Strange HANDGUN

Had one of those about 20yrs ago. It was fun for a while and then traded it off. Big muzzle blast and fireball at night.

Maybe I'll shoot it at night too see how bad the muzzle flash is

Here's one in action:

Here's one in action:

That looks like a scene from Uncommon Valor.

 

[Squib]

That would make a heck of a home defense setup; especially with a large cap magazine.

Question: Not to be the master of the obvious here, but this looks like a homemade job where the grip is cut out of leftover wood when they cut the stock off. I have never seen anything like this, are they homemade? They look like they would be a blast to shoot.

Not homemade, I believe they were made by Ivers-Johnson...

Working on memory and a crapberry phone here. So I could be wrong...

I don't remember if it was Iver-Johnson, but these were a commercial offering based on the full-stocked model. I'm pretty sure I saw some of these in the 70's.

It should be just about equivalent to a Draco, in that, if you SBR it, there are ways to put a stock on it or put a sling-swivel on the back to stabilize it with a single-point sling.

The Enforcer was made by Universal. They were a commercially made weapon and a lot of GI parts will not work on them. Mags will work fine though. I think they were made to try to boost Universals lagging sales and try to overcome the poor reputation associated with Universal Carbines. They were pretty popular when they were introduced and could be found at most gun shows for very attractive prices.

OK, thanks for the education! I think they look cool. Would love to have one.

Thanks for the save on that. I could not remember for sure who had made them...

It should kick less than the Draco, cause it's a 30 carbine (7.62x33)

Universal was, however, purchased by IJ in 1983, just as they had earlier purchased Plainfield.

 

[eblevins]

great gun, you got an excellent deal. If you get a chance to fire a Ruger Blackhawk in 30 carbine try it you will like it.

 

[msirelan]

I would pay the tax stamp and put a stock on it
