Shitpost / Memes Got a PAL? Buy a FAL.

I think that pretty much sums up the sentiment of the week.

Record pre-orders have likely been made.

Risky af $2,400. More power to all those who are willing to drop this chunk of change on this thing for a few months-to-a-year of shooting.

Despite me wanting a thing like the Makasi, even just to have it, it would be so financially irresponsible for me to drop THAT much money on a thing... let alone something that would be OIC'd within a year or two.

But hey, some dudes and dudettes make a lot of money (or have poorer spending habits than me haha).

I got my eyes on some bolt-actions that appeared at Shot show to make their way here. Should be a lot safer

To be fair, this already has an FRT. the crypto didn’t iirc. If it’s using its own proprietary mags, it would theoretically fit into the bullshit rules of C-21.

It was designed pre-C-21, so that doesn’t matter.
