  1. The Collector's Forum - Mosin Nagant HQ
    Forgive me if this is not where this post belongs. If this is better placed elsewhere, let me know and I will move it there. Before my father passed, he gave me a few rifles from WWII that I assume he had gotten from my grandfather who was injured in Germany. I could cobble together a cool...
  2. Swiss Weapons Forum
    Hey! I just got my hands on a sweet Vetterli and I'm trying to identify the manafactured year. For what I read here (swissrifles dot com), it may be a Model 1869 since it has the loading gate, loading mechanism where you have to remove the trigger guard and the exact same lenght. The serial...
  3. The Military Mauser Forum
    Paul Mauser tried some seventeen rifle designs during the period 1898-1914. According to known sources such as Rough Forged and Mauser Pistolen, his (semi) automatic rifle development could be divided into five stages: 1. C98, short recoil+flapper lock 2. C02, long recoil+rotary bolt 3. C06...
  4. Firearms Of The Rising Sun
    I recently traded an RC K98 for a type 99, please pardon the ignorance... all I know is that it was made in Tokyo arsenal, and likely towards the end of the war. While the metal and wood are finished quite hastily, the rifle feels very tight and the parts mate together well; definitely good...

    I got it as a present from the army unit I commanded in the IDF. Do you have any idea what type of rifle this is? Which model? Which company? I couldn't find anything written on the gun itself.
  6. French Firearms Board
    Hi everyone, I am wondering if your FRF2 rifles’ wooden stocks are very smooth to the touch or not. I have received my rifle and the wooden stock is smooth for the most part and sticky on some areas. I want to find out if this is original finish. Also, does anyone know a good reference book...

    Need to find this screw for one of my lebels but I can not for the life of me figure out what it's called. Screw is on the left side of the receiver. Example picture below. I'd greatly appreciate any and all help!!
  9. Italian Firearms Forum
    First time post here but a few months ago I was at a gun show and saw a bunch of carcano m91/28 with missing parts. In the pile of junkers, I saw a lorenzotti m91/28 that was missing barrel bands, the top hand guard, and the front sight. The curious part was this gun had an A prefix dated 1931...

    I’m looking for someone who may be able to give me some additional info on a used firearm I’ve recently purchased. What I know: -It’s a Parker Hale Safari Deluxe. -There is a stamp on the barrel of a crown w the letters BNP stamped under it -Info in the barrel also identifies it as a .308 WIN...
  11. The Military Mauser Forum
    I was wondering if someone could tell what rifle is in this photo. I thought this was a really interesting photo and noticed that the barrel bands look different than a K98k, is this a pre war rifle?
