semi autos in Norway
due to regulations we are only allowed to choose from a limited array of semi autos for sport and hunting .
The list has a few interesting ones - the Vepr,the Remington 750,the Browning BAR ( not M1918) ,the Valmet Petra,HK 2000,Sauer 303.A few more too.
I want something stainless/or coated ,synthetic,accurate and with a "silencer/moderator" that I can take into the woods in a torrential rain and just shake the water off and put straight into the safe when I get home .
I want a can on it so that I can hunt and shoot places were I otherwise cant ,and its more comfy.I will accept up to ,but no poorer accuracy than 2 moa . Also it shouldnt look to combat -some of the farmers around here dont think much of guys with combat kit -and I need my contacts intact to get to use their lands.
The Dragunov is super sweet ,but sadly the Izmash model offerd here is available only in the sports category and not the hunting list in our PD bylaws.I cant be bothered to jump through all the hoops required to qualify to get it - I just dont have the time these days.I couldnt even use it for hunting -only sports shooting .The rules are annoying and seem meaningless-but we have to have AND adhere to the gun laws .They should just be different is all.
As for ,ahem,non-sporting or hunting related needs for semiauto longarms I have covered that base with a few well known sporterized articles that are widespread and that trace their origins back to a piece of kit called the M1 Garand as well as my service weapon.One day though...If I get my way.....I will have all I ever wanted in terms of iron....
