I like it for the 30rd mags. I love the Mosin but 5 rds at a time would suck if you really needed it for protection

I got land in western mass that I can shoot 1/4 to 1/2 mile on depending on time of the year / how lazy I am with trimming .
I really need to get some thing so I can try shoot a half mile lol .
If you looked like your avatar and talked my gf in to a 3 way I would give you the address.

My psl isn't that bad at all . Even my 16" psl when it worked wasn't that bad .
Sharps in .50-70, AR, Bighorn Armory 500 Levergun....
The Mass Pike is a great place to shoot past 300m when things get bad... Hell, go to the top of the Pru or a few other buildings and you can really reach out and touch someone. Lot of stairs though and egress may be an issue.
My three rifles most likely to be ban-hammered:
SCAR 17S
AR15 lower with DIAS (half a dozen uppers for any situation)
Crye Six12 (ok not a rifle but likely to be banned by Hitlery)

If it looks like Hitlery is going to be elected, screw the budget; I'm going to max out my credit card and get:
M1A Super Match
Barrett M82a1
American-made AK.

This. I would opt for imports first as they are the easiest to ban, then something in .50 as that will likely be on the radar too because of its extra killy nature. I wouldn't waste money trying to acquire regular bolt action rifles as those would be the last thing to get regulated since they are considered to be hunting/sporting arms as opposed to military "assault" type weapons (even though we all know that a good bolt rifle and scope combo can be just as effective as the scarier looking black rifles). Remember, it's all about perception, not reality when talking about the liberal mindset.

This thread pisses me off because you guys are fantasizing about defeat.
However, in my opinion, economist nails it.
A 50BMG would be cool but for that money you could have several uppers for these 2 AR's in different calibers for when you mouth breathers fall into an other panic buying fit.

Thanks for all the input!
This has livened up the discussion quite a bit. I'm not especially enamored with the AR platform <shrug> so the more variance the better.
I wish my eyes could see 600 yards clearly, but for a lot of us that is not the case. Adding a quality optic is a necessity, at least for me. (I have seen Quigley Down Under, and I agree, that would be quite the rifle to have!)
In a perfect world we wouldn't have to have discussions like this, but to me thinking of the possible outcomes and formulating a strategy makes sense. Given how the populace votes, I don't think I could be surprised at what stupidity they come up with next...

Check the Vepr forum (it's its own website, not on here) and they comment more on Vepr mags. Never heard a bad word spoken about the 10 round mags and there's even 20 round mags available for the 7.62x54r Veprs now. They came out a bit before the whole Obama executive order/import ban on Russian things like Saigas and Ural motorcycles happened.
What bothers you about the 5 round mags? They're not small rounds at all, plus they're rimmed, and it's not a light gun. A lot of states like NH have 5 shot restrictions for hunting and there's about 2 practical purposes for a 7.62x54r Vepr - hunting or a DM rifle. I thought about using it for heavy metal 3 gun, but it's not a "fast" gun to operate.
It's a trap!
