Bitchers and moaners can go HERE.

For the rest of you, I will take more pictures as I get my guns out. I'm preparing for some Summer fun at the shooting range. :) I have a Russian SKS, another AK-47, and some other goodies to show off.

Moisture seen on the Mossberg is condensation due to the temperature differential between my storage area and the area in which I took the pictures.

H&K USP-40 (Slide locked)

H&K USP-40

Arsenal SLR-95 (Bulgarian AK-47, milled receiver, very nice)

Arsenal SLR-95

Cobray M-11/Nine

Cobray M-11/Nine (With barrel extension/heat shroud)

Mossberg 500 Persuader (Pump foward, no shroud installed)

Mossberg 500 Persuader (Pump back, no shroud installed)

Russian SKS (From 1953)

Russian SKS (Removable magazine installed and bayonet fixed)

I know some Simonov purists will find the removable magazine offensive, but no worries. I have finally come around to stripper clips, I just used the removable magazine for the picture as it was handy. :)

Tula Arsenal Mark (No square with a diagonal line means it was not refurbished, I bought it from a lot that was never issued)

FAQ about Simonov identifying marks

Ruger 10/22 (The perfect plinking rifle)

Remington Gamemaster Model 760 (Pump forward, chambered for .30-06, feeds from a five round removable box magazine)

Remington Gamemaster Model 760 (Pump back)

History of the Remington Gamemaster Model 760. It appears mine was made in 1952, as that seems to be the only year they made it chambered for .30-06.

Stevens Model 311-Series H 20 Gauge Double Barrel, by Savage Arms

Stevens Model 311-Series H 20 Gauge Double Barrel, by Savage Arms (Broken)

The Stevens needs a little refinishing work, on both the furniture and the barrels. Overall in excellent shape, and a steal for $125.00 or so at an estate sale.

Hungarian SA-85M

The Hungarian version of the AK-47. It has a stamped receiver, as opposed to the milled receiver my SLR-95 has, but it is considered to be one of the best stamped receiver models out there.

Remington Speedmaster 552

The Speedmaster belonged to my grandfather. Out of all of my guns, it is probably my favorite, both for the sentimental value, as well as for the form and function. I cannot recall ever having a jam or misfeed with this beauty, and it is so accurate with iron sights one hardly needs to add a scope. The stock design is changed somewhat on the modern incarnation, but I prefer this style anyway. If the modern one is anywhere near as good as this older one, then it would be worth every penny spent on it.

Magnum Research Mountain Eagle .22

Magnum Research Mountain Eagle .22 (Locked open on an empty magazine)

A fun little .22 pistol from the same folks that brought you the Desert Eagle. I am not sure if it is even made any longer, as a search for it on the Magnum Research website turned up nothing.

ASP 26 " Baton (Holstered)

ASP 26" Baton (Closed)

ASP 26" Baton (Opened)

True, it's not a gun, but I figured some of you might appreciate it anyway. ;) It's an ASP brand extendable baton with an electroless nickel finish. It's twenty-six inches fully extended, and a lot heavier than it looks. They make an lightweight model, but I prefer that it have some heft to it. :) The holster is adjustable to fit tightly to belts of various sized, and the part that holds the baton itself rotates three hundred sixty degrees. It can be pulled out vertically, or pulled out sideways.

what does it take to own a gun? Do I have to take some gun safety class and get a permit before i can buy one? I always wanted an AR15

There are different laws for different states, counties, cities, etc. Where do you live?

You don't nessecerily have to take a class, but its a good idea. I think you should have to.

California has some of the most convoluted and fscked up gun laws out there, I would find a dealer and ask them.

You might also want to read THIS before purchasing any type of gun. If you've never dealt with guns before, definitely take some classes.

Hey, my other AK-47 is a Hungarian. I bought it when they were banned a second time for "getting around the law." (Oh, I'm sorry Mr. Clinton, I didn't realize complying with a law was considered "getting around it.") A local store had a few left in stock, so I encouraged a friend of mine to pick one up, as he had been considering one of the Rumanian models. I picked one up as well for the Hell of it, it's still new in the box.

It's a floating barrel that is not locked in place until the slide is locked. Almost all semi-auto pistols have those.

Glocks do as well. I'm not sure about Ruger semi-autos, I don't work with them much though they do have a pistol chambered for .45 ACP that I like the looks of.

If you want to own a gun run down to your local shooting range or gun seller and they'll know all the rules. Hell, give them a call if nothing else. Usually theres nothing required to own a rifle.

I like the SLR. I've been wanting to get a Vepr for a while now.

This is California we're talking about. You say "AR-15" within earshot of a cop and they'll probably simultaneously sh!t their pants and cave your skull in with a flashlight.

Looks like there's no love for the guns tonight. I'll be snapping some pics of my Glock (and other gear) next week. :D
