Hi,
Logging in for the first time. Currently researching the options for acquiring a .303 - either a LE No 4 Mk 2 or a P14. Not helped by UK firearms laws.
Used both Enfield No 8 & No 4 Mk 1 long ago in cadets and then L42A1 while serving, so am a long time enthusiast for the LE

Hi all,
New here, recently started buying older military rifles/carbines. Most of my knowladge is AR15/M16 related. I started with newer ar's then nodak started making retro's, then I started looking into other older military rifles and got hooked to the history behind these weapons.
So here I am.

Hello everyone! Greetings from Maple Valley in the beautiful state of Washington.
Love the Garands, and I'm looking forward to learning even more about them via this Forum. Seems like a very good group of friendly and experienced folks reside here.
Most of my interest has been in collecting and shooting Colt and Smith & Wesson revolvers, but a renewed love of the M1 has become a great source of enjoyment recently, and I've become especially enamored of creating my own hand-loaded ammo specific to the rifle. Its a fascinating study of it's own.
Thanks for being here--
Tony
hello everyone, you might recognize me from surplusrifle or gunboards. I love collecting any model of military bolt action rifles, i currently have 30 or so. I guess you could consider me a beginner compared to some of you guys :D. Anyways, I hope to learn a lot at this site as i have others about the wonderful surplus rifles we collect :beerchug:
New member here, have been shooting since I was outa diapers! My love affair with the M1Carbine started over 40 years ago, so I figured I should be right at home here!
Hi all, I just found the site and registered, looks great!
I got my first surplus rifle in 1969 at the age of 14....a Model 95 Mauser, and I'm still at it!
Here's a pic of me shooting my oldest one, an 1877 vintage Dutch Beaumont-Vitali:
