posts like this one, but I was hoping you could give me some more specific advice, as I haven't seen anyone making comparisons online. I should point out that in my country I am limited to semi-automatic fire and the use of the .223 Rem instead of the 5.56 NATO.

At the moment I have only found ARs with a 16" barrel, which I think is enough for precise shooting at 200 meters. Could it be good for longer ranges too? Should I wait and get an 18" barrel?

At the moment, I'm undecided between these 4, all of them are priced at around 1000€. In your opinion, considering material quality, reliability and lifespan, which one do you think is better?

A used Ruger 556 MPR 16" in good conditions.

A new Ruger Harrier MSR 16.1" A1.

A used Smith & Wesson MP15 Sport III (Not sure on the specific model) 16" with 556 barrel. It has shot only 700 bullets.

A new Sabatti S.A.R. (Seems like the worst option, but I might find it with the 18" barrel).
