Of course, but why wouldn't you try to get an antique cap and ball revolver?
Mostly because they're really rare where I live.
Black powder shooting is based, but if you're so lazy you wont even TRY to get through your country's gun licensing bullshit, you're probably too lazy to survive anyway.
Well I suggest trying really really hard. A six shooter is going to be a lot better than a musket if your life is ever actually in danger.
Here's a great channel for black powder shooting, based in Europe.

>lazy
Not OP but laziness probably has nothing to do with anything. In Yuroshit countries gin licenses usually come with a ton of invasions of privacy like random checkups from the police or whatever. Having a license also means that if S ever HTF then the cops are going to be kicking down your door to collect your weapons.
Myth
>if S ever HTF then the cops are going to be kicking down your door to collect your weapons
If SHTF the cops are coming after you regardless.
If SHTF then the police will be far too busy to come round to collect your guns just because.
here in Italy getting guns is so easy I’m actually amazed not everyone owns one
Even in America only 20 to 30 percent of people own guns
lma cap&ball is the same category as glock just because you can conceal it and some moron managed to kill someone with it years a go
fuck this cunt
>some moron managed to kill someone with it years a go
Imagine being killed with a cap and ball in this day and age lmao. Fucking classy.
get an old p1857 and learn your british army drills
Obligatory

Doesn’t always work. But it worked this time.
This is now a Cap and Ball revolver thread. Here's my 1858 NMA repro from Pietta.
Hope you have some silver balls for demons
Depending on your country actual guns may not be as restrictive as you think you should stop being lazy
>brass frame
Good story, kek. I started carrying a flare gun as a teenager after I got mugged but I never had to use it thankfully.
This is good but there’s a better one out there or a Frenchman who did the same thing; bought a BP revolver and then had to waste two melanated gentlemen who broke into his house one night. That would be perfect for this thread. Anyone got it?
can you only buy muzzleloaders or would you also be able to buy antique single-shot rifles like a rolling block or Mauser 71?
if only muzzleloader, get a chassepot because needle guns are cool
also get out of Europe asap
cannot have actual bullets in it, meaning I'm limited to pouring in black powder and putting a metal ball in there.

>guns strictly regulated
Boo hooh, you need to fill out some forms when you go shooting and pass a retard test. Stop whining.
Unless you're a bong. You're not a bong, are you? Lol.
> you need to
Pass several interviews with the police and get approval from all the neighbors.
And the neighbors really don’t like it when someone owns a weapon near them, so you have to beg and appease them so that they agree.
If you dont succeed then you don't succeed. But if you don't try, you're a retard.
Wew, that's some next level shitholery, sorry bruh. Eastern europe?
Sadly, as for moving to western europe, a similar logic applies as for moving to america. You can get guns, but you're at much higher risk of actually needing them. Except in europe, you cannot even carry your guns.
is this what people really believe
>people
Americans mostly. But this shit is repeated so often that some Euros get demoralized
In some countries it's how it is.
But what countries
>Pass several interviews with the police and get approval from all the neighbors.
You're making shit up to justify being a lazy gay.
t. gun owning Euro.
>
it's one interview with the police, they are so lazy that they often just do it via E-mail and they ask you to attach a picture of your gunsafe for their report
What country is this?
No country asks for a neighbor procedure for private gun ownership, just for private gun ranges, what kinda retard are you?
> No country asks for a neighbor procedure for private gun ownership
Japan
E U R O P E
Also just looked that one up, you're full of shit, they do not ask your neighbours, they review your official records to see if you had any falling outs with them, aka you were sentenced for being a cunt.
A police officer talks to your neighbors about what kind of person you are. And then communicate with your colleagues.
Here is a video of a man who got a weapon in Japan.

I had to ask mine but that's because I live in an appartement building.
And it wasn't my actual neighbors but the people that own the appartements.
I also had to get 3 people to say I'm not a violent spastic including my physician and let a cop see that my vault was actually bolted to the wall.
It sounds like a lot but it's a days work tops.
T-belgian
This freedom doesn't extend to firearms like the Colt Walker I presume? Asking for a friend (will be trapped in a yuropoor shithole for a while. I hate muzzle loading so much it's unreal
Would a 1873 Springfield be okay in most Euro countries or will they throw a hissy fit?
Depends on the country. IIrc France let's you have reproduction cartridge weapons if the model is old enough.
>should i go for it?
I've got lots of and all kinds of guns, muzzleloaders are the most intensely gun experience you can get.
they may not be tactical, they may not be high speed low drag, but damn are they not an absolute pile of gun-joy.
I used to be a huge fan of flintlock guns as a kid. Had a replica pistol that I absolutely fucking loved.
Only buy a gun if you can get ammo for it and if you have somewhere to shoot it
It's a muzzle loader, you can literally just make your own BP and cast balls.
Yeah
Which euro country? Even in UK real firearms aren't that hard to get unless your underage or schizo
Which you probably are.
Buy a shotgun legaly and lose it like everybody else in europe.

Start hunting as well. ^ is Hungarian.
I beat you to it.
In Italy antiques are muzzleloader and everything pre 1890.
As far as I know you just have to tell the police you have it.
>1890
>If the Italian bureaucracy does not do her thing you technically can own a gewerh 1888 chambered in 8mm
Dangerously fun.
>first automatic pistol made in 1894
Aaaaaaagggghhhhh so close yet so far away.
>italy
>potentially dodgy antiques
an interesting restoration guy on youtube is from italy and does most of his paid work in the context of forensics. he's got good material that basically amounts to this.

Definitely. Anything is better than nothing. But, aren't flare launchers a better choice? Single shot, but you can from them.
