g00b, I placed an order for an SU-16CA. They are hard to get right now. I've been waiting a few weeks with no word. If you see one, grab it. After a lot of research, it's the best buy for a .223, especially in CA. I would like to have an AR-15 but they are too dang neutered here in CA. If I want to make a loud boom I will shoot my Mauser or Mosin's. Oh, I have an SKS and it's fun to shoot, but 7.62x39 ammo is scarce right now.
