What have you bought recently? Please share. I've got alot of 7.62x54r stashed, so its still cheap for me.  |

They are rare but Steyr actually made a ban compliant version of the AUG called the USR. Also, the MSAR and TPD AUG clones are legal here. So yeah it is entirely possible to own all the guns on that list here in NJ. ETA: before anyone tells me that you can't own a Sturmgewehr here, google "PTR-44" |

You will be hand loading? |

Thanks. If that piece produces that kind of a group with factory (maybe premium, don't know) ammo - that is one helluva build and pretty damn good Gunsmith. |

Here she is. She is an Izhmash from 1943 (I think we will call her "Olga"
 ).
She came home on Tuesday and I just finished putting the finishing touches on her this morning. My ammo order arrived yesterday. I hope the wife will let me take her out on a date this weekend.

If sighting your rifle in any way involves a brass hammer and oak 2-x-4s, you might own a Mosin-Nagant.
Took the Mosin to the range Friday afternoon, but the sights were too far off to have any fun. Heading back tomorrow morning with a proper Russian sight adjustment kit.  |
