Do you plan to purchase more firearms under Obamination ? Ok, let's assume Obama wins tonight. How will this affect your immediate future gun purchases ??? Vote accordingly and/or comment below.

Re: Do you plan to purchase more firearms under Obamination ? I'll be buying a couple more long guns, maybe even one today. Problem is that I live in CA so my choices are limited. I can buy as many guns as I want, just so long they are the type that can't hurt anyone!! :rofl: No hi-cap mags or assault anything for me, at least not legally. Oh, and I have to wait 10 days, and I can only buy 1 handgun per month. I love living in a free country that respects its own Constitution. :banghead: Oh well. At least I have plenty of BBs.

Re: Do you plan to purchase more firearms under Obamination ? I sort of doubt I'll buy anymore.....quite satisfied with my current single shot .22.....Stevens Mdl 5A....my dad bought it used off some guy in the late 50's for 5 bucks, and it still works just fine.

igorthesmall | 11-04-2008 10:56 AM
Re: Do you plan to purchase more firearms under Obamination ? All my guns, ammo, and mags were lost in a tragic boating accident. I certainly wont be buying any more. Guns are useless old relics, if I need protection, I just dial 911 and wait for the trusty police to come to my aid!

Yeah, and don't forget the 500% tax hike on ALL ammo. Where I'm at, sales tax is about 8% so does that mean 40% tax on Ammo ??? :banghead: :rant: :s10:

Re: Do you plan to purchase more firearms under Obamination ? Microstamp a cap and ball unit.......not really being serious, just mouthing off. No, I'm not going nuts on G&A, already did that. Have the capacity (proven) to whip up old timey propellant. If I decide to hunt again, it'll be w/ BP stick. As for defense, it might be time to consider a (blech) Taz... Taz..... Tazer. We might not go dark ages on G&A under you-know-who. If we do it might be time to get alternatives while the getting is good. Remember the "hi cap" revolvers that were coming out in the '90's? Might look to pick up one of those to circumvent the rush.

Re: Do you plan to purchase more firearms under Obamination ? The DSA is a better quality FAL and will give much longer life than any century cast receivered rifle. With quality you may spend more but times are hard and you also may pick up a great deal when someone is struggling to survive and needs the cash to every day expenses.

I recently purchased a case (1000 rounds) of Hirtenberger 308. :565: I,m sittin pretty for when the Osama youth comes to take our weapons. I have 200 rounds of the Steel cased 308 for sale if your looking for any. Its linked for use in a m60 or the Minigun if you happened to own one. Avoid the tax get it now. BTW I doubt Obama can tax private party sales of the stuff but the price will go up accordingly Quote:

AD: Every one of those micro stamping bills I've read that have been introduced in State legislatures ALL had virtually the same language.....2 year exemption on non-stamped stuff, and ban on it after that.....no grandfather provision. I suspect however has the stamping technology is the one running around the country lobbying states to introduce this crap, and none of it has gotten out of committee as far as I've heard.....but all it takes is an anti-gun leaning Congress, and enough lobby money, and presto-digito....we have a national bill.

Anything made by Century Intl Arms (CIA) is HIGHLY suspect. Run away...run away! I've got a Century L1A1 Sporter. This is a "politically correct" 1995 version, built on a CIA metric upper receiver, combined with mostly Brit mil-surplus inch pattern parts. As supplied by CIA, headspace was VERY excessive, to the point where I'd see casehead separation (a bad thing). I fitted a new locking shoulder to fix the headspace, but this should have been done by Century. Then there's CIA's AK-style rifles, well known for canted front sight blocks (the barrel & front sight is rotated left or right, so the sights don't line up). Some of the better FAL gunsmiths (Gunplumber, for example) refuse to work on Century-receivered rifles - too screwed up. FALs are good, solid rifles, and the magazines are (OK, used to be) relatively cheap. Prices on used mags have jumped from $10 to $15 over the past 3 months. I guess if there's no other option, go with Century. You might want to check on their return/exchange policy ahead of time. Good luck!

Re: Do you plan to purchase more firearms under Obamination ? MK that's real nice, Here a pic if my DSA FAL for those that are considering buying a FAL its a nice one but Nothing like my FN 50.63 I have a feeling that Rifle will skyrocket in value after the election. BTW the FN 5063 is the only FN made FAL design that is legal in Nazifornia. MK ya want one ? changes to date More soon to follow as the change from the original 16 inch SS fluted / ported barrel to a 18 inch bypod cut std barrel. http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...LES/DSAFAL.jpg It originally looked like this. http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...FLES/FAL_1.jpg Quote:

That baby has a wicked rail on it great for dressing up and it fires the 7.62 round which is devastating. Cheaper than dirt has 20 round of brass cased Fiochi going for under 8 bucks. Jump on it. T

I looked at the 7.62x39 AR platform at one time it looks awesome. How is it finding magazines for these things tho? I have a newer reliable mini-30 that shoots great accuracy wise (till it heats up, then it spreads out a bit) and an SKS as a backup so for now I'm good with that caliber. I'd be interested to hear how this shoots when you get it.

Well I'm in California so I'm limited to 10 round mags, and it doesn't accept 30 round AK mags which I've got that are pre-ban.... From my understanding the mags are on back order right now, but if you do a search on youtube for XCR 7.62 there are some videos of it being fired in full auto and the rifles is extremely stable... BTW SAM, I've already got an Imbel that's Cali converted....

Re: Do you plan to purchase more firearms under Obamination ? In the process of completing the set currently. Bought an SKS 7.62x39 (Norinco Military Type) today. Looks like a 1959 Type 56 from what I can tell. I don't like the stock (folder that's been frozen in the out position), I'll be changing it, but I do like the uppers. All #'s match on metal parts so it's original other than the stock. 2 30 round bananas and spike bayonet come with. I have some personalizing to do but it's small stuff.

Re: Do you plan to purchase more firearms under Obamination ? I ordered a case of PRVI 5.56 M193 55GR AMMO from Wideners.com a couple weeks ago for $350 shipped. I went to the site today to order another case of the same stuff and they were sold out. They did, however, have cases of Prvi 5.56 M855 FMJSCBT for $385 shipped. So I bought some of that. I also ordered myself one of them .50 Beowulf uppers for my AR and a few rounds for it. Will probably buy more rounds later once funds allow for it. I'm buying what I can, when I can, until we no longer can. If they want it, they can come and get it. They may get me. But not before I get at least a few of them. :36_1_30: Quote:

Re: Do you plan to purchase more firearms under Obamination ? [quote=TechGuy;1397550]Called 4 local gunshops today to put in an order for a new black rifle. The almost identical quote from all was: There is not a black rifle (their words) to be had within 500 miles. If you want one, come in and put money down, otherwise get out of the way so others can purchase. quote] My suggestion: If you are looking for an AR15 style of firearm, I urge you to Get registered on GunBroker.com and buy a STRIPPED receiver. They range in price from $100 (before th eelection) to $200. Then, go to http://www.blackthorneproducts.com/ and buy the rest of the gun for $500 and then put it together yourself. You could also go to dsarms.com and purchase a gun online if you are thinking of the FN style gun. www.ptr91.com will also let you buy online if you want an HK style of gun. Hope this helps!

1959 has 6 digit serial numbers and no Chinese characters look for the /26\ symbol - stands for Jianshe armory. More info here: http://www.yooperj.com/. If it is a 7-digit serial number then add the first digit of the serial number to 1959 to get the year of manufacture.

Re: Do you plan to purchase more firearms under Obamination ? I'm set. I did buy some more high-cap mags and magazine springs and floorplates a few months ago, figuring there'd be panic buying closer to the election. What worries me is the ridiculous microstamping bills that keep resurfacing. As someone else said, they all impose severe penalties for owning non-microstamped ammo. This might be the first battleline. I think they'll come for our ammo before they come for our guns.

Perhaps I'm a little out of the loop on this one, but doesn't microstamping have more to do with the firing pin than the ammo? I mean, the thing that actually microstamps the ammunition is the microscopic engraving on the tip of the firing pin, right? If this is the case, then I see no need to worry about unmarked ammunition, since the rounds are only marked as they are spent. If that's the case, I'd just assume buying extra firing pins for my guns. That, and a couple revolvers :wink:. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...t_NanoTest.jpg Please, correct me if I'm wrong on this.

If this is the case, then I see no need to worry about unmarked ammunition, since the rounds are only marked as they are spent. If that's the case, I'd just assume buying extra firing pins for my guns. That, and a couple revolvers :wink:. Please, correct me if I'm wrong on this.
You are correct about the firing pin, and I have heard rumors that they want to microstamp brass as well...but I am not sure that this is anything but fear tactics...it would add prohibitively to the cost, and legal liability would be difficult to prove in a court of law.

That's a 1956 Sino Soviet he's showing with the 6 digit #. I think the Sino Soviet was only put out for 2 to 3 years with Soviet supervision. Then the numbers went to 7 digits (millions), with the first digit indicating the number of years added to 1956. I have seen that elsewhere and also have read some of Yooper's stuff. Notice that the one he shows that starts with an 8 is a 1964. 1964-8=1956. So the 8 at the beginning of the 7 digit number is the number of years after 1956 that it was built. Then once it reached 10 years from '56, they went to an 8 digit number with the first two adding to 1956 to indicate year model. ie, 1966 model would be an 8 digit number beginning with 10xxxxxx. What he shows, actually agrees with my assessment. Mine is 3xxxxxx, indicating 1959. I believe that may have been the first year they (the Chinese) manufactured them without Soviet supervision. Perhaps '58 but I think '59. Either way, it indicates to be an early model of sole Chinese manufacture. And the milling also indicates that sort of age, in that shortly after, they started stamping the receiver. Also notice that he shows a late model with sheet metal receiver. Mine is a 7 digit number that starts with 3. From all I have read, that indicates 1959, although it seems nothing is absolute..

Re: Do you plan to purchase more firearms under Obamination ? I pretty have all the guns I need, you can really only shoot one at a time anyway. There are a few more I want, but nothing that would be affected by a AWB. I still need to pick up a nice left handed, scoped, bolt action rifle. I need to replace my Ruger 10/22 target model I just sold with a regular 10/22. I voted that it would faze me too much, but I will keep stocking up on highcap magazines, more 30 rounders(for AK and AR), new Bulgarian copy of the Chi-com 75 round drum, another AK receiver and another AR lower. The biggest thing for me will be keep stocking up on Wolf ammo, I feed all my guns Wolf. I'll also need to picking up Remington bulk 22LR ammo.

Sorry about that... I meant 1956. I have a 1956 6-digit chinese that is not sino-soviet. They were only produced at Jianshe for the last few months of 1956. The Chinese still refuse to release any production data on the SKS as a matter of state secret. :confused_ma:

Dont you have to keep your guns extra clean after you feed wolf through them??? T

Re: Do you plan to purchase more firearms under Obamination ? The Remington bulk .22 LR is dirty also. CCI Stingers and Velicitors are the ticket. Cost much more but you get what you pay this time around.

Not really, but Wolf is a little dirtier than other brands. I mainly run Wolf through my rifles, I reload ammo for my handguns. My Bushmaster AR15 H-bar is the only gun I clean on a regular basis(after each trip to the range). Otherwise, I don't think I've cleaned any of my AKM's ever. Usually just spray them down with Gun Scrubber. I shoot with some guys that won't shoot Wolf through any of their guns. I do buy Wolf handgun ammo once in a while, mainly when I've been slacking on reloading. Wolf isn't corrosive, so nothing special has to be done. But if I'm shooting something like some old Bulgarian corrosive ammo through one of my Mosin's, I bring some Windex with and clean the bore out as soon as I'm done shooting.

Thanks for the response SLV. Yes, that's why it's so confusing with some models. They are so secretive. Kind of adds some intrigue though and gets people investigating. :rofl:
