That is one cool looking Enfield

That is a sharp looking Garand . But the ping stuff is a load of crap, that is a story that was made up after the war. As much as I've shot mine, never heard a ping , unless it hit concrete.

Nice revolvers, Jim. Here's one that was dug up at an oilfield, near Hondo Tx, by my Mom's uncle in the 50's. It was given to my Dad in the late sixties. When my Dad got it, it was a solid piece of rust, could tell that it looked like it was loaded. I worked on it a long time, finally got it where I...

Yes, he was, wish he was still around. If I could figure out how to get pictures from his scrap books on this site, he has a lot of pictures that were taken when he was in boot camp in 1940, bunch of guy's mmarching, all carrying 1903's, my Dad shooting a 1911, complete with lanyard. He left me quit...

Here's my Remington 1903 with a Springfield barrel. Allen

This one for Bunkysdad, here's mmy Reminton 1917 with a Winchester barrel. Allen

This is the weapon, I like playing with, about once a month I'll go thru 200 rounds with this baby. Allen

Forgot, it's a Remington, M540X, my Dad gave it to me. Even with the open sights, it will put 5 shots into a group smaller than a dime. Allen

Finally got my camera, see if this picture will load. Allen

Welcome, and nice looking rifle, like all opf us, would sure like the rifles to be able to talk and tell there story. Allne

Sorry guys, fighting a major sinus infection, with the headaches that go with it :( :( , super cool collections , keep em coming, love looking at nice firearms. Allen

cool looking rifles, I don't even know what a type 53 is, but still nice looking. Allen

Nice rifle, gota love those 22"s that'll put 5 shots in the same hole

Cool looking rifle, Erik, love that long scope. Have to get me a camera, I've got a target 22, just can't remember what brand, or what safe it's in. Allen

Hopefully you are a long ways from the coast, Jim. The further away the better, might get a lot of rain, but maybe not the other stuff. Allen

You be careful, Jim. Hurricanes are nasty, and tornados form at the outer edges. I rode out Celia, with my parents, when it hit Corpus dead on. Brick buildings were knocked down, houses torn off foundations, complete roofs blown off houses that landed 2 or 3 blocks over. The worst part was no power ...

Yea, I had to put scopes on all my rifles, my eyes won't do the notch and thin front sight, and having problems with peep sights. Good thing, no damage to the rifles, they can all be put back to original with no problem. Allen

Well here's my milsurps, only one Mosin. Allen

Yes by all means, take him fishing, it will stay with him the rest of his life. My Dad was't a fisherman, but my Mom's Dad was and he's the one that got my brother and I hooked on fishing, as soon as he can shoot, the same thing goes. Hope you and your son can get some fish . Allen

That would have a game warden on me in aheartbeat, the fine would be horendous
