Perhaps *too* short a barrel for that rifle/round? Maybe better with an 18" bbl (eg Scout model) + Ops Inc or Surefire can?

Long range bullet.....

It is likely that those who buy it want to shoot longer.
Short barrel better suits 7.62X39. Soccom's short barrel may cause some disapointment...not something practice shouldn't overcome.
7.62 X 51 + long barrel = Happy face.
7.62 X 39 = SKS or AK. Oh hell! what did I just say?

No restriction on private ownership of full-auto in Lux?

Ownership of non demillitarized full-autos is allowed on a collectors permit, yes. We are not allowed to shoot them though. All my full autos are fully functional but I'm not allowed to take them to the range.

That makes a lot of sense.

Buy a farm, get some suppressors, and build an indoor range in a barn?

Not much fun owning stuff you cannot shoot, I imagine.

There are many a law that don't make much sense over here in Yuropistan......but not everybody respects all of them.....with or without suppressors.

How does 60,000 acres in Wyoming sound? You can shoot all you want.

Nice pics...
