Hi everyone.
Just new to here. Looks like lots of great information available here to learn. I'm glad i found it!
I love my old military rifles. Particularly enfields and mausers and have a few now. Trying to stop buying for a while...
Great to be here. Cheers.

Hi All,
I'm Bob and have been mildly collecting Lee Enfields for a few years.
Just got a No. 4 Mk. 2 from a good friend, and it's got the "Regulated by Fulton" stamp.
The serial no. is : PF196xxx. No Date stamp. So I know it's Fazakerly, first batch and maybe 1949 or 50?
Can someone advise, please?
Thanks for all the great info. that you folks provide.
-Bob

Hi all,

New to this forum. Been collecting for 40+ years...Started with a 1903A3 Springfield, and it snowballed from there. Latest acquisitions include a 1917 Springfield and a no code Walther G43 "44" marked. Looking through the posts here,I have found a ton of helpful info...Hope you don't mind some dumb questions...

Hello all,

I just found this site and have been trying to cram way too much info on M1903A4 snipers. I am going to look at what I've been told is an original Springfield A4 sniper that an older gent has for sale. I believe it has a Redfield scope on it that was pre-military contract, which I "think" is what was initially used on these???

I'm sure I'll have plenty of Q's. Any tips on what to look for would be greatly appreciated, but I will post a thread about this when I get more info on the rifle. The seller has been collecting military rifles for many years and is approaching 80 years old now. I don't want to pay too much for a put-together and I'll see if I can take some pics of the rifle. Thanks and I look forward to gaining knowledge here and maybe someday being able to share info I've learned. I'm new to the 1903A3 rifles. (The seller has some of those for sale too, and was agreeable to a "package deal" when I brough it up.)

Hi all.
Just signed up today. Great amount of info on here. I am a pistol and semi auto shooter-up until now, but I have just purchased a FR8 mauser and cleaned up the stock and now am hooked on service rifles.
I would love a no4 and a no5 LE in the future and hope to learn more on these rifles before I make a purchase. I shoot short course IPSC and would like to get into Service Match here in NZ in the near future with these rifles.

Am amazed at this website.

Thanks all.
CJD.
