Just added to my collection

WRA M1 carbine ( pics in a few weeks)

Now to get a IHC M1 garand from the CMP in November and I'll have both of my WW2 American combat rifles I've been persuing.

Yeah I've been buying milsurps while everyone else is buying AR15.

194? Smith corona 1903A3
1942 izzy M91/30
1956 Chinese SKS 5 digit ghost
1956 Chinese SKS 6 digit ghost
1917 steyr 95/34 stutzen
1942 Swiss K31

Soon to join the family

Type 53
M44
M38
K98
AK 47
Lee enfield SMLE
Aristika type 99
A few different versions of the mauser
A few others depending on $$$$$

Tragically and by my own stupidity I had all of these locked up in a gun safe at an undisclosed location which has recently burned to the ground.

Nice. I'm trying to put together a WW2-era milsurp collection. Thus far only have a 91/30, M44, and Spanish 7mm Mauser. Hoping to add an M1, Lee-Enfield, and K98 next. Always wanted a Garand, and there's really no excuse not to get one with the CMP am hour away.

Obviously all depends on available funds and patience from the wife.

K31 is a beast, with the right person it could be a legit sniper rifle.

Class and samco have them in stock. Aim also has some in stock.

I got a walnut stock from aim and other than the century import mark I love mine.

My wife hasn't given it out in over 4 weeks but every week she holds out I buy another gun. She's mad I'm buying guns and I'm mad I ain't getting any wonder who breaks first.
