Reference sites for used/old firearms?

wright.tom85

So...this isn't a technical problem or an in-progress model, so I guess this goes here? Sorry if I'm wrong.

I'm finding myself doing a lot of weapons-based 3d work right now, and I'm having some problems finding certain kinds of reference. Specifically, large images that show good examples of the wear and tear you'd expect to see on a well-used gun. Plenty of reference of pristine, well-kept weapons, plenty of ancient, corroded relics, but nothing in between.

Does anyone have any suggestions on where I could find such reference? Google has been somewhat unreliable for this...or maybe I'm just using the wrong keywords. :P

Thanks in advance!

Gun forums can have some good refs sometimes. People like to take nice photo's of their shiney new/old guns and show them off.

I guess it would also depend on the type of gun and the amount of wear and rust your looking for. Someones nicely kept AK that they bought in the states is going to be very different than an AK being used Libya.
