I believe our team won some cricket match that night and suddenly I heard gunshots from every possible direction like I was in the middle of Operation Red Storm. My dad came back with a bullet through his windshield which landed on the passenger side. Safe to say I didn't sleep that night. And I'm talking about ONE BULLET here, when I heard automatic firing consistently for more than a minute. These people have no regard for other's safety, many have died from these bullets and still are never charged with endangering others. I almost lost my father that night. Somebody probably lost their father that night. But they will never stop. The government can't stop them any way other than a full crackdown by the military which would turn the entire area into a warzone like Operation Zarb-e-Azab did to north waziristan in 2014.

Until the entire population is with the military and the government, nothing can be done about this.

Ah, the rare Khyber Pass Forgotten Weapons Knockoff Video. At first glance you might think its an actual Forgotten Weapons video, but once you listen closely you'll hear the distinct screeching audio of a cheap knockoff.
This was made by a guy in NW Pakistan who has been watching Ian since his first video. Him & his mates were sitting around drinking tea one night & hatched a plan to supply him with a firearm he really couldn't explain. It was dropped on a track, just over the border in Afghanistan for an SAS patrol to find, picked up & brought back to the UK as a curiosity & subsequently arrived at Royal Armouries where it caught Ian's eye. Objective attained...;-)
This is really impressive! My ex Soviet machine shop worker uncle would have been able to pull this off. He’s a retired lathe operator at ball bearing factory in Alexandria, Romania. He’s also a full time farmer on his own property and ownes and operates heavy duty Soviet farm equipment that most consider outdated because you can’t find parts for them anymore. Several years ago, the factory he retired from purchased new modern lathes and he ended up buying the old Soviet lathe he had worked on for 45 years. He had it transported to his farm and he built a building around it and now he makes his own tractor parts. He would probably be able to crank a few of these out a week if he put his mind to it.
Haha , no it's badly made and some newbie try to devolpe his skills , actually it's a 7mm which is a single bolt rifle so he mix two guns into one and it's looks pretty use less too .
If the person making this had access to actual gunsmithing training and equipment, I wonder what they could have done. It's a little depressing to think about the wasted talent.
They actually make beautiful copies of all sorts of guns. I hear that those guns do not shoot straight. I will post a link to a video if I can find it.
@@saucyballs702 That's because making guns is not as simple as they like to think. There's a lot of different factors such as Gas pressure, tolerances, rifling etc.
Dark Angel Dreadnought 99% of the people who are badmouthing it couldn't come anywhere near this with a shop full of tools, yet the guy who made this might not even have electricity.
@@motorcop505 its basic western ideology to critisise other country's people's hard work, tallent and dedication and show them(westerners) to be superior to everyone
@@loopzoop5508 I think the Gunsmiths just throw together parts from various different weapons and just tinker with them to make functional guns. Khyber Pass weapons are pretty much a hybrid of Frankenguns and "If it works, don't change it and try to copy it for something else".
Except most of the actually decent parts of it would still be illegal in California today. Can it shoot? No. Does it look like a scary bad-guy gun? Yes. Scary is very illegal.
Weeelll, ya see, it's harder to make a gun by accident while trying to make a bomb than it is to accidentally make a bomb instead of a gun. The only time I remember hearing about somebody accidentally making a gun instead of a bomb was when an American scientist set off a small nuke at the bottom of a well in the desert and blew the manhole cover off the top of the well and into space. I think it's still up there. I haven't checked.
"Hey, how are those plasma rifles going?" "Pretty good!" "Listen man, we need to keep it on down low and throw the westerners off with something ridiculous." "What do you have in mind?" "How bout... some sort of... bolt-action... AK! Fed from a Bren mag! And some weird ass ammo too!" "Say no more, fam"
Do you ever wonder if the guy who made that gun has any idea what happened to it? Like, maybe he didn't know any better and genuinely did his best to make a great gun with the tools and inspiration available to him, or maybe he knew full well how ineffective it was but put in the work to make it to the best of his abilities regardless. And now this gun, made in a workshop or a humble mud home by hand over the course of months or weeks, has found its way to the armory of one of the greatest nations of the world and sits cheek-by-jowl with some of the finest and most respected firearms in history. His work of craftsmanship is now an object of fascination and study for gun enthusiasts around the world. I like to think he'd be proud of how far his work has come.
@@reliantncc1864 ah,well spotted! I was going on the accent and the videos are at u.s. auction houses a lot of the time, i was being sarcastic really when the original comment said the gun ended up in "one of the greatest nations armourys" and thinking he meant u.s. . so its egg on my face as im english!!
The illegal gun market has been taken over by the army. sadly no more local guns. when refugee's from afghanistan came into these areas. they exploited these guns against the government. so the army had to close the market. those who made the gun were taken by the army. trained and are now making these for Pakistan army. ( better versions)
I am from Khyber pass, Pakistan, and I think for the price they make these guns and sell them, you would be surprised. That AK when its authentic would cost upwards of $3000 but here's the fun part, the AK he is showing here which is handmade can be bought for as cheap as $130 and i think you can't even get a glock for that price anywhere else. Although the quality is not up to par, we can still appreciate the craftsmanship that goes into it. And another thing, nobody actually uses these rifles here to actually shoot, they just have it lying in their house in their collection, the guns we do shoot are imported mostly from you guessed it, US and Russia and sometimes china.
Got to give someone in a mud hut and old hand tools some credit. Anyone who has some machining experience will know this takes allot of skill. Most people with years of machining experience couldn’t make that by hand.
Baconator Doom It doesn't matters how old you are or how professional your tools are!!! If you know basics about weaponry and engineering, you can Make a fully functional Semi-auto or Bolt action firearm.
ProGamer Ro Yeah but it's gonna look like shit and probably not work until many tries after. You wont have the patience to get halfway to this. Any normal western person will concede that it's a waste of time and abandon such a project, saying it can't be done because they dont have a mill.
I'm betting the round for this was spanish 7x57 mm mauser, lots of 7mm mauser was in the region brought in from the Ottoman Empire, and it was a widely available ammo due to use by many 3rd rate nations in WW2; however, it could also be Swiss because the Swiss had involvement arming Iran prior to the Iran conflict of 1946.
My 1893 Spanish Mauser that fires 7x57mm uses the exact same mechanism to remove the bolt from the gun, I'm pretty sure the intended caliber was 7x57mm Mauser.
I thought the same since .275 Rigby was a popular sporting cartridge in British India and that's the same as 7x57, but the case diameter of 7x57 is 12.01 mm and the case diameter of .303 British is 11.68 mm. If .303 can't fit in the chamber 7x57 can't either.
Well the .303 probably can't fit in the chamber due to the larger bullet diameter not the case diameter. The .303 bullet diameter is 7.92 mm while 7x57 Mauser is smaller at 7.24 mm.
It chambers 7meh. It's is wildcat round with a .5 mm bore tolerance using a necked down or up bit of brass tube stock with a percussion cap primer. There was an earlier rocketball variant that was less successful. It is currently made by the Green Tape Concern.
I can't believe they'd rather have this garbage than literally any other weapon in the fucking game. L96/110/whatever AWP bullshit is a real gun you could have put it, it's bolt action, it'd work fine
Bryce Piper What's impressive is that Khyber Pass gunsmiths have been manufacturing counterfeit weapons for hundreds of years and they still haven't gotten at least SOME machine tooling.
Van Doren Or, y'know, the kind of money it takes to get a mill or drill press from overseas. But sure, let's go with "these people, some of whom can make a functional AK with a file set and a chunk of steel and many who can at least make it look functional, are all idiots by default"
Lourenco Almada something tells me that if they try to go any more professional, goverment would simply roll up in a few APCs and demand tax revenue. Haven't considered this, have you?
+Van Doren, you make the mistake of thinking every oddity you've seen on your computer screen is entirely representative of what the Pass has to offer. Which means you assume that you've seen it all from the seat of your computer chair. It's an ignorant assumption to make, to say the least, but I can see why - from what you probably have seen - you'd feel this way.
Finally, I see something from my country on this channel. although I’ve never seen one here in real life in any hands (law enforcement or otherwise), Since these are just cheap replicas. (it’s alright we do make normal guns here though, and good ones too) BUT, this gun is from the Khyber. They literally made this out of scratch and can do so to any gun in existence. That deserves some praise.
Actually i saw a few in the hands of guards at my university. Of course they all were pathan. I was too intimidated back then to ask what on earth is that rifle they keep polishing.
Idk what impressed me the most; that it was all handmade (the detail on the gas tube and flash hider are amazing!), that they faithfully recreated an AK as a bolt-action (likely for just the aesthetics as Ian said they likely had the knowledge to make a self-loader), or that they handmade a magazine off a century-old Bren gun.
@MrOverCritical1989 Just because the mag is physically large doesn't mean it has a high capacity. The folding stock, however, may be problematic in the People's Republic of Northern El Salvador.
Or maybe it's all a ruse. Meant to just look like an AK from a distance so maybe some bad people would think twice about messing around. And if absolutely necessary a round could be fired as a warning shot...maybe a possibility idk
@@JessePorter Does the mechanism on a fully automatic weapon/self loader not require some basic understanding of gas pressure/precision metal working to make it able to work? Easier to just make a percussion cap "cannon/musket" innit?
@@Elenrai Well, first of all, we're not really talking about a select-fire AK, but a semi-auto AK. Second, I would argue that someone with those kinds of weapon-making skills would probably have the understanding of which you are speaking.
@@JessePorter The gun in the video is bolt action tho? I meant that the creator of the rifle might not have had the necessary understanding of guns to make the whole self loading mechanism, but effectively making a musket/hand cannon is something you can teach a child, thus I suggest that the reason they do not simply make an AK is because the technical understanding of firearms required to make a self loading rifle of any kind might not have been possible. Just take world war 2 major powers, and consider how much of a nightmare it were for Germany for instance, to actually make a reliable self loading rifle despite highly educated engineers and dedicated guns. Another reason that they might not want the thing to be full auto is the Sten gun and its uh...temperamental nature, if they have had those things lying around for a while they might have figured out that home made automatic firearms were too dangerous to have.
the guns of the Khyber Pass never fail to both amuse and impress. No matter how rough they look, there is a superhuman individual cranking these things out without proper measuring tools. Some of the higher end ones are indistinguishable from the originals, outside the unusual additional features added by the local maker. For example, ever seen an AK-74 clone with an underfolding stock rather than a triangle side folder? Yep. Stuff like that.
the ingenuity of gunsmiths in situations like the khyber pass or workshops during the chinese civil war never ceases to amaze me. they did/do so much with such basic tools and I have so much respect for them
A lot of these weapons are rubbish. All they are doing is making copies of guns, without actually understanding gun design or what makes a gun good. Trust me, with a basic workshop it wouldnt take much to make a better gun.
Yet the Rogak exists. Honestly, I had to watch that video again, and wondered just how in the hell an American company can make a worse gun than tribesmen with a file and a hammer.
This reminds me of the Chinese pistols on Ian's channel, where the "gunsmith" copied the looks of certain pistols controls and features, yet none were actually functional. The gas tube and cleaning rod are hilarious.. the front sight post is super scary. This all reminds me of about 47 years ago(I was 12..), when I took a single shot, bolt action .22lr, milled out the bottom of the receiver in an attempt to make it magazine fed. My Dad was furious when he found out, and I was grounded for couple months, unable to play with any of my guns. I since bought a real, magazine fed .22 rifle..?
Pass a ban on firearms here, and you'll see a Khyber Pass around every fucking corner. In the land of plenty, why provide for yourself when the entire system is based around labor and accumulating the wealth to pay for that labor and service? It's not The People, it's the system they inhabit.

Is it weird that some parts of Alabama classify as a "Third World mountain range" too? There's got to be some billy in his shack firing up the lathe right next to his moonshine still. We're not so different than those Khyber guys in some weird ways.
HappyBeezerStudios - by Lord_Mogul We do indeed but most of the country has illegalsed them for quite some time now so no more automatic weapons basically
Looks to me like a creation similar to that of the Khyber Pass Martini Henri Pistols. Meant mainly for rich tourists to buy and safely hang on their walls, due to them being pretty much inert. Impressive amount of workmanship. 👍
When I see stuff like this I always wonder how the Pakistani nuclear program went. "Let's shape those uranium spheres by hand and keep working on them until they look mostly like the drawing Dr. Khan stole."
I for one couldn't make anything like this. Clearly if it exploded then it wouldn't be here. For a functional gun, hand made bolt, magazine, etc, it's really good.
Having once been in the military, and grown up as an USAF brat in the 50s and 60s I would say you have a “work of art” who’s purpose is to gather money from rookies. Much like when we sent them you to gather the DHO report. Still it is nice to see that someone took such great pains to trick a rookie. Thanks for all your work. This is my first post. I know squat about firearms, but really enjoy the engineering that goes into the making them. And time at the range is always fun.
7mm mauser predates 8mm mauser. Even if the country never had large quantities of 7X57 , with that cartridge having over 100 years of history, its certainly not impossible that some surplus ammo found its way there. At any rate since this is what Ian "does" there is no excuse for him to not have some pocket calipers and gauges to be able to easily find out the answers to questions like this.
7x57mm mauser would probably fit, the gun's bolt release is exactly the same as mine on my spanish 1893 mauser, which, you guessed it, is chambered for 7x57mm.
Here's a slice of Irony. This just popped up. "Determining Unknown Calibers with Cerrosafe" Granted, Cerrosafe is likely not an option for Ian while messing with extremely rare firearms, but still, there are a gamut of other methods. th-cam.com/video/c9stuhaYuj4/w-d-xo.html
If it's an uncommon but standardized caliber it's a commercially viable chambering in Pakistan. Pakistan has legal gun ownership, but bans military calibers. 8mmKurz was popular until it was banned a couple years back when politicians noticed people saw it as a viable alternative to 7.62x39Soviet and were building AKs for it.
Looks to me like it was made by someone familiar with bolt actions but had never seen an automatic in person/opened up trying to replicate an AK from a picture only. It explains all the decorative elements if the creator was basing it off an image and not familiar with what each part was intended to do. Edit: by decorative I mean the non-functional parts like the gas block and cleaning rod not the knurling.
so awsome that you posted a video about this one, im making a replica of this one, with mosin reciver bent flat steel recivers that the mosin reciver sits in, flatsided ak magazine barrel made from scratch in 7,62x39mm type 1 ak grips and furniture and a underfolder ak stock
I suppose if you get one and don't take the time to lube it up properly it might cause some issues, but that's just poor ownership. I hear they come from the factory bone-dry.
When I look at this I think of a farmer that contracted a local gunsmith to build a firearm; he probably didn't have the money for a full auto firearm, and given he was a farmer and part time hunter a bolt action would be cheaper to use and more practical. The reason he wanted it to look like an AK was to ward off potential intruders onto his property looking to rob or harm him. Standing at a fair distance from them while brandishing this rifle will definitely make anyone have second thoughts about proceeding with any mischief they may have had in mind. My other theory is that in Pakistan the AK-47 is seen as a type of status symbol, and the guy that commissioned this was looking for a bolt action but wanted it to look like an AK because that is what everyone associates with a high-status weapon.
Mujahideen: "I have designed the perfect firearm." Taliban: "Bro put that down, we have automatics now." Mujahideen: "Perfect, we will kick out the Soviets once and for all!"

Ah, the rare Khyber Pass Forgotten Weapons Knockoff Video. At first glance you might think its an actual Forgotten Weapons video, but once you listen closely you'll hear the distinct screeching audio of a cheap knockoff.
Notice how none of Ian's lines are parallel.
This was made by a guy in NW Pakistan who has been watching Ian since his first video. Him & his mates were sitting around drinking tea one night & hatched a plan to supply him with a firearm he really couldn't explain. It was dropped on a track, just over the border in Afghanistan for an SAS patrol to find, picked up & brought back to the UK as a curiosity & subsequently arrived at Royal Armouries where it caught Ian's eye.
Objective attained...;-)
They were probably smoking some bomb ass hash thats so common in that region but yeah sounds about right

Ye that guy was me lol
This is really impressive! My ex Soviet machine shop worker uncle would have been able to pull this off. He’s a retired lathe operator at ball bearing factory in Alexandria, Romania. He’s also a full time farmer on his own property and ownes and operates heavy duty Soviet farm equipment that most consider outdated because you can’t find parts for them anymore. Several years ago, the factory he retired from purchased new modern lathes and he ended up buying the old Soviet lathe he had worked on for 45 years. He had it transported to his farm and he built a building around it and now he makes his own tractor parts. He would probably be able to crank a few of these out a week if he put his mind to it.
He should start his own youtube channel.

I think the Gunsmiths just throw together parts from various different weapons and just tinker with them to make functional guns. Khyber Pass weapons are pretty much a hybrid of Frankenguns and "If it works, don't change it and try to copy it for something else".
We totally need more insane Khyber Pass reviews, surely there must be a Martini Henry made from train tracks chambered in .303 somewhere.

Weeelll, ya see, it's harder to make a gun by accident while trying to make a bomb than it is to accidentally make a bomb instead of a gun. The only time I remember hearing about somebody accidentally making a gun instead of a bomb was when an American scientist set off a small nuke at the bottom of a well in the desert and blew the manhole cover off the top of the well and into space.

Do you ever wonder if the guy who made that gun has any idea what happened to it? Like, maybe he didn't know any better and genuinely did his best to make a great gun with the tools and inspiration available to him, or maybe he knew full well how ineffective it was but put in the work to make it to the best of his abilities regardless. And now this gun, made in a workshop or a humble mud home by hand over the course of months or weeks, has found its way to the armory of one of the greatest nations of the world and sits cheek-by-jowl with some of the finest and most respected firearms in history. His work of craftsmanship is now an object of fascination and study for gun enthusiasts around the world.

I am from Khyber pass, Pakistan, and I think for the price they make these guns and sell them, you would be surprised. That AK when its authentic would cost upwards of $3000 but here's the fun part, the AK he is showing here which is handmade can be bought for as cheap as $130 and i think you can't even get a glock for that price anywhere else. Although the quality is not up to par, we can still appreciate the craftsmanship that goes into it. And another thing, nobody actually uses these rifles here to actually shoot, they just have it lying in their house in their collection, the guns we do shoot are imported mostly from you guessed it, US and Russia and sometimes china.
Got to give someone in a mud hut and old hand tools some credit. Anyone who has some machining experience will know this takes allot of skill. Most people with years of machining experience couldn’t make that by hand.

Imagine grabbing this thing in a gunfight and suddenly realising you were the victim of the most elaborate prank known to man.
I'm betting the round for this was spanish 7x57 mm mauser, lots of 7mm mauser was in the region brought in from the Ottoman Empire, and it was a widely available ammo due to use by many 3rd rate nations in WW2; however, it could also be Swiss because the Swiss had involvement arming Iran prior to the Iran conflict of 1946.
My 1893 Spanish Mauser that fires 7x57mm uses the exact same mechanism to remove the bolt from the gun, I'm pretty sure the intended caliber was 7x57mm Mauser.
I thought the same since .275 Rigby was a popular sporting cartridge in British India and that's the same as 7x57, but the case diameter of 7x57 is 12.01 mm and the case diameter of .303 British is 11.68 mm. If .303 can't fit in the chamber 7x57 can't either.
Well the .303 probably can't fit in the chamber due to the larger bullet diameter not the case diameter. The .303 bullet diameter is 7.92 mm while 7x57 Mauser is smaller at 7.24 mm.
Also CZ Brno made a lot of hunting rifles in 7x57 mm, and former Czechoslovakia had good relations with Pakistan and exported lot of stuff there.
KamikazKid This is 7mm 7X57 chilean mauser bolt and caliber and the body is a ak I had one

@@JessePorter The gun in the video is bolt action tho? I meant that the creator of the rifle might not have had the necessary understanding of guns to make the whole self loading mechanism, but effectively making a musket/hand cannon is something you can teach a child, thus I suggest that the reason they do not simply make an AK is because the technical understanding of firearms required to make a self loading rifle of any kind might not have been possible.
Just take world war 2 major powers, and consider how much of a nightmare it were for Germany for instance, to actually make a reliable self loading rifle despite highly educated engineers and dedicated guns.
Another reason that they might not want the thing to be full auto is the Sten gun and its uh...temperamental nature, if they have had those things lying around for a while they might have figured out that home made automatic firearms were too dangerous to have.
Only people who don't understand guns & the legality surrounding self-defense laws would speak about warning shots as a reality.
the guns of the Khyber Pass never fail to both amuse and impress. No matter how rough they look, there is a superhuman individual cranking these things out without proper measuring tools. Some of the higher end ones are indistinguishable from the originals, outside the unusual additional features added by the local maker. For example, ever seen an AK-74 clone with an underfolding stock rather than a triangle side folder? Yep. Stuff like that.

I'm surprised you didn't immediately check 7X57 mauser, it would be the first most logical guess with a 7mm stamping.
7mm mauser predates 8mm mauser. Even if the country never had large quantities of 7X57 , with that cartridge having over 100 years of history, its certainly not impossible that some surplus ammo found its way there.
At any rate since this is what Ian "does" there is no excuse for him to not have some pocket calipers and gauges to be able to easily find out the answers to questions like this.
7x57mm mauser would probably fit, the gun's bolt release is exactly the same as mine on my spanish 1893 mauser, which, you guessed it, is chambered for 7x57mm.
Here's a slice of Irony. This just popped up. "Determining Unknown Calibers with Cerrosafe" Granted, Cerrosafe is likely not an option for Ian while messing with extremely rare firearms, but still, there are a gamut of other methods. th-cam.com/video/c9stuhaYuj4/w-d-xo.html
toomanyaccounts if you were to read the ARES post, you would indeed discover that it is 7x57 Mauser.
If it's an uncommon but standardized caliber it's a commercially viable chambering in Pakistan.
Pakistan has legal gun ownership, but bans military calibers.
8mmKurz was popular until it was banned a couple years back when politicians noticed people saw it as a viable alternative to 7.62x39Soviet and were building AKs for it.
Next Ian should review its modernized counter part. The Longbow

Edit: by decorative I mean the non-functional parts like the gas block and cleaning rod not the knurling.

@Joey Murphy
Wear a glove on your off hand, the forgrip of my M70 heats up too, it's just a feature of guns like the AKM or STG-44.
When I look at this I think of a farmer that contracted a local gunsmith to build a firearm; he probably didn't have the money for a full auto firearm, and given he was a farmer and part time hunter a bolt action would be cheaper to use and more practical. The reason he wanted it to look like an AK was to ward off potential intruders onto his property looking to rob or harm him. Standing at a fair distance from them while brandishing this rifle will definitely make anyone have second thoughts about proceeding with any mischief they may have had in mind.
