  1. Firearms Of The Rising Sun
    I have this very unique knife, which has the head of a person on the butt and the carving of "Letye" on the handle. Other than the blade (being extremely sharp) and having the shape of a bolo knife, I am unsure of what this truly is. Wondering if this is just a simple bring back knife from WWII...
  2. The Machine Gun/ Automatic Weapons Forum
    I'm reading an interesting article on the history and development of the WWII era Corsair fighter plane. As I'm reading about the armament, I'm seeing it originally was designed for 4 .50 caliber Browning machine guns which was later increased to 6. Some later models were armed with four 20 mm...

  4. "The American Arsenal" US Weapons - Past & Present

  6. The Military Mauser Forum
    Hi guys, what are the designations of German captured Yugo M24 and FN M30? Plus, how did the Yugos rename the Serbian Mauser M1899 rifle and M1908 carbine? I saw they were called M 99 and M 08C on Wikipedia but not sure if it’s correct.
  7. Weapons of the British Commonwealth
    Howdy folks! I could use some help here. Picked this revolver up today from my LGS. Looks to be a late WWII Commercial Webley IV, but I'm not an expert on these things by any means, and the markings dont tell me much. They dont say Webley or Enfield anywhere. Any british revolver experts...
