One that won't get banned

That is everything. The Liberals already targeted mauser and a ruger no1.

Fuck'em and get what you want. They already made you a criminal back in 2020+.

Might as well lean into it, because some cunts would rather have you vilified and steal your property for votes - rather than do the right thing.

Yeah, I genuinely hope that everyone who buys one of these things knows that they're going to be in illegal possession by the end of the year if they want to keep it, but there are millions of gun owners and, unfortunately, plenty will buy these not knowing what they're getting into.

The endgame is always full stop to any civilian gun ownership. It's only a matter of time 😥

Some people gotta learn the hard way. I learned it ten times the past few years. Without a serious win in or court or in the house, its gonna be 2500 for a range trip or two then banned. Crypto owners didnt listen when they were told either.

So many other guns and gear to gamble this kind of money on at this point. While poly is an MP and the libs are in power there is no such thing as a safe semi auto.

Fwiw I like the look of both. Fugly is beauty all its own.

That's why I got a lever. Not a "scary black gun" and used in sport shooting/hunting. Holds more than 5 rounds and plenty of calibres with stopping power. I could be completely wrong but my hope was to get something that won't be near the top of the "to be banned" list.

I already have a semi auto (SKS) and I will Bubba that if I really need to. I'd rather spend money on kit and such. Like you said couple range trips then banned isn't good, you're only as good as how much you get out and shoot. You're not getting many reps in when the rifle is sitting in your safe.

The more people that buy them, the less power they have over us
