Message:: [QUOTE="Sallent, post: 2727343, member: 76194"]In reality the only one I need out of those is the one on the right, a Winchester Model 1894 actually made by Winchester in America when we actually still manufactured things in this country (not one of the modern replicas made by different foreign manufacturers today) and chambered in .30-30. A quick rack of the lever does all the talking you need. Mine is gold plated from the factory. Not sure how that helps with the firing though, but you do have to admit it looks sharp. After that, the Zastava AK-47 from Yugoslavia is my favorite (the compact AK-47 all the way to the left). Sweet little gun. But for intimidation factor, can't beat that antique Serbian SKS in the middle, complete with bayonet and grenade launcher. The all black rifle is a Saiga AK 47 made in Russia, in hunting rifle configuration. I originally bought it for $300 only 6 years ago, but today they are worth north of $3,000 as they are now illegal to import into the US. And the second from the right is a beast of a rifle, a Romania  PSL sniper rifle chambered in 7.62x54R, with original military sniper scope. I bought it for $500 many years back, but these days they don't seem to be available anymore and when they appear for sale, it's sometimes north of $2,500.[/QUOTE]
