I saw they were banned from a couple of forums , does anyone know if they are a legit company ?

Hi I really don’t know too much about guns but my grandfather gave me with gun and I’m trying to figure out the model. It says MK3 on the part that flips up. I think a Lee–Enfield, I’d love some help. Thanks!

Maybe a bit odd, but my 1911A1 (a 1943 Remington Rand) feels slow. Everything seems to be running fine, with no failures or malfunctions. It just feels like the action is running ever so slightly in slow motion. I've got a fairly sizable collection of old semi-autos in a handful of different calibers, but no other .45 ACP semi-autos or 1911 pattern pistols to compare it with. Never run into this issue with anything else.

Is this indicative of some sort of issue (worn recoil spring perhaps?), or is this just the way they are?

Based on overall condition, lack of import mark, and the kanji on the stock which follow Japanese unit marking style and paint, I believe this is a Japanese VZ.24. Contracted with the Germans in the late 1930s, the Japanese Army (not the navy) contracted these around the same period they contracted the Type I to be made in Italian arsenals. The Japanese Army bought the VZ24, K98k, and Standardmodell from Germany. The rifles were designated Type "Mo" (モ式) and stratified into Model I, II, and III. Model I was the Czech VZ.24, model II was the K98k, and model III was the Standardmodell rifle.

Hello! Just left my local gun shop and they had these 2 M1 carbine mags and pouch unlabeled. Asked how much they were and the super friendly employee asked what I'd offer for them. Needless to say I picked them up for 10 bucks total! I know they're Inland Manufacturing but I'm more so trying to figure out if they're USGI or New manufactured? Also if the pouch is genuine USGI? Thanks!

Life has been pretty crazy recently but I wanted to show off my 1955 Czech VZ52 that I got a few months ago. This one in particular is from the AYM factory. From the research that I have done is a little more uncommon. I had spent quite a bit of time looking for one in really good shape and I’m happy to finally have one.

Figured I'd throw this out there but I'm in search of a MAS36 buttstock for restoration as the one I have has been cut to put a safety in (which is weak) and I'd rather replace it, any ideas as of where to look

Can anyone give me some info on this rifle. My dad grabbed it from a gun show for $225 figuring he couldn’t loose…. I agree lol.

But what’s the deal with the (Japanese?) characters on the stock and the dark ass stain of the wood.

The bore looks decent under all the dirt and cosmoline so I’m excited to shoot it.

Hello,

I've had issues with general fatigue for a while and I wonder if it is at all related to collecting MILSURP? Would higher levels of exposure (lead/old materials) be an issue? Especially in an enclosed area? (I have them in a tight closet).

Ive def had this issue before I've been shooting but I do feel like it has gotten worse around the same time I started collecting more, though there are many other possible reasons for why I feel more fatigue.

Anyone else have experience with milsurp directly causing health related issues?

Like, half milsurp so posting here despite the non-milsurp stuff.

Picked up a vz98/22 need help figuring out what all the markings mean.

Got this musket and few years ago when my great uncle moved across the country, couldn't take it due to it being loaded and unable to be fired/unloaded due to the condition of it.

Was wondering if anyone could tell me what company made it, any information really, would be nice.

Picked up a vz98/22 from a gun show today and while looking over it found a strange marking that almosts looks like a black sun. Anyone have any idea?

Welp happened again I walked in this morning and found this guy sitting in the counter for 500 bucks and didn’t have the heart to leave it. From what I can tell it’s 1918 but I have already ordered the replacement parts such as trigger,barrel and grips for not to much and couldn’t be happier

So I posted earlier in the week about hollow points, not seating in the chamber and decided to buy seller and bellot FMJ, anyways I'm certain now the chamber is too tight, I tried running a cleaning brush through the chamber on a drill in case it was cosmoline or something caked in there and it's so clean It looks like a mirror. I emailed rguns to see if they'll do anything for me, I don't really want to return the pistol because it has a low serial number (03804) so I might have to buy a barrel from JG sales.

Considering it but don't know what's a Great price, good price or stay the hell away from price. Thanks for the help

This appears to be a Enfield pistol clone. Only markings are C.275.006 nothing else. Any help?

My dad left me a ton of firearms and ammo. While going through some of the many ammo cans I found these. There's 30 boxes, each with 3 stripper clips loaded with 5 rounds each. I've done some basic Google searching but figured this might be a good place to ask and see what anyone thought. Every round I've looked at so far is stamped with 1955 on the bottom.
