The mossberg came from the factory like that I would assume. I love that MKIII more than just about anything i've got. It's cheap to have ammo for and if you can shoot it accurately it can also be deadly with great shot placement. The SKS is probably the most reliable gun i've got. It will shoot without jamming in a seemingly endless manner. Doesn't care how dirty it is or how many shots i've already fired. Just keeps truckin.

I don't have my C and R. My dad and my father in law have theirs though. It's basic paperwork you can do through the ATF. The trouble is finding the right person to send you the paper work. It's hard to find info on them (at least in GA). It's a great thing to have though. My buddy that works with me is a Class III dealer. He just wanted to be able to buy what he wanted and have it shipped to his house so he got the liscence. Anything i find online I just have him purchase at cost for me. It's a nice deal.
