Current C&R Collection - World War 2

[samnev]

It seems tome the price of all bayonets, except the MN ones, have increase percentage wise more than the guns they go on. I was recent looking for a bayonet with scabbard for the Dutch Hembrug New Model #4 carbine. The best OI could do was $375 for a decent one. Even the french eppe bayonets for the Lebels and Berthiers are in the $150 price range.

That is a nice collection. Great way to show what they are. What program did you use to label them like that?
Its inspiring me to gather the ones I have bayos for a take a pic of only them. Probably about 15 or 20 of them.

A Finnish Bayonet for a M39 Mosin starts at $350. It gets crazy when you start to think about it. The only 'expensive' one I have is the 1942 UC on the M1903. I was lucky on that one and paid about 20% under market.

That is a nice set of rifles Sir. Like one of the other fellas said, put in all the leg work you can and you will be rewarded with the missing pieces.

Sooo exactly how many M1861 muskets do have? Nice collection by the way.

A very nice collection! As I am wiping drool from my face!

Wow! He not only collects long guns, he plays the violyn too. Or is that a fiddle hanging on your wall?

[gsimmons]

I also see what looks like a second pattern P1853 Enfield. Is it?

Very nice collection
The lowly Lee Enfields are smooth aren't they? Funny to hear an American say they are smoothest. I've read claims that LE's are the fastest cycling bolt action in the world.
It must be like admiring the neighbors wife, but...I'm Canadian and I find the US Springfield Krag to be a smooth as a Lee Enfield.
Of course that may be because Krags are rare up here and LE are common as dirt; mostly Bubba'd, but cheap and everywhere.
But again, an enviable collection.
