Alright you've outdone me, I'll admit lol. Mine isn't that extensive on my m48

Is 7.5×55mm Swiss more available for reloading? Unfortunately I had to sell my m95 to fund a truck and I still want a straight pull rifle which is why I was considering a k31 instead of another m95.

post it.

Absolutely. PPU is cheap and plentiful for brass, and you just use standard .308 bullets

Hey you're my same year swede twin user. Get any new surp?

I'm at work so no milsurp.
It's good, about what happened in the "Greater East Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere" after the Japanese had surrendered but not been militarily defeated in most of Asia, the postwar independence struggles and how Japanese soldiers still in-country affected the incipient conflicts on both sides

Someday I'll finish Larteguy's "The Centurions" and Oakley Hall's "Warlock", but I've been writing more than reading lately. About to buy "Roadside Picnic", Isaac Babel's "Red Cavalry" and Denis Johnson's "Jesus' Son", but I don't know when I'll ever read them. Maybe during the summer.
Nope. Got a line on a couple of auctions that have some promising prospects, though. If only the bastards would post pictures. You?

Well fuck my life, Anons. The Long Branch No.4 I bought in September turns out to just be a fucking WALL HANGER. Some bubba scraped the shit out of the chamber and through that and wear it's non serviceable. So I'd have to find the money to get a new barrel and have them swapped.

What exactly did they do? Is the chamber so badly damaged that it would make it unsafe to fire?

Just got paid so I bought a Spanish mauser m1916. Still being shipped but I'll most certainly be posting once she arrives. Looking at some listings that include a K31, Ljungman, and a Finnish p26.

Looks like they took a punch or something to the chamber, there are several nicks I failed to notice on the chamber face until I shot it in November. Had to get it checked out because every case stuck, was hoping it was just headspace and I wouldn't need a 3 or 4 head. That's still a bit of an issue but there's bulging at the rear of the case, a small crimp at line of the neck and shoulder at one point on the cases (which I missed when looking over my brass) as well as other little signs on the brass of slight flash back in the chamber. Gunsmith advised against shooting it further by saying 'how much to you value your eyesight.'

*Do you
And by the sound of it there were other marks in the chamber that I couldn't manage to see myself aside from just wear despite it not looking very dark.

Most aren't "unissued". The Yugos weren't making guns for no reason at all. Most guns that you see that are "unissued" are issued guns that got rebuilt and put into storage. The Yugos were very meticulous about maintaining their guns. More people would know about this if dealers and importers actually cared about handing out the log books that each gun had. Every log book tells when the gun was made, what parts were replaced and when and when they were packed in cosmoline, when they were checked and repacked in cosmoline, etc.

Have a buddy in Zagreb, he tells me that his high school had mandatory arms training and they used the K98/M48. Basically each school and large factory were required to keep them on-hand for SHTF emergencies.

BTW, lot of Yugo SKSs came from Croatian police confiscations

Yeah. Guy has some other stuff I might end up buying too. Really nice 28-30 Mosin.

If responds I hope he says somewhere in the PNW.

Years later I finally have all the Japanese long rifles I've been looking for.
Type 30 trainer marked
Type 38 late war
Type 38 1st series trainer marked
Type I
Type 99
vz24

I've sorta given up on a type 35, type 2, and type 99 long, maybe if I see one at the right price I'll add it. I personally haven't seen any type 2's with the mum intact.

Next is the carbines, Already have an early type 44 just need a 30 and 38

Type 99 longs come up ever so often. Don't fall for the flower meme.

And if you really want a unicorn, try to find a Japanese K98k. The IJN contracted out 30,000 of them. The problem is, that they were taken straight off the German assembly line and are marked exactly the same as any in German service. In fact, the Japanese stipulated this because a couple years before the Chinese had contracted out K98ks, but they used substandard and rejected parts for theirs.

Seethe more faggot

Neat.

Yugo M98 for $475 maplebucks. Good deal or nah? If I understand correctly, they're basically a K98 that was captured by serbs.

Should I buy a Type 99 long for $375? It's got a mismatched bolt, no cleaning rod, sling, monopod or dust cover, but it has the AA wings. No mum either.

You're basically buying a garbage rod with no collector value. It's gonna be shooter-grade and appreciate very little in value. However if you just want to spend as little money as possible to shoot one, then it is a good option. But I take it being /msg/ that you want something to collect.

Anyone bought an SKS from Sweaty Ben this week?

What next?
