Why do you think that? I would say just the opposite. At the state level the ‘gun control’ crowd has lost substantial ground. I dont see anything changing at the national level either even if Hillary is elected.
I anticipate there will be a huge demand for more guns within the coming days due to the shootings in Orlando. Right now, there are one hell of a lot of guns that could have/may have stopped that rag head supporter, had people been allowed to carry. Constitutional carry needs to be across the board in ALL states.
Hornady was *buying* the cases *from* the Russians. Since there is now a ban on the importation of Russian ammo parts, Hornady’s 7.62x39 Steel Match is now kaput after they run out their remaining inventory.
Okay, thank for that. My dad has an M1 carbine and a Marlin .45 Camp Gun that’s fun to shoot.
Okay, thanks for letting me know. As I posted earlier my dad has an M1 carbine and a Marlin Camp gun in .45 that’s fun to shoot.
Thanks - I’ve had some good advice on it and I’ll think I’ll pass on it. My dad has an M1 carbine and a Marlin Camp gun in .45 that’s fun to shoot.
The Camp and the Carbine,,,
Good for what they were designed for.
Both highly sought after.
The Carbine was made by Israeli Arms. I’ve seen the .45 Camp gun at gun shows (although not often) selling for around $800 and the 9mm version for a lot less.
Lol.
BLAM!!!

Oops. Sorry, was that your foot?
Add a Mil-Spec 1911 and You are Set!
My dad has a 1911A1 Springfield .45 ... I’ve fired it a couple of times but it’s just too heavy for me. I carry a .40 Smith M&P Shield along with sometimes my Beretta Tomcat in .32
Out of curiosity, what drew you to the Mini-30?
Last gun show I went to there was a vendor selling a new AK and the Mini-30 and was wondering about it. Glad I found out about the ammunition problem. Is it the same for the AK? Do they use the same ammo?
Yes, the Mini-30 uses the original AK’s ammo. However, the AK type rifle is available in many, many more calibers than just the original 7.62x39 one - you can get them in everything from .22 Long Rifle to 7.62 NATO/.308 Winchester. You can even get an AK based 12 gauge autoloading shotgun; so you can get the AK in an ‘American’ caliber if you want. Just avoid the ones in 5.56 NATO/.223 Remington. There is no standard magazine type for that yet and the action generally doesn’t like working with the profile of that cartridge anyway. If you want a 5.56 rifle, get an AR type as that’s the parent platform for the caliber and parts are plentiful and cheap. If you want a reliable AR type that doesn’t require a lot of faffing about and fanatical cleaning, get one with a piston operating system or buy one then convert it to piston.
We have an M1 carbine and a .45 Marlin Camp gun but I wanted something for myself other than my .22mag auto loader. I do carry a Smith .40 or a Beretta Tomcat as my personal protection device or my PPD as I call it.
