This sound library is a collection of pistols & sidearms from Europe that were recorded at an outdoor shooting range in Sweden in August of 2024.

This library contains the fired set of vintage handguns from Germany and Italy (delivered at 96 kHz sample rate), which consists of: Smith & Wesson 66 Revolver, Luger P08, Walther GSP, Walther PP, and Beretta 92F. These sounds have been captured with the Audio-Technica AT2020 and the Shure SM57 microphones.

It also contains a set of foley actions that have been performed and recorded with the same weapons as well as the Swedish Mauser 1938, a German Geco shotgun, and the Swedish AG42B Ljungman automatic rifle. These sounds have been captured with the EM258 ultrasonic microphone by Micbooster (delivered at 192 kHz sample rate).

The weapon shots are provided in stereo, while foley elements are mono files. Some recordings have been provided in polywav format in situations where various perspectives of the weapons firing were captured at the same time.
