Does Anyone Else Here Collect Guns?

There are definitely bid bots at work there. I have scored some fantastic deals there on guns and ammo, but I would recommend bidding conservatively.

Got it, thanks guys. Definitely makes the experience I had last night make much more sense.

A ā€œTommy Gunā€ in .22 L.R.? For a price under 700? Smells like too much fun.

If I ever bought a machine gun, it would be an American180. As it is chambered in .22 LR I would actually be able to afford to shoot it.

So, what are we going to do about the pistol braces?

What braces?

I sold the only one I had 5 years ago. It sucked as a brace and it sucked as a stock. I wasn’t crazy about the CZ scorpion it was on either.

But, looks like the braces are now worthless. Going to be a lot of bag holders. Seems as if all of the AR & AK pistols that are being sold with or without braces will have to be converted to SBRs, and may not qualify for the amnesty. A lot of small shops will have inventory they can’t move.

ATF celebrated felony Friday pretty hard.

Guessing there will be a series of lawsuits in an attempt to get the ruling thrown out. Who knows how successful that’ll be.

Wait…are those banned now? I MAY know someone who has one.

Not banned but any gun with one is now a SBR under the NFA according to the ATF.

So if the Micro Conversion Kit is just sitting empty by the bed, it’s fine until the pistol is inserted?

Technically no.

To have the items intended to make a sbr with intent to do so, you’d need to have filed for the stamp and keep them apart until the stamp arrives or leave it all at a FFL. That is the 100% legal answer.

Now, that isn’t practical and there is no way they’d know you have it so….

I probably won’t be able to afford one, but I eagerly look forward to @Bauber adding one to his collection and flexing on us poors!

I didn’t have time today to deal with Cabela’s crowd and staff, but I think I’m going back tomorrow to get an idea of the condition of a Beretta Cheetah they have in the used section. It’s priced pretty well compared to what’s available online, hoping it’s in decent enough shape to just take it home.

Lots of fun stuff released at the Shot Show this year, including a Henry semi-auto 9mm rifle that uses Glock mags. Think I’ll skip it, but pretty neat.

Popped in today and pulled this thing apart right in the show room haha. Pretty dirty, but overall it was in decent condition. Going to clean it up tomorrow afternoon. Very small spots of rust on the slide but nothing deep set yet.
