The Vz. 58 is a 7.62mm assault rifle designed and manufactured in Czechoslovakia and conventional into service in the late 1950s as the 7,62 mm samopal vzor 58 (“7.62mm submachine gun model 1958″), replacing the vz. 52 self-loading rifle and the 7.62x25mm Tokarev vz. 24 and vz. 26 submachine guns. The vz. 58 externally be similar to the Soviet AK-47 but is internally a completely different design based on a short-stroke gas piston.
Design details – Operating mechanism
The vz. 58 is a selective fire gas-operated weapon that bleeds expanding combustion gases generated in the container from the ignited cartridge through a port drilled in the barrel, 215 mm (8.5 in) from the board room, aperture into a unfilled cylinder located over the cask that have a short-stroke piston. The vz. 58 does not have a gas monitor and the full strength of the gas pressure is exerted on the piston head, propelling it toward the back in a single impulsive blow. The piston is driven back only 19 mm (0.7 in) when a take on on the piston rod butts against the seating and no extra group is workable. There is a light go back spring held between the piston bear and the seating which returns the piston to its ahead location.
The locking system features a falling breech lock hinged from the bolt and housed in the bolt carrier that contains two locking lugs which descend into and engage locking shoulders in the beneficiary’s internal guide rails. The weapon is unlocked by the short tappet-like stroke of the piston rod as it strikes the bolt carrier and drives it rearwards. After 22 mm (0.9 in) of unrestricted travel, an wedge-like surface on the bolt carrier moves under the breech locking piece and lifts it up and out of engagement with the locking recesses in the steel body.
The rifle’s iron sights consist of a fully adjustable front post and a tangent rear spectacle with a sliding notch with range denominations from 100 to 800 m, graduated every 100 m. Besides this, the left side of the rear prospect leaf is marked with the letter “U”, for snap shooting, firing at moving targets and night combat at ranges up to 300 m. The front picture base also serves as a mounting platform for the vz. 58 edged bayonet.
Additional equipment supplied with the rifle includes: 4 spare magazines, a magazine pouch, vz58 bayonet and scabbard, cleaning brush, muzzle cap, oil bottle, unified sling, front view adjustment tool and a threaded blank-firing adaptor.

Few questions I would like to ask, 10 points to the best answer. And before I list my questions, the intentions of buying a gun is not for wreckless USAGE, yes I am mentally stable, and yes I am a college student. So with that said
1. Whats the highest caliber gun I can buy at my age? Semi, auto, shotgun? auto shotgun perhaps?
2. Where is the best place I can buy this, in the Los Angeles area?
3. Can I store this gun, lets say in the trunk of my car? (Acura TSX?)
4. Do I need a register a permit or license to own my gun, and if so, how long does it take?
5. Is Big5/Walmart (hardly any walmarts in the LA area, but a lot of Big 5) good places to buy shotguns and rifles?
Thank you.

Hypothetical Situation:
If a violent angry mob was to storm your home and attack it, which of the 2 would you pick to protect yourself and your loved ones?
I’d pick the semi-auto. All I have to do is pull the trigger, I would get tired quickly after having to pump the shotgun action several hundred times.

I never will understand the logic in preventing someone under 21 from buying/owning a handgun "depending on the state" will somehow prevent shootings in this age group? But when your 18 and up you can just as easily buy an AK semi auto rifle or a 12 gauge semi auto shotgun that can maim and kill large groups of people much easier then a typical handgun ever will.
Yes I have heard the handgun is easier to conceal BS.You can just as easily take a guitar case or a large gym bag have the rifle put in and not be alerted by anyone if you casually stroll through a shopping center.And if someone intends to commit a massacre all he has to do is pull the rifle out of the bag and open fire and if he is highly skilled with the rifle he can put a large number of people down with controlled well aimed shots with the rifle.
Even just going on a full on rampage will end up with people dead and police still taking time to respond.
If we trust 18 year olds with rifle’s and shotgun’s why not handgun’s?
Give me a logical argument why you think the 21 law on handgun’s is logical and constitutional?

I was wanting a 12 gauge shotgun for home protection. Nothing expensive so I found a mossberg 12 gauge pump action for 0. Then I looked at a 12 gauge tactical for 0. its got the pistol grip with adjustable stock and a heat shield on the barrel. Then I looked at a mossberg 930 12 ga. semi auto with breecher for 9. Any ideas which one of these has an advantage over the other, or any ideas for something else that is a good home protection weapon?

The semi auto shotgun is imported from china and was distributed by century arms, I only have one 5 round magazine and would like more, I also want a pistol grip stock that fits it.

I’m looking to by a gun for home defense purposes, and am also looking to possibly start a gun collection.
I have been looking at the Mossberg 500 (the cruiser and the tactical). But I am interested in the Benelli M4 semi-auto shotgun.
I feel like the Benelli would be over kill when it comes to home defense, but would be an interesting part of a gun collection.
The downside is that the Benelli is about three times as expensive as the Mossberg.
Which would you recommend?

I’m looking for a 12 gauge shotgun. I had a Mossberg 500 with a 28inch barrel. I wasn’t happy with the recoil. I felt it had more kick than my Remington Woodmaster Model 742 30-06 does. Is there a shotgun made that has little recoil, that cost no more than 0?(pump action or semi, I do know semi auto tend to be more pricey. But just wondering if there are semis in that price range too)
Would a Benelli Nova cost that much?
I shot my cousins Nova, it seemed to me that it had way less recoil than my Mossberg did.
I should that I dont mind a used shotgun. The Mossberg 500 I had was used. I paid 0 for it at a pawn shop in Reno, Nevada.
Chris_from_LA- When I say "I had a Mossberg 500…." It means, I no longer have it. I traded it for the Remington Woodmaster 742 30-06.
