Hi guys.... Just want to introduce myself. My name is Steve and I am an addict. A firearms addict. I can't walk into a gun shop without wanting to buy something. It started with a .22 rifle for target. It then progressed to shotguns for Trap shooting (my real passion). I went in for the hard stuff and hand guns grabbed me. Now I've fallen into Milsurp. Mosin was my first and now I have a Swedish Mauser too. I think I need rehab.
I'm surprised I have never seen this forum before. I am real enjoying the Radio!
Howdy All,
I'm a new member and a lucky one. I managed to be buying "surplus" rifles when they were plentiful and cheap....and I knew enough to leave them alone and to keep them the way they arrived.
I was also lucky, I picked up stuff because I thought it was "neat"...and it turns out I was lucky (and it turns out have a poor memory for what I bought years ago.). It's nice to go into the "military stuff" safe and find I had 3 Mausers vs. the 1 I thought I had, or 4 SKS rifles when I remembered having 2. I wonder if the stuff breeds in there?
Anyway, an interesting looking forum, hope to find I was even luckier than I thought. Turns out one of my SMLEs was a 1922 "V" trials rifle. I just thought it was a nice rifle, nice to find out it was a rarity. Nice when that happens.
Hello, I thought I would join up on this site , it comes highly recommended for it,s knowledgeable folks and content.
I have recently become interested in Enfields in particular and am looking for info before purchasing one.My only military weapon at this time is a Winchester PCMR and I wish to add to start with an Enfield, a shooter of some sort preferably non sporter and with good apperature sights.
Thanks and I look forward to being a member here

Hey guys I'm glad to be joining this forum. Looks like their is a lot of experienced folks here. I'm new to milsurp collecting. I started this hobby April 14th 2012, so if I seem stupid at times be easy on me! I have several questions already regarding a 1935 Peruvian mauser and a type 38 Arisaka if anyone can help. Thanks
