Oops. Two things which already are not accurate.

1. the ‘MAK-90’ picture is a filler since I don’t yet have a picture of my actual rifle.

2. The first Kalashnikov also now has a 4" flash-suppressor/barrel extension permanently attached per ATF regs. It also has a side-rail mount installed for my future purchase of a Kobra collimator sight.

Impressive collection.

I don’t have any pictures, but I do have a couple quick questions. What kind of scopes do you have on the Marlins? I’m thinking about getting a Model 60 as my next purchase. Also, what model is your SA 1911–it looks like the Mil-Spec to me.

</div>

The scopes on the marlins are the cheapest sporting-goods store scopes they carried. One was in the $20 range. Now that I think of it, I think the newer Marlin came with the scope.

The 1911: Yes, it is the milspec. The photo doesn’t reflect all the mods I’ve made. I think an ambidextrous safety is next.

Where can you find mags for the Sport King? I inherited my Dad’s, and I can’t seem to find any spare mags anywhere. He only has the one. But then, he also had the 6" barrel for it, so I shouldn’t complain.

I’m not going to schlep all the rifles out of the safe just for pictures.

Oh, and a Mossberg 500.

I’ve wanted a Very Pistol since I was a kid, but they’re of questionable legality here… in that there’s no law saying you _can’t_ have one, but a Category H Firearms Licence doesn’t have a category for “Boaties who want a Flare Gun” unless you’re a commercial fisherman, and you can’t fire guns held on a Collector’s Licence.

> Hey, I’m a Kanuckistani. What do you expect?

I expect you to have a .303 calibre Longbranch-manufactured Lee-Enfield No 4 Mk I\*, a .303 Ross Rifle, a 9mm Inglis FN Hi-Power, and/or one of the many handguns used by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police/Royal Northwest Mounted Police- ideally a Webley Mk IV, but a Colt M1905 or an Enfield No 1 Mk II is also fine. 😛

Canada’s gun laws are a bit less stringent than Australia’s, so you’ve got no excuses for not having a real gun! 😃
