Hi everyone, another newbie from Nevada excited to talk guns. Been collecting 20 years, mostly old stuff like .577-.450 Martini Henry, 45-70 Trapdoor, 30-40 krag, .303 Lee Metford, but some newer as well like the Lee Metford's great great grandson, the L42A1. I reload and shoot most all of 'em (trying to track down brass/load info for the Lee-Metford), and am thinking about selling the L42A1 to buy an M-1. Well, cheers everybody, Greg

Title says it all. Lurked a bit and finally decided to join. My two milsurps to date are:

NPM M1 Carbine (4,1xx,xxx) I've owned since 1977 and an HRA M1 Garand (4,7xx,xxx ) Correct Grade M1 Garand I bought recently:


Served in the US Army from '67-'70 in Germany, RVN, and stateside. Commanded an M-48 tank almost identical to this one in RVN 9/68 - 6/69.

I am newbie to this forum. I have visited before and found the forum very useful with lots of good information. I thought now would be as good of a time as any to join.

I am sure I will have many questions to ask the professionals since I own a WWII Remington Rand pistol.

I enjoy collecting and shooting all forms of surplus firearms. After bouncing from site to site, I found this one to be the most helpful / informative.

love the site. Just found out how to adjust the gas port on my new SVT, thanks to you!! Also remembering the sacrifice made by so many on this side of the pond. Thank you all. History is the best teacher. Scott
