Hi, My name is Travis I have a 1942 Lithgow smle3 for sale.:slap:

New to this Board, Been collecting for about a year for Milsurp Rifles
I found this site doing a search for info on Mosin Nagant 91/59.
As of now I have in my collection 3 Sks's-Russian/Yugo/Norinco/
and 2 Mosin Nagant-M44/M59. It has been a good year for me as far as having the Fever. I will post pictures tonight of the girls. For now I will read allot and learn in this forum. By the looks of this sight, it is a wealth of info Thanks for letting me in.

Hi there, 1st post though I joined a wee while back while checking on a new arrival, the best kind, one I was given. I've been a shooter & part time collector for several decades now, more the former than the later though I run to a LE No5 Mk1 (JC), No4 Mk1 (Longbranch), 1896 Swedish Mauser (6.5x55), Siamese Mauser (8x52) & a couple of 1898 Pattern Mausers, 7x57 & 7,65x53 (1909 Arg) as well as a P14 Enfield, all these in original or nearly so condition. I also have some actions & sporterised (bubbarised :) ;) ) examples too, the new arrival is one such, as far as I can figure its a No1 Mk1 action, once had a sliding cover, safety on cocking piece. It has at some time though been rebarrelled which was how I found my way here, trying to ID the barrel, it may be a Lithgow Mk3 heavy (sniper?) barrel, certainly heavier than a standard LE barrel. With a Mk3 style tangent rear sight, thumb wheel elevation adjustment & knurled knob to adjust for windage. A beautiful bit of craftsmanship in my book. Some fascinating stuff on this sight & I'll be spending some time here from time to time.
Steve.

Hello all....

I'm John and I've been collecting firearms most of my life. I'm particularly interested in military surplus weapons. I live in "The Peoples Republic of Illinois" (don't hold that against me;)) and do my best to change the messed up gun laws that we have.

Looking forward to interacting with and learning from the folks on this site.

Greetings all new member been collecting for around 15 years,of course funds dictate what and when.
