Misc What’s your one firearm that got away?

Whether it was because the model ceased being produced, it was OIC’d the night before or a gunpost deal that fell through.

Those have been banned since the 1970s, but we were at least able to get the Type-81 and CZ-858 as semi-auto cope-AKs until the LPC and their Poly/CGC lapdogs fucked everything up in 2020.

I remember people liked to shit all over the type 81s calling them slightly fancier sks's at twice the price.

Now that we only have SKS' and no type 81s, I really miss mine. Getting an SKS setup to use reliable, detachable mags looks expensive and requires some work.
