I live in NYC so my choices for fun gunz is very limited to stay legal. I'm looking at going to a gun show this weekend to pick up a rifle that i will keep at a friend's house up there until my license gets approved in the city. Whats a fair price to pick up a Mini 14 Ranch? Or does /k/ have any suggestions as to a fun rifle that is legal on the city? Nothing to black and violent looking we already have enough of those in the 5 boroughs.
Honestly I doubt the NYPD would approve a Mini14, they don't really like anything remotely assaulty and have full discretion whats OK and what isn't

I know plenty of people with the ranch version and not the tactical. The ranch version happens to meet the requirements to avoid the ban

Honestly I'd say just leave NYC. I'm from upstate which while no where near as bad still sucks a ton.

I plan on making the move to up by the Sullivan county area in about 2 years. A one family house by me cost 900 grand on Staten island for a 25x75 lot up there I can get a lot more for 150 grand. I'm just wondering how much the mini 14s go for. I've seen them around 700-800 on gun broker.
Bump

That is basically the NY price range with sks about 100 cheaper. Honestly unless you are dead set on a mini wait till you move and get a safe ar for 450-600

Hello fellow Staten Islander.

What's good bro.

grab a NY legal AK like this Vepr here.
Or traditional-stock style AR15.

Rule of thumb is ideally 500ish or less for old models, 700 or less for new. 3 digit serial prefix tells you which is which. 180-194 is old. 580+ is new.
580s have better barrels. Expect to upgrade the rear sight with a $75 tech sights unit to get any use out of it. Still worth it because they shoot much better.

Confirmed not actually from NYC.
No guns for you. Get out of the hellhole. Then have fun. We're not talking "leave your country". Just leave the city. Much happier a few years out. You lose very little.

I looked at it and the mini 14/5f is a no go which is the folder version, the ranch is ok.
