It was an PSL I think? 7.62x54, closer to .308 than 7.62x39.... EDITED: Not RPK, I can never keep my ruskie gun terms straight.

1. If it's inoperable, why the trigger lock? 2. Is that magazine pinned at 10rds or whatever their arbitrary max capacity is? 3. All I have to do is ask the police before I break the law and I can get off scott-free? :rolleyes:

I find it helpful. Suppose I am interested in a certain gun or need advice on parts/repair. If I see that someone has one in their sig, I can send a PM to them to get info straight from the horse's mouth, rather than start a thread where anyone with or without experience with that firearm can...

Cool but priced to die an early death. Very cool even.

"Best" and "Most trouble free" are sort of mutually exclusive, especially if you define "Best" as "Garnering the highest price." A local auction house is your best bet, or find an FFL who sells on GB and have them do the leg work via selling on consignment.

Well, my only carbine other than my Saiga is a 10/22. Yeah, its mag is loaded and ready for critters big and small, but so are all the others.

:facepalm. By that logic, a denial is a trip to jail. Hope there are no felons that happen to have the same name as you! :rolleyes:

As for the 7.62x25 blurb, read HSO's link. It explains that he modified a Kalishnikov to fire that cartridge.

The argument of having to aim a shotgun always kills me. Yeah, the pattern at 25 feet is about an inch or two, but are you telling me that I can't point and shoot a man sized target at that range? :scrutiny:

12 gauge? No. I have only 20ga now, so I use that. Looking to buy a 12 or 2 here shortly, since the tactical shotgun fad seems to be dying out. Deals are starting to show up on lightly used HD shotguns. Next, I wait for folks to realize they don't need all these ARs that they rushed to buy...

Okay, that diagram made me laugh out loud. :D Of course, replace "shooting mini 14" with "You are roadchoad" and it would still be accurate...:rolleyes:

Probably not what you want to hear, but Minis of that era were not known for accuracy. What you found out group-wise is fairly common.

They haven't tripled in the same period as .22 has. I wasn't around in the 70s when the oil crisis happened, but I imagine it was a similar scenario, and wreaked havoc on transportation. The entire auto industry shifted its production after that. Point is, if this happened with another...

So, when water, gas, food, and medicine triple in price, or the only options are 93 octane, Perrier, pate, and name brand pharmaceuticals, you guys will pay without complaint?

Thanks. Any more details that you can remember? Type of gun, etc? Not interrogating or wanting to argue, just curious.
