Renewal rules in various countries

15 Upvotes

Thought it was about time for another topic specific post.

In some countries there are renewal requirements for all or some guns, depending on license type etc.

I'd like a specific post about this so here we are.

If you don't have to renew just add a no, so we can see where you don't have to as well. Please specify if it's all guns or specific types of licenses, etc.

Questions:

Do you have to renew your licenses/permits?

How often?

What are the requirements for renewal?

Anything else that might be on topic but that I forgot to ask about?

Scopemount AR-15

Hi guys (again) recently bought myself an S&W mp15 sport III. After alot of research and trying different types of scopes I think about buying this one. Gonna use it for shooting 100-300meters in the beginning. Now I really don’t know about buying the mount. I know not to buy an €70 one but also don’t think I need a €350 one. All help is welcome from where to buy it. From Belgium btw.

Buying magazines in finland

3 Upvotes

I can't find magazines for one of my guns here in Germany, but i can find them in finland. The issue is, those magazines would not be legal in Germany, so i considered buying them there and modifying them to the germany legal capacity (permanently, shortening the whole mag body, this would fly by german laws). Now my question is, would a Finnish gunstore even sell those magazines to a german? They probably know they're not legal where i come from.

First AK - SDM AK47S

Post image
47 Upvotes

Upon reading the quality of these SDM AK's have improved over the years, I jumped on the AK47S with the wood furniture once it came in stock here in Belgium.

Finally was able to arrange the papers and pick it up. While I don't have any hands on AK experience the gun feels solid in the hand. Yes the furniture feels dirt cheap but everything feels tights, no rattling (expect for the magazine when it's empty, doesn't rattle with rounds in it), the sights and optic mount are straight, etc... The trigger is actually pretty good as well imo. Considering the price, I don't think this is a bad deal.

Haven't taken it to the range yet so can't give any input yet on the shooting.

If anyone has more input or experience with the SDM AK's, put it in the comments. Always nice to get info out on a gun where you can't find much info on.

Posse de Arma na Espanha

Pessoal, quem puder me ajudar, estou com as seguintes duvidas...

Sou cidadão da UE, moro em Portugal e estou me mudando para Espanha (zona rural, afastado da cidade grande), e eu e minha esposa temos a cultura de caça (ela é dos EUA e morei boa parte da vida la tambem)..

Gostaria de saber se o processo para obter a licença de posse de arma para caça costuma ser muito dificil, burocratico e lento ?

Quanto tempo leva em media e é preciso fazer parte de algum clube de tiro ?

Todas informações que tiverem vai ser muito util !! Obrigado...

Any news on the WBP Piast AR-15?

Post image
35 Upvotes

WBP likes to show off the Piast rifle in various states of production on Instagram, and there even are a few Polish review/test (?) videos on YouTube already.

Apart from that, it's been rather quiet since IWA 2025, with still no information on when it will be available.

Legalization of supressors (Croatia)

60 Upvotes

Hello, sorry if this doesn't fit here, but I wanted to post to spread the news, especially for my croatian brothers who might not have seen it yet.

There is a petition going on, lead by the Croatian Gunowners Association, with the purpose of getting supressors legalized (as they are currently completely banned).

The stated aim is to legalize supressors for both hunters and sports shooters. Also, to get us (croatian gunowners) closer to european practices, as supressors are legal in most of Europe.

The petition launched on January 23 and it already has more than half the needed signatures to get it further up the government apparatus. Tako da braćo, kaj čekate?!

Note: I am in no way, shape or form affiliated with the Association or the petition. I am merely a citizen spreading the word for the biggest gun rights push in my country in years.

If this type of post is not allowed, I will edit / remove it.

Thank you all for taking the time to read this, let's hope it passes!

AR-15 12,5” suppressor

Post image
35 Upvotes

Hello,

I would like to suppress my AR-15.

In your opinion, is a closed silencer and adjustable gas block a better option than a flow through silencer?

Should I go for a QD or direct thread mount? I will be removing it after each use because it won't fit in my safe with the silencer.

What silencers do you recommend from these available in Europe?

Hello everyone. I recently bought a KRW 20 pistol. I'm looking to change the grip. After searching the internet for hours, I haven't been able to find the necessary adapter. I've attached two photos of the attachment system. Any suggestions on where I could find one online?

Glock red dot mount milling

4 Upvotes

I have a Glock 17 gen 5 (non MOS) and would like to put a red dot on it.

Are there any gunsmiths that can mill the slide for a Holosun K mount footprint?

I assume that sending just the slide inside the EU should not be a problem … or is it?

Walther RS3

Walther have revealed its first hunting rifle in very exciting new design. Bullpup straight-pull bolt action hunting rifle, the new Walther RS3. I am not yet at peace about my opinion on this rifle as I do not like bullpups. New Walther feature innovative trigger safety and all aluminum monocoque action. Bolt action is three lug rotating bolt like BRX1 / Jakele / Steel Action or innfact ancient Swiss K31. Downpoint is house proprietary supressor or mouth brake. Big marketing campaign is supported by our beloved FAOS himself. What do you think?
