My first was a 1942 Mosin Nagant. It was $80 and I got a tin of ammo with it for another $40.First centerfire rifle I ever bought was a Yugo SKS for $90....back before the internet was remotely common I remember wondering if it was any good since it was cheap even then
60 years ago I think we were. Now that the Frankfurt school has fully taken root here, I dont think we are. There is a sizable portion of the population that is still antithetical to Marxism, but I feel like that is born out of the military complex. I dont know if there will be another Thomas jefferson or james Madison to temper things afterwardsI think the long term outlook is overwhelmingly negative, but my job is also to consider worst possible outcomes all day.
People were fucked when the plague was everywhere.
People were fucked when the mongols came.
People were fucked in WWI and WWII.
People were fucked in Cambodia.
People were fucked in Turkey.
People were fucked in the USSR.
People are being fucked in Hong Kong.
People are being fucked in Venezuela.
The potential for fuckery seems to be now realized here. Maybe American exceptionalism is a thing and we're truly different from the rest of the world. I'm not sure.
I will be there at opening as i am an early bird
It’s really that I want a wood SIDE folder, not just a fixed stock. The underfolder is fine, it’s not a precision rifle so a tiny bit of stock wobble isn’t killing me. Problem with it is how slow it is to deploy the UF stock.If you want a wood stock, just trade the underfolder for one with a wood stock. I've removed an underfolder and used that kit above to add a MFT Minimalist stock to a Yugo using this as inspiration:
Best case and realistic are probably mutually exclusive outcomes.Realistically, what is the best case scenario for VA? I cant think of anything that would be better than what it was in December.
Might have to link up!
You arent wrong. It's become black and white, because any legislation passed will be as bad as if the total ban passed. It's a zero sum game nowBest case and realistic are probably mutually exclusive outcomes.
Realistically, coverage is buried on purpose. Several individuals are arrested and labeled as neo-Nazis and that gets covered so it looks like everyone associated with protesting is a neo-Nazi. Governor Blackface calls everyone's bluff and VA turns into the east coast version of CA practically overnight. Legislation is passed and the NRA asks everyone for a bunch of money to litigate the constitutional overreaches of the legislation over the next 10 years as VA becomes even deeper blue. As it becomes deeper blue, residents of NoVA decide that taxes are too high and use their money to move to North Carolina and Kentucky to vote for the same stupid ideas that ruined VA. The people left in VA are left with a powerful centralized government that continues to thirst for power and goes further left on its own.
100%I see ultra-leftists doing something stupid on Monday and then you can imagine who will get blamed by the media then there will be a nationwide confiscation underfoot.
Seriously, they are so crazy I wouldn't put it past them to don a NRA t-shirt and shoot their own governor in the head in order to advance their cause.
I don't know if it's enough to offset the sheer number of socialists and leftists that have emerged and control the media and education.60 years ago I think we were. Now that the Frankfurt school has fully taken root here, I dont think we are.

I believe that this is a highly likely scenario. We've seen that leftists are happy to use violence to achieve their goals. They've been enabled by liberals turning a blind eye and not holding them accountable just because some of their values align.I see ultra-leftists doing something stupid on Monday and then you can imagine who will get blamed by the media then there will be a nationwide confiscation underfoot.

100%
But that was also on ZeroHedge so maybe not?
They need revolutionaries now, but will get rid of them once the legislation is 'voted' in. Seems like this happened before...like in 1917 somewhereI believe that this is a highly likely scenario.
