It's a Finn-captured 91 - the Finn VKT barrel and the SA stamp give it away. Worth a bit more than $100 if it was in original condition. Unfortunately, your stock has been chopped. The rear sight is from the earlier 91 model, not the 91/30. BTW, 1941 is the barrel date, not the rifle...

Nothing new - back in the 1980s a dealer in the St. Louis area was giving away Winchester shotguns if you bought a car...:)

Reports state he came armed with a large caliber revolver; after killing the first officer, he took his sidearm and proceeded to the council chambers.

So...what's Lasik typically cost these days, preferably not by one of these "fly-by-night" operations? The eyeglass solution is getting old, and I noticed my new insurance offers Lasik discounts this year...

Several years ago a dealer friend of mine retired from the business and gave me a large box full of misc. loose rounds. Strangest of the bunch and for a gun I'll probably never own - blanks (or some say harpoon firing rounds) for a 10.15x61R Jarmann rifle. Also got some .22-250, .38-55, US...

Winchester had a Model 55 .22 rifle that was single shot, firing from an open bolt. Load from the top, eject from the bottom. Not entirely sure if it had a fixed firing pin, but it's non-NFA.

And the brewery tour is free, with complimentary samples at the end! :D

Correct, but all it takes is a C&R FFL to permit a MO resident to own Title II items (both C&R & modern), so you can't really say they're banned here - just one extra hoop to jump through. Anyway, I'm surprised St. Louis City would welcome the NRA's business, and I'm surprised the NRA would...

Title II firearms aren't banned in MO - just ask John Ross. OTOH, suppressors are. What I find odd is St. Louis City (as opposed to St. Louis County) hasn't allowed a gun show in years...

And a follow-up to your reply... :) The shipper can't put anything on the package that would identify it as a firearm: No common or contract carrier shall require or cause any label, tag, or other written notice to be placed on the outside of any package, luggage, or other container...

The thread on the possible Miami Vice "flub" got me thinking. Several years ago I saw a movie on TV where one of the investigators carried a Thompson/Center Contender. For the life of me, I can't remember what it was. Can anyone help? It looked like an early-mid 1970s flick, possibly made...

Going back to the first question, the UPS hub near me has 100% package inspections - you're supposed to bring in your shipments unsealed for them to inspect your packaging. So, it's kinda impossible to not tell them you're shipping a firearm.... And there is something in the ATF regs that...

Beats me - I was just pointing out the statute. IMHO, I think a lot of Missourians are unaware that a permit is needed for private transfers.

Yes, he would have to get a permit, unless it's an antique or C&R. Check MO statute 571.080. Without a permit, you both could be charged with a misdemeanor. from http://www.moga.missouri.gov/statutes/C500-599/5710000080.HTM: Transfer of concealable firearms without permit...

A bit late on the Darwin Award though - it happened in 1990! :D

They're listed on the list update, available on the ATF website: http://www.atf.gov/firearms/curios/0301to0603update.htm

My first mail-order after getting my C&R FFL was an M91 Mosin-Nagant from Century. Cost all of $34.95 back in 1997. My first C&R purchase ever was a 6.5mm Carcano of some sort - I think it was an M91/24 or something like that. Got that back in the late 1980s.

I think I saw the same video with the Second Chance guy. Not only did he take a pistol bullet, he also had the host of the video take a shot from an FAL at a distance of 5 feet or so - wearing a higher level vest, of course. That was impressive.... I believe the video was called "Deadly...

You say you're in New Jersey? I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but a C&R is pretty much useless for you then. Something about NJ not allowing you to recieve interstate shipments of C&R firearms. I don't know the ins & outs of it, but here's a couple of threads at Parallax Bill's...
