Where did you buy yours?Were they in good condition or you had to send to a gun restoration shop ?
I've heard that gun shows is a good place to get them cheap,but of course you have to send them to a shop after for a tune up.
I really don't know I just start looking about a week ago.

Look @ this site [url="http://www.dgrguns.com/firearmsforsale.html"]http://www.dgrguns.com/firearmsforsale.html[/url]

Haha, me too!!! happy:

Forget about the M1 Garand, Buy the Mauser K98 Rifle instead!!! It looks better to, and more authentic

Come on a good one goes for only USD 1.300.Well I'm still single /no kids biggrin: Life is good.

Did you strafe back and for while leaning when you were firing it?

^lol!

I dont know if i would ever get one, they arent the greatest & haveing to unload the entire round would be rather anoying. id buy Mauser K98 Rifle if i was going to get a rifle. That bolt action just floats my boat.

hey good idea, go for it!

Check out this place. I really want to get my hands on most of those.

I want the KAR 98....if not I wanna get a BAR!

yeah, a BAR would be sweet!

FG42 or an MP34, maybe even a Vickers HMG.

[quote="Captain Wilkins":64113]yeah, a BAR would be sweet![/quote:64113]

You can't own a BAR in the USA (no autos here) only semi,unless you're Tom Hanks. biggrin:

I think you can get replicas, Webb, but i could be wrong.

Also, a Lewis gun wouldn't go astray... evil:

Im gonna go searching for a Thompson and a garand.

^ maby you should get your name shrunk first? its anoying

Scrotum would u just shut up about my name im trying to get it shortend and i dont need u bitching at me every single day so shut up.

yeah man give him a break, you know how long badscript takes with these things

I want a DEWAT Thompson M1928 British Version with the Drum mag and the horizontal forearm grip. That would be sweet cool:

The cheapest I've seen one was $770, so that website that Albright gave you is good.

I'm getting a WWII Bazooka. evil:

i've seen em for $400

In what condition, and which one? I mean, I've seen them on Ebay for about 400 - 500 too, but they weren't the best condition. Where did you see em for that price?

some magazine article, you have to join some club and they sell unissued originals for around there

Hehe, there's a surplus shop here in the Greater Vancouver area that has a DEWAT WWII Bazooka, but it's display only. evil:

Crap. cry:

I have a magazine from a army store that has a used disposable one for 200 bucks. It's really ratty, all scratched up, heh. But it comes with a round thats dead & the optical sight. I think I may just get that & hang it on my wall.

ebay cannot sell working firearms. I think there is a website called AIM they have great deals, as for gun shows its buyer beware. I have purchased a rifle missing a firing pin at a gun show. Go to a good gun shop they will have used firearns. I just picked an SKS from such a dealer and love it. The SKS shoots a smaller round that the M1 so watch your shoulder cause an M1 has a nice kick to it! here is a pic of SKS http://www.rt66.com/~korteng/SmallArms/sks-56.htm
one thing to consider when buyuing a gun like this is the cost of ammo. The reason I went with the SKS is because 1000 rounds is only $90!! good luck with your purchase.

If you guys want a bolt action, go with the Lee-Enfield less kick

My dad has an SKS, sweet gun.

Could someone explain to me the difference in semi-auto and full auto?

[quote="1000 Staples":faeb5]Could someone explain to me the difference in semi-auto and full auto?[/quote:faeb5]
semi=fires as fast as you can pull the trigger
auto=hold the trigger down

While on the subject of guns, what's the difference in a submachine gun and a full machine gun?
