I'm interested in seeing other member's firearms, specifically the vintage ones. Let's see 'em!

Here are my military surplus rifles. Top is a Japanese WW2 Arisaka Type 99 that has been converted to 30.06 and had the stock chopped down . Middle is my postwar Yugoslavian M48A Mauser, my first gun. Bottom is my M-1 Garand . I also have a Win. 1897 shotty that belonged to my grandpa.

I guess all of my firearms are vintage, the newest being a.22 rifle that is over 40 years old.

Nice group. Coincidentally I too have an Arisaka that was sporterized (not by me!) and a Yugo. I have a couple of Mosin Nagants and will post a few pictures.
The Garand is on my list.

My only firearm is a Remington 682 (I think) .22 long rifle that my father purchased new in 1962 - the year before I was born. He sanded the stock clean and then hand rubbed several coats of linseed oil into it. It's in storage, so I don't have a picture.

Thunder,
The Arisaka looks restorable. You might want to haunt http://www.gunboards.com/forums/forum.asp?FORUM_ID=42 and try to pick up an uncut stock at

Thanks for those links Story, I haven't visited gunboards for quite some time (frankly, I forgot about the gunboards forum). I'll see what I can find.
