    Bring the SKS but slip a light slip type cover over it, only take it out fully when you are in your hunting area.

    Most trampers will not even recognise an SKS as a semi. It's no AK47 and it's not an M16, and does not have a big banana machine gun magazine - they'll just notice that and no more.

    And pull down your beanie over your forehead so they don't see the big swastika.

    I emailed my AO this exact question and she gave me the biggest non answer she possibly could. She has no idea.

    Just paint the black one if you are concerned. A nice medium green.

    I say go for it, unlikely you'll be mag dumping with it anyway. The biggest worry would be how scary, black and tactical it looks.
    Will be interesting to see how they go about treating the sks in the coming weeks, my ol 7 shot might be 2 shots too dangerous :|

    Serious: Girlfriends Magic the Gathering cards, stupid "racing" seat with shitty three point harness thingy. Blindfold is in the naughty draw, not pictured.

    Less serious: Guns aren't my only hobby friendo, Wuces bitches best be wearing jimmies.

    Fuck me boys why is .303 SP so expensive?

    Really the question is why is Gun City ammo so expensive? $45 for a box of 20? Outrageous. They're lucky I need it by Friday. I'm tempted to just go old school ghetto and file down some FMJ in to soft points. Probably a bad idea though.

    I have some .303 laying around that you can have for nothing if you want it. Definatly have one box maybe a bit more. Dont have a .303 anymore so not much use to me.
