USGI Weaponry of WW2

[joe n]

Gotta love the US military firearms of WW2. I really do not collect these, but here are a few from my stash. None of these to the best of my knowledge have ever been rearsenaled. All in original configuration. Please show yours, M-1 Garands, Carbines, Thompsons, BARs, ect...
M1 Garand manufactured November 1941
Underwood M1 Carbine manufactured January 1944
Remington Rand .45 manufactured 1943

Id say you have quite the collection, very nice Joe!

 

[campperrykid]

Very nice.
Looks like those guns found a very good home.

As always, nice stuff Joe!

NAA.

Thanks Gentlemen, had some time with the wife and kids out of the house so I dug through the safe. Now I am waiting to see yours

 

[RifleDude]

Here're some of my collection. Bolt rifles also include Enfields and M38 Swedish Mauser

Some of the junk in the basement.

And this one I recently put on the thread asking about Thompsons.

I love this thread, oh man i wish i had ONE of the guns here, let alone these collections! I'm more of a german-militaria fan though .

The Garand is for sure on my wish list, and i wouldn't mind trying to import one of the semi auto BARs they got state-side (well when i win the lottery)

 

[Steppenwolf]

Gotta love the BAR

 

[elvis3006]

is that a CA or newly made semi BAR ?

 

[joe n]

Koldt! Awesome! Just the post I was looking for! Thanks for sharing! And RifleDude! Also great, what's the carbine? Looks like a nice one.

I've sold the M1D. I hate getting rid of stuff, but it's hard keeping up in the arms race being a poor guy.

 

[joe n]

No sweat! Lets start a German one too I'll play...

You should REALLY sell that BAR to me....then you could afford that operation you have always talked about

......and the Para Arisaka too....and maybe the 1928

Thought that looked familiar...

Koldt,

Thanks again for that M1D!!!! I have shot about 10 clips through it and it is so awesome. I can keep around 2.5 inch groups at 100 yrds, but mind you I suck. I shot it the first time on June 6th 2009 on the 65th anniversary of D-Day. As the receiver date puts it at Jan. 1943, I thought that it was fitting to puch some paper 65 years after it may have landed on the beaches at Normandy.

I have to admit that I still regularly sneak down to the basement and pull her out of the safe to play with it a bit.

Just to let you know, I clean her and pamper her the way she deserves. She has a good home.

My humble WW2 Yank collection. Just ignore the 1911, it doesn't count.

 

[Architect_SA]

Wow, for once I'm actually jealous of other people's collections. How in Holy Hell does someone in Canada obtain a BAR? I want one! I'm guessing they don't make restricted ones do they, or are they just banned by name only like the Thompsons and its variants?

Nyles, I love the Trench Gun!!!!!!!!!
