Here's the two I own- hoping to expand as soon as I am able to afford it...
 1942 Izhevsk Mosinka, Model 91/30. Has an excellent bore, but needs minor touch-up work on the crown. Has a shimmed trigger and some bolt work, as well as some action 'bedding.' A 2 MOA rifle or better with commercial ammunition when I do my part. Pictured here with sling and 1 round of Hungarian FMJ lead core "heavy ball" 185 grain ammunition. The Mosin paired with its companion, my M1855 Rifle Musket in .58 cal (which is a reproduction, but uses an original buttplate and a few other original parts...I think). You can see the Rapine Minie I use in the right hand corner. A friend of mine tuned the lock on this gun, taking the trigger weight down to 3 lbs and it breaks like thin glass. Other custom work was done by Lodgewood Mfg in Whitewater, WI, including the fitting of the original buttplate. Beautiful guns, everyone! -Chris

AWE-inspiring collections gentlemen. Yamamoto was right - a rifle behind every blade of grass (and this thread's not even considering the modern and new stuff we all have!).

Hello friends and neighbors // Picked these up in early Sept. 2012, pics are from sighting in day.
Just inventory photos but not many of these represented here yet. I really need to get the camera back out, sorry for the poor quality. S.A. 1898 .30-40Krag.jpg1898 Springfield, 30-40 Krag Rem1917EddystoneSA1903A3.jpg1917 Remington Eddystone //1903A3 again,, both .30-06 Remington315T Military trainer.jpgRemington 513T ,Military trainer, .22 EnfieldJungleCarbine.jpgEnfield Jungle Carbine, .303 British More satisfying to shoot these than my words can describe. The 1917 is always a crowd pleaser.

I noticed the price on all the Tokarev variants has jumped already, so I'm glad I ordered when I did.

How does the VZ 52 shoot dark.zero.x, is she pretty accurate, I was thinking on getting one of those or a Spanish FR-8
