Hello.New member here or rather I joined some time ago and have been stalking since. Must say I've learned lots from you all. I've been collecting and shooting LE's for 18 months now and have 2 smle's(Enfield 1914 mk3 and 1918 Enfield mk3*), P14, '43 4 mk1 Maltby,'42 LB 4 mk 1* , '54 4 mk2 and L39. I'm looking for a nice Long Lee I can afford now. So much to learn but thats the fun of it. Cheers all.

Howdy! New member here from the tepid warmth of Arid-zona! Am an avid collector of things that go boom. My most recent acquisition was a Rockola M1 Carbine (seems to have all the right stamps and cartouches). I'm currently in the market for a M1 Garand or a M1A. I'm leaning towards the M1A since I prefer rifles with box magazines.

Hi there - I'm relatively new to collecting and just got my C&R FFL, but already know that I'm going to need to find more room and money. :-) I'm originally from Pittsburgh PA, but now live in the Bay Area of California... and hoping the laws don't eventually force me to move. Because you just can't beat the weather and things that can grow in the garden here.

I've been lurking on the site for a while, getting lots of good information.... so figured that it was time to say hello and THANKS!

Hello all, new member from Canada, found this Forum researching my sks which appears to be a 51 Tula.

My son renewed my interest if firearms last fall. Turns out my main interest is military surplus. So far have Mosin, Russian SKS and SVT-40. Will eventually add K-31 and Swedish Mauser. Very interesting forum.

Hey there, I have been interested in WWII since I was a kid and started collecting firearms from the war last year; specifically I find myself most interested in snipers. I've since picked up two of the Aim Mosins: a 43 Izzy and 43 Tula. I also have a VZ24 sniper without the scope (I think it's real), and just bought a Finn M39 sniper (haven't received it yet, I hope it's real). I also have a few non-sniper related WWII firearms: Type 99 Arisaka; Type 14 Nambu; M1 Carbine.

What brought me here is my search for the VZ24 scope. If anyone has a lead on one, please let me know.

Guys good day

Long time watching first time responding, excellent and informative web site I can see myself spending a lot of hard earned cash now I find the information I am looking for.
Working in Afghanistan I don’t do a lot of shooting or collecting but while I’m out here I can keep up to date with good information and links to help the time fly buy.

Keep up the good work Lads

Just so the moderators and other members know I'm not a "bot", I thought it would be worthwhile to add a post. This site is such a great resource for people that enjoy historic firearms. Keep it up!
