Today I learned you shouldn't draw the bolt back on an FN49 if the hammer is already cocked. The guide rod/pin only does so much. The hammer actually functions to keep the spring aligned. Where are my damn needlenoses...

Okie dokie.
Jacob Rogers
How about two rare funs?

>tfw don't own anything rare
I guess my 1910 Mexican Mauser is somewhat rare, and AG m/42bs aren't all that common.
Noah Walker

10/10 tastes, user
Joshua Martinez
I need rarer gats, but I'm too poor for obscure guns.
Caleb Flores
Jose Stewart
Argentine 1909 Engineers Carbine. They made 10,000 of them.
Brandon Myers
Nice
What is that? Some sort of mannlicher?
Michael Bell
I have three of them.
I think the Mexican ones are pretty rare, it's just that no one cares about them, that's why they are affordable.
Anthony Harris
No, it's a lever nugget. This is my rare Mannlicher.
Parker Howard
True, a lot of people don't give much of a shit about Central/South American milsurp besides FN-49s.
Jordan Lewis
I'd love to have them for the crests, but I'm trying to stay somewhat focused on my two main axes (WW2 and 'Murrica) and so I only have Brazilians.
Chase Baker
I originally wanted to collect Carcanos after I got my M91 Cavalry Carbine but decided I want to collect Latin American and Iberian guns since they all have bitchin' crests. Looking to get a Venezuelan or HueBR rifle next.
Jack Rodriguez
Apparently there's only 1000ish of these Lebanese Berthier .22 Training rifles.
Joshua Robinson
I'm considering selling this one, since I don't need two of them.
>Gee user, why does your mom let you have two Brazilians?
Most trainers are actually pretty rare.
Hudson Bennett
Newest addition

>"I don't have the time to take more pictures. If those aren't good enough, find another gun to bid on."
Well OK then.
Nathan James
I wonder if the Canadian Rangers are going to surplus their Lee-Enfields...
Aaron Clark
>I'm considering selling this one, since I don't need two of them.
Sure you do! That said if you're in the discord just post it if you want to sell it, I'd be more than interested in buying a 1908 HueBR if you do ultimately decide to sell it.
Andrew Hernandez
type 30 school rifle and type 38 school rifle
Ethan Russell
I do...but I also have 63 guns. I'm literally tripping over them, my AR drew it's first blood from my toe.
Dylan Kelly
>I do...but I also have 63 guns. I'm literally tripping over them, my AR drew it's first blood from my toe.
>63 guns
Christ, I'm at 21 and they barely fit in my gun closet.
Jack Evans
I meant the first rifle you posted, the long one.
Joshua Hughes
I have 2 cabinets and it's less than half my collection. The biggest problem is that the cabinets are not made for straight bolt handles.
I want to convert the loft near my room into an armory, but that would require moving a TON of shit out.
Jonathan Morris
Just got a second 35 gun safe, the straight bolt handles makes it more like a 25.

>tfw bubba decides he's an artist
Gavin Wright
It's got them waffle stamps all over it, that there is a nazi gun. I won't take less then 1500 whipper snapper.
Bentley Wood
Noice. How unobtanium is ammo for the Lebel?
Luke Sanchez
We're in the final stretch user. Everything is inlet. just need to get the fiddly bits back in
David James
I don't have the ability to go with an actual safe. I wish that there was an cabinet or safe option built for milsurp...
Noah Green
Easton Reyes
Get a bigger closet.
Oh. Sort of. It's a Verguiero, which is essentially a simplified Mannlicher. It's seasonal from PPU, which means it probably won't be back in stock until May. But they bring a lot over and it's not that hard to load for.
Robert Rodriguez
My russian sks is one bloodthirsty bitch. Bought it in a sadly bubba'd state, and it wouldn't stop taking chunks out of me until I got a proper stock set and receiver cover. Still one of my favorite guns though, and the only one that seems to have a personality.
Mason Peterson
Russian SKS?
Cooper Wilson
what's a good price for a ljungman lads?
Robert Jenkins
SWEDEN YES.
Nathan Torres
>Get a bigger closet.
I'm using the largest closet in the house.
Zachary Diaz
Here's my rare spanish M43. She cute
Ayden Torres
Any idea what the year of production is on this chink 54r? 1971, 67, 68?
Leo Wilson
does this help at all
Jeremiah Howard
Why does everywhere say to take off the forend of a smle before the butt? i don't see anything inside that could interfere. its just a stockbolt screwing directly into the socket?
Justin Davis
The end of the stock bolt is squared-off and goes through the receiver socket into a square recess in the aft end of the forearm. This keeps the bolt from turning and working itself loose.
Jacob Roberts
That's one dope looking Mauser rifle. I sometimes wonder if colony countries like Australia would've adopted it if they weren't forced by Britain to adopt their shit.
Matthew Robinson
Looks like the powder was made in 67 and the cartridges were assembled in 68
Angel Howard
What to look for when buying a hand nugget?
Jack Moore
Well fuck. I've let my K31 bayonet in unissued condition get rust on the grip.
Blake Nguyen
>get rust on the grip.
Huh; my M18 is actually chrome-plated on the guard and pommel. It can't actually fit on my K31 because the chrome in the grooved for the bayonet lug is too thick.
Nolan Parker
Yeah my pommel is chrome-plated but it's still managed to get surface rust over two or three square inches
Nathaniel Brown
Antique girl coming through.
How many of those are surp? I'm at 23 and 20 of those are surp.
Grayson Stewart
Decided to take advantage of the weather today and get some pictures.
Angel Campbell
Can anyone tell me about this Gew 88? Particularly looking to find the unit info. I know almost all of the markings except which unit it was issued to.
Grayson Carter
Jackson Gray
22.R.6.34
Maybe 22nd Reserve Infantry?
Cameron Sanders
Anyone know any good resources for Swedish mausers?
I found a few on armslist, but I cant make heads or tails of what I should be on the look out for.
Joseph Williams
Gabriel Howard
If they do, something tells me that Sweaty Ben will end up with them. They'll be $1200.00 because they're "thu last evaarrr!"
Andrew Barnes
GIBE
Oliver Turner
Envious of that longboi.
Ian Cruz
Because you'll bust the back of the foreend if you took of the buttstock first.
You also should never take off the foreend by grabbing the muzzle and pulling down either. You have to push the stock away parallel from the action otherwise you'll damage the stock.
Or better yet, just don't take the stock off unless it's absolutely necessary. This is how I feel about every rifle.
John Reyes
My m44 has bore cancer wat do
Aiden Gomez

Mason Long

Levi Morgan
How much should I pay for a US Property marked Mossberg M-44? I need a good .22, and thought something to scratch my milsurp autism would be just the ticket.
Brody Young
I paid $220, but then I had to get a mag, and they aren't cheap.
Eli Campbell
Just one ten day waiting period away
From owning this m24/52c
Christopher Evans
Anyone know the significance of this marking?
Anthony Richardson
Yugo factory code for the factory in Kragujevac now known as "Crvena Zastava".
Kevin Kelly
is mine broken then? it doesn't have anything extending past the socket. its just a stockbolt going into the threaded hole in the back like any shotgun would have
Jack Diaz
I wish I had one of those so badly,
>t. spic
Logan Morgan
I can't find a milsurp rifle for less than 200
Jack Cooper
go look in the past
Kayden Parker
I'll sell you a beat to shit M44 for $250.
Colton Bailey
Elijah Fisher
Depends on your interests.
Did you want a former Imperial one?
Wartime?
In between?
Arsenal rebuilt okay?
Lucas Nelson
Kinda regretting selling this one, even if it did feel like I was shooting a tuning fork
Hunter Bennett
And I just bought one. Been looking for a decent one at a fair price for a while. .303 was on sale too- fucking kismet!
Tyler Adams
Thanks. Is there a Chinese version of this pic?
Isaac Rogers
I'm hoping someone here can help me out.
I stripped down my new M96 and found this bit on the underside of the barrel.
It looks like a lot of wear for one particular spot, and the rest of the rifle looks very good, the barrel still rated in condition 1. Anyone know what this could be about? I see no rejection marks anywhere and the rifle is all matching.
Bentley Moore
Nice crest. What exactly is it?
Jack Harris
its either a rusty spot that was polished out, or someone spilled something that ate the bluing and pitted it a bit
nothing to worry about really, still looks fine and the handguard covers it
Alexander Cox
The crest of the Falangists. The Spanish civil war is pretty interesting, read up about it one day.
Sebastian Green
Jeremiah Sanchez
It's the crest of the spanish civil guard
Robert Lee
Is there any evidence of MAS 36s being converted to 7.62 NATO/.308 for the French Foreign Legion/similar forces or was that strictly a CAI conversion for the import market?
Kevin Smith
All numbers matching nugget I got recently
Not much, but i think it's neat
Jose White
Can any anons help me identify the crown on my G98 buttstock? It looks like a crown over an X but I don't know what it denotes.
Evan Miller
Josiah Cook
These are cool, I want one, I'm jelly, I only have my pleb SKS
With that out of the way holy hell they are fucking hideous
Jace Peterson
You doin' just fine b
Jacob Hughes
It was Century's fuckery.
Jackson James
Same rifle (Gewehr), I also found this on the barrel under the stock. Anyone know what the "B.I." and the little "E" mean? All that comes to mind is "Barrel Inspected" and a factory code.
Nolan Gutierrez
Just want a good example.
Jonathan Perry
dumb ass you are bending your cleaning rod
John Gray
is 450 a good price for a k31?
Chase Lee
Is there an appreciable difference in accuracy between 7.92x57 and 6.5x55 or is it really down to the rifle and shooter? I assume that M48s and Swede rifles would be on par with each other in terms on production quality and accuracy, with WW2 era Swedish Mausers being perhaps the better shooter?
I've heard that both shoot very flat out to 200 yards, but 7.92 tends to be flatter.
