Frequently Asked Questions

What are good rifle options if an assault weapons ban passes with magazine capacity limits?

In a post-assault weapons ban scenario with magazine limits, consider rifles like the SKS (7.62x39mm) with its 10-round fixed magazine, the M1 Garand (.30-06 Springfield) with an 8-round en bloc clip, or lever-action rifles like the Marlin 30-30 (.30-30 Winchester) which typically hold 6-7 rounds.

Which rifle caliber is recommended for better ammunition availability post-ban?

For better ammunition availability post-ban, the 7.62x39mm used in the SKS is recommended over 5.56x45mm or .223 Remington. The .30-30 Winchester and 7.62x54mmR (Mosin-Nagant) are also noted for their relative availability and affordability.

What is the recommended ammunition stockpile for a post-assault weapons ban rifle?

It is recommended to stockpile at least 500 rounds of ammunition for your chosen rifle to ensure you have an adequate supply in a post-assault weapons ban scenario. Checking local gun shops is advised for finding available stock.

Are there specific rifle features that are advantageous in a post-assault weapons ban?

Rifles with fixed or internal magazines, such as the SKS, M1 Garand, Mosin-Nagant, and Mauser, are advantageous as they inherently comply with potential 10-round magazine capacity limits. Lever-action rifles also offer a less tactical appearance.
