[QUOTE=Sector 7;48469667]in canada, many assault rifles are prohibited by name - but on the flip side you have a ton of cheap imports (including lots of badass autoloaders like the SVT40) that aren't priced affordably in the US.[/QUOTE] We can only have 5 round mags though which is pretty dumb unless you buy something that can take AR-15 mags and load a a mag intended for use with an AR-15 pistol in it or buy a mag that fits in an AR-15 but is designed for a larger round than .223 and load .223 rounds in it. Both of those are fully legal and influence me more towards getting a Type 97 when I get my firearms license. Also the prohibiting firearms by name is kind of dumb. The HK G11 is prohibited by name in Canada. Who the fuck is going to ever find one of those for sale, let alone buy one?
[QUOTE=purvisdavid1;48471495]Needs a bullet button (something that makes the mag release only work with the aid of a tool, making it legally a "fixed magazine rifle" by CA law)[/QUOTE] Is that still needed?

[QUOTE=Ridge;48472000]Is that still needed? It doesn't have a pistol grip, threaded barrel or bayonet lug, so it [I]should [/I]be allowed as-is...[/QUOTE] Forgot about those facts. But still, if you wanted to add those features, you'd have to also include a bullet button to make it CA compliant.

I sort of wish they come out with a 54R AK, not like an SVD(Although that would be nice), but more closer to a normal AK. This one here is a Vepr rifle, with aftermarket parts of course. I am partially saying that because I have tons of 54R rounds due to owning a Mosin. [img]http://www.rrcfirearms.com/prod_images_blowup/Tact-54r-3.JPG[/img]
There are plenty of 54R AK platform rifles, there's not much difference between them and adding yet another one wouldn't do any good. I'd rather see an accurate SVD clone as there are none available in the US other than a very small amount of Norincos, Tigrs and CIA bringbacks, which are all thousands of dollars each.

They do need to make SVD's, since you are right about that, they cost a lot.

Not very good with all of this gun stuff - I'll probably start small either way and learn.
Too bad I can't buy them in Maryland anymore. Oh well, I already have a Serbian-made AK so I'm good.

If they weren't, I'd own an AK already.

[QUOTE=BFG9000;48484316]Well assault rifles are banned here in America too unless you have a special tax stamp or something that you have to go through a long and arduous process to obtain.[/QUOTE] Have to be made before 1986 also. Which makes them very expensive. A full auto AK is 11 grand.
There's a company that built and registered a fuck ton of transferable receivers before '86 and is still finishing them and selling them, you can get them for a bit under 8k which is the lowest I've seen any transferable full auto.

Considering in terms of parts and function, an open bolt blowback full auto is as basic as a gun can get... yeah. It's a lot to pay for what it is.

Those are still produced and still available, he's annoyed because he thinks there are only picatinny rails on the gun. How do you think those attach to the rifle? Either he's wrong one way or he's wrong the other take your pick. [QUOTE=Oscar Lima Echo;48485562]Are you high.
