hi folks; Just joined and looking forward to learning a lot from the vast amount of knowledge this forum draws on. I am interested in older milsurps, own a number of nice old WW 1 and 2 and postwar pieces ( Mauser C96, Webley 455, dewat Sterling) as well as being an avid cannon collector and have a good sized collection of mostly Webley flare guns. Weirdest piece I own is a 38 caliber harpoon gun by Greener a la Quint in Jaws. Occasional 22 target pistol shooter and just generally enjoy the shooting sports and the history of these great old guns. Like others I can remember Lee Enfields in a barrel at the surplus store for 25 each, Arisakas cheaper at 20, and a Sten at 35 bucks. Those were the days!
best regards Chris

Hi everyone,

New to the site. I am a shooter at Bisley UK. Recently purchased a .303 SMLE with Aldis scope with Purdey mounts. Trying to get it zeroed but limited vertical adjustment. Max elevation set, accurate at 200 yards. I understand that there is a way to increase the vertical cross hair if I take the scope apart. Anybody had similar issues?

Good Morning,

I found this site trying to research my Remington 03A3, which I got several years back but only recently began shooting it.

I have been a cowboy action shooter for about 20 years and one of the subsets is Wild Bunch and one of that subset is being able to shoot the 03A3.

Through the years I have also collected a well-used Garand, M1 Carbine and a Colt 1911 made in 1918.

I am lucky enough to have an 25 yard indoor range and another 300 yard rifle range near me and enjoy shooting various other pistols and rifles on a regular basis.

I'll try to do some reading on this site in hopes of getting background and information before asking questions.

Thank you!

Brand new to Mosins, looking to buy one in the near future. Decided to check out these forums. I do have a DCM Garand, that my youngest and I went thru and finally shot it recently.

Hi everyone. I have visited your site a few times and have found it to be a great site. I have purchased a number of WW2 era rifles and and from time to time will seeks your advice. I went to a gun show in a Virginia Beach today looking for an all matching Lee a Enfield. Also was trying to sell a few pistol to help pay for it. As it turns out a collector was selling a 42 Longbranch not matching for about the same price I was selling my Glock 43. We did a simply trade. I’m still in the market for an all matching Lee Enfield no 4 produced in Britain or a Savage. Again I hope I can offer some advice as many of you do....
