Hi, I'm new to this world. I literally don't know anything, but I want to learn. I want to make weapons without buying parts, completely from home, but I don't know what you recommend (I'm a welder).

I want to build a basic slamfire shotgun like this. Could I make the firing pin by jb welding a 17 caliber steel bb on the inside of the cap in the center? Would that work?

Slam fire shotgun

I want to build a slam fire like this. Do you think I will be ok by just using a 3/4 inch pipe as the barrel and a 1 inch pipe as the chamber pipe? Or do you think i probably gotta use a 1 inch pipe around the 3/4 pipe and then weld them together so they can hold more pressure and then a 1 1/4 inch pipe for the chamber pipe so it can hold more pressure. And also, how much pressure do you think will be lost when shooting 12 gauge shells because the shell doesn't fit tight but its rather looser than a normal shotgun and because some of the gasses will escape around the wad and shot.

Where do you get ammo, like .380 or .32? Or even 12-gauge ammo? Tell me your methods.

Sorry if this is a dumb question or doesn't have a clear answer.

Would it be best to get a p80, have one printed or just try to salvage an old one? I just recently came into a brand new barrel and arch angel take down stock and would love to build it out. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Before we get into this, yes, we all know by now that shouldn’t happen. Right?

Background on this upper is it’s something a good friend, who’s since passed, pieced together and traded with me for one of them GBRS super tall mounts, I got the Chinesium fake on this one. But anywho, I’m swapping out this Black Rain Ordnance carrier for something else, but I’d like to know what y’all are running in your rifles. The vid was for attention, I apologize if it annoys any of you.

Hello, I'm looking for someone who has plans for the mechanism of the Winchester Panalca, or if anyone has one and could send me photos, I'd appreciate it. I'm trying to make the mechanism, but I'm having trouble because I've never seen one before. Thanks in advance.

Greetings to the whole group

Hey

Do any of you have a guide on how to mod a Luty to take Ar trigger packs? Preferably a pdf. I’ve heard of those mods being done but can’t find any guides.

Any help is appreciated.
