1. Welcome to the Military Surplus Collectors Forums.

    Our on-line Milsurp Knowledge Libraries contain detailed reference and research material covering various genres of old milsurp collectibles. The content ranges from general non-copyrighted (or copyrighted with written release) historical documentation, to detailed high resolution photo montages of milsurp firearms and accessories. These photo pictorials containing over 15,000 pics are designed to show original and technically all correct specimens of milsurp collectibles from various countries. Our site is intended to give the average milsurp collector a place to go to compare various wood and metal markings through high resolution close-up digital pictures, in regards to a piece that they may be looking at buying, or validating the correctness of one they've perhaps already purchased.

    With the exception of the Q&A Help Forums which are open all the time, in order to fully utilize the actually research and on-line collection of libraries, we do require unregistered guests perform a fast, simple and absolutely free registration process. So, if you'd like to join our community, please CLICK HERE to REGISTER !
