    Milsurp World Wide target Comp

    A world wide Milsurp Target competition/shoot, open to all Milsurps members, its not so much a comp but to see how each Milsurp rifle shoot.

    There are many competitions we cant get to or would like to take part in but are sometimes the wrong date, place, time, also the categories may be not for our choice of milsurp, example being a WW1 Milsurp comp, its ok if you have a dated rifle but for someone who may be out that date range then it becomes a bit of a pain.

    As most members on this site are interested or have a Milsurp rifle to hand, being the serious collector or the novice or the first time owner of a Milsurp, (we have all been there at one point) I thought it would be good to have a quarterly shoot/comp throughout the year.

    If you have an old Enfield, Mauser, Nagant, Springfield, Ross, Schmidt, etc…… and can hit a barn door, the size of a an A4 bit of paper at 100 mtrs then have a go.


    Full details now on the, Range Report Forum.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    Sounds like it could be fun.

    Of course, a Ross Rifle WILL win.

    (That should get the LE guys and the Mauser fans to join in!)

    Kindly keep us posted, Bigduke6; this is sounding just a whole bunch interesting!

    Thanks smellie,

    Will post a link on all the other forums to the thread on the Enfield forum, as most Qs and As are on here, the link will save me going from forum to forum.
    I,m putting money on my M1903, scoped No4 and Swissicon K11.

    Win what? The "most obscure ex-service rifle" competition? As you can tell, that's pure jealousy speaking here - I 'd love to have one.

    But I haven't.

    So I'll just have to make do with my M1917 "Eddy" - which will spank the pants off any other service rifle of the same vintage.

    If I lock out the gas port of my Yugoicon SKS, can I count that as a "bolt action"?

    fn111557,

    I left the word BOLT out on the draft in the Range report forum, so no need to block anything. Its up and running so have a go.
