As long as I don't have to carry the ammo for it.
Great minds think alike I guess. :)
Yep, would have been banned under last Congress' HR 1022, by name, and by features.
Ironically HR 1022 would have also banned the Ruger 10-22, by features.
When they finally bring it out, the next AW ban will be worse than HR 1022 from the 110th Congress.
Any AR-15 type or any AK-47 type can accept drum/snail type magazines of at least 75rounds capacity.
100 round magazine for AR-15 and clones (also M-16).
75 round drum for AK-47 style rifles.
Just do a search on Drum magazine AK-47, if you want an AK drum magazine. Or Beta Mag if you want a 100 round magazine for an AR-15 type rifle. You'll get lots of hits, I just did.
HR 1022 from the last session of Congress would have banned them by name, no special stocks, or accessories requires.
BTW, what sort of stock is that. I'd like to get a folder for my Inland built Carbine.
So the Fort Wayne Po-lice were enforcing the Federal “Assault weapons” ban. I wonder if they were enforcing the Federal Immigration Laws at the same time. Hmmm.
Actually they are not illegal, at least in some states, like Texas. But they are highly regulated, and have been since around 1937 Any built after 1986 *are* illegal for private citizens to own. (Technically, they are not transferable to private citizens, but it amouts to pretty much the same, they are banned.) Thus the supply is very limited, and prices are astronomical.
The big gun control legislation of the 60s prohibited "mail order" sales of firearms and ammunition. Also required controls on sales of handgun ammunition, which included .22 rimfire. That same 1986 law which banned newly made machine guns, also removed many of the worst features of the '68 law, including the ban on "mail order", now internet, sales of ammunition, and those extra controls on handgun ammunition. It also attempted to reign in the BATF, but that didn't last long.
I think someone already did. There hasn't been a visible sunspot in months, lots of months. Last time that sort of thing happened, it was called the "Little Ice Age".
But the sun finally recovered after ahundred years or so (although the climate effects lasted much longer) and went right back to its normal 11 year cycle. (actually 22 years the polarity switches from one cycle to the next and back again).
Well, you know it was me. I keep bringing targets back in with no holes in them, too. Other people have holes in theirs. I don’t get it. Do they buy them that way?
I know I got here late, but I didn’t get beyond this part
when I started laughing so hard I could not read the rest...

“...fire up to 75 bullets at a time...”
It's a Choate. It comes from the factory in straight black ABS, with two thin strips of very coarse checkering on the forearm and pistol grip. I did the wraparound stipling with a woodburner and applied the paintjob myself. Since that photo, I've added a picatinny handguard and some optics...
Bradywatch PING!!!
No, the police have fully automatic weapons.
I'd like to do that too. In fact it's higher priority than the stock. What was the source of the picatinny rail. I've only found one, for the carbine, and they are right proud of it, as compared to similar mounts for the somewhat similar Mini-14
That settles it. I was going to wait a month, but I've just decided to buy my Rock River Arms "assault weapon" and 1000 more .223 rounds tomorrow.
Thanks for the Ping. BTTT!
Laz, were you plinking at the Shuttle again?
