I have a picture of me holding 2 old style revolvers with a very old musket behind.

Also 3 ww2 rifles in that house, including a kar. Obviously I can't share the pictures due to me looking like a dick.

action on them is sexy

Nah, not me. This was when I was really young. He tried turning me into a drummer boy but he stopped going to the reenactments before I ever got drafted into service.

Looked like fun though, kind of. Bunch of dudes get dressed up for a weekend of camping, do a bunch of drinking, and then pretend to shoot each other. It's just not my style.

i knew a guy in my first-year uni accommodation who would do medieval re-enactment... his entire family were into it...

they'd go on weekends to historic locations/castles and dress in full chainmail/suits of armour

thousands of pounds worth of stuff, proper livery and everything. crazy.

"Guns that can take high-capacity magazines are a threat to public safety,"

m1 garands don't take a magazine, kys

"could potentially be exploited by individuals seeking firearms for illicit purposes"

yeah because it's so hard for gangs to get AK-47s already, kys

"They clearly were used as military guns, and the fact that they likely can take high-capacity magazines makes them a special safety concern," he said."

oh well, we'll probably get a few containers full imported here with little problem

I absolutely love my Garand. for sure one of my favorite to shoot. I had a Korean war vet offer me $1000 for it and I would not part with it. I got it as a down payment to paint a mustang about 5 years ago

The carbine takes a magazine and they were about 90% of the total shipment. IJS

The anti-gun lobby is pathetic and retarded. Basically they're terrified of any weapon that has been used in combat because somehow a hunting rifle with better specs than that carbine is less of a danger... There's no logic to it.

When is logic ever applied in government decisions?

Surely there's that many in circulation its just an inconveniance. I find ww2 rifles especially nice, enfield double especially.

Hey man, Carcano killed Kennedy. Or at least that's what they WANT us to think.

But yeah, this is a tad absurd. Do they think people will be pulling drive-bys with M1s?

"The transfer of such a large number of weapons -- 87,310 M1 Garands and 770,160 M1 Carbines -- could potentially be exploited by individuals seeking firearms for illicit purposes" ... anti-gun people are morons.  Yes, the gang bangers are going to snatch those up and there will be war in the streets.

"The transfer of such a large number of weapons -- 87,310 M1 Garands and 770,160 M1 Carbines -- could potentially be exploited by individuals seeking firearms for illicit purposes,"

of all the guns to choose to do something illegal, why would anyone choose these

"Anything that accepts an external magazine could accept a larger capacity magazine,"
so ban everything that takes an external mag?
