I do not have a C&R licence yet but I will probably get one sooner or later. On to the point. I have had family fight in WWI, WWII, Korea, and Vietnam and I have been around weapons all my life. I have, in the last few years, started to collect military weapons used in WWII. I am starting with WWII because my Grandfather left his bring back gun to my Dad and my Dad is leaving it to me when he goes. What I want to do is get a handgun, a bolt action carbine, and a semiautomatic rifle from each of the major players in the war. Britain, US, Russia, France, Germany, Italy, and Japan are the key nations I want to collect from. I want guns that I can shoot and is not going to cost me too much to start with. Right now counting the P-08 Luger that I will get when Dad is gone, I have a M91 6.5 Carcano Calvary Carbine from Italy, and a 1945 M44 from Russia. I'm thinking a K98k 8mm Mauser for Germany's bolt action carbine. I need suggestions for the rest except for the Russian guns, I'm thinking a TT-33 for the pistol and a SVT-40 for the semi auto rifle. I know some of the weapons are going to be costly and hard to find but I'll start with the cheaper ones first and work my way up till I get them all. I am hoping to be able to mount scopes on most of the rifles without doing anything to them that is not reversible. In other words no drilling holes and such. Firearms need to be low cost if possible, carbine for the bolt action, be able to get ammo and clips or mags for them, and be able to mount a scope if possible without damaging the gun from the original form. So let me hear your suggestions for the guns from the other countries I don't have please. And thanks ahead of time for your time.
