Got U all beat!
I've been up in a B 17 three (3) times. NEVER been in a B17 when it landed! I also have the same record for a C 46 transport.
None of which cost me anything.

What am I missing? I no longer find a way to book mark this forum!
Makes it a Royal PITA to find it and come back to look thru new posts!

IF you have an interest in and/or collect Non military reworked firearms than that is a nice one.
However IF you collect original items in "Original" condition than that pistol is a nice looking...
Since you seem to have an interest in this sort of thing - I have 20 acres in the middle of the Sahara desert for sale for only $500 an acre.
That price is "Only" about $3000+ to high.

If I'm not mistaken that equals to about $18 US - Ouch!!! And undoubtedly + postage from England.
I sent a bunch of those home just for S & Gs. At that price I've got a dozen or so I'd sell!...
The waffled 20 rd mags were meant to be used and discarded. That was what came in the plastik envelopes.
In theory you were supposed to step on the empty and crush it.
I saw them, but don't...
Not unlike several other gun & militaria web sites. Seems that there is not much traffik on quite a few of them - this one included.

Still haven't found the card for the Garand, but here is the ser nrs for my M1 Carbine & M14:
Carbine was an Inland #570013 and the M14 was a Winchester #197285. I qualified expert with both of...
Nope.

Somewhere around here I still have my weapons card for 2 or 3 of the rifles I was issued - which would give me the ser nrs for them. I remember that the Carbine ended in 13 - my lucky nr. - because...
Shot my first Garand in the Navy in 1954. Qualified with it. The Navy only had 2 grades not 3 like the army. I got the bottom one. Later, 61, changed over to the Army and qualified Expert with...
If a 1911 Navy brings that kind of $$$ then maby it is time to sell my 1913 that I've had for about 50 yrs. Mine has the correkt mag too.

What do you want for # 1, 2, 4, 5 & 7?

How much do you have?
Where are you in Colorado?

Fortunately I did not encounter any of the anti war Krap at the airport or else where when I came back in Mar 70. Had I have done so I would have very happily put the SOB, and any of his buddies, in...
What codes and years are your 98ks?
My first K98k was a byf 44, bought in 1953 from an uncle who had brought it back, to use as a deer rifle. It has long since been retired (5 yrs later I replaced...
Save your $$ on the magazine because the 32 mag will work with the 380 rd.

Hmm, guess I can play at this.
This photo is of my WW2 vintage ruskies. This is a 20+ yr old photo and I have since added several - an M38 & a couple more SVTs come to mind - but never took a new...
The medal was Not engraved when presented to you, you got to do that yourself.
There was a card that came in the box with all of the cased medals which you filled out and sent with the medal to,...
Isn't that magazine can for use on a half track?
I've got 2 M1918A2 BARs, both are Korean War mfg so I had to change the flash hidder to make them look WW 2.
I have a variety of accessories,...
Welcome aboard!
Now you are in trouble - 2 militaries are all it takes for them to breed! Next thing you know you'll have 3, then 4, then ----
Spent a little time in Ga - at t Benning for jump...
I'd be inclined to say that it is an original from what I see.
Sarge
You have an interesting rifle. I wouldn't mind having it in my bnz collection. It is an RC so the only thing that is original to the Steyr rework is the bbl/rec.
Not an SS rework. Steyr,...
I've got 2 K98k VN bring backs. One from the vets widow w/o papers - looked and didn't find them - and the other from Cambodia in 1970 with papers. Boy is that one rough!

Not at home so can't check my references, but since PP production went into the 400K range your pistol was made mid/late 44.
