I have a great Crossman air rifle.

I'll let him tell you, but it was a sweet shooter at the range yesterday. Its dead on, and the recoil is really managable..Originally Posted by Scaar.at
nick, heres the collection I finally have a pic (though its missing the) from the top: 1943 m38 Mosin Nagant w/ ATI stock, Ruger 10/22, 1977 Norinco SKS, Ruger M77 .270, Savage 111 30.06. And the pistols: Sauer and Sohn Montana Marshal .357(unknown date, if anyone has any info on these find me), 1975 Ruger security-six .357, Belgium Browning Hi-Power 9mm w/ ramp sights
Nice. Avid hunter?
Just kinda getting into it. It started off as target shooting and now I'm moving towards hunting. They're just fun to collect. Next is a 1911 and maybe an M1 after that. Im applying to the Sheriff's Department after I graduate in Spring 08 so I assume I'll need a duty weapon then too... It just keeps getting more and more fun
Watch out for the 1911 addiction. It's unstoppable. To me anyways.
heres a better picture of the pistols: same as before, but I forgot the 1976 Highstandard Sportking
Ya, Im feeling it with the other guns, but I'm sure when I get into the 1911's that I'll really feel the addiction. There are so many models and options to choose from, haha

Nice collection, Irish11. I always have the urge to shoot a single-action revolver after I watch a spaghetti western.
I took the modern ak-74m plastic bits off my gun and put wooden akm ak-74 hardguards and pistol grip on.
Lets see the firearm collection
This is old scope and stock
Magpul stock and Nightforce scope 3.5-15X56mm
That old scope ended up on this SPR Sweet 16 upper
Service rifle is Armalite AR15A4 with a IDF Colt M203
7.5" CQB with Doctor optic
IDF Colt M203 on standalone stock with hard plastic round
some pistols
New to me S&W 29-2 4" 44mag

thank you
carry on
shoots great!!! next week gonna take it out to a 500 range and see how it does. i found out a local Gun range hosts CMP events every month, so i now need to sign up...and also buy another garand.
yea i want another one, but my list right now goes, Uberti S.A.A., another 1911 and then a M1 Carbine, may be awhile till i get it. Oh yea and a Savage Stevens bolt action in .223. then maybe another garand.
whats cooler than a Garand???
Irish...some cool guns. i liked the Ruger Security Six, i'm still not a fan of Double Actions though, it was much easier to fire it single action. cool guns, the mosin is a ****in dragon.
Well it's probably NOT cooler than a Garand, but I suppose it depends on your perspective: a mint Afrika Korps NCO tunic for a Luftewaffe 88 gunner. Actually, both the M1 and the tunic have appreciated considerably since I made the sale/purchase, making me wish I didn't have to give up one to buy the other.
But, I guess that's life.
By the way, I also have an M1 Carbine and a 1903A3 Springfield. I won't make the mistake of selling those, like I did with the Garand.
how u likin the Carbine? got paid today lol and i started up my "M1 Carbine Fund"
my "Single Action Army" Fund is almost complete too lol. I've always wanted an 03 Springfield, never seen one in a gun store up here, only seen 1 at the WAC gun shows. i just may have to join the CMP to get one.
also if u can, post pics if you haven't already.
I love the carbine, as well as the 1903. Both are near-mint condition too (I doubt that either saw action anywhere).
I originally had a Universal .30 carbine, which I had traded a semi-auto Sten for. The Universal sucked (don't get one, mine actually blew up on me while I was firing blanks through it in a WWII reenactment), but it came with a sh*tload of magazines and ammo, which I now have for my GI carbine.
Unfortunately, I can't post pics of them, because I'm in Japan (until April) and the guns are at my dad's place in Oregon.
