Feets / Collection / My build 8 months with pal
before y'all ask the gsg 16 was purchased my my father to become mine when I turned 18, but how did I do, just got my SKS on Saturday, I have a 10/22 coming in next week. what's the next gun I need for the collection, was thinking a lever in .357 so I can also shoot .38 for cheap, wanted sum like the FX-9 or a handgun but that's not allowed anymore, but still like buying guns to shoot.
lmk how'd I do

It's pretty great, and behind me is around 6000 rounds of ammo, that's another couple 1000. To round it off I even have a girlfriend

OP is a bot, you would have gotten away with it if you hadn't been so greedy/s
Looks like a nice spread, hope you are enjoying.

Lol, I am love learning about different actions, gas systems, and taking guns apart. And maybe I don't need another gun (after next week's shipment) maybe another gun needs me!

What's your budget on levers? s&W has some beautiful ones but they are up there in price.

Thinking max 2000 after tax, I enjoy my Turkish m4 but lever gun i want a quality one since the action is complex, and also a side loading gate is a must

2 grand is a healthy budget, Chiappa would fit that budget, Made in Italy, tons of models, wood, chrome, tactical, 357, 44, 45-70, 45.

I have a Canuck wrangler and although it runs perfectly I wish it had a side gate. I would love to have an lpvo on it but with top ejection it's a no go.

Churchill 612, with 11.9 inch barrel, fun time to let family shoot 3 inch magnums out of, it was my first shotgun cause it was 320 after tax

Just got the Henry X and I couldn't be more pleased with it as my first lever.
Lots of aftermarket parts to unleash your creative side. Side gate. Tube loading still an option as well. Lots of m-lock, under barrel rail. Side ejection so you can put an optic anywhere you want on top or just use the stock fibre optic sights.

That gsg is no longer yours once your dad moves away or dies unfortunately as the transfer was prohibited before you got your license

u/MEmERDuDe21 Apr 10 '26
Yea sucks it never was mine, but what is the actual protocol for gun owners with new prohibited guns that are moving?
1
u/FrozenReesesPieces Apr 11 '26
I think same as always, until the collection time or amnesty ends, store as they were already being stores, if your moving, call your cfo for the authorization to transfer (ATT) and update your address.
And I hope to god some laws change and you can keep these. Beauties, if it were me, id bury these things and tell them government you have no idea what he did with them as they passed.

Be careful with the GSG mp5 clone, the barrel on it is very thin and I've had them blow out near the chamber. I wouldn't shoot stingers through it just to be safe. Mine was an older model that looked like an mp5 sd. But I've seen these up close and they appear to have the same construction.

What are you going on about? No one is shooting their gsg right now. FFS, you people just like to stir up trouble for no reason.

How is letting someone know that a gun is paternally dangerous with certain ammo causing trouble? I don't get your comment.

u/Reasonable_Hall2346 Apr 11 '26
The gsg-16 was prohibited a few years ago. Nobody can legally shoot them anymore.

Im not a fan of the homesteader since I could have gotten something way nicer less than 2 years ago, and I like lever actions cause it's cool

I think with the money wasted on that Soviet pos rifle you could’ve bought two rifles.. hopefully you didn’t pay more than $350 .. anyone who’s says they’re worth more than that is moron

Yea it was 650, the only other not shotgun or 22 you can get in semi auto is a m1 garand for 3000, or the homesteader so, and yes my gas tank has basically doubled I dont want to fill it up either
