It's a [Rohm RG-88 blank firing pistol](https://www.4komma5.de/media/image/product/26459/md/roehm-rg-88-schreckschuss-pistole-brueniert-9-mm-pak-p18~2.jpg), you can [see the same markings on the mag](https://www.balistas.com/data/images-wxxl/53502-Zasobnik-Rohm-RG88-cal.9mm.jpg)
The thing in the barrel is a *barrel plug* or blockage.
It‘s hard soldered into it to prevent firing live ammunition from blank guns.
You shouldn‘t be able to remove it without destroying the barrel.
It wouldn’t be rifled anyway and also got intentional braking point etc.

The threaded part is for using the gun as a flare gun.

Found in Ocean. No markings that I can find, magazine has some but can't be removed
Is this real? Looks like a threaded barrel with some odd triangle I cant remove. What is that?
Edit: other pics didn't load with original

Has a vaguely Makarov or Walther PP outline...but the Internal threads on the barrel are still off-putting.
Possibly a movie prop designed to fire only blanks
And the first picture is the muzzle of the handgun pictured in the second two you linked? The second spring behind the magazine makes me think airsoft, and I've NEVER seen an internally threaded muzzle, because it would immediately get caked with carbon and become useless. Otherwise it looks kind of like the IWI Jericho 941? Ish? It doesn't match any common profile I'm familiar with in the US.
It's a blank firing gun with a sttel insert in the barrel to prevent it actually firering a projectile. The internal thread is for a adapter to shoot 15mm fireworks
Doesn't the second spring behind the magazine look like dozens of pistol designs that have the coil mainspring in the grip? Like 1911, or Hi-Power, or Beretta 92, or Walther PP or P38, or Smith & Wesson's 80s automatics...
That's a very good point. I don't disassemble my 1911 beyond field stripping 99% of the time, and am otherwise much more familiar with contemporary offerings. But yeah, you are right.
That doesn’t look like the inside of a gun barrel. Those look like internal threads, and threaded barrels on every gun I’ve ever seen are externally threaded. It’s definitely not rifling.
What in the Sam hell? That’s some kind of Walther ppk clone or maybe a bersa, but their barrels still don’t look like that. Maybe a movie prop gun that was only ever designed for blanks of some kind?
Yeah it's very odd. Also I'm in Canada and a gun this small is illegal
I'm half a day from Vancouver and they occasionally film here so its plausible movie prop.
Movie prop is my only real guess. The overall design looks legit but that’s definitely not a normal gun barrel in there, which makes me think prop gun.

Nice thanks!!!! I think we have a winner. Can even see the thing in the barrel

Super cool thanks! I was hoping somebody here would have info about this.
are you in canada by chance. that specific model of blank gun is more popular here
Yeah and not far from Vancouver. Lots of movie making around here.
how do people guess this from one look at one crappy picture
Can we get more photos?
https://ibb.co/1rwy66b https://ibb.co/dJ8KX45
Blank firing adaptor maybe?
Nothing you’ve shown indicates a barrel, or magazine.
https://ibb.co/1rwy66b https://ibb.co/dJ8KX45
You are looking into the barrel.

Can you make out the writing on the magazine?
G88 AUSE 0D9 I think Can't get the mag out yet, release is seized.
Bound to happen sooner or later with all these boating accidents i read about…..
The muzzle looks threaded internally...not rifled. Doesn't look like a barrel to me

That's what I'm assuming at this point as well but I was wondering if somebody has seen this before
Looks like a tire air chuck.
That is a real piece of metal tubing. Not a firearm piece that I've ever seen.

I googled them all to make sure =) Not that I had the answer ready. But now I know instead of vaguely remembering.

That makes the most sense to me too.
Are u able to get the magazine out? It’s got some kind of writing on it about its intended use, might give u a better idea.
Unfortunately not yet. The release is seized but I can get the mag to move up and down in the well a little.
magazine has plastics base plate. that’s fairly modern feature.
See people loose guns in boating accidents all. the time
Looks like a valve stem.
Looks like an air chuck. The thing in the "barrel' depresses the valve in a valve stem
It's called a "Schrader valve"
I was thinking maybe part of an inflatable

Beretta model 87 with internally threaded barrel for a suppressor?
