So what purchases will you be unable to make before 10/1?

[clay_shooter]

Really trying to get the PS90 sometime Sept. so otherwise... Ill be on the list for that gun.

I've never seen one in a store in MD

 

[Jimbob2.0]

At this point

PS90 and a Mini 14 folder.

Everything else............got covered but it will suck if something happens I need replacements. All the insurance in the world cant solve MD idocy.

I would love to get a Springfield M1A but as one of my favorite IPs stated "I could get you a unicorn before I could get you one."

I just bought one from J&G sales. Used law enforcement 18 inch barrel and synthetic stock. It gets here Friday.


Price with shipping $1221.00


Already bought a walnut stock for $70.00

Me, too. Went for the Ultimak upgrade since it was cheap and I was planning on using the rifle scout/bush style (ie, not as a precision rifle). I heard the stocks are really beaten up, so good call on getting a newer walnut stock... I've got plans for an Vltor myself, maybe with an Eotech 552 XR308 riding along. That's definitely more like 2014/2015, though...

Honestly, it's looking like my "purchases I would like to make eventually but can't due to SB281" are going to devolve down to the AR-180B, AUG A3[1], and a Daewoo with 1:7 twist barrel. None of those are any great loss, maybe excepting the AUG.

Pretty much all of those qualms will go away if it turns out that SBRs are exempt, too.

[1] Still not really convinced this is a clone of the AUG on the list, especially when taking AR-15 mags... but OAL kills it anyways.

out of curiosity, why an AR-180B and not an AR-180? the magazines the issue?

 

[Ranchero50]

Maybe some hi cap 22 pistols, but I'll just pick up an HBAR if I feel the need for an AR.

I want a SR 1911 CMD but no real rush.

Correct. I don't have enough time in my life to deal with trying to mod AR-15 mags for a "real" AR-180...

LOL, I could get you one somewhere around the 29th, but it would be pricey... Mostly because I don't really want to sell it... However, everything has a price!

 

[tsmith1499]

M1A and an AK47 just don't have the money for those.

Too many firearms, not enough money!! Let's hope somewhere down the road this POS legislation gets repealed. I know, wishful thinking!!

SPAS12
Garand
M14
M1 car
Keltec ksg
Some type of 556 bullpup

 

[Stevearado]

I wanted to get a Nodak Spud retro lower a M16A1 clone, but they will not available until December. However, I got a of 80% lower coming that I will try to get reprofiled to A1 spec.

 

[erwos]

Garand
M1 car
Keltec ksg

You'll be super-happy to hear that none of these are banned, or even currently regulated.

Also, the SPAS 12 is widely reputed to be a POS in actual functionality, so no big loss there.

Oh, and the M17S and F2000 should still be good to go post-ban, with the right barrel length.

 

[AssMan]

Just did the paperwork on a Thompson 1927. I still have no freaking idea how or why this made the naughty list, but...it's mine forever!

Suck it Owe'Malley!

[miles71]

Put the money on the counter for a new m&p 40 today. Nothing else I want will be effected by oct.

i hear you, but i am going to be honest, something about an AR-180 with a plastic receiver and a non-folding stock just seems ... wrong.

then again, i have an AR-180 in my "pending 2013 transfers" stack, so i figure to be spending 2014 screwing around with a sack of AR-15 magazines.

 

[BBQMAN]

Is the 5.45 worth getting into at this point? I'm trying to decide between an AK74 or something else. The non-folder mini 14 will be 'ok' after Oct 1 right?

The price of 5.45x39 tracks 5.56x45. As 5.56x45 comes back down to normal prices, expect corresponding drops in 5.45x39. The very worst case scenario is that you wind up having to buy commercial ammo, which is not a big deal. If you wanted to hedge, get an AR-15 in 5.45x39. If it ever goes crazy, you can swap easily back to something else.

I have an AK-74, love it, and have no worries about future ammo availability.

Yep. And it only applies to the Mini-14 specifically anyways, and not the Mini-30; if Ruger were to ever get off their ass and release a "Mini-15" or "Mini-47" (which is what I'm waiting for), you'd only have to comply with the copycat laws (ie, no folding stock and flash hider together).

Are you thinking a Mini-47 would be in .308? I would be into that!
