Keep in mind that if the NFA went away, There still would not be anything imported unless those laws went away as well. MG42/MG3 for me as well!

My first handle was on the FALFiles. The Gewehr1 was the Bundeswehr version of the FN FAL. Also, I once wrote a paper for a history class that dealt with the many times in history that one rifle changed history. FYI, my first computer was a Sinclair Z-99 that used a cassette player for storage and hooked up to a B&W TV. Later, I got one of the first IBM PCs with an internal hard drive (4MB). I've never spent nearly that much on a PC since then!

We had a PetSafe that worked very well. Garufa stated the weakness of the wire-in-ground system. The dog learns that once their past it, they're free! With the PetSafe, once the dog gets past the set strength of the radio signal, they get a warning buzz. If they keep going, they get a shock. They keep getting shocked until the get back inside the perimeter. Another advantage is that it's portable. Take the base unit when you go on vacation and set it so your dog can't wander.

That's the Holy Grail of gun banners. Electronic controls on all guns so that the government can shut it down! About as smart as putting combination locks on fire extinguishers.

Remingtons are lots of fun. Very strong design. Swapping cylinders needs to be approached with some caution. Only use cylinders from the same manufacturer as your pistol. Also, double check that lockup occurs when the chamber is perfectly aligned with the barrel. Cleaning black powder can be a pain. Using a dishwasher is the easiest way for pistols. Just make sure you disassemble the gun, don't put any wood in the dishwasher, and run an extra cycle afterwards to ensure that your wife doesn't complain about the odor. Otherwise, use lots of boiling water, scrub well, and oil lightly after drying.

Radical idea: Did you think about getting a slide from CZUSA.com?

Hmmm. That one does not seem to have the corkscrew like the one in the video. Still, seems like a nice, but large, folder.

PM sent.

Any description of that photo? If I had to speculate, I'd say West Point or similar cadets. Blue jacket guy would be an instructor. Colt model 1895 Machine guns (Potato Digger). John Browning design, of course!

I found a few deals: 14 rounds of original .455 Webley Automatic ammo, a spare Lewis Gun bolt for .30-06 (Rare!), and a nice MP41 mag.

Savage 1907 in .32 and .380. "Ten shots quick!" with endorsements from "Wild Bill' Cody and Bat Masterson. First double-column detachable magazine, and striker fired. Extremely reliable if you remember that early .32acp, especially European ammo, was hotter than modern SAAMI spec. Also endorse the original Remington 51 .380. A favorite of Gen George Patton and others. Very ergonomic! Finally, Star PD buffers are still available here: 10 buffers for $44.95 Made & sold by: Jim Dawg 5zero3-59one-51five9 E-mail & PayPal address: bigdawgguns (at) comcast (dot) net

Poland? Dude in the middle back row has a French MAS38 SMG. How the heck would that have gotten to Poland? Arm bands look a lot like they might be FFI.

American doughboys with French M1916 37mm infantry gun. Rotating breech, single shot, HE projectile for destroying Maxim gun nests.

Took some searching. "Cattle Annie and Little Britches" - 1980 Winchester 1892 and Colt SAA

Probably from a video game. Obviously a fake gun.

Holy Moly! Those legs go all the way UP!!!

You may be thinking of .400 CorBon. It's a .45acp case necked down to .40. Pretty near to 10mm in energy figures. Easy to handload if you have dies. Conversion barrels used to be available for 1911s in several lengths, Glock 21, EAA Witness, and others.

Remington Model 8. But look! Original stripper clips on the back seat! Those are scarce as hen's teeth these days!!

There are replacement barrels that can be had. Even original Long Branch barrels have show up. If you go that route, I would send it to a professional with experience with re-barreling SMLEs. Not a job for Bubba unless you want to risk a twisted receiver. You might look for some 8mm bore brushes. The SMLE has a .311 bore, not .308. So, normal .30 brushes sometimes don't do a good job of cleaning out gunk in SMLE and 98K bores. You might also try some bore paste. I've seen barrels I thought were hopeless turn out OK after an extremely thorough cleaning.

That looks like a Winchester '73. She's got the trigger held back and her thumb ready to pull back and release the hammer. So, I would not want to be in front of the muzzle! Don't know the movie or actress. (but, YES, seriously hot!)

Kneepads look correct. MG42 is unloaded with soldiers finger on trigger. That seems staged. The front two guys also look a bit too old for fallschirmjagers. Plus the third guy is about to shoot his buddy in the back with that MP40. MP40 sling is on the wrong side of the gun.

Overall best .357 revolver: Original, pre-1980, Colt Python 4". Best trigger and balance: Pre-lock S&W Model 19 (Tend to get loose with a steady load of heavy .357 use. Under-rated: Colt MKIII Trooper. Not a Python, but pretty darn close! Best currently available new manufacture: Colt Python. Ruger certainly builds a durable revolver. Overweight and triggers are just OK. I won't touch a trigger lock S&W.

That's quite a collection!! MP44, Beretta 38, Hakim 8mm, Spanish M43 8mm, Czech VZ52, US M14, maybe a MAS 49/56 in the far right?

Portuguese paratroopers with original AR10s.
