Is the rifle full-automatic?

Nope, semi-auto.

I don't have the ~$12,000 it costs to purchase a full-auto AR-15. Nor the BATF permit, but that's a lesser issue.

(This week ) my favorite is my new over and under shotgun ,
a Charles Daly Diamond III 12 ga.

Remington model 700, 30.06 or 308.

Ithica Model 37 Featherlight 12-gauge shotgun with interchangeable slug barrel with rifled sites.

Simple old Army-issue 45 caliber.

Actually, a select-fire M-16 doesn't cost all that much more than an AR-15, and the tax is only about $250.

Au contrare, my friend.

A selective fire M-16 doesn't cost an agency or an agency sponsored buyer that much more.

A civilian with a tax stamp still cannot buy anything made after 1986.

The tax stamp is $200. A civilian transferrable class III firearm is $8,000 + depending on the gun.

Here's a good example of civilian transferrable market pricing: http://www.westernfirearms.com/wfc

I own this one :



It has been used during WWI

There's nothing like a good old fashioned hand cannon...



I am looking into picking up something like this for my own protection.

I have an Ithaca model 51 featherweight 12 ga. that I use for trap. I do pretty good at trap with this gun (22-24 out of 25) I still haven't hit 'em all (yet).

Hopefully not as a first handgun.

Hmmmm... I'll have to do some research, as I know I defrinitely didn't spend that kind of money, as my wife would have used it on me! It was just a bit of a while ago.

As the supply diminishes, the prices have gone waaaaay up. Heck, even a registered drop-in sear goes for the better part of 7 grand these days.

You can buy an unregistered pre-81 drop in sear, but if you possess both the sear and an AR-15, you're in possession of an unlawful machine gun (even if you never put the sear in the gun), and the ATF will do horrible things to you if you get caught.

Matt

No, but the first in a long time.

FWIW, I would suggest finding a range that offers rentals, and check out a few options on the firing line first.

The big hand cannons are fun sometimes, but not optimal defensive tools IMHO.
