Greetings,

Long time reader, but first time posting since the move from Culver's old site. Been collecting 1903s, Krags, and European sporting rifles for many years, and using the same screen name on the various gun boards. Just want to say "Hi" to everyone.

It also happens to be July 14, so Happy Bastille Day to all your Francophiles out there. Say what you want about the French, at least they know how to deal with despots when they put their minds to it.

Liberté! Egalité! Fraternité!

Hello, everyone.

Have been ghosting on this thread to pick up tips.

Just started collecting US Milsurp rifles.

Will probably ask a lot of foolish questions - but will try to search first!

Thanks to all in advance.

Hello all.
I have been a long time collector of original medieval military items such as armour and weapons but in the last few years I have been branching out into more modern things to have a more complete view of how arms and armour has evolved over the centuries. My interest is still in armour (helmets) and weapons (rifles) though. I am particularly interested in WWII rifles. I presently have a 1944 Kar 98k, a 1943 Lee-Enfield No. 4 Mk.1, and two Mosin Nagant 91/30s (a 1931 Izhevsh Hex and a 1938 Tula Round). I also have a Springfield M1 Garand and an Inland M1 Carbine on order.
