This video documents an unplanned trip to Sulaymaniyah, Kurdistan, by Jake of 1911 Syndicate, focusing on the hunt for rare firearms. Accompanied by Bafel Talabani, President of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan, Jake explores a local 'Gun Mall,' encountering and acquiring several highly sought-after pieces including Beretta M12 submachine guns, a Colt 1902 Military model, an AKS-74U Krink, a VZ 61 Skorpion, and a Webley Mark IV revolver. The expedition also highlights the availability of high-end tactical gear, such as an L3Harris NGAL.
This review details a rare Mexican-contract Colt Model 1902 Military pistol, originally chambered in .38 ACP. Distinctive features include factory-ordered mother-of-pearl grips and the Mexican eagle crest on the slide. The pistol saw service during the Mexican Revolution, with 800 units produced for the Mexican Ministry of Army and Navy.
This review details the rare Mexican Luger, a variant intended for the Mexican Army under Porfirio Diaz's modernization efforts. Despite favorable trials of 7.65mm and 9mm versions, it was not adopted due to political upheaval. The pistol is identified by its 'Ejercito Mexicano' marking, likely applied in Mexico, and falls within specific serial number ranges shared with Russian trial guns. Mexico ultimately adopted Colt pistols instead.
