Haven't had a chance to shoot:
1) a .57 snider, complete with 3 sided bayo (hung on a great-uncle's wall) now tucked at a cousin's

Wow!

I'm surprised, only one other Snider lover.

My first pick would be a Snider Enfield MkII** 3 band.

My Canadian Milsurps consist of;

INDIA PATTERN BESS RAMSEY-SUTHERLAND New Brunswick Battalion
INDIA PATTERN BESS LUNENBURG NOVA SCOTIA 17-BATTALION
1845 EXTRA SERVICE SPECIAL COLONIAL ISSUE
1864 ENFIELD Pattern 53
SNIDER MK I* 70th Champlain Battalion 2 Band
SNIDER Mk II* 24th Kent Regiment 3 Band
SNIDER Mk II* 21 –GT-2B GRAND TRUNK RAILROAD Cadet
SNIDER MK II** 23 Essex Battalion & 29th Waterloo 3 Band
SNIDER MK II** 1860 ENFIELD 3 Band
SNIDER Mk II** 13th/77th Battalion Cadet
SNIDER Mk II** 35TH Battalion Simcoe Cadet
SNIDER Mk III 17/23 23 Beauce Battalion X’d out & 17Levis Battalion 2 Band
SNIDER Mk III NWMP 1-9-D Cavalry Carbine
SNIDER Mk III 13th Battalion Hamilton 3 Band
SPENCER Carbine 1865 Canadian Militia

MARTINI MkIII 5th British Columbia Regiment
LONG LEE LSA M&D Stamped

Then we get into the U.S. Civil War Milsurps.

Then we move onto Russian, Swiss (K-31's pure heaven), German, French,

Ahhhh, I luv them all the same.

It is hard to pick a favourite.

I have been a milsurp lover from day 1, for the last 50 years, give or take.

Well cigar_man, let me be the first to say, that if you ever get the urge to sell anything, you call me first. Heck you could sell just the British stuff and have a nice loonnngggg vacation.

 

[Chumlee Bumsnag]

My Mosin Nagant M-38

 

[TRich]

If I could pick any... Well it would be a Thompson or a Delisle Carbine haha but Canada sucks for that so probably a 1971/84 Mauser or a really clean Lee Enfield

 

[tbrwlf]

I'll take my dad's G43. Semi auto. 8x57. Very rare and very fun to shoot.

 

[UCSPanther]

Hakim, SKS, VZ 52/57 and Kar98K.

 

[fred0000]

Mosin nagant sniper for sure.

 

[Tinman204]

My favorites are:

1- Ross model 1910, 1916 manufacture (set up like a factory stripped rifle)
2- 1943 No.4 Mk.1* longbranch A.G.Parker target rifle.
3- 1940 K.Kale Turk M38 (beat up but georgeous!!)
4- 1916 Aussie No.1 Mk.3 Sporter no.'s matching
5- 1955 (refurb) Tula SKS

 

[The Kurgan]

All of them. Bottom is particularly special to me: unissued Venezuelan Short Rifle (1947 FN model 1930 Mauser)

 

[bryan.14]

All of them, Scoped mosins/mausers, I love the scoped milsurps best for shooting. My eyes aren't perfect.

 

[Old Outlaw]

I love my whole group of Swedish Mausers, but the 1943 Husqvarna is my favorite.
