Re: New hobby
A regular visitor at my work place and relative of the owner of the company.....had a MINT M-1. He sold it for around $1500...
He brought it in for me to hold once. That was a really nice gun but pretty heavy. Lugging that around along with your other gear had to be tough in the war years...
My brother was in the Nat. Guard in the 50's.....He used to bring me empty shell casings....hid them in his gloves.....He also told me about "M-1 Thumb"....
I love the sound they make when they eject the clip...
Ed I almost got into gun collecting myself many years ago....I should have.
I prefer hand guns.......have a few rifles.....and used to go shooting a lot and shot Trap....
An indoor range just opened up a mile from my home.
Some guys I work with have been going there to shoot and I have to get there myself soon to join them....
