A different arm angle seems to help.This is not so good when I (seldom) decide to go to the range and lean forward.

When sitting/squatting on the riverbank, mostly upright, or standing, holding my...

Amsdorf:

Can you visit a decent gun show in your area? Springfield etc, KC or STL?

My first LE is a #5 from "Joesalter.com", back in early '09.
His business is in NH, although he came from...

Aren't 2-groove bores a major factor? This seems to be the main problem in BT topics at Surplusrifle, Gunboards etc.

Bought two Longbranch rifles (my first) last winter. The previous #4 is an ROF...

Thanks Bob, and that makes sense.

Will keep it for a good while, despite having an SKS.

TDH:
Although I've never tried any shooting beyond 100 yards, except .22s at the river, your shooting appears to be excellent.

Congrats on your new rifle:bow:. My 'problem' is whether to sell the...

That's quite interesting Ben. Thanks. Absence of direct proof also applies to Black Hole theory etc, and nobody can prove that they don't exist.

Whenever I return from a business trip there is a...

Bodyman:
A friend bought me my first Garand at Camp Perry a few weeks ago during his match (I'm 55). Anyway, he has over 10 of his own, therefore knows which combination of TE/ME etc to look for,...

You might have already checked the CMP?
A friend bought me their Greek HXP M2 Ball in sealed cans, along with my first Garand. They have enough to last a few years, verified by the friend's buddy...

Arado: I've had a Norinco SKS for over two years.
I suspect one thing, but could easily be mistaken-if any version of the SKS had ever been used in large numbers by US forces, wouldn't the prices...

emmagee:
And that indicates that you want to have access to all of the CMP Garands.
If so, can't blame you.

What is unique is that we can shoot at a river (TN Valley Auth.) on the edge of this city: blast anything we throw in! But the only actual target shooting at the range that has interested me began...

Even though the decision won't be made for at least two months, will consider each of your perspectives.

The SKS does just as well zapping floating grapefruits from 80 feet away, and the front...

My first arrived less than three weeks ago. This is the coolest thing I will ever own/lease/rent:bow:, age 55 and don't even want a laptop-just classic rifles.

Over at 'Gunandgame', 'Garand' most...

:cheers:Congratulations!
My first Garand arrived two weeks ago, also S. Grade from the CMP. Other than the H&R op rod and trigger group, the barrel/action are SA like yours. Were your barrel or...

Interesting trip, with excellent photos. We took my son there several years ago.
May I suggest a different trip for those with less time, are much closer to Lux./Belgium, and want to see where the...

jimb16:

Could the large supply of items for sale at old prices be in an industrialized area with very high unemployment? Am not familiar with Ohio.

Were these types without the fore-cap stored in Malaysia for many years after the '56 insurgency?

My second #5 (all-matching) appears to be one of these and has the very dark wood finish.
Am a...

It reminds me of "The Village People" on acid. :runaway:

I know very little about old rifles (or new ones), but Century Arms is often described on gun forums regarding imports.
Some of the stamps state "Georgia, VT".

They imported both of my MN 44s...

Some people have already died and gone to paradise, if they can afford to shoot some of these rifle babes often.

Other than the actresses of our choice, these photos are an excellent depiction of...

Hi Michael:

You might be a long way from the Memphis area, but I handled a superb Polish 44 here a few months ago at one of the M/Germantown shows. The shows might have stopped for a good while....

Any gun websites are blocked at the downtown Sioux Falls, SD 'Holiday Inn' business center computer, and also on the computer provided by the 'Guest House' hotel in downtown Grand Forks, ND.

These...

Have you tried to contact people who own or maintain WW2 and later aircraft at Chino, CA?
You might also search for whoever imports the Czech Let 29 and 39 trainer jets.
I've seen one parked down...
