I'm in
Hello,
I, surprisingly have become a firearms collector. I suppose that is the way of many firearm enthusiast. Had no idea I was becoming one, but after having more firearms then one can practically use, then the name one should consider is< "collector".
I appreciate the appearance of a firearm to it's origin. It conjures up images of the time it was produced, and has a telling story.
My knowledge is limited, mostly to what the internet has to offer.
I have been interested in shooting and collecting since I got my first pellet rifle in third grade for good grades.
I was in the Army from 67 to 70, Currently have a C&R lic, and need a bigger safe.
Currently have an interest in an unusual Enfield that has what appears to be a pendulum just behind the barrel band. Anyone have a nice long interesting story for this one?
I will try and attach photos.
Also interested in purchasing a T37 flash suppressor for my M1D, with papers, which appears to have not been issued, and was purchased with all of its accessories in military packaging except for the Flash suppressor. I have the package, but not the correct suppressor for it's package. Have a M2 flash suppressor. Need the T37. You got one, or lead on one?

New member with interest in Czech VZ 24
I have a nice VZ 24 with a 1" brass disc in the butt stock. At 12 o'clock it's stamped 2 ZN, at 6 o'clock it's stamped 364. Anyone know what this indicates?
I've also been told the sling is original. What would verify this?
On left side of receiver is stamped F, then maybe a griffin image, then 26, below it are 8517E 1 - any clues on these stamps?
Thanks, JoeMC9

I'm the new boy. Not that I'm at all young. I started my collection back in the 60's.
