Classic sniper rifle fan, particularly anything Canadian, eh!
South store bound when it opens back up. I was suppose to go there 15 years ago. Jack Stanleys Cherry wood stock got me hooked.
Hello, I'm a new guy. I bought my first .22 rifle when 8 years old from Bud Rusk's Secondhand store in Canyon, Texas in 1953. The world has changed. I found this site while searching for information on my 30 40 Krag. I see there is much to learn here and a lot to read & study.

On and off this forum for a while as a lurker, but never got round to positing. Been shooting now for about 10 years and have taken a liking to surplus firearms alongside the modern stuff.
Under milsurps, currently have a SMLE, K31, Swedish Mausers in M96 and M38 guise and this last weekend picked up a Charnwood Ordnance 'Jungle Carbine-ish' in 7.62.
Looking forward to doing some reading here and hopefully exchanging info on the CO No 5. as very little out on the Interweb.
Regards
Mark
I have been interested in Military Surplus firearms since a very young age. I am now in my late 20's and have been lucky enough to acquire a 45 Garand, 43 Mosin PU, 43 Model 12 Trench Gun, and several M1 Carbines, which have became my primary interest by far. So far I have a 43 Inland, 43 Quality hardware, and 45 Winchester. Those little things are addictive and very fun to shoot. Excited to see what else can catch my attention like the carbines have. Cheers
Hello everybody Andy here,
im trying to learn more about Sten MK II and how to trace old weapons
New member here. I enjoy collecting and working on old milsurps.
New Member and new to collecting milsurp since I needed to do something in retirement. So far in the past year I have given a home to a Chinese Type 53 Mosin dated 1954.8 and a 1909 DWM Argentine Mauser which according to the serial number was made in 1910. I enjoy shooting these rifles as well as getting the various gear, bayonets and other accessories that would have been carried/used with the rifle around the time it was made. I'm not sure what my next one will be but I do know there will be another milsurp purchase in my future.
Hello everyone,
I am a gunsmith, amateur all my life but professional for past 15 years. I run into milsurps frequently and get a chance to buy a few for my collection, etc. Latest acquisition is a US M1 Fixed Bale helmet and liner and a Japanese flight suit, both brought back by the same vet, now deceased.
I look forward to getting questions answered by you experts!

Hi, been a long time occasional lurker, but the time has come to finally say hi (and get rid of that message telling me I should:surrender:).
