Where, when and how? I can try and scrounge up 500.

I think I'm going to start saving up for a Mossy 500, because they're pretty cheap and durable from what I understand.

Which model and for what though? If you’re just looking for like a secondary gun to keep in a car while hunting or home defense, though it is over-recommended imo, the Shockwave is a good investment.

Shockwave is a decent choice then. It’s kinda gimmicky and very over-glorified but it’s still solid and legal.

Can't, then it would be an AOW. The Shockwave is in a super specific area where it's just considered a "firearm", not an NFA item or a shotgun.

Nope, it’s perfectly legal. It’s just in an unspecified area so it doesn’t CLASSIFY as anything.

Dayton, Ohio and anytime (perhaps, maybe)?

EDIT: That said, please read and assure your state laws and Ohio state laws are ay-okay with (nonlicensed) person-to-person transactions.

IIRC, the yugo SKS can fit NATO standard... which is the same as the US spigot from late WW1.

Now I just need to find blanks (that or load launching-charges)

Right, it *is* 7.62, isn't it?

I was refering to the rifle grenades themselves fitting to a 22mm spigot.

The French held out for a bit with their 48mm spigot until 1951.
