And back here, I can go into a shop and buy a russian surplus fully automatic weapon......in and out in the same day.  


You have fun down under, believing that 2+2 really does equal 5.





OTish:  I think I'm going to trade my RIA commander for a Para Warthog and probably end up selling the glock.  It's dreadfully perfect, but I just don't like a weapon that light and toyish.

usually under federal stature you need an ffl license to own an auto weapon tho. not impossible but a bit of a pita
to obtaini hav ehte aforementioned license. but have 7yet to opwn one tho. ( pricy as hell) i can always obtain, an ak, and convert it )
LEGALLY

You don't have to have an FFL to purchase a fully automatic weapon, he!! you don't even have to do it in your state of residence.  Isn't that awesome?  I can buy a fully automatic AK in any state that sells em, but I can only buy a handgun in SC   The form 4 is a joke too, CLEO can be one of dozens of people in any given locality.


Decided against the trade.  I've heard way too many horror stories about Para and the Warthogs.  I couldn't jam my RIA if I tried.  I'll just use that money for a set of Wilson spring, hammer, trigger and sights.

and mine!!  When not riding, shooting:

I have never seen so much ammo in my life. Is armageddon upon us. Anyways is this an expensive hobby?

Yes, it used to be a really cheap hobby all in all, but now since the obamania hit, the gun shows are crazy, and prices have skyrocketed.  As to the comments about that being the most ammo they've ever seen, you haven't seen very many gun nuts then because what I have compared to many is next to nothing.  I could shoot all of that in a few weekends if I brought out most of my guns really easy.  Thats also about $3500-4000 in ammo too.

   dude you have issues  

enough ammo to run a small war and then some

I know a guy that placed an order with a local shop for 100,000rds of .223  that's just nuts. 

yea and are the FBI watching him incase HE starts a smalll war.

I wouldn't worry about him, I'd worry about the lunatics that just may start a small (or big) war 'legally'.


Anyone ready for Korea Part II?!?!?

noway!  The UN will *GASP* sanction him, and all will be well.

the problem now with korea is they they actually have nukes. and are apparently not afraid to use them. i hope honestly this situation can be brought  under control swiftly and tactfully. this will be a strong test for the Obama administration.

NK has had sanctions placed on them for years and yet they still carry a stick

That's just it.  They carry a stick.  They run around waving their stick like it's fuching magic in the faces of countries with machine guns.  It's just going to take one country getting tired of it to completely end this problem.  From a political standpoint, that country needs to be China by using 'forceful words' or Japan by just levelling the damn place.  Of course, Japan isn't supposed to have Nukes, though at this point most analysts agree that they do and are more than ready to use them against NK.

Pakistan could become a problem if the Taliban knocks over a few key military bases, but their Nuke tech is so old school half of it is probably non-serviceable.  There are some very tightly strung wires being walked very delicately right now and most of the country is oblivious

True true true terry.  These times are getting crazy, and call me crazy but at least i'm stocked up and ready to hit the hills if need be.

LOL yes we can SEE that 

I'm trying to trade my G26 off for a P22+cash.   I see .22lr everywhere, $20 for 500rds is a cheap and fun day of shooting and you can get some surprisingly hot loads (and fun stuff like incendiary and tracer) in .22lr

Ideally I'd find someone with a p22 and 5000rds that wanted to just call it a straight trade.

sometimes it's not about the round, it's about round placement.   .22lr is a decent, cheap round from what i understand.

Never count on round placement unless YOU are combat proven. (even then it's not something to rely on)  People do weird things under stress and calming down to get a good sight picture is generally not one of them.

i was speaking purely from a hunting aspect terry.  but for self-dense? no way would i rely on .22. although i've heard it was heavily favored by many hit-men. 

Due to the bullet will play ping pong in your rib cage.
