Before the "BIG BAN"

Watch the group buy forum. I'm working on buys for rifles, magazines, ammo, lower receivers, uppers and parts kits. There is a thread there for posting you interests.

AK Mags for VEPR

I think the VEPR II and the VEPR K take standard AK mags. Other variants require VEPR mags. Anyone seen recent VEPR pricing? I'd like to get one prior to any ban that might occur.
 
The Democrats know full well that the AWB cost them the 1994 mid term elections, and I do not think they are stupid enough to try that again

McCarthy IS obviously stupid enough to try it again...!

She's either too dense to realize what the 1994 Ban cost the Dems, or carries too big a vendetta against gun owners to give a crap. I lean towards the second one...:what:

To the OP, I'm in no position to give advice, IMO. I'm just trying to buy an AR P.D.Q., and mags and AMMO as well.

For a "poor man's" answer, the SKS might be a good choice. Fairly cheap, and it's still villified as an "assault" weapon.

How long till the antis get the idea to add in "affordable" as an EVIL, "assault" feature???:barf:
 
An AR recommendation

You can get an Olympic Plinker 16 for about $600. Forged recievers, A2 style. about $30 more w/ SS barrel.
 
I got most of the basics covered in terms of my black gun buying needs when I lived in California before the 2000 ban there.

Recently I cleaned out the safe of a few "non essential" items and used the cash to buy some of the more exotic stuff that will be at the top of the gun grabber's hit list:

PTR-91
Beretta BM-59
ORF Galil receiver which I'm having built right now.

Right now I'm trying to convince myself that I need a semi auto Uzi, but I also really want that Dirty Harry Model 29 S&W I've been lusting after ever since I was a kid. :evil:
 
Well, I was "proactive" and picked up some .223 and 30-rounders for the AR which I HOPE to have soon.

Lucky thing I guess, the mags are backordered. The ammo? I ordered it at around 10 this morning and it's already left the warehouse! :D
 
I am going out within the next week or two and buying a M1A from springfield armory, I am debating right now if I want to get a Mini 14 or an AR type. I also am going to get a ton of mags for both.
If I was 21 I'd also probably pick up a glock with some 20 rounders, but that seems to be out of the question.

Quick question... should I buy spare parts for them? and if so, would you reccomend enough parts to completely rebuild the gun?
I dont know if it will be legal to buy the parts after the ban passes/if the ban passes, and I dont want to be stuck with a busted gun for the next decade haha.
 
Collateral... some spare parts might be legal, but you should definitely get some spares.

Handguards, flash hiders, and other "forbidden features" will not be available if HR1022 becomes law.

I'd also pick up a few spare parts for things that are more likely to require replacement: mag springs, firing pins, extractors, ejectors, whatever.
 
I just want to add that everyone needs to be writing letters to their elected officials.

It's all well and good to buy the stuff you want and be prepared for the worst, but it's also the obligation of every person on this forum to make sure this nonsensical law doesn't happen in the first place.
 
Has anyone noticed that the antis hate W, but they give his administration power to confiscate property and jail people for "weapons charges," and to allow the military and some law enforcement to have exclusive access to power?
How is it possible to be against the detention of "combatants," suspects, and material witnesses, yet give the same government enough power to implement concentration camps or even mass killings at a moment's notice?

Noted, and it can't be stressed enough!

To paraphrase a quote I once heard:

"Prepare for the worst, but work towards the best!"
 
Stop the defeatist attitude. Work to stop it. Wake up 3rd party voting gave us the first CLINTON.
 
I plan to get 40 more FAL magazines, a milled receiver AK (decided I want an AK built to last) a grocery bag's worth of AK mags, and a folding 6 position stock for my FAL. I'm not gonna have the money until the summer, so I hope no legislation is passed in the mean time.

I've got the money for the FAL mags and will be getting those in short order. I might also get a few more 10/22 bannana mags. Even if they don't work too good, they are fun once in a while.
 
Silentpoet you're being silly, congress was controlled by Democrats when both of those laws were passed. Of course a Republican president signed them into law so I will give you that, but if you think the Democrats will suddenly become the party of individuality and see the light when it comes to the Bill of Rights keep on dreaming. If you don't like the candidates run yourself or get involved in the process of promoting a candidate that more closely agrees with you. If you think the whole thing is rigged and you won't be able to change the system or make it better, buy an AK and head for the hills. Who knows maybe one day you will get your own line of t-shirts.....


Meanwhile, if AWB2 passes I was thinking about buying receivers instead of complete rifles and dressing them up and snapping a photo to show their pre-ban configuration.
 
QUOTE]ANd voting republican got us the 86 and 89 bans. No thanks.[/QUOTE]

Wake up!

The 86 was a DEMORCRAT last minute addition. The 86 bill did plenty for us. I for one was sick of recording 22lr sales and keeping the records. Transporting through the freaking anti-gun states became legal so a hunter going from the south to ME would not spend time in Attica. It allowed non-FFL's to get ammo and components shipped directly to them.

The part I hate was the MG ban for new guns to civilians. Regan made a mistake more likely due to his advisors.

The 89 ban was a big help to US makers as was the stinking 1968 act.
Neither of these was as bad as the Clinton Pogrom on FFL dealers and the Assault Weapon act of 1994, the Freaking Brady Bill, Waco and .gov GASSING kids same as another time in history.

Yes all the third party Ross Perot type voters are at fault for that.

Go ahead and vote 3rd party in spite of it:banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
 
Yes we have more republican friends, but don't just blindly endorse voting for some jackass just because he has an R next to his name. I am proud to say I voted for Peroutka in 2004. Any other vote would not have been voting my conscience and that would have been truly throwing my vote away. Bush could not get my vote because he said he would sign an AWB.
