These Yugos are packing man

1941 Kar98. All matching except for the bolt (unique story, I know). The bolt looks like a G29/40 from 1940. Everything else appears to be original.

Kriegsmarine “N” on the butt plate so I’m assuming this is a beechwood with a (formerly) laminated finish.

I managed to get the gun, a case, about 40 rounds from the late 40’s/early 50’s, a box of 100 8mm bullets, 2 sets of reloading dies, and a similar year, but non-matching bayonet for 2 grand.

What’re your thoughts? Think I did okay? Either way I’m pumped as this gun completes my WWII bolt action hunt, and now my wallet can rest for a bit.

4.7x33 DM11 Caseless for the Hk G11.

Just got my first gun and it was a Chinese SKS paid 850. Did I get ripped off?

Picked up this Springfield M1 Garand Tipo 2 recently and I’m honestly blown away by the condition and overall feel of this rifle. Always wanted a Garand and this one immediately felt right after looking at several.

From what I’ve been able to gather so far:
7.62 NATO configuration
Italian/FAT markings
original cocoon storage packaging
very clean bore and strong rifling
beautiful aged walnut stock
appears to have been preserved more than abused
Serial is in the 166xxx range.
Still learning more about the Tipo 2 history and markings.
Would love to hear from anyone else with a Tipo 2 or Italian-marked Garand. What serial range is yours in and how original is it?
Also curious would you guys preserve it as-is or shoot it regularly?

My post, waste lands minute-man load out. 1954 Tula, and a Smith & Wesson Victory Revolver as back up.

Since there's an exemption in the OIC that allows natives to hunt with their prohibited firearms, would I be allowed to take said firearm to the range to "sight it in" for hunting in the fall?

Just purchased a K31 from GNG surplus. For those who have purchased from them, what was the wait time for them to process and ship your rifle? Sent them payment and pal info already.

Thanks

Just got the rifle grenade launcher, fits on K98 pattern rifles (just need to removed the front sight hood) as seen here mounted to my 1944 DOU K98k

Very snug fit, would love to try it but I dont have dummy rounds or chalk rounds, it fits 22mm NATO pattern grenades so I might try 3d printing some but those will no doubt get destroyed either by pressure or impact. Should be a fun toy!

All matching numbers in original condition, couldn’t miss it since I never seen a k31 in such perfect condition. Figure I would share this piece!

I was considering PPU PSP, but it seems to be sold out just about everywhere so S&B is my second choice.

I recently picked up a 1945 Long Branch No 4 Mk 1*. the rifle itself was in desperate need of a deep clean, came installed with a civilian butt pad, needed an extractor, a new magazine, and had bent front sight protectors. after some fantastic work by my local gunsmith here she is!

My great uncle came ashore Nan Green sector, Juno Beach on June 6 1944 with the Regina Rifles. The weapon he carried was a long branch just like this.

Here's to many years of enjoying shooting this rifle!

I have finally finished the process of refinishing my No.5 Mk 1 and pictures just don’t do the finish justice. Tried to give a couple angles to showcase the sheen and gorgeous grain. And before they say I hurt the value, I really don’t care. IMO this lil guy is the best Lee Enfield out there, a true joy to shoot and scoot around with in the bush.

Carcano cavalry, it's definitely seen some things haha. If that rifle could talk haha. I love milsurps ❤️

for those confused, its a switch, to turn your glock handgun into a full auto

no5 Jungle Carbine I got recently. Im in love with her.

1945 BSA Shirley. sling is repro.

Have one sks with the bad ace micro dot mount with holosun 507c thinking about setting up other sks with scout scope

I’m guessing the most obvious draw back is accuracy with sks and weight

Howdy folks!

The Texan is back with yet another gun appreciation post.

Today, we got the Type 97, which for a while was actually popular in Canada, and yes in this one, I did include THE Canadian Flat Top version that was available. I don’t know if you can get them anymore, but these things are actually pretty cool in my opinion.

I know some people will say:

“It’s Chineseum and it sucks!”

I know, still over here in the US I wish we could buy them, but unfortunately we cannot due to how Norinco was banned from importing rifles into the United States, and now we can only get Norinco Shotguns in here. In particular the Hawk Industries Hawk 97/982, which is better known as the H&R 1871 Pardner Pump and Blue Line Solutions BL-18

Anyways if y’all have experience with the Type 97, let me know about it!

Enjoy!

Got bored not having the bayo on as it wouldnt work with this stock. Instead of cutting out the stock I wondered about the look of a short bayonet. Chopped down a scrap spare.
