Lets make no mistake if they can pass it they will; however, they are politically astute and will no doubt complain of "republican obstructionism" as the reason for any failure. I see these efforts as testing the waters and I would expect to see some executive orders passed against imported...

This. I'd also add in Hart. http://www.hartbarrels.com/ar-15.php

If you're looking to spend around $800 or so, Spikes and S&W do make a few models that are very nice for the money. ARs are very lego-like so the prices will vary depending on wants, needs and even taste. Would something like this configuration be what you want? Spikes carbine length...

Depending on your budget, try looking at these barrels: http://www.6mmbr.com/barrels.html Quite a few of those make barrels for .308 including Hart, Broughton and Lilja.

Saigas sure do come out real well when converted to its natural form. My Redjacket built Ak102.

The Katana is not my cup of tea and the price does drop my jaw as does quite a few AR15s from mass manufacturers: however, I don't see too many other AR15s are the market that weigh UNDER 6 pounds( 5 pounds 9 ounces) that was built by a professional that can handle the stresses of Carbine...

I'd take a suppressor for a shotgun any day. Course I would want a SBS Saiga S-12 to go along with it. And a MD 20 rd drum. This one individual over on silencertalk.com describes it just right. Sounds like a ton of fun. :D

The AWB DID cripple the antis. By Clinton's own admission Gore lost 5 states because of the 1994 ban so yes the ban was devastating to the antis. As far as the NRA's position on assault weapons and other "hot guns" thats still a matter of concern and aggravation for me. In all honesty the...

If price is no object and providing you can legally possess SBR in your local, why not consider a AKS74U Krinkov type? Or if this is going to be your only AK, why not go Russian? You could purchase a Saiga and have it converted to any number of configurations such as this AK105 (wood one is my...

All I needed to know of the absurdity of Australian gun laws I read right here. God bless our fellow gunowners in Australia, I truly feel your pain. http://theknightshift.blogspot.com/2007/05/megatron-is-one-banned-bot-in-australia.html

Notice that the study does not mention anything about criminal background. How does one know if this is not criminal on criminal crime of which consists 70% of all murders?

Warsaw Pact and Russian firearms are built to last. They do have some shortcomings but the Russians value reliability, dependability and durability over ergonomics and accuracy. Russians expect their rifles to fire when the trigger is squeezed. AKs in particular have earned its reputation...

The "pre-ban" just means it was a pre-89 import. After 1989, all the imported AW style rifles had bayonet lugs, flashhiders, and stocks replaced with thumbholes stocks. I'd get the Type 56S as its no longer importable plus it is a great rifle.

Homebuilding is dying out given that the barrels are no longer imported. :( There are US companies that will make you a barrel but it does drive up the price a bit. I miss the days of $69.95 like new AMD65 kits.

Try these guys also http://www.shilen.com/pricesRifleBarrels.html http://www.compasslake.com/ And wouldn't you know it Lija has Ar15 barrels in stock! http://www.riflebarrels.com/products/ar.htm Be sure to shop around though as AR15 parts are still trickling in. I'm definitely...
