WW2 clones

Cool! Sign me up for PaK 75 anti-tank gun chambered in 7.62x39 please! I cant wait to see the range nazi's face when I pull up, and park that thing on the firing line! When do you expect to get them in?

They are similar, but far from the same. You still need the drawings. And again, no market for such a large venture.

Chinese first got M14 and M16 in Vietnam and copied them by measuring the parts to make drawings themselves, currently known as M305 and CQ. Chinese also got a lot of M1 and PPS during Korea war and at least still have some stock in their movie factories. (most of them in military warehouses were melted into steel blocks during early 1960's). Chinese type-81 pistol (developed successfully but never got chance to enter service) was the closest clone of Mauser C96. So the only problem is how big the market would make them set up a new production line.
 
I would love to show up at a service rife match with a semi BAR.

Now that would be Fking awsome.

Dream on...Sigh....

Sterling like (like) pistol in .45 acp, but not enough of a Sterling for it to be classified as one, or a variant of something else. Tall order even for that i would imagine. I really liked my C1 Smg.

Of course, with the deeply entrenched clowns :rolleyes: we have in Ottawa who are not 'going away' any time soon, :jerkit: threads like this are a moot point.
 
How about an M6 Scout? those things are like gold on the EE wonder if a reasonable facsimile could be an option??

I know its not a milsurp clone.... sorry to redirect this thread
 
Just the upper receiver of the Bren takes something like 256 seperate machining operations.

It's a fine arm.

But there's no way one can be cheaply manufactured to make the north american market happy.....especially if you have to start from scratch and build everything.

WWII clones are, truly, a niche market.

If you build them cheap, they won't be historically accurate, and you won't get top dollar for them.

If they're historically accurate, they won't be cheap....and you'll have a very limited market.

If you build them cheap and not historically accurate, people will buy them, then complain because they're not historically accurate...you won't make people happy, and they'll complain...see where I'm going?

Build more SKS's.

Semi BAR, semi sten, semi 1919 in 7.62x39. I liked the idea of the m1 carbine varient, maybe in 45 or 9mm, more ammo availability, could use 1911 mags like the marlin camp carbine or others(glock?) like the ruger police carbine. Also, what happend to that semi BAR that was being made in germany? There was a thread about that a couple months ago IIRC.
