Hi PhayzR

After a lot of research I found out that mine was an 1867 Bayonet for a Danish Rolling Block rifle - Bayonet was manufactured in Germany.

Not Many around

My name is Bill.I collect old Black Powder firearms as well as military arms most of which are WW2 bolt action rifles.I would like to know if there are any of you with knowledge of the Model 60 H&R Reising?Where is the Ser# on these?I looked on mine where another Blog said to look and found a number 70.

Hey everybody,
I am new to collecting milsurp, am particularly interested in the Russian family of rifles. Just discovered this site....what an amazing resource. Looking forward to learning all i can on the subject. Thanks for all of your knowledge, and willingness to help those just breaking into the hobby.

regards,

Hello. I just ran across this site and it seems to be right up my alley. I have been a military collector for 60 years. I love to trade and buy only when I can afford it. I am retired US Army and a disabled veteran. I collect mainly the American Civil War and WW II. I specialize in Confederate and German relics from uniforms to guns. I love BC-669 radios and want an enigma. Since I am over the hill everything that I have is available for the right price or trade item. I am presently building myself a Bren Gun and am in need of some small parts. :)

Evening all!

I'm new to this forum, but not new to the milsurp scene.
I've owned Lee-Enfields as well as Mosin-Nagants and Mausers, but I always go back to the Lee-Enfields... Must be because I've learned to shoot on the .22 version in the air cadets way back, so a No. 4 feels like an old friend.

Found this site while surfing for a muzzleloader kit build tutorial. Looks to be an informative forum. My interests right now are mainly blackpower but I do own several Mauser 98 rifles. They have been sporterized to calibers other than 8mm except the 8mm-06. It is a fine gun. I won't post much but will be lurking and reading to learn. Again, Hello.

Thanks for the help.Info on Springfield form cured my sick to my stomach where does this part go to feeling.

I have been viewing this web site for a while and I would just like to say Hi to everyone and thank all that have posted information. The knowledge I have gained here has help me avoid mistakes and expanded my knowledge of my military rifle hobby.
I have collected several M1's and a few 1903's. Both are a joy to shoot. I used to shoot as a young fellow, but got away from shooting for a time. Three years ago I started shooing again and forgot how challenging and exciting the hobby is.
As you can see my user name is "Bataan279". I use this in honor of my father who was a Bataan Death March survivor. He wished that what they went through would not be lost with time. Feel free to ask me about what he has told me. I will try to do my best.

Hello - just recently getting into milsurp. Hope its not too late!
I have:
Yugo M57
Nagant M1895
CZ-82
M1 Garand
Mosin Nagant M44
SKS 59/66

Looking to add to collection.

Just joined the forum. I have lurked around for awhile. I am mostly into USGI MilSurp weapons.
