Before I order one, I thought I'd check if anyone had an extra one in their box of holsters.
Right Hand, OWB, some decent level of retention, Leather or Fobus.
I hate to sell the rifle ammo at the current obscene prices, but I need to acquire the .44 mag ammo somehow, so I'm making this trade offer.
Looking for premium Hornady/Rem/Win/ etc 240 gr jacketed HP, FP or SP. Can take some Fiocchi or S&B ammo at the lower trade value. I travel to BR and...
This is the excellent, clean, reloadable, HXP (Pyrkal) M2 ball (149 gr. FMJ) ammo from the 60s and 70s. I've found it to be slightly more accurate than the Lake City M2 ball ammo in my Garand and 03-A3 rifles. Great brass for reloading. Stored in air-conditioning since purchase. I travel to...
To salute all our Veterans, past and present, at noon today, I fired a cadenced 21 rounds of LC72 .30 Carbine ammo (acquired Saturday from Doug Bowser) from my 1944 Winchester M1 Carbine. This exercise is something I try to do every Veteran's Day and Memorial Day with a Garand or Carbine...
Just throwing this out there. My USGI M1 Carbines have become too valuable to drag thru the woods on the ATV or carry on the tractor, so was thinking of trying a cheap Plainfield M1 Carbine (not interested in the Universal). Should be reliable and have a nice bore. Will travel within a couple...

It looks like my gun show frequency is about 2x/year, since I last had a table last June:

It has been many years since I've done this. I've got a table at the Kenner Gun Show to start to sell off my collection and have loaded the van up with:
A dozen or so M1 Garands ($800 - 1200), and sealed cans of M2 .30-06 ammo, enblocs, bandoliers;
Eddystone and Winchester Model 1917s;
M96...
I'm selling off most of my collection due to shoulder injury – can only shoot low recoil guns now. This is the first from my M1 Garand collection
Pre-WWII Winchester M1 Garand, .30-06. Serial number 102743 - this was the 2243rd Garand made for issue by Winchester in April, 1941 (8 months...
WWI Eddystone Model of 1917 rifle, .30-06. Has original May 1918 barrel with a shiny bore and sharp lands and grooves. Has been restocked at some time while issued as lower stock and upper hand guard are lighter color than the rear hand guard. Small chip missing at the end of the stock inside...
I noted that the multi-service honor guard on the Capital steps were still using M1 Garands. Some had slings, and some did not. Knowing the paranoia of the SS, they were probably all welded shut or bolts removed.
For some reason I can't manage attachments or upload a photo, so here is the link...
If you ever wanted one from the army through the CMP, better get one now. Other than refurbished rifles with aftermarket barrels costing over a $1000, the last as-issued ones are getting scarce.

Mayor Mitch Landrieu and the NOLA City Council are following the example of the Taliban, who dynamited the Buddas of Bamiyan in 2001, by declaring statues representing and honoring the memories of the estimated 300,000 Confederate deaths as nuisances. Regardless of whether they were fighting...
I usually just lurk, but seem to recall someone saying it pained them to pay $10 to get into a gun show just to buy some ammo cans.
Found this guy selling ammo cans on the roadside and bought 2- 40mm for $20 each and 2 - .50 cal ammo cans for $15 each to carry tools and hunting supplies on...
Been here about 6 months now, from the hills north of Baton Rouge. Old guy likes old S&W revolvers, old US mil surplus rifles and old army trucks - see a trend?
