Here's a challenge Brandon: Design your own Luty. Using parts available from a hardware store, design an imporved version. Maybe fires from a closed bolt, give it a stock, give it sights. I think we'd all like to see your take on a more modern and more effective Luty

[@rdtradecraft]

One of the first things a friend of mine in Arizona did when he heard about the Luty, was, well, build one(kinda worked). The very next thing he did was start modifying said design, the trigger being the first thing he fixed, then he rifled the barrel(actually the last Luty he built had a barrel he drilled from solid stock on a lathe, so kind of cheating), which required better springs, heavier bolt, and a whole bunch of other things, and designed a better Mag Catch/release system. In the end, he built four guns, the last one of which worked surprisingly well, abandoned the project, and built a semi-auto pistol of his own design, which worked great. He said he applied all the lessons he learned from improving the Luty and decided to enroll in gunsmith school. Great video. Later Edits: My friend saw this comment. He asked that I add the following: his first mod was to create a disconnector to make the gun semi-auto for legal reasons, so technically, he never made a "genuine Luty." While the 2nd Amendment allows him to build any gun he can legally own and Arizona(most firearm-friendly state in the Union) has no other restrictions, it is still illegal to build a machine gun in the US. Hey Brandon, how about doing builds on all the stuff in Professor Parabellum's Practical Scrap Metal Arms series, being as you're one of the few who can do it legally?

[@ommsterlitz1805]

Many just simply don't understand that the Ludy project is obviously a fail project if you can't get 9mm ammo for it that are banned for citizens in your country, unless someone have a simple recipe for smokeless powder and easy way to get 9mm cases and primers that are all banned it's just a useless thing to make that can put you to jail for no reason.

@@Beer-can_full_of_toes I think you don't understand that in Europe most countries have banned all guns and obviously ammo if you are not police or registered hunters that counts in a few hundreds in an entire country so your first step is to make ammo before even consider making any guns

[@Big-Government-Is-The-Problem]

@@Beer-can_full_of_toes well in most countries you cant find any ammo easily, like China for example. thankfully anti gunners are retarded and dont ban ammo in the USA. if they did 99.5% of lawful gun owners would never shoot their guns again once their supply runs out. ammo is very hard to make from scratch if all of the components are also banned. im as pro gun as it gets but its naïve to think that if a hypothetical Nazi style country banned guns and bullets that the resistance could easily form a group with dozens of homemade guns and plenty of ammo. it would be a huge uphill battle and they'd need to raid the places with real guns like police stations. gun and ammo control is and will always be an effective way to oppress people, even in 2022 where someone with a $300 3D printer can pump out liberator pistols with relative ease. i guess guns with a spring to propell the bullet could be an option but idk how high of a velocity one could achieve like that. compressed air is also another option, but its not super easy to work with. if bullets are banned though air guns would likely be the best option though, because you cant ban balls of metal. they could ban compressed airtanks though unless you have a license to own one, and that would probably be full size tanks at mechanics shops, not airgun/paintball gun size tanks. im sure those would be banned.

[@HandchoiceEnterprise]

UK citizen here... agree 100% Now, only criminals can acquire firearms that aren't double barrel toobs. Grew up on a farm with a cheap Bikal double barrel. Was so sad when we moved off the farm and into town. Not only was I saying goodbye to the childhood home, but we had to give up the shotgun as well. Tried to find it a new owner, but honestly; it was such a cheap thing (decent engravings though...) that no one wanted it, and it ended up scrapped. That thing put food on my plate most months when I was home. I also slept easier in the harder to police; rural English countryside where response times are very poor. Just knowing this was in the house. Side tangent; a local farmer once called the police that there was an intruder in his home. The police said they could be there in an hour. The farmer called back 5 min later, saying he had shot the intruder, and their services were no longer required.... 15min later, the police arrived in force, only to find the burglar alive and arrested him. They angrily confronted the farmer about why he had lied to the police. The farmer calmly asked why they had said it would take an hour to reach his farm if they could get there in 15 minutes... Don't know if this is just a rural legend. But it certainly fits what most of the locals will tell you, considering how criminal gangs often fund it easier to steal from rural targets in the UK. Often making off with large pieces of farming equipment. Wish our political masters would treat us like adults and allow us the right to self-preservation.

As a young teen when the Dunblane shooting happened, the resulting knee jerk reaction from the government killed a potential future career/winning hobby for me. My grandad had a pistol collection and every Sunday we'd go down the range and blat some targets. In his pistol collection he had a Weobley 22 service revolver, .22 Llama, 22 derringers, .38/357 S&W k frame 9", Beretta 92F, Colt Navy 44 Black powder (which he bought deactivated but reactivated it as he was a civil engineer by trade, with a fully loaded workshop with myford lathes, drill presses, reloading gear, and, it was child's play to him to do such a basic re-do). I showed a very promising hand at becoming a successful pistol target shooter. I had a nice 1½“ grouping at 25m with 9mm and 357 magnum/38 special. Not only did he have a couple of nice pistols that we shot on MOD ranges but we'd go rifle target shooting too. He had a beautiful Sauer, semi-floating barrel 270 win mag with a 4-12x56 Swarovski crystal, red/green illuminated mil-dot reticle. We'd shoot this at 500m at the Middlewick range at the Colchester glasshouse barracks. After a couple of weeks I could put 2 rounds in the 10 ring and 1 10/9 ring clip on a standard ten ring A4 target. The Dunblane shooting also destroyed an entire industry here, it sunk businesses into bankruptcy, made thousands of people unemployed and killed a healthy hobby for thousands also. Pistols were melted down after handing them over to the police, some 23,000 estimated and 700,000 rounds of ammunition of various calibres.

I have to mention something here Brendon. Not all of us are born in the US with access to every gun you can Imagine. I think Luty did a great job and for anyone who had the tools they could improvise. It's an honest review but maybe try adding a rifled barrel, some better grips , some ghost ring sights , a good magazine catch and even a better magazine. I think we'll have a quite a sub machine gun.

You should try out the integrally supressed 9mm SMG in the Anarchist Cookbook. When I was 16 (under supervision of the State Police who wanted to easily prove that gun laws were useless, to especially include the AWB that was in effect at the time.) I built one, and it worked out pretty good.

I don't understand this whole "useless law" narrative. Every law gets broken so if the gun laws are useless then following the same logic, all laws are useless.

I gave that book a read. It was actually interesting and I found it pretty ingenious given Luty’s lack of available resources. Then again, I’ve always been a fan of some crude SMGs and stuff like the Borz guns of the 90s, the Armenian K6-92, etc. Personally I found Professor Parabellum’s “Build a Borz” to be an easier build than Luty’s model. But hot trash triggers aside, Luty is a legend

Could you explain a way that the barrel of this gun could have been rifled instead of being smooth bore? Ive never quite been able to grasp how the rifling process works

[@Jst.a.Normal.Bottle.of.Mustard]

@@synshenron798 rifling of a barrel simply put is creating a spiral pattern on the inside of the barrel itself, their are about 5 ways from what I remember but all of them are going to require machines like a lathe to use, the easiest way for an amateur is going to be using a tabletop lathe and using a broach, which is a formed tool that you just press into the hole while it is spinning and creates the pattern for you

There is an "upgrade" called the BSP that uses "British Standard Plumbing" parts instead of as much square tubing. But for shits and grind, even if it makes for a lighter projectile, shooting lead round ball would increase the accuracy quite a bit.

[@oz_jones]

[@daveware4117]

Luty was right. Today, home made firearms are even easier to make due to things like 3d printers and small cnc milling machines. Its way easier to ban ammo. Nitrocellulose is very dangerous and impractical to make at home. Every single citizen of the U.K. could build a Luty gun and it wouldnt matter if they didnt have access to 9mm ammo.

[@HandlingItAll]

"nitrocellulose"... No no no... Black powder.

[@spartanonxy]

Sure but black powder while not the best propellant for a automatic weapon is certainly viable. Who cares if after 500 rounds it will lock up if you only have 400. Then there is the simple fact that it isn't quite as dangerous as you think well if you take precautions and treat nitrocellulose like what it is a explosive. But yeah it isn't honestly as hard as you may think.

To gun hobbyists in Britain, Philip Luty was nothing short of an hero. He stood tall against an oppressive government, despite the odds and the challenges he faced because of it.
