Greetings all,
I have been a lurker on this site for some time now and thought it time to say hello.
I have learned a lot from the many excellent posts and hope I can contribute something
one day as well. Located in sunny Arizona and a Milsurp collector for the past 5 years
Cheers,
Topper
Been collecting only a short time, have several mosins and a Romanian SKS. Retired from the army, the US Army and I am looking for some new interests, and C&R firearms has interested me sense I was a teenager and my hunting rifle was a 1891 Argentine Mauser rifle. Dont have the mauser any more, gave it to my brother some 30 years ago when I first enlisted. I hope to find another one of these days. Also am a US citizen, I hope you don't hold that against me.
I'm new to milsurps.com but not to milsurps, as I've been collecting these pieces of history for over 30 years.
Hello all!
My name is Jared, found this site while looking for some info on Mitchells Mausers. Looked like there was a lot of knowledgeable people on here so I joined. I have been an avid collecter and shooter of old military rifles since I was a young man. My surplus rifle collection currently includes:
No.5 Mk1 Jungle Carbine
1917 Swedish Mauser
1915 Gew98 German mauser
1903A3
1895 Krag 30-40
1935 Luger
Looks like I am going to enjoy this forum! Lot of like minded people :)
Hello everyone,
I've been lurking on here for a few months now after bumping into this wonderful website while searching for info on Warner & Swasey scopes. I have always been interested in military arms, especially sniper rifles. I hope to learn more from other members and contribute.
Hello All
New member, from LA, named Max. Just got an Ishapore 2A1 762 Nato and now want to learn everything I can about it - wanted one for awhile (all those boyhood war comics that always showed the Brits and Aussies with Enfields!!). Anyway - starting to get into WWII rifles more now and will be asking a lot of questions that I hope you guys can help answer.....
I'm new on the forum and i will try to introduce myself.....
First,i must say milsurps forum is ,for me,the most informative about UK weapons(i own a N°4 smle and aL1A1 Fal).
Also the articles file is great and the technical level is high enough for a hobbist armorer,thanks!
I also must say I'm french,living in the southern Alps,shooter and reloader(15 differents cartridges,yes,the french rules are not friendly for milsurps collectors....).I'm certain my english is far from correct,but i will try to express myself as correctly as possible!
Thanks everybody for this great forum!https://www.milsurps.com/images/smilies/wave.gif
I am a long time collector of military rifles but a novice in the information category. I do about 50 gun shows in texas a year so if there is anything you are looking for I will probably run across it.
Can anyone provide information on a ross rifle that has been sporterized and has ply marked on the receiver? It is serial number 2942. Also I just acquired a mint condition mauser 71/84 that I would like some info on. Thanks, Dan
Hello to all,
A little intro - I'm a new member from Venray the Netherlands. My name is Marco and I'm living in Venray a little village near the German border.
Was looking for some information about my Lee Enfield and Colt 45 both from the 2e WW. Found this site and read a little. Hope I can contribute some stuff but more to learn a lot from you guys.
Kind regards,
Marco
Thought I would introduce myself, My name is Ben and I am a 26 year old Process Engineer living in Kent, England. Recently bought a 1937 K98 which I am really enjoying so far, hope to learn more about these lovely rifles possibly start looking for a .22 trainer to keep it company.
