There was a time before 1932 that marijuana was legal. What's your point?

That’s about what I paid for my Norenco SKS back in the 90s. Took me forever to get all the cosmoline cleaned off. Such a great rifle though. Really enjoyed it until it was tragically lost in an unfortunate boating accident.

Hell man those are like 100 years old, I’m trying to remember the magazines that sold things like SKS’s and nagants in the the 90s for like $89?

ETA: I legit bought 3 drilled out grenades and a gas mask when I was 13. Great times.

The point is those are both things that have no business being illegal.

Third pic down, first weapon top left corner. That’s the Stg.44.

It was christened “assualt rifle” by none other than Adolf Hitler himself when he witnessed a demonstration. This is the granddaddy of them all. This literally is the rifle that birthed the “assault rifle” as we know it today.

Of course by assault rifle I mean the actual definition of assault rifle, namely the ability to have “selective fire” where the user can choose between semi-automatic fire or automatic/burst fire; not just look scary to leftists.

Most of those (including all WWII-era full autos) you never could order through the mail. The full-auto guns and the antitank rifles started being heavily restricted after the National Firearms Act of 1934. Ever since then, although most of us can legally own them, it requires a bunch of checking through a special dealer (not just any old Federal Firearms License holder). Think time, money, and a waiver to let the BATFE crawl up your backside when they want.

AFAIK you could still buy some modern guns through the mail until the Gun Control Act of 1968. Now any mail-order sales have to go through a licensed dealer.

AFAIK as of today, maybe you can still buy antique (defined as made before 1898) guns through the mail.

You’re damn right. By the way, you heard a new version of our beloved Abrams is about to be introduced anydsy now? I’ve seen some teasers but can’t tell much. Looks like a major redesign of at least the turret from what little I can tell.

JFK's assassination was responsible for doing away w/ mail order guns. The gun Oswald used was a mail order Italian surplus gun.
