Hello all,
New Canadian forum participant here. I've been shooting for about 30 years, with early instruction from my grandparents who were DCRA shooters, followed by Army Cadets where I got into shooting Lee Enfields, the FNC1A1 and Anschutz for biathalon. A lifelong interest ensued, with dabbling in the Enfield, Snider, MH, Long-Lee and Lee Enfield chronology.
This is an invaluable source of info and opinion. Keep up the good work and have a great 2016!
Hi!
I'm not a hardcore collector but I do have a small collection of milsurps that I enjoy loading for and shooting. Looking forward to having a look around the forums and taking it all in.
Cheers!
Hello everyone,
I'm french and I'm 66. I'm collecting WW1 and WW2 US Army and USMC related items. I'm a shooter too and I shoot ONLY US military weapons. The area I live is within the Saint-Mihiel Salient. I'm sure I'll learn a lot with you and, as far as I could, I'll share information with you all. Have a good day.
Hi everyone, new to collecting, just started in November 2015. Since then I've added a Ross M1905 MK2, Springfield Model 1898, 1970 Yugoslavian SKS and 1954 Mosin Nagant M44.
I have a collection of WWII guns that I have collected over many years. I am attempting to reply to a thread by a collector Posted back in 2013 who had an Inland M1 carbine with serial # XC 43. I can give him a little information on it. I have Carbine serial # XC 42 which I obtained back around 1968 from a collector older friend who had retired from GM. Upon his retirement his Boss to whom the gun had been presented took it off the wall and presented it to him saying " You've always admired this little gun and now I want you to have it to remember us by."
Just thought that I'd like to pass this on if he still has his XC 43 carbine. I have it's mate. Thanks

Hi everyone! I've been a shooter for about 5 years but recently got back into it big time, and have started to expand my collection and learn more. In particular I've found I have a real passion for vintage military rifles which I think makes this the perfect site for me. My first rifle was my grandfather's Mauser G29/40 (98k) I inherited, and after replacing the cut original down stock with a roughly period correct WWII era stock, returned it at least partially to it's former glory. In the last couple months I've really gotten into it though, adding a Chinese Type 53, a Yugo 59/66A1 SKS, Inland M1 Carbine, and now a Type 99 Arisaka that is in a similar state to my Mauser. I hope to enjoy learning more on this forum!

Hi all, have been looking over milsurps.com for some time and decided to join as a member. I've enjoyed surplus arms since I got my first Japanese Type 99 at about 9 years old, (I'm 60 now). I've been partial to the Lee Enfield, Mosin's, with the occasional Mauser thrown in. Still like the Japanese rifles, and won't turn down any surplus arm that crosses my path! Looking forward to being a member, Jim
