I assume so and would bet on there being some after people realize what's happened, but there will be no more federal registry. Generally speaking anywhere that's popular for hunters would be fucking stupid to place any restrictions on them because of how popular they've become.

I definitely like Sako and Steyr bolt guns, but my dream "hunting rifle" is one built on a Mauser controlled feed action. I like Winchester Model 70s alot, but always wanted a nice European Mauser-style bolt rifle. I had hoped to one day buy a new CZ 550 Safari, but sadly CZ discontinued their Mauser-style rifles and I don't care for the new rifle line they replaced the 550 with. And I don't have $13k+ to buy a new (or used) Mauser 98 safari rifle.

Does anyone know what weapon is being fired in this gif?

It has state preemption built into the bill iirc. Fact check me. I know many states do ban these if not nfa registrered. In theory with state preemption federal law prevails

My bank account is already in tears at the thought of SBR's being deregulated.

It gets rid of the registry and also removes the tax as a backup plan.

Fucking about time.

I really hope it passes. There is really no legitimate reason short barreled shotguns and rifles should be restricted the way they are. Same with sound suppressors. While the 2A absolutist in me says the same for machine guns, I can also play Devil's Advocate enough to see why normies would still want restrictions, though with us being in the days where every nigger has a "GLOCK wid da switch and da tiddy hangin' off" flashing it around in homemade rap videos on Tik-Tok, it really is a senseless restriction as well. But getting SBRs/SBSs and cans deregulated would be a huge victory. Hopefully it passes so it will be that much easier to SBS and suppress my Origin 12.

Personally what I'm looking forward to most is being able to get an 11.5 inch CAR-15 clone with a moderator without bullshit paperwork or an additional 200 dollar tax.

Keep that right next to a 20 inch AR M16A2 clone and I'll be fucking set.

gentlemen, i have a 1998 USP .45 that has now reached:

28,150 .45 ACP
9,335 .45 ACP +P (specifically a mix of 185gr golden sabers and 200gr speer)
2,000 .45 Super (mix of 230 and 250 gr, not sure the exactly split but a lot of starline homebrew and winchester loads with like a box of buffalo bore thrown in)
100 rounds of .460 Rowland

original recoil spring, although i have a spare one. just started getting inconsistent ejection on my usual loads (.45 +p 200gr underwood JHP's) so new recoil spring time it is. after detail strip, other than being a bit dirty here and there, it's got a lot of life left in the bore and frame. photo is during the take down to illustrate wear a bit.

"But Bikelock, why do you like the USP family tree so much?"

This. This is why. A hammered fired Glock.

SA/DA gang for life!

If there's one handgun I would lay on a table for a first time shooter to hold and fuck around with it's the USP a solid foundation on the basics and they're built like bulldozers coming from a guy who owns a KE stamped .40 cal version with the bored out barrel.

I'd love to see the Ithaca Roadblocker return to the market, though I know that'll never happen since there's virtually no demand for them. 10ga has all but gone the way of the Dodo bird due to modern shotshell design making 12ga nearly equal to 10ga.

if you've ever used 12 gauge 3 1/2 shells 10 gauge will feel better on the shoulder.

Ten gauge has the distinct advantage of people seeing the titanic shells and assuming you must be the biggest badass in town for shooting it. They're usually too intimidated to shoot it and find out that it's not too bad, once you learn that it's easier to just ride it out than to try to drive it like a rifle.

You mean an additional $400 in tax stamps. $200 for the SBR, and $200 for the moderator since they're considered sound suppressors by the ATF/law. I'd have a hard time deciding between an XM177 or a Colt 607. Both are so Cold War sexy. I think I like the stock on the 607 better.

Edit: if SHORT does pass, I definitely think I'll get the stock for my FK Brno PSD. They sell one that attaches to a metal bracket at the base of the grip/mag well and folds up when removed. Kinda like the stock for the Beretta 93r, but the way it attaches is different. Not really worth it to spend $200 and file a Form 1 to convert a normal style pistol to an SBR, but totally worth it for the stock to be considered just a normal accessory like they were back in the early day of auto pistols like the C96 and Luger. Especially with the range and accuracy potential of the 7.5fk cartridge. The PSD and Field Pistol were both designed from the get-go to optionally use the stock.

Hodge "Mod 3" rail system. They want $1500 for it when for $1375 you can buy an LMT MRP, get a CHF-CL barrel of your choice and send it to D. Wilson for conversion to the MRP Interface for $1375 before taxes and shipping. And with that you get an actual monolithic rail

The LMT isn’t worth it in my opinion. I’ve had two of them and they don’t really accomplish anything that can’t be accomplished with a quality rail for less cost and more parts compatibility. The SOLGW drive lock rails are more rigid than a LMT upper.
