New to Milsurp
Posted: Sat Aug 30, 2014 2:09 pm
As is my habit with forums, I'm only doing a welcome post after posting to several other threads first.
My history with milsurp weapons goes back to an SMLE No. 5 Mk. 1 I bought out of a barrel in the basement of a local department store way back in my teens. It was $19.95, and I paid for it and walked out with it, which shows how long ago that was.
Never been too big on military surplus weapons....picked up a CMP Garand, a S&W 1917 .45 ACP revolver, and a M44 Mosin-Nagant, that's about it.
Reloading for the Garand was easy, since I already loaded .30-06 before I bought it. Never loaded anything for the others, until recently I put together some loads for the SMLE, which worked fine.
