New ones:
Pre-ban Argie FMAP FSL.. all matching serial numbers
Post-ban enterprise Arms lower/ Stg58 upper
This raise the FAL collection to four adding to my Commercial Belgian FN FAL and a semi auto Stg 58.

I watch mostly vintage stuff locally. I'm on the fence over a brand new CZ 97 B but still looking at a Ruger for new. Jerichos by the pallet for cheap. Old and new wheel guns I would love a cutey Colt .380 Gov no one is loving these past months and is getting dusty in the store case.

I have a couple M9's, a 92fs police and one of my unicorn handguns... a 92FS Centurion. I assume you have read a lot of Col. Coopers writings if you are a scout rifle fan... |

I've always been a big fan of the 92. I already had a 92FS, but wanted an M9 since Beretta released the civilian version. I've also been eyeballing the Langdon 92 Elite. Col. Cooper is probably my favorite outdoors/gun writer. He was "tacticool" long before it was in fashion. I am a huge fan of his scout rifle concept especially the long eye relief scope. It works great. Especially incorporated into the M1A. I really like that shorter barrel. |

Old and new wheel guns I would love a cutey Colt .380 Gov no one is loving these past months and is getting dusty in the store case. I'm more old school as well. Since I live in the PRK we have a handgun roster to deal with and severe limitations on semi Auto rifles. I have to wait for private party sales of off roster handguns. All rifles need to be compliant with assault weapons laws now. Other than older featureless rifles...nothing more to buy. |

I suppose I should also include a HK VP9 sk that I technically took delivery of during the lock-down...although the purchase was planned a couple months earlier.

Sadly, all of my guns were lost last summer in a boating accident. I shouldn't have brought them with me, and now they are gone.
And I can neither confirm nor deny if they were ever replaced.

It's a sellers market right now. I've been grabbing deals here and there. A certain rifle went from $569 when I bought it two months ago to $825 now.
Cheap Russian ammo that was going for $.22 a round is now $.30. Thankfully there are smaller outfits around that haven't jacked up their prices, so they've been getting my business and I've been undercutting the bigger chains when I have things to sell and still making money.
Sadly... my father-in-law and I went out on a boat at some lake I can't quite recall.. huge lake.. lost them all.

I have a sporterized US Springfield Model 1898 Krag (cut down into a faux carbine) on layaway. Half paid off.
I ordered a Tristar S-120 blue steel CZ75B clone. Hasn't arrived yet but I'm looking forward to getting to the range with it.

No new guns, but I started buying reloading equipment since there’s high demand for ammo and nary to be found in some calibers.

Most Democrats don't want your guns; we have our own. That was then, this is now...LMAO. That is a nice but worthless throwaway line about Reagan and the Mulford Act. You really need to pay attention to what has been and IS going on in California, Virginia and the democrat controlled House of Representatives with HR5717. If you vote democrat and own guns you are both a hypocrite and intellectually dishonest IMHO. www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/house-bill/5717/text?r=1&s=1The Bad/Ugly:*Basically the Feinstien federal AWB, but now with a license component to it (10 years/license), unless the state sets up its own license program. AWB has a grandfather clause. Some C&R AW's are exempt.
*Bans you buying ammo for a friend federally, requires background checks for ammo too, like we already have.
*Makes 30 day wait federal, C&R owners exempt, and police.
*Overturns the PLCAA for handgun/revolver/AOW manufactures.The very ugly*Suppressor ban with no grandfathering clause.
*Requires registering current AW's through the NFA.
*Bans all mags over 10 rounds (.22 tube rimfire exempt), bans belt fed weapons, bans guns that can accept mags made for it that are 10+ rounds.
*15-20 years in prison for refusal to comply with the laws. |
