If you want to play soldier you should have bought a soldier's gun, a USP is not a soldier's gun.

Califag here. Depends on what you're looking for. Bought the springfield Saint. Works ok. Yeah the survival stock is ugly as fuck but when I move out I'll just change the stock. You're best bet for longevity sake is Mini-14 and when you move out you can uncuck it.

pretty sure they only come in 5.56 unless you want a mini-30 in x39. you really shouldn't pay more than 700 bucks.

If you’re spending that kind of money on a Cali compliant non-ar15, save a little more and find a like-new benelli MR1.

Superb rifle, reliable, very accurate. Funky ethos that are still better than a mini’s

NAWT A SOLDJAS GUN?

Go to Pawnshops and find one for cheap. I picked one up for a little over 500 after taxes and all of other Californias bullshit fees. Pretty much brand new, came with everything in the box still.


Mini-30 is hot garbage. It has trouble with a lot of steel cased x39, which if you're looking to shoot x39, cheap ammo is the whole fucking point, isn't it?

Just buy an ak, for what your getting in that state it's worth more than an AR-15 for what you're doing.
It's what i'm planning when I move there.

Aks already banzored too. Gotta get a shit grip for it or something else gay

Buy a norinco sks for 400 if you want 7.62x39. It'll be far more reliable and cheaper to maintain, easier to

There's .300 blackout as well

Yeah, the only 3 stipulations for an ak platform is no muzzle brake, you gotta stick a plastic scratcher for the grip, and put a 10 round mag into the feed.
That's objectively better than everything happening to the scurry black baby killer-15

Are you retarded? The banned features don't change from rifle to rifle. Anything you could have on an AK you could have on an AR.

Toyt tolerenses?!

wasn't because of a certain Californian politician Norinco isn't allowed to import anymore? Or did they just get a huge fine

Just buy an AR. Switch out the stock for a Fagpul precision 'adjustable' stock instead of a collapsible one. Replace the standard flash hider with a good compensator/muzzle break which you should do anyways. Slap on a shitty sharkfin on the pistol grip (which you can slip off whenever no eyes around). Bam, you are featureless and don't need a bullet button abomination or register your funz as an 'assault weapon'. Go kill watermelons and soda bottles with a clear conscious that you are not violating the State's non-nonsensical laws the way they are violating your Rights.

Also if you arent a poorfag go grab a mini-14 too for your collection. They are nice rifles too.

Yeah you can do the same thing with AR's granted they have fixed stocks

There is also the meme stocks like the thorsden which emulates a traditional stock grip so you don't need the kydex grip wrap, and the ares scr also exists but I have never seen one in a store

When did I explicitly state the banned features change from rifle to rifle?
All I did was mention the few points on an AK platform to make them Cali-Legal that you as a consumer need to be aware of.
As opposed to all the shit you're not allowed to have for an AR and skipping all the stupid workarounds for the ignorant laws in place not to mention cucked gear you'll be buying for it to resemble a musket.
at least the AK will still resemble it's original design.

Are you retarded?

Never even heard of this until today, looks like a good (expensive) alternative to minis and also to be compliant with CA faggotry.

You can do literally the same thing to an AR though

I don't think that's a good alternative, there is virtually no support for it. The area scr accomplishes the same thing while having basically all AR aftermarket available

A Mini-14 is pretty good if you get one that's made after 2006 (serials starting with 581).
You're in California, so you'll be restricted to 10rd magazines, but you could jungle-tape two mags to make for a quick and easy reload, the package of two 10rd mags together also being larger and easier to handle, almost the size of a 20 or 30 round magazine.

I don't know if you can get a Mini-14 with flash hider in Cali, but I suppose you could order one out of state, then ask them to have the hider removed by someone out of state, then have a muzzlebrake attached and pinned on.

Yes?

It will last longer than the metal parts of a gun.

What the fuck are you talking about? There are no extra workarounds you have to do if you go with the gay grip wrap and take off the flash hider, same as an AK. The 10 round magazines are just plain state law and the fixed mag shit is only of you want a flash hider, unmolested pistol grip, underbarrel flare launcher, or other banned feature.

>le photodegradation meme XD
A 1980's Glock 17 will outlive you.

are m1a's banana'ed in californi?

I can't help stupid people with reading comprehension. I'm sorry you can't read or understand what words mean user.
Either find a rope or turn off the MP3 telling you how to breathe in and out on loop.

Nigger, anything you can't have on an AR you can't have on an AK. It is not
>objectively better than everything happening to the scurry black baby killer-15
because it is fucking identical.

Minis are fun as hell. Get a 223. Price wise 700 is a good limit in my state, not sure if thats a good limit in cali since since guns tend to be priced higher there.

get a good bolt action precision rifle. git good. forget about your cucked semis.

I think a SOCOM 308 would be neat.

This would probably be the best option possibly, since laws in California are more than likely not to change in the future and only likely to become worse

Sks

Sks clips are easy to load, or garand. Also get some surefire 60s in Vegas then an ar and bring it to call then a bump fire assault stock and fight the democrats.

>It will last longer than the metal parts of a gun.
who told you this, and what empirical data is it based on

Just don't comply lol.
