nice rifle you have there

I got a star bm 9mm at the local show with 2 mags,it is in vg shape .either my computer or card out of camara is acting up because it will not up load the pictures.both are only about 12 years old

back in the 60's I would ride my bike to the store up the road and get them for 15cents.i have all ways wanted the bottle machine . but never really looked for one because I did not know the plastic bottles would fit.

I picked up another one it is a 1972 vendo 63. I took off the vinyl decals and painted it like the early machines.

that looks like mine .I was ready to order one and found one at a local gun show. it shoots great and I have not had any trouble out of it with ammo

I tried to sell acouple for $280 and everyone thought that was high at the gun show ,they were hex receiver

I need one more

here is the one with hand guard that I now have on it. looks a lot better

it was a 33 tika , new buyer let me look at it again

I have had this for a while but I might sell it later on. I have not made up my mind yet .it changes from day to day and I have found a Winchester garand that I am interested in. just checking to see what it is worth now.

went back in today and a guy was buying it when I got there.

getting old I forget who made it but I looked at what looks like a un restored m27 today with matching bolt in good shape with dark bore $275 was asking price on it .I have not kept up on these for a couple of years

I did a lot of searching on mine when I bought it.some places only told that they were made in the early 60's but I found some bayonet page that told more about it .they got the contract in 1968 and only issued them for on year 1969.do not rember where it was but I wrote it down at the time to go wi...

BOC stands for Bauer Ordnance Co made in 1969

I did read that some of the helmets had markings removed because they could not sell them intact. either way they are still made on original equipment just like the originals

your rivets look like german and not like the finn rivets

they had another sale acouple of weeks ago and I ordered another one. I plan on leaving it the was it came .pant looks good with a well used dirty liner. it does have the finn split pins in it that are almost to small.

I have a s/147/g mm rifle . I would not sell it unless I just had to .i have 5-6 sauer's

get ready to spend money because you will want more,i started out buying any of them but now I collect the hex recievers .great rifle to shoot

I have shot a lot of it. I was told it was made for Germany during ww2 by another axis country but I do not remember which one . I still have a lot of it. mine came lose in ammo cans.it cost was 7cents around in the early 90s when I bought it.century was selling it for $50 a case delivered.my wife t...
