Don't imagine you'd find much deer in Times Square.

Was that the Winchester repeater, firing .44 rimfire?

And I've got a little experience with the Norinco SKSs...my father has one. They're exponentially lighter than the Yugo variety, but I've found that mine performs better. Do you like it?

The New York you're thinking of has Dear. Which i much prefer to hunt.

The Rural areas of New York have Deer. Which is what i assume he was referring to.

Same here. Some parts of the city limits you better watch those tree lines for sudden suicide deer attacks.

Yep, we had about 8 deer run up along side of my dad's truck when we were driving up Panorama Trail. I could have reached out and touched them they were that close. Glad no one hit them (there were two other cars behind us).

So, it's -7 here in Indiana and we have 5 or 6 inches of snow on the ground. It'd be a great opportunity to act out my favorite shots from "Enemy at the Gates" with my new Nagant. That is, if I wasn't between classes until 1700. I bet the range would be desolate, too.

Posting pics of my collection soon!

Apparently you can blame the Russian for strict UK gun laws.

Up until the revolution so I have been told firearms laws in the UK were quite liberal. Then the Russians went and toppled their Tsars, the UK aristocracy got a bit worried with all the plebs having guns so promptly banned most of them.

Something of an oddball collection. Mostly commie stuff.

1946 Mosin M44. Non-matching

1943 Mosin M91/30 Matching.

Prewar Czech vz.24 Mauser made for the Romanian Army

80's Norinco SKS

Late 50's Early 60's Yugo 59/66 SKS

TGI build AK-74 off an Bulgarian parts kit.

1978(?) Marlin 336 in 35rem.

20ga NEF shotgun for clays.

Think that's it...

One gun I'd love to get my hands on...you have permission to laugh a little, would be the Solothurn S-18/1000.


That's the /100 model, but its' essentially the same rifle. The 1000 is a bit longer. Still, I think it would be awesome to get to shoot that thing.
