Hi folks,
I just joined up to milsurps and wanted to say HI.
I believe pics of one of my rifles has been on here before I actually joined, thanks BadgerDog..... I recognize some of the names here, and some of you probably know me from CGN... I've got the same handle.

Looking forward to checking out the site!

Hi All - I am having a problem with an SVT 40 that will not eject. I have adjusted the gas port to max and I have to use my boot heel on the cocking handle to get the round out. What must I do?

Hi everyone,

Old guy - new collector - have always wanted Garand and carbine. Finally got to the point where I can start looking. Picked up a pretty beat up Inland with 801XXX serial number. At least scrolling through the auction sites keep me out of trouble (well, not spending trouble!).

Is there a "center" that has a compilation of fake parts/dealers to avoid?

Thanks for all the good info so far!

Hello,

I am sds from France.

I am very happy to be with you on this great forum.

Retired french paratrooper, I can help you with french military rifles if you need.

Sorry, English is not my mother tongue but I'm learning it to read and to try to talk with you.

I like very much Lee Enfield Rifles and I think that you are lucky guys to live in Canada, where lee enfield rifles and parts are common.

best regards
sds

Hello, a pleasure joining you all as a new member. I am interested in antique (19th C) Martini Henrys and Mausers at the moment. Would love to hear what is your favorite arm and why?

Hello All,

My name is Steve, and I hail from Victoria BC. I have just started my collection of milsurps, and so far I have a lovely 1951 Tula SKS, and an 1890's Lee Metford Mk.II Sporter. I am looking forward to hanging out here, and searching out knowledge!

Cheers
