They existed back then (well, folding-butt rifles, anyways). You had the Rogaks and the five G series folders. I can't recall if there were other import batches by that time or not. And of course, you could have someone go through the effort of importing something; I've heard of this being done for hard-to-get European stuff like the CZ-75. If you wanted a para configuration without going through the trouble of trying to find something overseas and import it, you could get one of the folding-butt rifles with the long barrel and have it cut down and rethreaded to para length and you'd be GTG.

Sp-1 carbine and Hi Power.
Even when it's not 1977 I choose the Hi Power. |

Not much of a rifleman, so I'm not sure what was in back then, so I'll go with an M1 Garand. As far as a pistol I'd go with a 3rd Model Hand Ejector in .44 Special. http://i820.photobucket.com/albums/zz125/Shot_To_Hell/16706868_264373293999900_1271663527_n_zpsda4lovdz.jpg View Quote |
