What firearms do you collect?

[1899]

I used to have a small collection: Mannlicher-Schoenauers and Brno 21Hs, but sold them when a had a change in my life.


What do you collect? What would you like to collect? If you were to limit yourself to one manufacturer/era what would it be? (ie - pre-War Model 70 Winchester, Oberndorf Mauser, Savage 1899, etc ).

I'd like to get back into the Mannlicher-Schoenauers, specifically Models 1903,1905, 1908, 1910 and 1924.

Feel free to post some pictures of your prized possessions!

I like collecting anything with a lever....but I also have a soft spot for Mausers.

I am into Lever guns. Right now I am stuck on Marlin firearms. Currently have in the safe.
1.) 1894C - 357 Mag
2.) 1895 - 45-70 Gov't
3.) Model 410 - 0.410 shotgun
4.) Model 39 - 22lr
5.) Model 57M - 22 Mag
6.) Model 336 - 30-30

If it bears the Marlin name and is a lever - I like it.

I don't even require them to go bang. As long as they did at one
point or possibly could at some future point I'm interested.
And like everything else I like it better if guns are old, weird, or broke. Makes em more interesting. My
dad's got an eight foot long musket with a mid eighteen hundreds date stamp on it that can't shoot minute of barn but I like it better than anything
else in our respective collections.

Anything that says Savage on it, the older the better.....sometimes.

Merry Christmas everyone........wTc

[deadman]

always been a fan of cz, bitten by the mannlicher stock bug a while ago. also interested in just about any ruger #1, as long as its got iron sights on it. trying to sell my #1-b .270 right now, but probably miss it when its gone. don't have anything fancy, old, or valuable right now.

cz 452fs .22
cz550fs .270
ruger 10/22 rsi
ruger 1-s 45/70
ruger 1-b .270
ruger 1rsi 7x57 x 2 (incoming shortly, i hope)

like others have said, anything with a lever. got an old win 94, and a couple henrys. one of my faves is my ugly little oct. barrel savage 30g (stevens favorite) .22lr. accurate as hell!

 

[Pickles]

13 700's in the rack. Have a few actions in the safe waiting on $$$ for a build.
Near the end is a Ruger 77 in 250 Savage and a Savage 99 TD in 250 as well.
Now I just need a 700 in 250 Savage.

Yes I know, 700's suck.

 

[99trix]

Lever action savages, I have a couple in the safe! Would like to find a really nice savage 1903 pump to go with my all original 1903 prince of wales pistol grip 1899.

I seem to be building up a pile of rifles in 6.5x55, especially Swedish Mausers. Currently have my deer rifle, a BSA CF-2 in 6.5x55, an M96 sporter and an M38 full wood and will probably add more in the future.
