It's going through higher ups right now. ATF has already decided they'd rather fingerprint everyone (including trusts and businesses) than have signatures being misused by CLEOs.

Which is why I said hopefully within a year.

Here's my AK, I got it from my uncle awhile back, I dont know all the "technical" terms but I do know it has a forged receiver rather than stamped and is a Poly Tech (if thats even decent idk haha) My uncle got it back in the early 90's. Its still in amazing shape! I love AK's and this has been my favorite one i've seen so far in person:

Sorry for the shitty first pic

Re: The Gun Thread
 

omfg. CAN I BUY THAT AK from you?! That's a Pre-Ban Chinese AK47!!! !!!!! !!!!!

Re: The Gun Thread
 

That would be nice, but I am going the Trust route. That way my wife and eventually my son can also be trustees and have legal access to them.


I also have a very large chunk of cash I'd be willing to offer you for that rifle :D

Re: The Gun Thread
 

Well, I completed my AR build a couple weeks ago. I enjoyed the project and I accomplished what I wanted and my buddies and father got to shoot it so I traded it.

I ended up trading it for a Glock 21SF and some cash. I shot it today and really enjoyed shooting the 45. It's the first handgun I've owned, and shooting a pistol is a bit tricky, but I'm happy with my trade.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

Has anyone ever gotten to check out one of those keltec ksg shotguns? I saw one for pretty damn cheap the other day, and was wondering if any of you had experienced one.
Link to what I'm talking about, in case you don't know what I'm referring to-

Don't mind the msrp on there, I've seen them for around $5-600. Just seems like a fun gun to go burn some rounds with, or to take out any would be intruders lol.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

They do look decent. I haven't heard anything about them bad or good. But I'd take a Saiga over one since I don't need to routinely switch between breaching loads and slugs.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

I just liked the idea of something pretty compact, its just over 26" in total, and pretty cheap. Saigas seemed to have gone through the roof in pricing lately.

I really do like Kevin's Saiga.

A decent "in-depth" review I've seen on the KSG Vs. other options. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_z6vqX0-K0


Bought a Swiss K31 the other week. Got to shoot it today, it goes bang.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

Ooooo. A gun thread. I'm liking this forum more already. Here's my Russian Mosin Nagant 91/30 that I rebuilt. I got it for $75 at a gun show. It's a very common model and has mismatching numbers so I'm not destroying a classic.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

It's a bad picture I know. Built the stock, remachined a custom mount, glassbed barrel, remachined the trigger, built the cheekpiece, and some other stuff. I can't remember...

Re: The Gun Thread
 

Went and shot some skeet for the first time ever today. Only my second time shooting a (my) shot gun. Tons of fun busting clays.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

I've always wanted to try skeet after shooting league trap for 12 years. Bang bang skeet Skeet.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

New choke adapter for the S-12. Patterns great, Need to go bust some clays!

Finally picked up a M44, 1944 dated Izhmash to be exact.

I wonder if it's killed any Nazi's?

Re: The Gun Thread
 

nice... This topic is now of interest too me since my daughter is dating boys now. :)

Re: The Gun Thread
 

Looking at a colt ar flat top. Anybody know much about them? Would someone be willing to look at it with me?

Re: The Gun Thread
 

Holly shit. You guys have some serious firepower! I didn't know you could legally own weapons like that!
The old school AK47's I thought were defiantly illegal....

My bestfreinds uncle is a huge gun nut. His basement is converted into a huge safe like fortress lol. He's a trader collector and enthusiast. He would always tell us stories of him shooting at prairie dogs in the dakota's with his .50 cal. But I personally never seen it. I did see his literal oddles of othier guns though. His basement looks like the scene from the matrix where they pick there weapons lol.

I just never understood the need for more then 2 guns when you only have two hands and load is expensive. But don't flame I'm still a noob to firearms. I do have a .22 though. Yeah buuuudy.. fill pop cans with water and shooting them is fun no matter how old you are ........

Re: The Gun Thread
 

Finally getting excited about guns again. Gonna shoot a couple pistols, an xdm, and a few glocks. Gonna get my conceal and carry, and eventually buy myself a pistol and an AR. I have spent a bunch of time picking and choosing what I want and will be able to afford, I'm pretty excited to get my first couple weapons of my own.

Right now I'm planning on picking up a glock 23, which is one of the guns ill be testing out. I have an idea of what I want in my AR, we will see what I can get together.

And since I have nothing of my own, here is a picture of sweet .50 beowulf :)

Re: The Gun Thread
 

Just curious why you chose the Glock 23 before shooting any of them? Or is it still kind of up in the air until after you've shot them all?

I got my SA before shooting anything else and kind of wish I had tried out a few more ahead of time.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

It isn't decided by any means. The 23 was highly recommended by a few people, for what I was looking out of a pistol. I have held the xdm and the 23 and just from hand feel, I already like the 23 more. My friend also has a 19, so ill give that a go as well.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

Just got my first Kahr and i love it. Went with the K9 full stainless little heavyer than the poly frame Kahrs. Main reason was for the crimson trace laser grip i can add on. Gun will be for CC license and got to shoot it today, not to much buck for the small frame. i like it and got a good deal on it.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

Those have always intrigued me, def good on price from what I have heard. I haven't seen many bad things about them either. We should have a mitsustyle range trip! I'm going to get an AR first, as I want something a little more fun to shoot, since I won't be doing it often.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

I have a glock 27 gen 4 that I CC and I couldnt be happier... My brother is a local officer and carries the Glock 23 and seems to be happy with it. I've shot it a few times and like it but its a little big to conceal in my eyes.

Here is mine... MD cans to rep size.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

I like the 27, I my self was looking at the 26 (samething just a 9mm instead of 40) and shot one and really liked it. i just like the kahr a little better because of the single stack clip. makes the whole gun feel so skinny compared to the fat glock.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

Well, no new guns for me since the Swiss, but I did go get my carry permit. It was odd timing for me, I had paid for and was waiting for my class and then the whole Batman/Colorado thing went down about a week before. Been carrying my Sig P225 whenever possible since. I am thinking I might look into a M&P Shield for something just a tad lighter. I've gotten used to concealing the full size pistol, but a compact just seems to interest me.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

I would urge you to make sure you shoot both the shield and m&p9c before you go and buy the shield. I went to buy my carry piece I thought the shield was gonna be it. My buddy (works at the gun shop I go to) encouraged me to think about the m&p9c.

With the shield you:
-You lose the option of a safety lever or not.
-Lose grip inserts.
-You lose ambidextrous controls.
-You lose 5 rounds

Dimensions are pretty damn identical, though the shield is a fair bit slimmer since its a single stack. But neither are intended to be pocket guns. I've been carrying the m&p9c daily for the past year or so now, its really been a great little gun. And compared to a P225 it'll seem plenty small. Just something to think about.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

i also looked at the m&p9c. not a bad piece at all. anyone like the kimber solo? or sig 938?

Re: The Gun Thread
 

My new carry weapon. Springfield XDs .45 ACP.

Buy your guns and ammo quick! http://www.opednews.com/populum/link...?linkid=158418

Re: The Gun Thread
 

After reading that iam going to make it a goal to buy a firearm before 2013.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

^X2

Re: The Gun Thread
 

Glad I have one in my nightstand...

Re: The Gun Thread
 

i was just reading on this, how do you like it? have you shot it yet?

Re: The Gun Thread
 

Looks like I better get my pistol soon, just picked up a Savage .270 so I should be good with everything else. Ammo becomes the next question mark.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

The Good: It's a great size for carry, it's very simple to take down and clear, its accurate, it has a nice fiber optic front sight that comes with extra red or green in the case, also comes with 2 mags, a holster, a mag holster, a lock, and brush.

The Bad: The parts are a tight fit. This is both good and bad. People have reported problems with light strikes and misfeeds. Springfield has stated that they did send them from the factory a little dry. They recommend lube and a break in period of about 200 rounds. Both 1G_DSM and I have experienced this.

However, both of us also have resolved the issue with a little lube and proper grip. On that note, it is a small gun. If you have a large hand, you may find it difficult to grip because your pinky hangs off the end. This is why I have the 7 round mag, it allows me to get my full hand on it. After lubing it properly I've put another 250 rounds through it, and didn't have any issues with it. I would have like it to have worked properly from the factory, but given it was a simple fix, I'm very satisfied with it.

You can take your tin-foil hats off. That article is crap.
