    Sig P226, Rock River Arms AR-15 and Steyr Scout ... if funds permit! I go shooting every time I visit the in-laws and have been bitten by the bug. I hadn't considered any classic rifles but I'm now considering something along those lines.

    I'm an IT guy but have no experience in semiconductor fab/design. More an IT manager so will see what comes up. Will be moving to PA but hope to end up in CA for some time ... you might have to show me around!

    where in PA? I have a place in the Poconos, I used to work in Allentown (for my sins).
    The gun laws in PA are pretty liberal, no capacity restrictions, FTF long arms sales allowed between non prohibited persons (IE you can go to say www.thepapershop.com, find an ad for a rifle, phone up the guy meet him and buy without any papers)

    Screw the 226, get a 229 and shoot .40

    That is one of the benefits of PA. I won't go the concealed or open carry direction, just sport shooting.

    Parkesburg most likely, but we'd like to settle in Kennett Square. Beautiful neck of the woods! Haven't been up to Allentown but that's not too far away. Small world ey?

    get your license to carry anyway, Its useful for FTF deals, gives the seller definitive proof your not a felon.

    Banned by name here in California.
    I think the closest representative example I can get is the Steyr USR or the MSAR http://www.msarinc.com/home.html

    Tac have you ever used the FN ? You defo didin't look old enough to have been in when it was used by FCA :eek:

    1998 if my memory serves me right when I did a conversion course on the Steyr and that was first one for FCA in Southern Command if my memory serves me right.

    Nah,all Harmonious has to do is move to Arziona.Cheaper,just as hot,friendlier laid back people without heads in asses.Class 3 state with full auto,easier CWP,and proably alot safer if the "big one" should ever hit.Plenty of Sthn Californians there as well should he feel lonely:)

    I have a C&R license and have driven out to Prescott AZ to JGsales.com
    Was a bit scary driving through homeland security to get over the hoover dam with 5K of 8mm mauser in the back of the RV!
