Seen this actual homemade 22 rifle online, claimed it was at a garage sale, I am at a loss for words to describe it.

A good set of elk horn stags would be just the ticket to dress that baby up.

My Mosin M38 carbine:

 

[4T5GUY]

My $119.00 10-5, that I did 25+ years ago.

I learned a lot and had fun, The only thing I got help with was the plating. It's still very accurate, but "a bit dated".

No, I did not have a mullet.

One of my favorites is nothing more than a dress up kit for the Ruger 10-22

On Halloween put on a pin stripe suite and your best hat and take it to the streets with you

There are many that I built over the years

Some time ago a SxS had it's barrels crushed during a robbery attempt. I bought it cheap and turned it into a nice little coach gun

Using a aftermarket target stock, bolt and trigger group for a Ruger 10-22 This receiver was machined from a billet of aluminium. It has an equipment rail machined into the receiver top. The barrel was turned from a match 22 blank. Unlike a Ruger, I threaded the barrel into the receiver for better accuracy.

Then thanks to inspiration from Bad_Man_one I have my 1014 and 1013 Smith and Wessons

And my Smith and Wesson CS10s

However those were not my first pistols converted to the 10MM Auto cartridge. I must have done this Mauser M2 10 years ago by now

There are more, but I am too tired to try and find the rest of the pictures. You know, Model 940s opened up for 38Super or CZ style pistols changed over to 9x23 Winchester or a Marlin Camp 356 now chambered for the Smith and Wesson 356TSW, etc, etc, etc.

A word of caution to the owner of the coach gun posted above. If those barrels are under 18 " and this gun will take readily available shotgun shells(which it likely will) it is IMO an unregistered sawed off shotgun per BATF regulations.

Throwing a rock might be safer?

I been buying up surplus military guns that bubba butchered and Turing then back to orginal condition. I have two converted rifles one German 98k and a Chilean 7mm Mauser. Both guns cost under $140 to build. Now there hunting rifles. I changed the barrel in the 98k at the cost of $37. She looks like a sniper 98k.

Jim,
The barrels of the Coach Gun are 11" and it is chambered for 12 Gauge 3" shells

There is no such thing as a "sawed off shotgun per BATF regulations".

This is a 100% legal, Title II firearm under the National Firearms Act of 1929 as amended in 1934.

Federal Law refers to this firearm as a Short Barreled Shotgun.

Ned,
I think I am seeing the start of a pattern here

Since its overall length appears to be greater than 26", I suspect it falls in the same category as the Shockwave. But I'd hate to try and explain that at the side of the road . . .

Nice work Nedroe

In my state ANY SHOTGUN BARREL UNDER 19 INCHES is illegal.

I think that is my understanding of the current law.

It is a sawed off shotgun unless it came from the factory with that barrel length: And then to be legal it would have to be registered as a Short Barreled Shotgun. You sawed the barrels to that length and it will shoot currently available ammunition. Anyway that's my understanding and you might want to check further with the BATF.
Jim

Below is taken directly from the NFA:

Under the National Firearms Act (NFA), it is illegal for a private citizen to possess a sawed-off modern smokeless powder shotgun (a shotgun with a barrel length shorter than 18 inches (46 cm) or an overall length shorter than 26 inches (66 cm)) (under U.S.C.

If the above has been rescinded or eliminated i am unaware of it.

My apologies if my post led you to believe that I was referring to the laws of the State or City that you reside in. I have no personal knowledge of what goes on in your municipality

My comments were exclusively directed at the Federal Laws that have been enacted since 1929.

Back on topic:

How about a .455 ELEY converted to .45 Colt and cut down to 3.5". The lanyard ring was removed and the hole plugged

and here is a 5906 that has a 5" slide, night sights, mag well, and combat mag release added:

Jim,
You appear to be unaware of a great many things

Below is taken directly from the NFA:

No it was taken directly from WIKIPEDIA and copied onto numerous other boards.

WIKIPEDIA (a publicly maintained reference) is not a reliable source to quote for what is and is not legal. There is really no need for something reported in WIKIPEDIA to be rescinded

There is no FEDERAL Law that prevents citizens of the United States that do not fall into the Prohibited Persons category from LEGALLY Owning shotguns with barrels under 18" or rifles with barrels under 16" or Sub Machine Guns or Bazookas or Tanks or practically any other "ARM" that we may desire

BTW, where is your contribution to this BUBBA thread? Naturally I mean outside of this thread drift
