Re: JUST REVOLVERS!

I wish I had more, but I only have this one for now. A S&W 15-3.

Love all the pics to drool over, especially the BP cap n' ball revolvers!

Walther PPQ M1

I bought this one on 2/9/12 and just wanted to write up a short blurb about it. I've only put around 200rds through this pistol. That said, I'm so far highly impressed with the pistol. It is striker fired double stack 9mm (or .40S&W if you prefer the heavier caliber). It comes with box, lock, pa...

Re: Bought My CCW weapon today. :D

I like to carry a thin gun like this in a Remora holster, wherever on your waistband it feels best and you can get the best draw-stroke from.

^I know what you mean JYD...if only I hadn't been so stupid with some of the other rifles I've run across. Age has wisened me as far as these wonderful pieces of history go.

1936 Izhevsk M91/30 Finnish capture

I got this one several years ago and I love the historical value of it. I don't think I could ever part with it. It's a round receiver, all matching numbers, non-furbed. SA marking on the left side of the receiver. I was talking with my dad about this one tonight and it's possible history during the...

My US M1917 Eddystone

This is my American baby. A US M1917 Eddystone. Barrel date is 1-18 and the bore is beautiful. Such a great shooter, too! Unfortunately the sling is a repro, Kerr No-Buckle, but everything else is all unmolested goodness :thumbsup: http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h250/TheyHateMe/Guns/M1917left.jpg...

Re: My M27

I haven't had the time or the heart to open her up that far. I should, but I really don't want to mess with this piece of history that much. I will, I just have to gather up the time and courage LOL

Re: My M27

Took a few more pics tonight. Now to get them uploaded and posted. BTW, no wings on the bolt. But the serial's on the receiver and bolt match. No numbers anywhere else. Also, this the "fat" stock.

My M27

I've participated in a Mosin forum before, but I don't know what happened to it. Anyway, I was lured here as my interest in Mosin-Nagant rifles and carbines has flared up again. I just wanted to show off my baby, a 1934 Tikka M27, both D and F marked. I've never opened her up, so I don't know any de...

Re: New Members, Make your first post here!

Hi, new to the board, but a long time of appreciating these cool rifles/carbines. I wish they could tell me their stories sometimes. Anyways, hope to be a helpful contributing member here. Thanks for having me!
