Hi All: I have been reading this forum for a few weeks now and decided to join based upon the great information and the comradere seen among all the milsurp members. I have recently started collecting and find the forum a wealth of information to assist me in my endeavor. Thanks to all!

Hello, all! I'm Matthew, and although I'm fairly knowledgable about Glocks, AR15, and Remington 870 shotguns, I know very little about older military platforms. I hope to change that, particularly because my Dad has asked me to help him sell some old trainers he has. So, yeah, I'm here to get help! I appreciate anything that goes bang, and intend to raise my 6 kids to do the same!

Thanks!

Greetings from a new member. I recently purchased a gun store and although I am very familiar with new firearms, I lack any expertise in military surplus. I look forward to learning and sharing pieces that walk into my store. I am also very impressed with the diversity of this forum with members from all over the world

Hi All,

I can't believe I have been collecting Milsurps and just now found out about this site. I hope someone can summarize everything that has been covered in one posting.
LOL. Just kidding. I know there is a lot of knowledge here and I will probably ask some stupid questions, but I am so fascinated with the Milsurps. I so very much appreciate our past and present service and the people who have made this country so great. It is sad to hear the numbers of lost war service men and women. Thank you all for allowing us to enjoy this free democracy. The best of our country is in the History. Maybe we can make a good future as well.
God Bless you all,
Huckleberry

G'Day to all from Australia

This is the first forum I have been a member of so I apologise in advance as i try to find my way. Living in the bush I have grown up with guns and hunting, also competing in most shooting disciplines at various levels. Apart from the usual hunting rifles,target rifles,shotguns and pistols, I love to collect and shoot military rifles and pistols. At present I find that I am accumulating Australian,Canadian,US and UK Enfield's,P14's,M17's,1903's and 1911's.
Life could be worse!

Cheers

Been lurking here for a bit, I am a long time Garand collector (20 plus yrs.) not added to the collection for a while. Also got the Walther bug, mostly PP with a PPK or two thrown in. For now I am a resident of NH, ( a third world part of the USA) that may change, hopefully soon.
Lots of good reading in here so far. Regards to all,, Jeff T.

Good afternoon to all! I am an active police officer in Texas and owner of a couple of old military weapons. I have always been a military history buff and stumbled across this website while researching one of my weapons. I found the site very interesting and informative.

I look forward to talking with everyone about the weaponry which has shaped the world as we know it.
