Springfields are fucking amazing though
I often would hike with it thats my issue
have an old Swedish Mauser in 6.5x55... thing is a beaute, 1941
Don't keep a round chambered
No need for safety then
Yup
Amber all the way
Like a machine gun
My friends dad has a 1908 Turkish Mauser. Thing is incredible I’ve never felt such a smooth action
You need to talk to your girl then
something about that old, super well worked-in high-quality steel.... sweetness
You just need to work things in
After 40 or more years most guns are silk
All our Springfields in the Old Guard felt amazing
Shame they got rid of them
I really want to get an Enfield rifle
No
Variant 4 hopefully
I really like how they feel in the hand
some of the new steels don't feel like they'll ever be like that, though. Different contents and processes
I had an Enfield, they're garbage

And the ammo......
some of the Lee Enfields were made in Canada at the Long Branch location (Toronto)... they're going up in price but definitely want one. The No. 4 with the aperture sights <:thumbsup:448311720742617089>
I mean tbh I plan on collecting all the WW2 era bolt rifles for display
I had 2 types. Gunpowder & this shit that used this spaghetti looking shit
The gunpowder ammo was ok
The spaghetti shit had an up to 3 second delay
The hardest I think to find will be the Arisaka
Pull the trigger, wait, wait, wait
Probably right
BOOM
.303 British is not a half-bad round, though (at least with modern ammo)
Cordite
That's what that spaghetti shit was
think I prefer 6.5x55 Swedish for it's ballistic properties, though
Oh yeah Fox my other friends dad has a huge collection he once showed me a 1951 Browning High power that was carried by the Canadian mounties
Noice <:thumbsup:448311720742617089>
He bought it at an auction along with a 1912 Po8 lugar
Ok, I've got to get back on the road. I'll check in later
