(VA gun laws) wisest way to acquire In Virginia, does one have to register a gun purchase not done through a dealer, or do a background check? I assume records of FFLs are kept, as are those of background checks... I looked on TheHighRoad and could not find one for sale nearby, so the crux lies within the answer of the following conundrum: should I hasten and do an FFL, or should I wait and possibly stay under the radar, even if I must pay for the luxury. Also, I shall go to the gun club this weekend; I sent an email to the president but have yet to get a reply.

Re: (VA gun laws) wisest way to acquire Private sales, no paperwork, federally....you might check locally. See also Packing.org Personally, I don't like the paperwork, but I also take the position that once bought, what's mine is mine.....and nobody is getting it unless I consent.

Actually packing.org is not what it once was, there have been a few of the state moderators (or whatever their title is) that have had problems updating the site and I've noticed the site is up/down but mostly down lately. Like all things web it evolves and I'm working on finding a few 'replacements' for packing.org but here are a few so far. http://handgunlaw.us/ http://www.gunlaws.com/links/ Forgot one, although the organization doesn't synch with gun owners their information is accurate and easy to read: http://www.stategunlaws.org/ VA Laws http://www.stategunlaws.org/viewstate.php?st=VA

Re: (VA gun laws) wisest way to acquire In va a non-felon can buy a gun from a private person..face to face, peovided both parties are Va residents. I usually just look at thier drivers license. Sometimes the other party wants a reciept.

Right on. Maybe I'm a moron but I still don't get why so many survival-minded individuals eschew sales on paper with the ferocity that they do. Yes, paperless is better, no question. But man, if the paper trail has become the means through which the State has decided to track down weapons and take them away from their owners, shouldn't that be an indication that the time has come to USE them?

Re: (VA gun laws) wisest way to acquire Check the classified ads in the paper. Also, post a WTB (Want to Buy) ad on TheHighRoad. I've had good success there. Additionally, an occasional gun as will survive on CraigsList... if you know how to search for them. You can also do a WTB on CraigsList.

Hmmm, sounds unappealing. I was hoping it involved sitting on my arse &/or goofing off like my current arrangement...

Uh oh. Don't say that. Our resident GIM open-borders profiteer-traitors will see these words and seize upon such comments as yet another opportunity to try and cleanse their filthy consciences with more "our economy will crash without barbarian invaders" mantra.

Too true. I've got a friend who has a framing business, and he has been driving from Greeley to Cheyenne for the past few weeks. It seems that the housing slowdown has caused for an exodus of... :ahem:... cheap foreign labor, and now general contractors are actually paying MORE because they have to give honest wages to honest citizens.

Re: (VA gun laws) wisest way to acquire Got a response Quote:
You have received a new private message at THR from BradleyW, entitled "5.45 ammo". This is the message that was sent: *************** I have 3200 rounds of ammo and 4 bakelight mags I would sell for $375.00. Let me know if you are interested. Thanks,
5.45 ammo is the same as 5.62x39 as far as AKs are concerned? Also, what are bakelight mags, and what do they do, and is the price reasonable for the lot?

Re: (VA gun laws) wisest way to acquire CDNN Sports has a bunch of good deals on pistols; used Berretta 96F is selling for $299, while used Glock 22 is selling for $369. Catalog(wont download with firefox, use Internet Explorer) http://www.cdnninvestments.com/dowournewcat.html They do not list pistol prices in the online catalog above, but they do in the mail-order catalog that is sitting in front of me. If you want to know any prices, let me know the page number. http://i8.tinypic.com/6nr1qfr.gif

Re: (VA gun laws) wisest way to acquire Still not sure what to make of that PMed offer; any help would be appreciated

Abouthadit | 11-11-2007 10:41 PM
Re: (VA gun laws) wisest way to acquire 5.45 is NOT the same as 7.62x39 the standard AK-47 round. Never heard of a 5.62, better check your numbers. The 5.45x39 is the AK-74 round. BTW the 5.45 is the caliber, the 39 is the length of the brass in mm. Always check your receiver before attempting to fire any ammo through it. If not sure, or if the receiver is not marked, DONT SHOOT IT. Good luck. BTW: bakelite is a type of material used to manuf the magazines. Usually an AK-74 round.

bl96S5eu | 11-12-2007 10:04 AM
Re: (VA gun laws) wisest way to acquire 1 Attachment(s) Skirnir it looks like you might be getting confused as to what calibers apply to what rifles or you just typed the wrong number. Since a picture is worth a thousand words here's a picture of the different calibers for size comparison. Sorry for the extra caliber but I didn't have another picture handy. See pic below: Left -> Right: 5.56x45 (ignore), 5.45x39 (AK-74) and 7.62x39 (AK-47)

skirnir | 11-12-2007 02:59 PM
Re: (VA gun laws) wisest way to acquire Thanks for the advice; I didn't reply to the offer as it was the wrong ammo. Besides the AK itself, and the 7,62x39 ammo, what components should I buy for the AK? In addition, should I go ahead and just get an FFL transfer, as I cannot find anything locally?
