I want it beacuse I live in a bad neighborhood and I just want it for target shooting too. I was thinking maybe a military surplus gun. Ive heard good things about lee enfield’s. But I just wanted some other options.
Hell even a good boltaction.
Okay man. I shouldnt have the right to defend myself in my own house beacuse im 19 and cant get a pistol till im 21? I just want something that will have man stopping power thats simiautomatic.
Thanks you guys are a great help im leaning towards either a pump that holds quite a few shells or a mosin nagant.

More of an opinion question really but I really want some advice on what my next gun should be. I currently have three Remington 870′s (2×12 Gauge Super Magnums, one 20 gauge), a Norinco SKS, and Remington 700 in .270 with an older Leupold Vari-X scope hanging on my bedroom wall. I’m nineteen years old and live in Virginia. The only guns that technically belong to me are the SKS and the 20 gauge 870. The rest all belong to my dad and I hunt occasionly and have all my duck, rabbit, squirrel, and whitetail needs covered.

My question is what type of firearm should I get that is under 0-0 in price. I enjoy all kinds of shooting but am most experienced with shooting milsurp rifles and 100-200 yard hunting and target shooting. I was strongly considering picking up a Mosin Nagant just for the sake of adding to my ComBloc collection of military rifles. Next would be the AK which i could potentially get both for 0, 100 for the Mosin and 500 for the AK. I have also flipped around the idea of a Springfield XD or shelling out the big bucks and building my own AR for 00. I’m open to any suggestions from those of you who have a favorite gun or have faced a similar situation as me.
Also in VA it’s legal for me to posses a handgun just not to purchase one. My dad would be more than willing to buy me any handgun I wanted and I have numerous friends I could have buy me ammo. So handguns are part of the picture as well
I cannot afford to pay 10,000 dollars plus all the title II paper work and the 200 dollar tax stamp for an M16 and as much as I love the SCAR-H i believe they cost about 2,500 to 3000 dollars. Remember 0-0
I have six 22lr’s. A pump action, a semi auto rifle, two bolt actions, and for pistols a revolver and an automatic. Also no more shotguns
Seth just reminded me I’m also very interested in a marlin lever action or any other brand someone can recommend

I have the infamous package deal Remington 710 with the synthetic all-weather stock, steel bolt action, Bushnell Sharpshooter 3-9x40mm optics, with a .270 caliber barrel. I had bought a bi-pod for it, a camouflage sling, and the only ammunition I use for it is Federal Premium Boat-tails 130g soft point. I have experience in this weapon. I had shot my first deer between two ribs, through the liver, then the heart and in between two vertebrae of the spinal column between 225 yards away in kneeling position based on what I observed when I cleaned him. ( That may not seem far but it was my first hunt. ) If it isn’t suitable, what do I need to change on it? I am trying to get a good rifle out of my .270 for long distance target shooting.

I live in Minnesota, and am 18 years old. Ever since I was about 12 years old my uncle has taken me to a shooting range about once or twice a month to fire some of guns (primarily hand guns – m9, m1911, sig sauer, glock-19 and assault weapons – AR-15, AK47), its been one of my favorite things to do since then. I absolutely love firing these weapons at the gun ranges, its a hobby I’ve enjoyed for a long time. Now I’m 18 years old and I’m interested in purchasing an "assault weapon" for target shooting.
I’ve taken a firearms safety class.
However there are a few things I’m afraid will prevent me from being able to purchase a firearm…The two biggest are probably that I spent 35 days in a drug rehab clinic for heroin and benzodiazapine addiction, and I’ve been diagnosed with depression.
Will my time spent in rehab and depression diagnosis make it impossible to purchase a firearm?
Thank you in advance for your answers
Thanks for your answers
I chose to go to rehab (was sick of being dependent on a chemical to live) so no, I wasn’t admitted there under court order or anything
I’ve never been charged with a drug related offense of any kind.
thanks for the replies!

Hello,

I enjoy target shooting but I rarely take my assault rifles though. One of them was purchased by me ‘pre-ban’ and the others I purchased while on vacation in other states. Does anyone know the penalty if you get caught shooting an assault rifle in California? What about the one that I bought back in the 80′s? Is it okay to shoot that one even though it is an ar-15? Just wondering if anybody has dealt with this before. . . . Thanks, Randy

I’m looking to fill my gun cabnit with a few surplus rifles(mostly target shooting and maybe varmint hunting). When I think of surplus rifles I think of the mosin nagant, kar98, springfield, lee enfield, sks, ak47, and other popular military rifles. I want reliabilityy, cheap ammunition, and decent/good accuracy. Whats my best bet? I would like to pay between 0-0 for each rifle.
