I've got a .308 (love the .308's), 9MM Beretta, 30-06, 25-06, .12 pump action, .22 LR, and a .17 pellot gun (great for pop cans in the back yard.

Plans are to build an AK47 in class this coming year, and then maybe more... who knows Also have plans to pick up a .50 LR for screwing off.

I own a large number of rifles, pistols, and percussion revolvers. I also pay close
attention to issues involving the second amendment. I don't know if you might have heard about what had happened as a result of the S&W "sellout" involving the UK
investors group that owned S&W, and the New York housing department police,
and the Brady interests. The loss of business S&W suffered from consumers having
no further business with them forced the investors to sell the company at a loss.
For a few years now, they have been separate from the investors that made that
faustian bargain during the Clinton administration. And for the last few years, S&W
police trade-ins have been for sale. I feel kind of good about that turn of events.
And I own a model 645 trade-in.

I have a few guns myself. You need some form of protection these days.

Is that the wire wrapped stock? And do you have the mills projector permanently
attached?

fl1a - yes, it has the wires around it. i actually never looked up any info myself, the guy at the local area gun shop explained to me about it, so i just took his word.

i don't have the mills projector permanently attached, (nor did i even know that is what they called it). i don't have anything else for it. it would be pretty interesting to get though.

If you could find one one these days, the projector could increase the value. It
is basically a steel cup large enough to put a grenade (mills bomb) inside. A powerful
cartridge would be used to blow the grenade out. The "spoon" would be held in place
until the grenade was launched. Sorry for getting off track.

Like 'em? No....I LOVE guns!!! AK's and SKS's are my happy place. In fact...I took my SKS squirrel hunting today. Overkill? Yes, but it hasn't been out in a looong time.
