If you are thinking of getting a C&R, then subscribe to Shotgun News. It is basically a big firearms classifieds paper with some great articles in it. Pretty cheap, too, considering that you get 3 a month. There are lots of big advertisers in it that sell plenty of old SKSs, Mausers, and Mosin Nagants that are legal with a C&R, and CHEAP too. You could buy an old Yugo SKS for between 100 and 200 dollars, depending on the supplier and the condition of the firearm, and a decent non-German Mauser or Mosin Nagant for less than 100 dollars.Glocksman wrote:=I'm thinking about applying for a C&R licence so I can collect Curio & Relic firearms via mail order. There's plenty of places online to buy cheap Yugo SKS's and other various ComBloc surplus pistols and rifles with a C&R license. The $30 license cost would be recovered in the cost savings from my first purchase..

you know what sucks? A wife that doesn't like guns. she doesn't mind me buying them and going shooting, but at the moment she's making me keep my Enfield at a friend's house. For the best i guess considering we have just an apartment right now. I guess i'll have to wait until we get a house before i buy an SKS.

gun buying abilities. I was buying guns as fast as I got the money for
them before my arrest.
And do I have to sic my Uncle Les on you? His gun safe is literally filled
with all kinds of guns from M-4 look alikes to multiple Glocks.
Lets not forget his trip down to a shooting range in Arkansas with
three Miniguns and 3 M2 .50 Cal HMGs

My Weapons
All are 440 Stainless steel and can hold an edge
These two I actually got for my girlfriend for Christmas last year, and her birthday 2 months ago.
They are kept at my house as she has no room for them while she's living with her father and siblings. If we break up before she moves out on her own, I get to keep them. If we break up after she has moved out on her own, she takes them with her.
1 Katana, Highlander movie style handle, 440 Stainless steel, two handed, steel scabbard
1 Claymore (Scottish Two Handed Sword, watch the movie 'Braveheart' if you don't know)
1 Double Bladed Black Short Sword 'Ninja' weapon
1 Broad Sword 'Sword of Darkness'
1 Broad Sword 'Sword of Darkness' style 2
1 Sword of the Daywalker, kept sharp
1 Small Battle'eh, approx 24' wide.
1 Full Size Battle'eh, approx 48' wide. I have successfully cleaved 4x4 beams with it
Set; White Python snake imprint
1 Katana, single handed/two-handed
1 Wakashi, single-handed
1 'short sword/dagger' (no idea what the name is)
1 Short Wooden Bookken
2 50lb Draw Pistol Crossbows. Rather cheap, included for the sake of completeness. I need to find drawstrings that will not fray and break after 4 - 5 firings.
On order/Way
15' 'Ramboo' Style survival knife
2 Ninja Throwing Knives with wrist sheaths
Plan to get
Crossbow, 150lb draw+, with laser dot sight and bolts that you can use to go fishing with
A Long Bow/hunting Bow. Problem is, my girlfriend is arguably as a good a bowman as Legolas is in the LoTR movie (in terms of speed and accuracy)
Roman Gladius (Sword)
Bullwhip
Various throwing knives
A copy of the sword 'Callisto' used on the show Xena (I'd like to pick up the actress that played Callisto to, put it ain't happening)
From SwordsOnline.com:
BC-006: Collectors Edition Fantasy Sword (Got Guts?)
A Tai-Chi Sword, probably JS108: Ceremonial Tai Chi Sword
MR9-385: Fantasy Claws (Hey, Hugh Jackman, check this out*)
Probably some Sai's, Throwing Knives, Darts
Riot Gear (full suit, with Shield)
Should have been mine but alas, are not
(after his stroke in 85, they were not stored correctedly and were beyond repair and were destroyed)
My Grandfathers old military service revolvers (2, Korean War)
My grandfathers Bolt action rifle
2 other rifles, unknown type/classification.
Firearms I might get one I own my own house and can turn a room into a room with a lock to avoid accidents
Anything I can get my hands on.
For example
The surplus store at the other end of town has a Deactivated Browning .50 cal I could pick up for $6000.00 (and could get working at full capacity for like $200)

In my personal possession I've got a .22 target rifle and an SKS. However I have full access to my fathers collection which includes over a hundred firearms, mostly rifles. I also have some edged weapons, K-Bar and some much less impressive blades.

I think my dad paid only about 120 USD; it was something of a gift so I'm not exactly sure. The Chinese have unleashed a flood of them on the market, I guess the peoples militia finally upgraded, so you can now find them pretty easily for about 100-120. A thousand rounds of ammo would probably run you around a hundred fifty bucks.Col. Crackpot wrote:
