>>28426537
Sounds like you got ripped off.
>>28426537
>mfw people are paying the price of a Ruger American or Savage Axis and claiming that the nugget is still superior as prices continue to rise as does ammo
How do the SKS poorfags feel about them now costing roughly $100 less than a WASR at this point?
>>28426537
You got ripped off. Surplus is 30 cents per round here, bottom of the barrel Tulammo is 40.
>>28426556
Tul ammo from Walmart. 12 something after tax for a box of 20
>>28426567
Listen newfag.
Nobody in their right mind claims the nugget is superior to much of anything.
The nugget was only ever popular because you could get it and a bunch of ammo for like $160, it was milsurp, and the rounds were powerful enough to kill shit.
And also because it came with a bayonet.
>inb4 I'm not a newfag
If you'd been here by at least 2012, I wouldn't have to explain this shit to you.
>>28426610
>2012 was 7 years ago
God I feel old.
>>28426610
lol, I've been here since well before 2012 and my post was rhetorical. And yes, there are people who still claim the nugget is superior to modern production bolt actions.
There are people who still defend buying SKSs and Nuggets even at their current prices. But you don't have to take my posts so seriously. Thanks for the (You) though.

Everything about your post is wrong.

>>28426576

>walmart
That's your problem. Should have gotten some surplus from a gun store. .30c/round is the worst I've had to pay.
>>28426567
SKS is fun and I like collecting guns. So I don't really give a shit.
>>28426610
>>28426638
This. Fuck me. Nugget is still one of the cheapest guns around though.
>>28426610
>2012
newfags calling newfags newfags newfag
>>28426876
I only said 2012 because that's when nugget prices started going up, and when nugget threads started to decline, in my experience.
But of course you were only looking for a chance to shitpost, so whatever.
>yfw the AR has become the most economical shooting platform
its a strange feel.
>>28426898
Newfags making excuses for calling newfags newfags, newfag.
did i miss my chance to get a beautiful nugget like this one?
>>28426644
>There are people who still defend buying SKSs and Nuggets even at their current prices.
$350 for an SKS still isn't terrible. I've never heard anyone defend buying a mosin for more than $200 though. I think you're making that up.
>>28426989
I think it's just slavaboos who refuse to concede to budget rifles like the Ruger American or Savage Axis.
>>28426994
whatever justifies your persecution complex, friend.
>>28426994
Personally, I always thought that those just looked boring tbqh
>>28426994
Not everyone likes polymer and fudd stocks. It's not all about quality. People own guns because they're cool, not just because they do something the best. Anyway, even though slavshit ammo will always be the cheapest, there are cheaper bolt action surplus rifles like south american mausers that are very good as well. Surplus will have its own niche as long as it's still in circulation.
>>28426537
It's like 21 cents a round on gunbot wtf are you doing?
>>28427048
Now recalculate with shipping or if you're in a commie state ffl fees.
>mfw paying $115 for 192rnd spam cans of .30-06 WITH clips and bandoliers
Did I mention it's reloadable brass too?
Supposedly Century is importing another huge batch from Ukraine this month.
>>28427070
How?
>>28427027
This.
Nobody buys a nugget for performance. Nuggets are cool
>>28427105
Lucky fucker. I too must get on this path. I want an M1 bad but I figure it might be better to get a Scary brand Salt Rifle before Clinton puts a ban on them for good. Fuck that cunt.
>>28427144
Buy a Garand dumbass. They haven't been made since the 50s and are more fun than your gay plastic toy
>>28427105
How fo I join the cmp?
>>28427163
why not both
>>28427251
Join a club that is an affiliate. Or make a "club" and apply for affiliation. Military is automatically considered affiliated. NRA and GOA (Gun Owners of America) are both affiliates. NRA is bigger but I like the GOA a bit more. Though on the flip side I also don't know a ton about the GOA, I'm still reading up on them and some of the stuff they do.
>>28426567
Pretty good actually, I only stand to gain if I sell it.
>>28427340
This is bad info.
Nra is not a cmp affiliated club
Just look at the cmps website for joking requirements.
I also bought 10 cans of 192 rounds of 30-06 in clips in bandits for 115$ each shipped
>>28427513
They were the last time I looked. Time to google I guess.
>>28427513
Autocorrect is failing me hard

>>28427577
Alright, had to walk do so that's what took so long. Anyway, my confusion came from the mix up between NRA at the national and state level. From the CMPs website:
>Q.
>IF I AM A MEMBER OF THE NRA MAY I PURCHASE FIREARMS AND AMMUNITION FROM YOUR FACILITIES?
>A.
>Membership in the NRA, at the national level, does not satisfy our requirements that customers be members of a CMP affiliated club or organization. The NRA at the national level is not an affiliate. Most of the NRA state associations have affiliated with the CMP and do satisfy the requirement.
Last I checked the local NRA club was an affiliate. So hey, confusion cleared.

Holy fuck that stock is beautiful
Anyone got nice pics like this of the single barrel NEF shotguns? I love the case hardened receivers

The Ruger American and Savage Axis aren't that cheap when you include the cost of a scope because they don't make the damn things with sights on them. Plan on paying at least $100 for a scope if you actually want it to last, and at that point your going to be spending about $400 and might as well wait, save $50-$100 more, and build an AR-15. The only cheap long guns available now days are .22 rifles that you have to fight hoarders to the death to obtain decent priced ammo for, break action rifles with sights (about $250 new), Hi Point carbines (start at $265 for the 9mm one) but those have some problems (bending/breaking firing pins and the normal Hi Point less than reliable magazines) and are a pain to clean, and bolt(sub $100)/break(~$100)/pump action(sub $200 for low quality new or good quality used) shotguns.
I have never payed more that $.40/round for 7.62x54r, and I shoot 174gr heavy ball. You are doing it all wrong.
>>28426994
>Ruger American
>$500 starting

>>28428394
Got my axis used for 300 with a bushnell banner scope, was either that, or a new axis with no scope
>>28427340
>Join a club that is an affiliate.
If your local range, VFW, etc isn't on the list, you can join the Garand Collectors Assoc for $25 to fulfil the affiliated club requirement
>>28426576
Yeah that's new production for you. I've got a K31 and I'm not looking forward to the prices of Prvi Partisan.

Let me tell you about my $500 pre-1899 mosins.
>>28426917
>mfw it happened right around the time I started getting into ARs
I did it, the absolute madman. I sold my M44. I will either buy a Finnish or a Ruger American.
>>28426537
>mfw i bought 900 rounds for 35 cpr and i get a slavtastic crate with it too
>>28426954
yes
>>28428394
Even then the Ruger or Savage are gonna have a better trigger, a much easier way to mount a scope and a lighter stock. Once you fix all that on a mosin you'll come out paying a little more due to gunsmithing and S&H for all the accessories. And you're still stuck with the fact that every now and then you'll need a hammer to open the bolt.
>MFW I snag a sealed tin of stripper clip'ed x54r from SGAmmo for $60 awhile back

Feels fucking good, mang.
