Post your battle rifle pictures!

[Nightcrawler]

We have picture threads in all of the other forums. "Post your .45 pics!" "Let's see your .357s!"

So, let's see 'em! Let's see your battle rifles! M14s, FALs, Garands, G3s, CETMEs, AR-10s, etc.

Here's a FAL picture I got from somewhere (don't remember where). Two Israelis, a Para, and a standard Metric.

...and suddenly Nightcrawler feels inadequate. Heh.

What make is the L1A1?

 

[Tamara]

I've got a plastic & sheet metal semiauto that fires Winchester's newfangled short .30 caliber round, but for "battle rifles" as in "rifles that may well have seen battle", well:

Schmidt-Rubin M96/11, M1896 Swedish Mauser, Mosin-Nagant M1891, M1917 Enfield (Eddystone), Type 99 Arisaka, Chiang Kai Shek Mauser, Mauser 98k ('43byf), Krag-Jorgensen M1896 carbine, Hungarian Mosin-Nagant M44, FR-8.

 

[Nightcrawler]

C'mon, Tam, let's see the HK91....

 

[Tamara]

Okay...

 

[Ewok_Guy]

Looks like somebody needs to vaccum their carpet.
Nice guns, BTW.

The only thing close to a battle rifle that I own.

 

[Tamara]

I couldn't get the Dirt Devil to lift nine pounds of plastic & stampings...

 

[JamisJockey]

I know...it's not a 'battle rifle'. However, it is a .308 bolt rifle. No super sniper fantasies here, but if pressed into duty, it'll work perfectly.
Savage package rifle, short action, .308

Not quite mine yet, its on layaway

 

[CAP]

Atc1man, what model is that? I've got my eye on a new Savage and have narrowed it down to one of 2 or 3 different ones.
Whatdaya got there?
Thanks,

 

[Gewehr98]

A trio of battle rifles, or two...









(Digicam's darned near paid for itself!)

 

[Nightcrawler]

NICE....

Is that an orginal military scope/mount on there?

When I started this thread, I was hoping for things like FALs and M14s...but you C&R Folks have taken over.

NOT A PROBLEM. You guys have some BEAUTIFUL old rifles. Keep 'em coming.

 

[Gewehr98]

Yes, original military.

Unfortunately, not original to that rifle, it began life as a 1903A4, but somewhere between the time it came off Remington's wartime production line and the time I grabbed it, it had been reduced to a stripped receiver. Then the fun began, researching the proper parts and finding them all over Gawd's Green Earth, right in the middle of the Saving Private Ryan craze.

[Navy joe]

Anybody that would use a battle rifle to defend their Spam has serious personal issues.

 

[Stephen A. Camp]

Hello. I enjoy this one.

Best.

 

[CampX]

Does this count?

 

[Engineer]

2 M1A's and an M14S:

 

[Duke of Lawnchair]

Engineer, how do you like your Super Match?

 

[AK103K]

Nightcrawler,

The L1A1 is the British version of the FAL.

 

[Nightcrawler]

I know it's the British FAL. I want to know who made the one he has. Is it an original, built on an Entreprise receiver, a Century gun, a pre-ban, etc...?

 

[usp_fan]

Just finished building this IMBEL FAL
