Zak,
Listen, you can use it for hunting as long as Semi-autos are legal in your state. They are here in Maine as long as the magazine is blocked to hold no more than 5 rounds. Or get a 5 rounder from catalog below. (about $7)

Get a catalog from "Centerfire Systems," it is a company out of Versailles, Kentucky. You can get military surplus rifles, ammo, mags, tons of stuff from them. I get 7.62x39 ammo from them, with free shipping to my porch. They have the 5 round mags, and also a scope mount which is mounted on a new receiver cover. I have one on my AK with a 2.5 power scope. I can easily shoot 3" groups with this combination at 100 yards, standing, off hand. Also, Wal-mart carries Remington, (UMC) soft point ammo!

Good luck, Kevin
