I have the luck of living in Mexico in an area where there's a big presence of firearms, I am one of the few people in my town who knows how to make guns, and even though my .22lr pistol is very simple, it sure does show my friends and family members the amazing world of firearms, they don't see it as something bad, also there's no shortage of places to get ammo without a liscense, but it's because many people can't afford a liscense and want or have to go to hunt their own food, I wish I can one day start a firearms company to sell cheap rifles and shotguns for the farmers and all the people who live in the country-side.

[@STEINBVG]

Thank you. I feel the same way about hand held weapons and guns in particular. I love the art of mechanics and do not find weapons to be evil. Humans could be evil. I speculate that the talented artisans gunsmiths can not be evil- they simply do not have time for it, they are busy inventing and creating. I love them. I find it very rewarding to work with metal. I don,t care about shooting or riding my motorcycles. I marvel at the engineering complexity or simplicity…I marvel at the transcendental BEAUTY. I have a tremendous joy of being part of it. PS. I wish you luck in creating your company. Would like to see your work. Any link?

[@derealized797]

I've always thought they were interesting, just like someone would a car or something. The engineering that goes into them, the machine work, the mix of wood and metal and the skills involved in using them. It's also interesting to see how resourceful people can be, in whatever situation it may be, like prisoners of war making an escape, or people in poorer countries building a wind turbine out of garbage. So of course these are interesting as hell to me. But, living in the US, this sort of thing can be very misunderstood or make people nervous. They can be as uptight as they are nosy, and the laws are strict, and as cool as this is i never got to experiment with this. I would love to though. Maybe some day I'll move or work it out, at least, hopefully laws don't get more ridiculous than they already are. Because my understanding is that if you can buy it you can build it. But even the receiver kits and parts are expensive for me. It all makes it more interesting, I've had to improvise throughout my life, this would be the perfect challenge as i get older.

[@STEINBVG]

@@derealized797 my sentiments exactly. That,s why I work with easily accessible materials and tools( although I know lathe and mill) Apocalyptic steam punk style I find quite interesting: the restrictions of tooling and materials make a task or goal much more sweet. Engineering simplicity and economy are also restrictions of the game- make it even more challenging. But when you get there - it,s a Eureka moment!!! Ecstatic and fulfilling. Cheers.

@@STEINBVG i mean, where is it. Pakistan i think. These people who go into small metal sheds in the middle of nowhere, right. They make these damn near perfect copies of whatever firearms will pay off, and they do it entirely by hand, piece by piece. They don't get a lot of money either, it's more out of necessity, if you consider how long this must take. They even test them when they're finished, at their own risk. This reminds me of the extent that people go to make counterfeit everything in china. Amazing what people can pull off.

[@aniquinstark4347]

That toggle delayed Thompson is remarkable. I don't think I've seen anyone else use that mechanism. It's probably less reliable than regular blowback but it's definitely more cool from an engineering point of view.

[@STEINBVG]

Look at his channel, he shows it in details. I see no reason for it not to be reliable. You can,t use simple blowback on 45 caliber. Or the bolt should very big for closed bolt system. For open bolt it,s a bit smaller. But still heavy. He uses a clever version of toggle delay which is adjustable from the zero/ full lock at 180 degree knee joint to slightly less- with but a simple set screw. Very nice .

[@Swindle1984]

@@STEINBVG The Thompson, MAC-10, HK UMP, M50 Reising, M3 grease gun, Star Model Z-45, and Uzi are all direct blowback guns available in .45 ACP. Why on earth would you think you can't use blowback on .45?

[@STEINBVG]

@@Swindle1984 i am not saying you can not. I believe most of not all guns you refer to are machine guns or SMG, are heavy and /or big in size and can afford heavier bolts. Besides open bolt design reduces need for very heavy bolt due to momentum, but it still big. However in closed bolt operating hand guns or light rifles , a locking or delaying mechanism of some sort is better to be there for anything above 9 mm Parabellum. At least that what I have learned from a plethora of sources. I don,t know this guys gun,s weight, but some parts are plastic, his bolt and receiver seem light - he wisely went with toggle delay for 45. He seems to know what he is doing. Imho

[@Swindle1984]

@@STEINBVG The HK UMP is also closed bolt. .45 ACP is a lower pressure round than 9mm. His gun is the size and weight of an SMG. Your statement that you can't do blowback with .45 ACP was simply nonsensical. There is no need to justify his choice of a toggle action for his gun. It's cool and it works.

You saw a lot of this kind of thing in the Yugo Civil War back in the 90's, when the country broke into a half-dozen pieces. Machine shops would make "standard" designs and produce 50 or 100 subguns of a unique design often combining elements of Stens, MP-40's and ppsh.

I hand picked these from the Web. Very impressive for me. I have learned a lot from them too.

[@dark2023-1lovesoni]

For anyone curious about these, or just gun design & gunsmithing in general. Please take a mental note that most of these designs are open bolt systems (meaning the bolt stays to the rear until the trigger is pulled). The main reason for this is because of the inherent simplicity and reliability that open-bolt systems provide (open-bolt designs also allow very easy and simple full-auto too). This is also how most WW2 era SMGs worked. Traditional closed bolt guns (like semi-auto pistols and most semi-auto rifles) need to chamber each cartridge from the mag, then keep it chambered until another mechanism hits the firing pin (hammer/striker usually), then they fire, eject the casing, rechamber the next round, and wait for the next trigger pull. Open-bolt systems don't need a complex hammer or striker mechanism, they technically don't even need a proper firing pin (just a small sharpish bump on the front of the bolt works, often called a "fixed firing pin"). In these systems the bolt just chambers a round from the mag and immediately fires it. Which results in ejection and blows the bolt backwards. At which point it will be caught by a small lip/edge (aka: the sear) connected to the trigger and held back until the next trigger pull. Alternatively if the bolt isn't caught by the sear it will just continue firing until the mag is empty or the gun malfunctions. Think of it like this, the trigger MAKES a closed-bolt gun fire, while on open-bolt guns, the trigger just prevents it from firing until pulled. Because there are fewer parts in open-bolt guns, there's also less to go wrong. This makes the design and their construction much easier. There is less to malfunction or break, and also they require less precision to build. Technically open-bolt bolt guns need extra parts to be semi-auto (without a disconnect mechanism, between the trigger and sear, the gun will fire full-auto until the trigger is released). While closed-bolt guns need extra bits to fire full-auto. First, a part to repeatedly drop the hammer/striker once the bolt is closed, and they generally also need a mechanism to prevent dropping the hammer/striker UNTIL the bolt is fully closed (though these functions can technically be combined into 1 complex part, usually called an auto-sear). The big downside to open-bolt guns is their accuracy and lower safety. Because that heavy bolt needs to move before the gun shoots it can throw off precision shots & because the gun WANTS to fire immediately it can accidentally fire significantly more easily. Basically if you drop an open-bolt bolt gun it can fire, even uncocked (if the bolt bounces open enough to pickup a cartridge, or if it's already cocked a drop can knock the bolt off of the sear). If you don't pull the bolt back far enough to catch the sear while cocking it, then it will also load and fire a round. Closed bolt guns are more common as modern military and civilian rifles/pistols because of their higher safety and accuracy. But that comes at the cost of being more complex and expensive to design and build.

[@nilsmadej9091]

These are absolutely stunning! What great pieces of art, I envy you. I'm still at school, I'm making gun replicas out of wood and am trying to replicate all the different mechanisms, adapt them for toys and try to create unique models based on antique examples of wierd mechanisms such as yours. But they banned me from making them and some classmates even stole and broke some of my projects. I hope one day I can express myself in this artform just as you do. There is too much stigma around it.

[@STEINBVG]

This video credits go primarily to others, but I have my share of builds on my channel . You can do this art and stay legit. Learn from people on KZbin- that,s how I did. Good luck.

[@PaddyFromPaddistan]

I completely agree about the stigma, if you think about it most repeater firearms like auto or semi auto, work on similar principles to combustion engines. They are all designed to achieve the same goal but the mechanisms vary and it's hard not to appreciate the creativity of the designs that people have developed over the course of history. Not to mention there are some amazing single shot firearms from over a hundred years ago, with some absolutely beautiful mechanisms, I saw one on a video that had a sort of spiral breech plug, very similar to the Ferguson rifle but operated above rather than below the action. 😍

[@STEINBVG]

Great points.

[@samcruickshanks6856]

Some of these look like finished items of an acceptable quality and are quite impressive, I like seeing some parts that are nicely machined and also i like the forthought and effort put into the finish of the gun as a whole, it's cool enough for me to potentially take a look at getting the skills and licensing requirements to do this myself legally, I'd love to be able to make a finely crafted firearm from scratch, all the wood stock and scroll work too. It would be fantastic.

I'm thinking about something in a 45/70 as being much like a big 22 ??? Say 15 round detachable mags and a serious muzzle brake ??? A weld up foreward mag Mac 10 ??? Any ideas ???

I love the Toggle Thomason. Where can I contact the designer?

[@STEINBVG]

I listed in the description his site. He has all the contacts there. Domsworkshop , something like that

[@vicdeak1868]

Nice, very clever!, I was in the army and used a lot of different types of fire arms but these are clever and no doubt effective but how on earth do you learn these skills?, and trust me it is a skill!!.

[@STEINBVG]

I have learned by reading and watching such videos. Bikes and guns. There has to be some mechanical basis or talent . And/ or one can be hands-on trained. With various success. All these guys are naturally talented. The last guy is an MIT student. That means something.

[@Fischer_Topic]

As an American, this is truly amazing, ive seen "Home-made guns" before that look, work, and fire like shit, but this is someone who took the time to design and create something, you can tell he loves his craft.

[@STEINBVG]

Thanks. There were and are mechanical prodigies and geniuses out there. J M BROWNING comes to my mind. They think in 3d models.

I liked the .22lr open bolt ruger like pistol. But unfortunately I don't understand the mechanism. Please can you make a non firing one.

[@STEINBVG]

These guns were made by others. Read the description

might be. I never heard a10

I wish i could relay your thanks to the masters. But you can go to their channels and tell him that

[@FokkerBoombass]

Ah yes, the perfect backstop - a bucket of rags. That toggle action thompson tho. Lugson? Thomgler?

[@STEINBVG]

The stop works. It seems. I think I saw 9 mm used on it.

[@theotherohlourdespadua1131]

Or the Pedersen rifle (John Pedersen created a rifle for a US Army competition against John Garand's rifle. Pedersen used a toggle lock for his rifle)...

These are actually super nice quality for home made guns. Nice! Love it. Also, this is why gun bans won't work lol

[@leonardsolis9876]

The first one was awesome, I plan to make one like that, but I want a nine millimeter. That design , I believe, gives you more room for the trigger and moving parts, and somehow better ease of loading and expelling the bullets. You know, the one with the magazine in front of the trigger.

I really wish I knew how to make guns, it seems so cool. Does anyone have tips on how to start doing it?

[@STEINBVG]

search and watch youtube, web. there's a lot of information. See my videos, read the descriptions and comments. You may get a lot. And practice, just get materials and do it. Nobody will baby step you, but if you have some mechanical skills and good hands- you will learn. I have.

WHERE AND HOW CAN I BUY THE MINI TOY STENS

[@STEINBVG]

EVIKE.COM SELLS IT

[@Isiah089]

Yo you sell those the select fire guns in the middle of the video?

[@STEINBVG]

The video description clearly spells out that those are made by others, mostly abroad. I do play with guns, but do not make or sell weapons, let alone automatic
