In 1962, at age sixteen, I purchased my first M1903A1 in Albuquerque. They have been my passion to this day ! I have a question to start off my exploration - Were some of the national match 1903A1 models drilled and tapped for the Lyman M48 receiver sight ? If not, how does it affect the value if all other characteristics are all correct ? Secondly, were star gauge barrels ever installed on non-national match rifles ? I respectfully await any information on this subject.
Hello to all on the Milsurp Forum. I am looking to learn and to offer up my knowledge in a new environment. :wave:
Hi,
New here, and I guess a rookie collector with a lot of questions for you experts. You'll read from me...
Regards, Bert
:wave: I want to rid myself of my 100 rounds of old army .303 ammunition. Headstamped A79. Any offers? I saw D.J. mentioning the value, maybe he would be interested.
Just purchased my first military type weapon. Bought a NPM .30 cal carbine from a private seller. Is a good shooter but not much to look at. Makes me happy though. I am not a collector just a shooter.
Hello everyone.
As my name would suggest I am a huge milsurp buff - particularly with WWII Japanese items. I am happy to find a Canadian forum dedicated to one of my passions and look forward to being part of this online community.

Hello to all Milsurps Members.
I hope this is a good time to also post my first question, so here goes.
I have collected firearms for over 45 years and decided recently to downsize.
While going through my storage area a came across an item that I had forgot was in my collection. At first glance I thought that it was just another typical aluminum constructed AR15/M16 20 round magazine. When I turned it over I noticed that the "slot" is not normal sized. The slot is very narrow, so I turned it to the bottom plate and it is marked as follows:
AR-18, ArmaLite INC
Do any of you Members have information on these ArmaLite AR-18 magazines?
I have tried, with no success, to determine how rare the item is and the value.
I can find no internet records of availability or cost.
So - what do you think?
Thank you for your advice and feedback.
Best Regards,
Robert - Missouri USA.
