The idea is to go tactical.

In reply to Anti-stance:
He actually named it. The "Storm Rifle" was the worlds first true assault rifle. He had halted production at one point and then authorized it again later. LOADS of politics revolved around the production of this particular weapon and it really did change the way everyone armed their soldiers for the battle field.

Whatever you do with that, don't go around real Kalashnikov collectors with that crap. They may not say anything about that Crapco stuff to you, but they will be laughing on the inside.
Crapco is the gun equivalent to the ricer aisle at Autozone

From what I saw, one of the cops recognized it for what it was, and the department is letting her sell it for fair market value.
Would have been a damn shame to see that one get crushed.
In reply to Will:
That is pretty cool.
So, when can I expect the first issue of GRF to hit the shelves? 
I'm sensing a market opportunity here. Mosin is the answer.
In reply to Grizz:
That is not a bad idea actually. Can cover builds, budget weapons, competitions, home gunsmithing stuff and reviews.

Not really my problem, now is it?
In reply to rebelgtp:
That was actually my first thought as well.
We would have to come up with our own equivalent of the challenge 
So, Mosin = Miata, Remington 700 PPS = P71, Colt 1911 = Cherokee?
So then the SIG Pro is like the 944?
What would be the grm equivalent of the AK and AR?
In reply to rebelgtp:
teh E36M3?
In reply to JohnInKansas:
berkeley
FAL would equal the E36 M3

I'm referring to the off chance they impose bans again.....I doubt this as the firearms industry is one of the few that is doing well.
The good news is, DSA makes everything for the metric FAL in the US, the bad news is.....they're based in Illinois.
the FAL is on my want list though a PTR 91 will be in my safe come January as I already have 20 mags waiting at home for it and it will be my birthday present to myself.

Well, the AK gets used everywhere for everything, gets beat on and still works so I'm guessing wrx or something. There isn't a motorsport out there without a Subaru in it.
I dunno bout the AR.
Grizz wrote: I dunno bout the AR.
Hmm... does the same thing as the Subaru, but costs 3 times as much...
Audi Quattro?

No way, the Mosin would be the P71. Why? It's a gun that's only real feature is how cheap it is.

i would've said toyota hilux
In reply to Strizzo:
Actually now that I think of it I think the Hilux fits the AK best. Damn near impossible to kill.

Oh yea, bans won't happen, but I'd put money on the UN treaty being signed making it harder to export weapons. It will effect prices. It may make US made firearms cheaper though...

I'm agreeing with Hilux. Cheap and easy to maintain. hard to destroy.

No, the 1911 would be the GM pickup truck. Longest lasting, most dependable firearm at the range.
