I think I have enough Mosins for now:

Whoa, nice collection.

How do you like the PU scopes on the Mosins? Did you install a bent bolt or were you able to keep the straight bolt?

They're original so they came that way from Russia .

I've had a "resniper" as well that originally was an Ex-Sniper that I had someone drill the holes and install a bent bolt for me. Looking back I should have waited until the influx of Mosin Snipers in 2012...but back then no one thought any were coming in. The crude 4X scopes in these rifles are pretty handy. I like em!

Very nice, I'll definitely need to mount a scope and get a bent bolt now.

That SVD looks amazing. Too bad they are prohibited in Canada

It's actually a Romanian PSL, which is just an AK on steroids that shoots the same round as the Mosins/Dragunov. It's definitely a head turner on the range.

If you're dead set on putting a scope on a Mosin I'd highly recommend you try and find an original Mosin Sniper. I think most of the stores like AIM and Classic are sold out of them at the moment so I'd try the 2nd hand market.

They'll appreciate in value more than a "replica" would.

Yea, I should probably go that route. Getting a good condition sniper variant isn't too hard in Canada.

Colt is in serious trouble, financially.

Damned dude.

:thumbsup::thumbsup:

Those things shoot straight ?

I guess they would as a few listed as sniper rifles.

Texans can get guns and ammo with no sale tax along school supplies = http://www.nbcdfw.com/news/local/Se...302015101.html?_osource=SocialFlowFB_DFWBrand

Not yet. Did that bill ever make it through the House?? Anyone know?

I think I have enough Mosins for now:

One for every room in the house. That's great.

That's the trouble with cheap well-made guns - hard to stop buying them.

How poorly run is this company? The gun market has been hot for 7 years and they are on the brink of closing down?

Surprisingly or unsurprisingly, quite poorly.

Oh yeah, they're more than accurate. Definitely fun to shoot too

Best thing about them is following the "Buy them cheap, stack them deep" rule. Some of them have gone up over 100% in value from when I purchased them less than 5 years ago. C&R Guns are definitely a good investment.

I make sure to shoot them all .

Damn, I was just thinking the other day that I should to get an "authentic Colt" 1911. I guess the used market will be around even if they die...

Colt has lately not been that amazing. I see no reason to buy a new colt. Older colt 1911s will still be around, but the prices might go up a little.

Else everyone is making GI model 1911s.

Well, I could not resist trading a revolver for this beast this evening. Should make for a good pocket carry, no?

Anyone utilize a gun trust? I've been thinking about it to avoid all the hassle of the fingerprinting, CLEO sign-off, etc of the class III stamp

I have, but I haven't really done much with it. I put it together to make sure my NFA stuff can be easily and legally sold after I'm dead.

I bought the silencerco easy trust, for $129, and it is unbelievably easy. I had the completed trust about 10 minutes after checking out on their website, and just had to get it notarized with my wife (since she is a trustee).

I have already made a purchase with it, and everything went smoothly.

Appreciate the advice. I was thinking of going a similar route. I haven't decided on any title 2 weapons yet, but if I do I'd rather simplify the process and have my fiance and father as trustees so they can use them without my having to be present (as well as have access to my safe which has other non weapon items in it).

I hate you.

A Deagle in 50AE is definitely on my do want list, but whenever I have that much money to blow I'll probably custom order one in titanium gold tiger stripe, because why the fuck not?

Never understood the obsession with DE - and I've fired one. They're notoriously picky with ammo, overly complex and heavy. In .44 mag, I'd take my model 29 *every* day of the week over that.

A range toy, I'd take it. But there are other range toys I'd like

It's a lolwtf range toy. Literally the only reason to buy it is for the lulz. Why else would you get it in gold tiger stripe?

I probably won't get one any time soon... needs to buy lots more Glocks first. But it's on the list.

I feel somewhat similarly about a Five-seveN, although it's perhaps a bit more practical than a .50 DE; but I still want the 5.7.

Guys you've helped a bunch with picking out firearms in the past - most recently a shotgun for my needs.

Coming to you now asking about .45 ACP. I've already got 9mm and .380, but out of the .45s I have shot in the past, I liked shooting them the most. I'm having trouble decide what I'd really like to have. On one hand, I love 1911's and their history... their looks and their proven use over time. However, they generally have lower capacity and from what I've read, can be finicky at times. So, my other few choices were maybe a Glock 21/41, Sig 227, Hk45, FNP45.

I know that I'd like a full size gun, so 4+ inch barrel only. In my great communist state of CT, guns can't hold more than 10 rounds, so I think Glock 21 might be out by default, unless I get it in the 10round version (I think I can). I also think that FNP45 holds 13 by default, too. Something I need to consider.

Any other models I should be considering? If it matters, for 1911's I've been looking at any model that has a rail, 5'' barrel and non ambi safety, and full length guide rod. There's a bunch to name but I'm sure I don't need to list them all for you.
