Don't do it mate. If you hold off, I will throw another 100 bucks into COLFO
what we need is something that gets put on firearms or anything for that matter so you cant destroy it like what happens to historical buildings after a certain time
My very sincere condolences mate, they are beautiful pieces of artwork and probably have some history behind them.Quote:

Just don’t do it yet. Fuck them until right at the end I say. I loved the SLR when I was in the green machine.Quote:

Sad Face!Attachment 115819
Still, I imagine Sea Biscuit & Co will have a sad face too once the final numbers come in.
she will just come up with another tax to pay for it, then either get up the duff or married come election time and we will see her face over every damn magazine again (including "best bets")Quote:

Hopefully the pearl clutchers on the forum rest easy tonight.
Seeing that lineup causes me to reflect on how seriously fucked up the legislative changes are. There is a pleasure seeing firearms like those and that pleasure, like the firearms themselves is not in the least bit sinister. To me they are an art form to be admired and enjoyed, much the same as admiring and enjoying Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa in the Louvre. What a fucking mindless shame it is to destroy them in the naive and insanely stupid belief that doing so will make this country and its citizens safer.
Damn @Ryan that lineup brings tears to my eyes
These should be in a museum. Each one tells a story in the evolution of these firearms. While it might break your heart to see them being bulldozed, you want to make sure they are so they dont end up in anyone eles collection or the govt sells them overseas to make some bucks back on the gun grab.Quote:

Then we have reloading, casting, long range and all the associated headaches that go with it, short range fast stuff and the skill the different skill necessary.
Old stuff, and researching what all the stampings mean.
Oh and Black Powder....... dont ever forget that messy friend! so much fun (until cleaning time)
Unfortunately we cannot reload Sabot rounds anymore, and I had not even had the chance to try :(
Iron sights, red dots, fancy glass and all sorts of things to try.
I don't think anyone knows. They're certainly not making them new anymore. But they're so old they are rarely ever in new condition.Quote:

Love your enthusiasm @Rayn
That PE90 was a superb rifle. I just shake my head.
