Had a 52 for awhile. Not a bullseye shooter so got rid of it. Bought the Russkie from the fellow and a Winchester M-100 semi auto post 64 gun in 284 Win. Rare caliber. Also got a nice S&W M-19 no dash 4 inch gun. And for some odd crazy reason applied for a concealed carry license(don't need it here) and for another Federal Firearms License. Duh! I will post a pic of the Ingles Browning as it is the oddest one of the bunch. Shot the M-1A..shoots pretty good. Heavy!! Had an offer of 1500 on the New Service Colt

Not to downplay the OMM....Colt grips have never been 100% in my hands.
When doing bulls eye, I primarily used Smiths and Gold Cups...unless it was the issued box with AMU weapons. Dan

skeet,
Well Done! The military surplus market is pretty thin hereabouts lately. At our last big gun show in Morris, PA, I got lots of needed parts, slings, etc., but no iron. Adam

Just finalized a sale for my Wifey....She has a Ruger M77 MKii in .270 that she absolutely loves. But she is left handed. Just found her a M77 MKII in .270 that is lefty for her

Since I lost most of the sight in my right eye I've toyed with the idea of shooting a lefty in rifle. Shotguns are still ok right sided. Betcha momma will be happy with the Ruger. Not long ago I had a Colt 22 March target..Have had a few over the years and keep forgetting I can't shoot 'em too well. Grip angle sucks. Sold it for a new Kimber rifle and a couple hundred bucks. Very seldom make out that well but it was a nice one. Funny thing about the SKS...2 hours before the fellow brought it in to sell I had sold more than 500 rounds of 7.62 x 39 ammo I had been keeping for years...JIC ammo... After buying the SKS I went to the Winchester Gun show in Cody and found 440 rounds of Federal ammo for 75 dollars...reloadable stuff. Almost the only decent priced buy in that whole over-priced show. I have also sold my last SMLE thankfully. Only military I have left is the old 03A4 the ol WWII Marine Fighter pilot gave me... without the stock. I found a non-correct stock for it... one day I will find The right "C" stock. For some odd reason I lucked out and found more than 1000 rounds of 1959 and 1960 Match ammo for it. Year or so ago for 150 bucks.
Will try to remember to post a pic of a couple. That Inglis is neat... So is the New Service but think it may have to go. Many people want it

Bought a mid o0's S&W M-29-3 today.. Had to pay a lot as it was 800 bucks.... but... got the gun and a holster 2 sets of RCBS dies one steel one carbide. 800 240 gr Rem 240 gr JHP bullets..2 reloading presses one RCBS and the other a Lee...10 boxes of 240 gr Winchester factory loads...4 boxes of reloads a lb of Blue Dot some empty once fired cases... and some odds and ends. and a couple of military 50 cal ammo cans. So I think I will have the whole thing for a reasonable price. A fellow offered me 250 for the ammo..new stuff.. I countered with 300 and we settled at 275...so I am down to 525 for the rest of the stuff.. The 4 boxes of reloads are marked with the correct loads... I've checked 15 at random so far and the guy was on the nose...but think I will tear 'em all down... Mid range loads anyway. Just what I need a 4 inch S&W 44 mangalum
