I'm just guessing but I have to guess "almost definitely" given the silly relentless ban agenda



e: they should be banned for being terrible anyway

just want the cheapest way to get my e (that can be sent back to a if it goes to shit)

Correct, it got overturned in court and then Aramona happened.

Went and had a fiddle on the ATI / Choate pistol grip stocks and just about barfed on the floor, soooooo depressing

Left with an Anschutz RX22 for only about $300 more - its a pretty damn fun gun (now to be know as and referred to as the the coonsterminator)



Representative group shot with the cheapest ammo available = might be a keeper

Pitty about the trigger that feels like two bits of wood being dragged over concrete

Trigger is SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEET

try again

No idea why the pic is so big, cant seem to fix it

If you're a retarded rock ape

Maybe it feels ok because my knuckles are used to draging on the ground??

Actually the shitty gritty trigger was the one on my "flash" CZ 452 which needed plenty of work and thousands of rounds to smooth out.

Only poors consider a CZ 'flash'. They're a decent rifle with rough finish and some cheap parts

Spose flash isnt the term for a 452 and "quite adequate" is more realistic.

It was a kinda depressing to use a Norinco copy for a few weeks and not notice the fact that it was the Norinco version till right at the end..

They're fine rifles but they're not the shining beacon of quality people like to make out. I mean I'd definitely have one over most other rim fires. It's not like there's much better available in NZ

Not at that price point at least. Next common step up is an Anschutz!

Legally, you can use a magazine that looks like it can hold 10 rounds, it just can't physically hold more than 7 rounds.

Fraid not until the new legislation is clear anyway. The old rules stated "hold more than 7 rounds OR appears to hold more than 7 rounds"

Yes you're right. Thanks for clarifying.
