Redstate Checking In
« on: April 27, 2015, 10:47:34 AM »
Grateful to have come across this forum. I read a thread by running-man on this forum entitled "GB listings for March, 2015 - Russian", and I thought it was excellent. I have a lot to learn. I have a 1952 Tula that I picked up years ago when they were $125. I recently picked up another 1952 Tula. Also, within the last month or two, I picked up a beater Norinco imported Paratrooper that happens to be my most accurate.

I want to collect SKS' and Mosins, and that is what my gun store visits entail, the search. I don't necessarily mean collecting rare and valuable ones, I am satisfied with reasonably priced shooters.

Thanks for letting me join the community. I hope that as I learn more, I will be able to contribute accordingly.

  • The only way to avoid Mosin #2 is avoid Mosin #1!

Glad you made it redstate.  Sorry about the color confusion in the registration screen.  We've fixed that now, thanks for letting me know about it!

Hope you like it here, there's a very good nucleus of guys here that have forgotten more about firearms than I'll ever know! thumb1

Glad to have you Redstate!  Welcome to the Files.

When the Cambrian measures were forming, They promised perpetual peace.
They swore, if we gave them our weapons, that the wars of the tribes would cease.
But when we disarmed They sold us and delivered us bound to our foe,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "Stick to the Devil you know."
