Is feeding my addiction for knowledge. A quick thanks to all who contribute to this knowledge base. I am new to milsurp collecting but firmly hooked thanks to those here who share the passion for preservation of historic arms. I will be posting looking for information on my collection as I seek to complete it.
Greetings from Mississippi

Just a note to say hello , looks like a great forum , should suit me down to the ground as I collect and shoot all sorts of ex military pistols and rifles . collect machineguns too but unfortunately they have to be deactivated here .
Also love reloading for all the firearms I own . Last count I had 7 reloading presses .
don't know how many calibres I shoot - lost count .
Love my Lee Enfields but can't get them to shoot as well as my swedish Mauser . am playing arround with a Finnish Nagant, and have an argentine 1906 on order.
Also collect Lugers and P38's
Well thats a start !! LOL

Hi folks,
Ex-Army cavalry officer in Missouri. Been lurking and learning from this forum and others for some time, but just bought my first WWII Garand (almost totally correct too!) and knew I had to join up. Trying to collect milsurp US Army primary handguns and long guns from Civil War to present. Got the bug recently when I found out the Walther PP I got from my grandfather is actually a rare first year Reichsbank model. Hooked from then on. Also have a RR 1911A1, CZ75, and going today to pick up a Beretta 92F!
Hope to have years of fun with you guys! (I'll be writing from the poor house I'm sure...)

Hi, i'm a grandson of WW11 vet looking for info on a treasured trophy and stories from others in similar situation. Also, looking for accessories avail in Canada if possible. My grandfather was with Ontario Tank reg't and took from captured German an M1 carbine made by GM in 4 - 44. This was after the "Battle of the Bulge" and I understand many arms drops were made which inevitably resulted in German soldiers using allied weapons out of necessity.
I hope i don't have to be too paranoid here knowing our totally f@#ked up laws, don't want suits or uniforms knocking on my door if you know what i mean. cheers!
I'm new to milsurp and looking for answers to questions I have reguarding a Ross 1910 M-10 MKIII in .303 cal. It was given to me about two weeks ago by a friend who "inheirited" it, and didn't want to ..."mess around with some old war gun...!!!" Any help will be greatly appreciated !
Hello All! I am new to the forum and look forward to learning from everyone here. I have been collecting chopped up/Buba'ed :move eek::move eek::move eek:Mauser rifles for years as an inexpensive basis for gunsmith projects. Recently I have found several SMLE's that needed some help to be restored. My latest interest is the Martini's. Hope to find some soon.
Thanks,
Hello to all. I joined here awhile back, but never spent any time here on milsurps. I hope to learn all I can.
I own a few surplus rifles and have had a few issues, but that goes with the nature of old and used fire arms.
Cheers for now MK
