I'll probably check it out at some point.

Trapdoor Springfield or Mosin come to mind. Reason being, ammo is still readily available in most gun stores or even Wallyworld. Many antique firearms use obsolete ammo that would be difficult to obtain.

I have a policy when it comes to guns. Always buy. Never sell.

That was a hell of a deal, even back then. Now they seem to go for $500 and up.

They wanted to take it away, but decided they couldn't because it was a stick, and not a reasonable facsimile of a gun.

Ha! Nahhh, I didn't fuck up. It was deliberate. The whole point of the thread title was to troll. A rifle with a functioning bayonet mount, flash suppressor, and a "tube", in original configuration. The point was to deceive people here into thinking it was a semi auto (which would be...

So you are saying I shouldn't have called my stick an "Assault Stick"? :)

Well, the joke is on them if they think a bolt action Mauser with a bayonet and a flash suppressor is really an Assault rifle. ;)

Work with me. lol It's all the Spanish had in the 50's until they could get enough CETME semi-auto rifles for the troops.

LOL, that is a friend shooting it.

Quick vid from today.

Cops already lose enough guns to criminals when they get stolen from parked police cars. This is just guaranteeing a source of free guns for the gangbangers. Idiots.

I bought one to stash away for my VEPR in 5.45.

I could get 100 sealed tins of 7n6 if I wanted. NY prices ($240 or $250 ea., iirc), but I could get it.

Huh, how about that. I guess I should check mine. For diamonds, or something.

You can find a couple for sale on GB. Search for Spanish FR8, FR8, or sometimes it is listed incorrectly as FR-8. This one was a consignment sale, listed for $550, but I talked him down to $500. It came with the sling and cleaning kit, but it didn't have the bayonet. I found a bayo for sale...

Thanks! And thanks for the video. I hadn't seen that one yet. I had been avoiding getting into Mausers in general, because I didn't want to get into another caliber, and I know there are umpteen variations of them. When I first saw this rifle in a fairly local gun shop, my first thought was...

Interesting history on these rifles. There's a pretty good wiki about them... FR8 - Wikipedia From what I've read, these rifles were bought from the Spanish about 2005 or so from a major importer when they no longer had a need for them. From there, they were sold pretty quickly and probably...

Nope. The FR8 is built on the large ring Mauser.

I'm at a 4 yr old's birthday party, so I'll have to post the pics later when I get home.

7.62 CETME is lower pressure and is for the FR7.

Ding ding ding!!!! FR8. Ohh and I wish I had the CETME, but that would be illegal in original configuration in this state. :(

Lmao.... No, it shoots real bullets. It's not a Garand either. And, no the attachment point for the bayo is not a magazine tube. Would it help if I told you it was Spanish? ;)

No, it's not a Mossberg shotgun, or FN-FAL.

LOL, can't a guy troll? I've gotta run out for a while, but I'll give you all another hint before I go. It's in 7.62x51 Nato/.308, and it is not any kind of AK variant.

All original configuration, unmodified. Here it is with the bayo attached to the tube and flash hider. Anyone care to guess what it is, before I post more pics? To those I've already told what rifle this is. Shush! lol

This isn't Trump's doing. It is entirely a decision made by the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). I would imagine if Trump did something to try and reverse it, the media would be all over him with more bull crap about Trump and more connections to the...

it's right in the SAFE Act, lose your CCW permit, and they take ALL your guns. Yeah, just another reason why I won't get a handgun permit in NY. Wouldn't be able to carry during work anyway. I'm not playing that game. Moving out of state in a few years, and then I'll get my permit. Without...

Probably this in 9mm. I want a PCC that my wife will be comfortable shooting in a home defense scenario. She doesn't like shooting shotguns, or anything above .22 caliber for that matter. lol

I was working down that way today, and stopped in for a visit. Nice place!

Socialism at it's best!

I knew this day was coming, sooner or later. This is one of the reasons why I bought my VEPRs. The price will go up on them now, if you can even find one. Latin American Herald Tribune - US Adds 38 to Russia Sanctions for Ukraine Invasion

I heard some of it while in the car today. It is obvious that Comey speaks out of both sides of his mouth, to put it mildly.

Ancient Chinese dish called Pew Pew Splatter.

And the other four would have been charged with his murder.

That would be an awesome upgrade. Lmao...

ahhh, just noticed this thread.... Kiss my assault stick, Andy-boy!

You had it exactly right here. The whole law is a joke, and we all know it.

No, I am not confused. I understand what you are trying to say/do. I have read this thread several times over. Regardless, your re-definition of capability is made up. Capability and ability mean the same thing. They are synonyms of each other. (I won't bother to quote the definition of...

Then I would have to disagree with this statement There are plenty of people who have converted their original configuration SKS to accept (detachable) magazines.

Does that include an SKS in it's original configuration?

Just so we are clear, what do you mean by fixed rifle? Do you mean a rifle with a fixed magazine?

Yes, the paranoia. Just like the paranoia of the anti-gun crowd that would be triggered by the mere sight of a loaded magazine. In some parts of the country, just possessing a magazine, and only a magazine, is enough to get you arrested. As if you can hurt anyone with it, without a rifle, yet...

This thread is still going? Notice how the law didn't state: "A SEMIAUTOMATIC RIFLE THAT IS DESIGNED TO ACCEPT A DETACHABLE MAGAZINE". That is really what they really wanted to pass into law. Think about it. So, this is why they wrote it as "HAS THE ABILITY TO ACCEPT". Except they can't...

Hahahahaha! What are they gonna do? Require us to submit all our guns for mandatory trigger testing? Gee, I wonder what the compliance rate for that would be...

Wut? Who bought it? ;)

Oh what the hell... IBTL.

Ahhhh bullshit! Put a thread protector on the muzzle, pin the mags to 10, fix the folding stock, and then a kydex wrap around the pistol grip to the stock for good measure, and you are GTG.

Obama's (and Hillary's) Cock Holster!
