Good afternoon ...

I´m new on this forum, at least to public a thread.

I found this forum two years ago looking some info for a couple of rifles I got on my last duty trip in Afghanistan. Since then I´ve been trying to give my two old british history pieces a more decent condition before show them here. Now I think one of them is more or less in condition to appear in this forum.

I also collect all kind of military antiques I found out of there, from signals equipment (spanish and german ww2 ) to deact weapons (sadly and legally of course...) and related.

Best regards.

Hello all,

Have had a "sporter" no1 mk3 for about 12 years now as well as a Ross 22 trainer rifle for about 20 years, am now adding to my collection with a no4 mk1 "shooter" that has been restored/restocked if the deal goes through. Also found a no4 mk2 that I am hoping to add to my collection. If all goes well a 303 Ross will be in the cards later this year. Heard about this forum from another forum thread and saw how much info was available here!

New to this forum and firstly would like to say " THANKS " to any military members here for their service . I will be looking for a decent M1 to purchase and maybe some of you can impart some wisdom as to what to look for as well as what not to buy . Of course I want a match grade, SA Army issue for 100$ ..... other than that I'll be looking for a SA M14 and an SA O3-A3 to start off my military collection . I have two M4's , Win model 94 ( is the wifes rifle ) as well. I am retired , 100% disabled Nam Vet full of agent orange ..... but nonetheless I feel pretty good . I love my country and will continue to be willing to defend the constitution with my life against all usurpers if need be .

Hello all,

I just signed up. I just acquired a passion for surplus military arms... and guns in general... THIS YEAR! My first ever gun purchase was a 39 Tula Mosin Nagant. Second was a 43 Savage No4 Mk1*. That's all I have but I want more! It's a shame I am getting into the hobby during the panic.

I also own one handgun, a Beretta 92A1.

My primary area of interest it WWII weapons, and then Russian weapons. As an American I lament that I cannot buy a cheap Russian SKS or SVT-40, as they are two rifles I really want to own.

Ultimately I want all the primary weapons (rilfes, I can only dream of PPSh and STG44) of the major participants of WWII.

I gotta say my wife is not as passionate about the hobby as I am! And my son only rates these weapons as good as they are in Call of Duty!

Hello all!

Hi All,

My name is Michael and I've just joined the forum. I have a couple of old weapons, (1911A1 and 1917 New Service .45s) and am interested in getting a few more, especially WWI and WWII rifles.

Hi, I'm a new member. I want to ask if anyone recognizes the pictures I've attached. I got it at an estate auction and the owner was very involved in the Navy in WWII. I don't know if this phone device was from the military or what. I'd appreciate any input.

Hello all and greetings from Minnesota!

With some luck winter is over, I will be removing the snowblower from the garden tractor today and am not really sure I should. They are saying 89 degrees within 5 days from now. Gun club road should be dried out and the range open this week. Glad to join in the fun here after lurking for sometime.
