Like somebody oncet said - a piktur is wurth a tousand wurdz.
I only collect WW 2 vintage K98ks - like these:
1st photo is all Steyr/Radom made between 1938 & 45, 2nd is Borgswald & Erma between 36 & 44 and includes a G33/40. Then I got some other misc K98ks not shown.

Capt'n Mil Coll · 04-14-2008, 03:49 AM

Between the three of us with all the other firearms I have we could outfit a small army.

Sarge · 04-15-2008, 02:42 AM

I've got another dozen K98ks and about 30 semi auto rifles. I can also furnish part of the FAs for a Company and 1 Mortar.
Also several working radios, both back pack & vehicle mounted.
Now who has the vehicles needed to be a motorized company?
Hmm, just remembered I have a friend localy with a 1½ ton truck, 3 or 4 half tracks and an armored car. I also know a guy a couple of hrs north of me that has a Stewart tank, an M8 armored car and a half track.
Geez - between the 2 of them & myself we could about arm and transport a motorized/mech Inf company - and be able to communicate within the unit.
Who need to hire a small army? Finding good troops would not be a problem is the price was right.

lefty o · 04-15-2008, 10:33 AM

holy crap sarge, will you adopt me?!

Capt'n Mil Coll · 04-15-2008, 03:41 PM

Damm I always wanted a BAR.

Full MeTal Jack · 04-15-2008, 08:15 PM

Awesome collection Sarge! You have a Bren also. (if that is it's name?)
Sarge, that kind of collection takes pride and dedication and lots of $$$
The unissued Persian and unissued Yugo48 are at the top my collection.
Favorite mausers are the 1st Swede 96, Chilien 1912 7mm, Jap 99 and one Turk that looks like krap but shoots +/- 1MOA.
Also have several M1 Garands.

RMTactical · 04-15-2008, 09:02 PM

I have a 24/47 Yugo.

I am thinking about refinishing the stock.

I also had a Turkish Mauser. It was OK but man it was HUGE!! I gave it to my brother because he said he wanted it and then he sold it at a garage sale for $40 without telling me.

Would love to get a K98.

Big Dog · 04-16-2008, 05:31 AM

For me . . .

Spanish M1916
Spanish M43 Airforce Issue
Spanish FR8
Turkish M1903
Yugo M48A

A pretty good start . . .

The Bren is one of the most fun to shoot guns that I own. This is a Mk I, I'd like to find a Mk II to go with it.
I've been at this for 55 yrs. Much of what I own cost between $25 & $200, which at the time was a bundle of $$.
I've also got a dozen or 15 Garands and 5 or 6 Carbines.
And there is still more to come!!! I expect to buy my last firearm either the day before I die or that day!!!

Sarge

Years ago while at the Texas Parks and Wildlife I-45 office getting info on "Lottery Hunts, I overherd a TPWD ranger type employee talking to a secretary, "....... yaknow, a man cannot have enough rifles."
Sure thought that was strange at the time.
I owned 3 at the time. 96 Swede, Mrk1#4 and Savage 06.
OH boy!

Mooseman684 · 04-22-2008, 11:04 PM

Sarge...My hat is off to you ! That is a fortune in Full-auto weapons you have, Mp40's(Never seen that many Together in one place),Stens, BAR, MG 34, Bren, Thompson...

You win !

Capt'n Mil Coll · 04-23-2008, 12:01 AM

I think all the other Mauser owners got scared off.

Sarge · 04-23-2008, 01:09 AM

I would hope not. The fact that I and a couple of other guys have more than everyone else combined so far is immaterial. The question was how many do you have? Not if I have more than you you can't post!
Besides how many you have is mostly goverened by how long you've been at it and how much $$$ you had to spend along the way.

Yep, at todays prices I could buy a Rolls Royce and have money left over, BUT what the hell would I do with a Rolls Royce??? Oh, I know, drive it out to the range to watch everyone else shoot their FAs.
I also have 2 MP 40s that are not in that photo, and then there are also these -
