I got mine from henderson defense, they modified it to be NJ legal

OK new rule for this year. If you sell a gun delete it from your list..... It was a PITA when I was tallying up the list for 2010 trying to figure out who sold what..

You more than likely will get a better price from the people on the forum. Most dealers will try and take advantage of you just so they can make more profit. Whatcha got? If you aren't sure of values just pm me some pics and I will give you an honest value of what you should ask for them.

They dont have the antiquated technology that many of us think they do. The Chinese have one of the most advanced submarine forces in the world. From an inside source, the war wont be with us it will be with Russia.....

we got about and inch and a half up in blairstown, coming down hard

All right fellas, it started getting a little raunchy so I locked it. Please remember this is a public forum and we try to keep posts so everyone can enjoy reading.

I got a postwar German tripod because it was cheaper. An original WWII German one will run about 2500. It was made in 1961. It ran me 250, + 50 shipping. It came with the scope, battery box, and a bunch of spare parts. So I think it was worth it, it just makes the gun look so much meaner.

I do have to say that when I was taking my pic, my neighbor was shoveling his driveway. He walked over and first thing out of his mouth was "dude, WTF." I couldn't help but laugh.

The mg42 was really the first general purpose machine gun. In a light machine gun role you used just the bipod because it is easy to run and move around with. With the tripod it is used for sustained fire and accuracy and mostly used as a defensive role. You see it in Saving Private Ryan when they attack the radar site. Your shoulder never touches the butt of the gun, all you do is pull the lever for the trigger. The periscope is just like the scope on a rifle and fits in the U shaped box underneath the gun. It is like a periscope to get you down in cover making you a less of a target(from what I have read). The tripod has a bunch of springs in it to cancel out recoil, it is supposedly an incredibly stable platform to shoot from. I hope to see how it does on Sunday and a friend is bringing his 1919 so it will be cool to be able to compare WWII German and American.

There are many of us on the boards with SA beltfeds. They are a hoot to shoot, and always turn heads at the range. It is a lot of fun and I would recommend it to anyone. Here is a pic that I took this morning of my MG-42 in the snow on my new tripod.

Well I got my tripod in the other day, it was my Christmas present to myself this year. It took quite a bit of fitting and filing to get it to lock in right. But here it is the new tripod and scope for the MG-42! I cant wait for Sunday for a range test!

I am going against the grain, but i love foam plugs. If properly inserted they are highly effective. I honestly cant stand muffs, they always seem to be in the way, especially when shooting a scoped rifle

I like the surplus stuff. In order from favorite down here are my preferences : Hungarian light ball Polish light ball Bulgarian heavy ball Bulgarian light ball Czech light ball Russian light ball All of those are capable of insane accuracy. Just remember to clean properly after shooting. Heck the monster mosin loves the russian stuff, puts 5 shots inside a quarter at 200yds. Surplus stuff can be very accurate.

welcome. where ya from?

classic, true, but classic! I love it!

I cant imagine this state without an AWB, it must be nice to live in America!

when you find it let me come along for the ride

looks like another large bird kill in south america.... My link and now sweden My link

updated, thanks Glenn

Ok I started tallying the list, here is what I have so far. Please check your counts and if they are wrong PLEASE pm me and I will correct it. It is kinda hard to go through and figure out who sold what ect, but i did my best. I will put more up later on as to the coolest accessory and coolest gun, this is just the total tally so far. I am counting AK's as surplus because all ak's on the market started out thier life as a military rifle, just to be rebuilt for sale in the US.

here is a quick down and dirty of a little "game" my close friends and I have set up. If one of us wins the lottery over 100 Mil, each of the close friends gets 500k to buy nothing but guns and ammo with. You have exactly 1 month to spend that 500k, and here is the catch, your wife or family cannot know where the money for all the guns and ammo is coming from. If you can do it in 30 days without your wife or family finding out where the money is coming from, you get 5 Million. I can hear it now,"Honey, why is there a U-haul parked in the driveway full of ammo?"

ok, i didn't win like like i had thought i was going to, so No Mosins for yall.

remember the days of the $29 unissued M44's in crates at gunshows. I bought some, but wish i had bought more.

I dont do my Christmas until Saturday, I was offshore for the holidays so my family decided to do another Christmas for me Saturday. My supervisor at work got me a really nice pocket knife and I bought myself a tripod for my MG-42. The tripod comes in today, and I am debating on wrapping it up and putting it under the tree Saturday morning. Labeled "To: Eric From: Eric"
