Hi folks, I'm a 60 year shooter (nearly 70) and collector of mostly US WW1 to Korea small arms. Never too old to learn something new.

Hello people, I am a Newbie looking to get purchase a 270 or 308 for deer hunting. I have been using a BSA 303 british for the last few years and thought I would check out this site I stumbled on, so far it looks like a great site. I look forward to getting as much info as I can and learning more about collecting and what to look for in a good piece.

Hi All
I had no idea that there were people out there who had a thing for old military rifles. I figures mabe a few but...yikes, it seems like a whole bunch of you. I've always wanted a Lee Enfield, not the old ones from WWI but the newer version, like from WWII. I know they are accurate and wanted to sportsterize it. Well, I was at a gun show last December hoping and I found this No 4 MK 2 in what I think is grat condition. The previous owner had a from sight put on which I promptly took off. It was taped for for a scope too. So I went looking for a decent synthetic stock and that's about as far as I've got. I picked up this Ram Line but frankly it looks a little cheap & plastic. I've searched the net and was very intreagued by those colourfull laminated jobs but they were all one piece and they don't do Lee Enfields. So comrads, can anyone out there hepl me fine a great stock for my new acquisition. I also have to buff this thing down, get all (or most) of any dings out of it and then get it blued. But that's perhaps a another entry. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi All,
Ben watching on and off since last October. I've been gathering up a uniform for a sporter 1903 that we traded the wood off in the 60's, and plan on using it with cast bullets/light loads.
I like the old military rifles, and the single shots-smokeless and black.I decided to take you up on your offer to "CLICK HERE".
Thanks for an informative site.
