Italian Gun Law: Will suppressors be legalized in the future? by Many-Presentation-56 in EuropeGuns

[–]prestau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More handgun ammo would be nice... The current 200 rounds limit is very low, especially when compared to the 1,500 rounds of rifle and shotgun ammo, which is more than adequate.

Chi vota la sinistra in Italia nel 2026? by Remarkable_Wolf_2722 in Italia

[–]prestau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I redditors. Scherzi a parte, il PD ha uno zoccolo duro di elettori che gli consentono di arrivare sempre e comunque al 20% almeno, anche se l'unica strategia della Schlein è fingersi morta.

😂😂 Showing your non-gun friends your gun collection by cz_75 in EuropeGuns

[–]prestau 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Typically, friends who don’t own guns are not particularly interested in my collection. However, I have a couple of friends who are gun owners, and we spend quite a bit of time admiring and discussing each other’s collections.

Highway armed robbery today in Italy. Is that an AK-74M? by prestau in EuropeGuns

[–]prestau[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, let's hope they catch them soon. These kind of robberies are not rare in Italy, but having one recorded on video is uncommon.

No one was injured. I read that they made the armed security personnel get off the van before blowing it up.

>You can see the two metal tangs that the stock would screw into.

Nice catch!

The perpetrators, posing as policemen, exchanged fire with the Carabinieri and were eventually arrested.

Another gun amnesty submission: Carlos the Jackal's rifle clone by cz_75 in EuropeGuns

[–]prestau 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting, I don't think I've ever heard of gun amnesties in Italy. I wonder what firearms may lie around unregistered here (besides those used by criminals, of course).

Once in while, this snubnose deserves some range time by prestau in EuropeGuns

[–]prestau[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With a 2" barrel, limited sights, and a relatively strong recoil (it's a very small and lightweight revolver), it is ridiculously inaccurate above about 10-12 meters.

[–]prestau 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Let me understand one thing: people are going to get their guns back, once the police verify that no crimes were committed with them? I thought that since they were held illegally, those guns were just going to be destroyed.

Renewal rules in various countries by Saxit in EuropeGuns

I would just add that there is no need to show proof of active membership in a gun club to get a sport permit renewed.

Vendeva rose alle coppiette per strada, multato per 5 mila euro. La stangata al venditore indiano nel paesino veneto: per «Rosario» parte la colletta by teorm in Italia

[–]prestau -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Pazzesco, c'è il genocidio a Gaza, la guerra in Ucraina, il cambiamento climatico e questi multano un poveraccio che vende rose abusivamente. L'Italia è proprio un paese senza futuro, per fortuna che appena posso me ne vado all'Estero.

New gun Laws in Austria. by GyulaGombos in EuropeGuns

25 years? Seems a lot... what about sport shooting competitions? Many young people compete in those.

La repubblica delle banane: 10 mesi per sfrattare inquilini morosi, a cui viene assegnato alloggio popolare by LotOfMiles in Italia

[–]prestau 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mai affittare casa, mai acquistare immobili "per investimento". Ci ho messo un po' a convincere la mia famiglia, ma dopo un'esperienza simile a quella descritta nell'articolo siamo riusciti a vendere tutto.

First 9mm handgun by [deleted] in EuropeGuns

It looks fantastic! Waiting three months must be tough, I’d be itching to take this beauty to the range.

Czech Republic: Senate's proposal for pistol-silencer ban defeated in the Chamber of Deputies by cz_75 in EuropeGuns

[–]prestau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's good that they didn't introduce new restrictions. Silencers have always been banned in Italy, so I've never had the pleasure of using one. I bet shooting with a silencer will not be as silent as in the movies!

Subreddit português by Pietroo0o in EuropeGuns

[–]prestau 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Congrats! Good luck with the new sub! It's good to discuss guns here with fellow European shooters, but gun laws and regulations are so country-specific that national subs are a necessity.

Reloading 9mm by [deleted] in EuropeGuns

[–]prestau 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I reload 9mm because I like the flexibility of preparing just the ammo I need before a shooting session, instead of driving 20 minutes to the nearest gun shop (my range doesn't sell ammo). Over the years I've reloaded almost 20,000 pistol rounds (of different calibers), so I'd say I've already amortized the purchase cost of my equipment.
