I assume modified rifles don't count? I have a bunch of military bolt guns that no longer look military.
My first reaction was "I don't have much in the way of original military rifles." But it turns out I do have a couple. More than I first thought. A classic: ![]() Another classic: ![]() All original including offensive markings: ![]() Odds and ends... ![]() ![]() ![]()

Here is a beauty that is pretty much one of a kind! It's a Persian short Mauser presented by the Imperial Iranian Air Force to one Col. Wu-Ping-Chung. I have not been able to find much history on this rifle. I've received an offer or two from a few collector buddies though and I may bite, as I'm trying to finance another project or two. I sure would like to know this particular rifle's story, though!
