The only parts required to make this gun are a hacksaw, tape, and a gun.

It's a little more involved with that, first you have to get a functional gun, and then you have to make everything about it worse, and it's not as easy as it sounds.

…..I think I’m up to the task. I’ve made lots of stuff worse over the course of my life. I mean [gestures broadly at my entire 30’s].

I love Brazilian gunsmiths almost as much as Filipino gunsmiths. They’re creative and their designs are weird but cool. Not as cool as Khyber Pass but still pretty cool

This was my only Brazilian gun I ever owned and it was by far my favorite, but very heavy

The gun was very heavy tho so it wasn't as bad as youd think

Yea like a normal break action sometimes they are underneath .. when the lever is pivoted out the way it allows your break and then usually a spring loaded piece of thin sheet steel shaped like the bottom half of the chamber cause the ejection pushing up the spentshell

Shell ejection?

u/ProfessorCold5788 3d ago

Its a break barrel, the shells eject when you open it

Yea thats what i thought that lever would do in the middle..nice

u/ProfessorCold5788 3d ago

Ahh no The lever in the middle is your barrel lock , you push it and the barrel opens

Yea the inside has a lever that locks the breech and when you open it ejects with a piece of steel slotted for your barrel i have a 410 double pistol I started to make one that resembled the Diablo black powder pistol
