What piqued your interest about military surplus?

I always loved history and felt that Canada had been too self-effacing in teaching the facts surrounding Canada's contribution during both world wars and the Korean conflict. My dad, my uncles, and later both my brother and I all served in the military. I fell in love with the history of milsurp arms and wondered at the stories they could tell. Add to that, in my youth surplus ammo and firearms were cheap as dirt compared to today and I used to do a lot of shooting.
