Thanks for the reply's guy I did not know it wouldnt fit because I've never tried to put one in my gun before. [editline]08:06PM[/editline] O and I love the rat-shot for my 22, fun times in my barn and those damn rats.

[QUOTE=EurofanBMW;19849752]Funny you say that because kel tec actually makes POS compact pistols. My kel tec p3at had a ftf almost every fucking shot so did my other models.[/QUOTE] I have a little P3AT, never fails to fire, inaccurate as all hell but it's fun sometimes On those .22 shotshell rounds, be careful, we were shooting off some of it at the range, one piece of the shot ricocheted and i had a bleeding nipple shortly thereafter.

[QUOTE=Bean-O;19879686] If there isn't much rust it should probably be fine. You can have new firing pins made and the gunsmith can inspect the weapon while he's at it. I say make the pins, have it inspected (maybe test-fired as well) and then hang it up on the wall. That way you don't run any major risk of damaging by running hundreds of rounds through it on a regular basis but you still have a shotgun just in case Of course this is assuming you can legally reactivate it to working order. Do you live in England? [/QUOTE] I live in Australia so it shouldn't be too hard to get the proper documentation. I think I'll go for your idea since I plan on buying another gun anyway.

Standard off-the-shelf 12 gauge could in fact cause a lot of damage if the gun it is old enough.

[QUOTE=varj;19884306]Firearms are so cheating. Seriously. Every one of us has 2 ULTIMATE Weapons; Fists. You can kill another man with a single blow even.

Anyone have experience with Saiga rifles? Ironically the cheapest AK on the market is a slightly neutered AK-100 made in the same factory by the same company that makes AKs for the Russian government. Than and they're California legal.

My favorite is the MP5

Another question - Anybody know what I should pay for a decent condition SMLE that hasn't been sporterised? I know there are a few Aussie gun owners that have posted in this thread before.

A local gun store recently had an Ishapore Enfield in 7.62 NATO. I wish I had bought it because I find for the most part that .303 British is outrageously expensive here.

You can probably guess why.

[QUOTE=Bean-O;19892433]Anyone have experience with Saiga rifles? [/QUOTE] Just ask DrMortician. :v:

Yes but he owns a Saiga shotgun.

Saiga rifles are just the authentic russian made AK47 with a few neutered features, but otherwise, they're the highest quality AK47 on the market, even surpassing arsenal. Just slapped some G10 grips on my 1911, I'm really bastardizing it now... I should get it refinished some time soon. [img]http://i48.tinypic.com/m9agsm.jpg[/img]

Do you guys think I should get a Glock 18 or a p220? I found some random shop that sells both for the same prize.

[QUOTE=Maximo13;19898509]Do you guys think I should get a Glock 18 or a p220? I found some random shop that sells both for the same prize.[/QUOTE] You mean 19? P220 hands down if they're the same price... No question.

Nope, 18. Mind you, I am not American, nor live there, and I am allowed to own automatic arms. The 18 comes with an elongated magazine, though.

[QUOTE=Maximo13;19898656]Nope, 18. Mind you, I am not American, nor live there, and I am allowed to own automatic arms. The 18 comes with an elongated magazine, though.[/QUOTE] Get the 18 then, ffs ahahaha. That's probably one of the most amazing things you can possibly own for ANY gun collection.

[img]http://i48.tinypic.com/m9agsm.jpg[/img][/QUOTE] Looks great except for the compensator. Compensators on 1911s make baby Jesus cry :frown: Also, debating between a Saiga 12 and a SPAS. I can get the Siaga for about half the price of the SPAS, but the SPAS has a much higher "badass" factor IMO. It even comes with the rare-as-hell hook stock. Im trying to tell myself to go with the Siaga though. Mag fed seems more effective is pretty much any situation.

[QUOTE=Timebomb757;19898901]Looks great except for the compensator. Compensators on 1911s make baby Jesus cry :frown:[/QUOTE] It's necessary for safe extraction of the .460Rowland. It prevents the barrel from unlocking until the pressures have dropper to safer levels.

[QUOTE=DrMortician;19898778]Get the 18 then, ffs ahahaha. That's probably one of the most amazing things you can possibly own for ANY gun collection.[/QUOTE] Or, I buy both.

Magazine fed shotguns are great on paper until you go to buy magazines and find out they're $50+ each. I'd go for the spas, but really it's a waste of money. Just get an 870 or a 500, both will serve you better in the long run. If my sagia wasn't so desirable right now I'd ditch it for one.

[QUOTE=Maximo13;19898509]Do you guys think I should get a Glock 18 or a p220? I found some random shop that sells both for the same prize.[/QUOTE] I've gotta see pictures of that. I just find it hard to believe you walked into a shop and there's a Glock 18 just sitting around for purchase.

[QUOTE=actionhank;19899188]I've gotta see pictures of that. I just find it hard to believe you walked into a shop and there's a Glock 18 just sitting around for purchase.[/QUOTE] Well, not really a shop... More like illegal alley shop... But, hey! It is Switzerland!

[QUOTE=Maximo13;19899247]Well, not really a shop... More like illegal alley stand...[/QUOTE] This story is getting less believable...

[QUOTE=actionhank;19899315]This story is getting less believable...[/QUOTE] Fine, do not believe it, but here in Bern, we got more Glocks than balls an average citizen has.

[QUOTE=Maximo13;19899357]Fine, do not believe it, but here in Bern, we got more Glocks than balls an average citizen has.[/QUOTE] So...3 guns per man? Also, provide pictures once you get this Glock 18.

Yep sounds like bullshit.

Just because there are nearly no Glock 18 in America, and because they are expensive does not mean it is bullshit. America has already fucked the world enough. Why are Glock 18's rare in America? Example: Would you find a SCAR-H in India?
