Tour of a Dutch Gun Collection

One of the collectors who offered me access to video some of his guns during my recent trip to Europe said I should do an overview of his whole collection. There is a misconception in both the US and Europe that European governments ban gun ownership. The truth is more complex - different countries have different laws, but all of them allow gun collecting if you are willing and able to get the required permits. This collection, for instance, is every bit the equal of many of the best collections in the US.
Thanks to this anonymous collector for letting me film both his whole collection, and also a number of specific guns!

Not true. We have plenty a Jehovah's Witnesses and most of the "independent" churches you just don't notice because they get swept under the rug as protestants. A Ton of Muslims... well around 5% (as of 2015) compared to a 59.4% of Christians (including 1.9% of Orthodox Christians) and 34.8% of Atheists other religions are only 0.8%

[@rogerwilco2]

You probably have Scientology and a whole bunch of other fringe religions, but you might just not have noticed them.

[@thedamnyankee1]

We should all say thanks to the collector for sharing this with Ian, and thus, us. It looks like quite an effort, and a labor of love i'm sure. Seriously, Thank You for Sharing this.

[@thebotrchap]

He must be one of the very few people left in NL with a collectors license. The former army museum in Delft had a similar collection and then some. It was open on request for research or group lectures. Managed to gain access a few times :-)

[@betaich]

Hi Chap, where did you leave the bloke?

[@thebotrchap]

Joris vV I know, I lived 10 years in NL. I exploited the "Antieke Wapens" category to the max to have a bit more freedom.

[@nelsonnoname001]

Maybe it's the guy who ran the Army Museum, here?

[@tostie3110]

[@knate44]

Ian's new family sitcom: Everybody loves Bergmans

[@littlegrabbiZZ9PZA]

Yeah, I'm drooling. Reminds me of a guy I sold a revolver to. His collector's permit was for "military and governmental small arms of all nations and time periods, including competing models and firearms of similar type, design, or function, and including fully automatic firearms and weapons designed for explosive projectiles". It's the German Collector's Permit holy grail. And yeah, I dropped the price down a hundred for the chance to drool all over his collection for a day. *So* worth it.

[@Caracho86]

I have heard of people my grandfather knew (he was a hunter, just as I am) , that there were times when this was possible. I highly doubt I`ll be ever allowed to buy any of the guns besides those which are allowed on my hunting license.

[@littlegrabbiZZ9PZA]

Caracho86 It's possible, but hard. Our collectors need a theme for their collection, and once that theme is pretty much filled out, they can extend that theme. The guy I sold my wheelgat to started with "WWI Italian infantry rifles" and, through seven extensions, arrived at "if it is gun, you can have it".

[@thegoldencaulk2742]

Dutch AR-_10s_. Ian said he had multiple of them. I didn't bring enough bread and peanut butter for all this jelly.

[@keithrobertsson2164]

The difference between "jam" and "jelly" is: jam has fruit solids in it while jelly only has the juice.

[@keithrobertsson2164]

And what brought on this bit of vulgarity? I was answering Slaughter Round, not Stigstigster.

[@keithrobertsson2164]

How true, How true.

[@BeoZard]

Jelly and Jam are different things. Jelly is made from juice Jam is made from whole fruit. We have Jam in the US, just Jelly is more popular.

[@BeoZard]

Jelly contains no gelatin it is gels through the action of the pectin. Fruits high in pectin, like apples, grapes, and blackberries make great jelly. Jams are better made with fruits that are lower in pectin. If I go to my cupboard right now I can pull out a jar of grape jelly and a jar of strawberry jam.

[@bumblebeebob]

Thank you anonymous Dutch collector for sharing your awesome collection with Ian and ultimately us. It is truly a fantastic collection.

[@YaoiMastah]

Allow me, as a Dutch and gunowner and -enthusiast, to clear up some misunderstandings I noticed in the comments (several of fellow Dutchmen). First off, Dutch gunownership is a long and bureaucratic process that revolves around the idea that we should keep guns away from crazies and crims. If you have patience and the mental capabilities to fill out stacks of forms and sit through several courses, you are indeed deemed fit to own guns. This has nothing to do with an opressive government and all-knowing EU legislation, but rather the idea that we, as gunowners have certain responsibilities towards society. Now, collecting guns like the ones you saw in this video is an entire different animal altogether. To be a guncollector, you need to fill in certain forms. Those forms are only available if you are a member of certain (Royally appointed) guncollecting societies. To become a member of such a society, one needs to be a prospect first. To become a prospect, you need to be introduced by another collector first. To move from prospect to member, you need to write several peer-reviewed publications on the subjects you wish to study in your collection (mind you, a gun collection is not for fun, but for scientific reasons alone). Furthermore, to become a full-fledged collector, you need to prove that you have the financial means to start and maintain such a collection. Therefore, most collectors (and there are quite a few) usually collect books, or ammunition, or antiques (which are free to own, except for the ammunition), or flare guns, or proofmark prints, or band together and open a museum (hello tax-cut).

[@Jaroneko]

Thank you.

[@planescaped]

So be rich and know the right people... Sounds about right.

[@kazkikongokiller6447]

So it's perfectly OK to restrict firearm ownership and make it exclusively available to only the police, military, or the rich and well-connected, but God forbid the average citizen has the money or willpower to hop through all the bureaucratic hurdles set in place by sheeple like you. But it's alright, as long as it's in the name of "muh responsibility to society" amirite?

[@kazkikongokiller6447]

Yeah, you're right - I wouldn't get a gun there. I wouldn't even come close because I don't have the ludicrous amounts of money to "maintain" a collection of overpriced antiques, nor do I know any people in high places who would "permit" me to start owning them. Garbage country, and that is why I moved to the U.S., where I don't need to prove or give any "good reason" for wanting to buy guns.

[@daTizze]

may i suggest to visit the Overloon War Museum? a great museum, i've been there 3 times, on time during the Militracks.

[@SirSaladhead]

I've been there too. They've got cool stuff, but I don't think much in the way of forgotten weapons. But it's been a couple of years, maybe that has changed by now.

[@robinbrugman5971]

Falco van gaans je kan wapens hebben allen je hebt een vergunning nodig

[@chuckvanderbildt]

You would not be able to acquire the permits necessary for this without the complete trust and cooperation of the local police. They will also make unannounced house calls to verify that you are indeed following all the laws and procedures to the letter. But once you have a good working relationship with the local LE, and make sure to stay healthy and on the right side of the law, this is indeed possible (if uncommon) in the Netherlands!

[@AAAF556]

I was cringing in anticipation of Ian tripping on the ma deuce and face planting straight into zee German section.

FN-made commercial Mauser 98 action in .308, FN MAG-profile Barrel, MAG bipod, FAL-based external Magazine, Wooden stock risers, eccentric STANAG 2324-compatible mount. Made around the same time as the PSG1 and WA2000 with similar design intent. Know it by sight, have been modelling on for a few months. Info on these suckers is thin on the ground. Supposedly Belgian Army Recon still use them in some form.

[@MichaelBerthelsen]

humor​ ;-D I speak 5, and can only come up with one Japanese word. 羨ましい, means 'wow, you're lucky, with I have the same luck as you!'. Basically jealousy without the negativity of desiring someone else's stuff, but wishing him well for it, and expressing hope that I'll end up in just as good a situation as him some day... Man, that would be sweet...

[@brianreddeman951]

I'd just tack on an adjective and/or your choice of expletive to the word and be done with it. :)

[@Alan-bw2zg]

Jeremy Alden-Smith I was trying to come up with some, and I agree... English is a lousy language to describe envy.... suffice it to say there's not a lot i wouldn't do to have such a collection ( there's some, but not a lot).

You need half a dozen sten guns because only one in six fire when you pull the trigger. You can get them to fire every time by dropping it but it's rather difficult to aim that way.

Ian, if possible try to visit the Tojusmuseet (Royal Danish Armory Museum) in Copenhagen, DM. It is enormous and features the private gun collection of the Danish Kings.

"if you are willing and able to get the required permits" Same is true in California and New York, you just need five-six figures of bribes for the permitting authorities.

SkyKnifer do you say federal republic of Germany or Germany? America or United States of America? Great Britain or England? Gosh how it's possible to be butthurt by the traditional name. I assume you are also not Dutch and you don't speak it as well... It's all netherlandish right? What a bs

[@thisismebram]

electronicgrinsch I am Dutch, actually. Holland is a province (2 to be correct, Noord and Zuid Holland). And is a small part of the country that is The Netherlands. Though it is true that a large majority of Dutch people live there, there are also a lot of Dutchies that are not from Holland. As you can probably guess by this comment, I am from one of the other provinces and yes, I dislike it when people call my country "Holland". Try telling a Welshman that he's English. It's the same thing, though I bet that his reaction will be a lot less friendly.

[@ThijsVanDalen]

Holland is not thesame as The Netherlands, and what are you rambling about you clearly have no idea lol Holland is only 2 of the 13 provinces all together it's called The Netherlands, we all speak Dutch but in our own language it's called Nederlands, People from the province Friesland speak Frisian which is the closest related language to English.

Me too, it´s not like the common US-Gun Channel. I got bored by all of them, specially by the "make sure the gun is clear". I personally like the story behind some guns. Ian is a very good storyteler, too. And then ther is the Technical Part. I like how he is showing the gun funktions.

[@johns2861]

Why do you think it is "good they banned them in my country" if you "could not care less about guns"? Are you one of those sorry individuals who wants to ban everything you don't care about personally? If everyone thought like that nothing would be legal...

[@Darelumga]

THX, iatsd!

[@johns2861]

He clearly stated it is "good they banned them in my country" which is in conflict with his statement that he "could not care less about guns." Clearly he has feelings and opinions on guns. Both from an engineering and legal point of view. I'm not American.

[@lptomtom]

I wonder if all of this is legal. In France, you'll hear from time to time about old guys with incredible collections that were acquired in less "complicated" times (guns hidden in barns, left behind by Germans or Americans, etc). Sadly, even if they're upstanding citizens, their collections are confiscated and often destroyed...

[@ForgottenWeapons]

Yes, this is legal.

[@D3faulted1]

I don't think that's all that uncommon in Europe. I work with some Polish guys and they said quite a few people in Poland have some hidden stuff, considering how many times their country was wiped off the map and how they were treated i can't really blame them.

[@TheEnricoMicheli]

I live in Italy, but, I was surprised when I did all the paperwork in one, maybe two weeks, to keep a firearm my grandpa couldn't own anymore due to health issues, and just like that I could own and buy others. Seems almost like the stereotype of stictness is exaggerated.

[@MrSkyl1ne]

It's legal here in the Netherlands to own guns, but there's very strict rules, tons of paperwork and all sorts of laws you need to take into account. For example you need to store the guns and ammo in seperate vaults with different locks or access codes. The .50 on the ground has a box of ammo next to it so i assume the ammo is either non functional, the gun has no firing pin or it was just put there for the video. Normally that's not allowed. Also using the guns for selfdefense is not allowed. Even threatening to do so could cost you your license to own guns.

[@egoshOOter14]

Three or four years ago, there was a 91 or 92 year old men that got arrested for his ''gun collection'' here in germany. You know, basic stuff, couple of Maxims, circa 200 MK2 grenades, all sorts of bolt action rifles and semi auto rifles. And the best part is, a god damn Panther tank, sadly without tracks but a Panther non the less. So there are european gun collectors with a big collection.

nice collection mr. anonymous, thanks for the view.

[@JohannesHuisman]

Cool stuff Ian! Hope you liked the Netherlands.

[@milybanily]

With new European Comunity Gun related laws most of the collection will go to foundry.

[@MichaelBerthelsen]

Paco Fortuny Not really.

[@Stargazer88]

I am willing to wager that a lot of private collections are going to be grandfathered in to some law changes over the next 5-10 years. When the owners die, they will either be donated to museums or destroyed (possibly deactivated). I am not familiar with Dutch laws, but where I live it is quite clear that the government has been interested in getting the number of collectors down for a number of years. Especially collectors of military arms.

He keeps it for entertaining clients in Mexico, on bird hunts and so forth. It was the firs time that I had seen 200 guns in a big safe. He is a billionaire and does BBQ with George senior on the weekends. You know who I mean well, he was a President.
