Meh politicians... I can see why they would keep something that looks like a full-on assault rifle off the streets since law enforcement or civilians can't tell if it's a full or semi-auto one...

But then again, the AR-15 is legal and people who don't have one or is not a gun nut, can't tell it from an M4A1

we have at least a dozen rifles that look like full autos

they banned it because they want to ban ALL semi autos and are trying to limit how many get in the country

Went to the range Saturday in Pennsylvania and has some fun. Shot an AK-47, an MP-5 and a Glock 9mm (the inspirations for my selections were Counterstrike and Jared Loughner ). The AK had a lot more kick than I expected it to. The MP-5 was like shooting a BB gun in comparison. Boom vs Zing. They were both a lot of fun. The Glock was the first handgun I've fired since I was 8 years old and my groupings were surprisingly very good. I punched a nice ragged hole in the center of the bullseye (slightly south of dead center) and it had next to no kick to it. I wouldn't mind purchasing one in the future.

Oh, and we did some trap shooting for applejack shots which I raped my buddies on. 14 of 15 with the sun going down (doubles). Not too shabby

Nope. Only officers ever touched handguns. I qualified on the M-16 (expert) and hand grenades (marksman ) in basic training. I qualified on the M249 SAW (expert) when I got to my unit.

To be honest, I think the whole system would be better if they made a more thorough PAL application screening and followups. It's because of the rare psycho that all this bullshit occurs.

As for this ruling, yeah, it's daft. You think it'll be stuck down?

make a more thorough screening, then get rid of the restricted and prohib classes

Glocks are good, I like the Browning better though.

At what distance was the handgun target?

ak's are good for mowing the lawn, clearing shrubs. ..lol. My buddy used to disperse groundhogs with them on his ranch. Knuckle busters they are. Glocks are by far my favorite handgun to shoot. It's just very comfortable to me.

10-15 meters.

FFL transfer.  Make buyer pay $15-30.  You can ups a gun overnight to a registered FFL dealer (like a pawn shop guy).  Buyer shows up, does background check at pawn shop, waits (or if CWP get gun), then can pick up the gun.

Biggest headache is finding a FFL dealer who doesn't want to charge you 20% of gun value...

Yeah, I'm really thankful there are FFLs out there that do flat-fee $20 transfers.  One in town here does up to 5 firearms on one transfer fee!
He does it because he was POed at the local shops that wanted 10% and $50 respectively.

To clairfy,  its the determination of your MOS. I've got expert rifle and expert pistol and I rolled 0311 & 8541. Surprised they didn't get you some range time on a variety of weapons from different countires

I was commo so there was no need. In our unit the senior NCOs (E-6+) and officers carried M-4s, the officers carried Berettas, everyone else carried M16A2s, long barreled M249s, or M16A2/M203s.

In basic, all we had was BRM and grenade training. The grenade course at Benning is a bitch.

How the hell do you marksman in grenade?  You have to literally hit the target with the grenade pre-detonation?
