In honor of all the fallen US service members!
Remembering that Memorial Day 76 years ago when WWII had been over for just 8 months.

Thanks Bruce. Yes, that Johnson is the nicest I've seen, and it came with a (real) bayonet.
The Winchester M1 Garand I picked up at my local gun shop in October 2021. It has a lock bar sight, but it's a Springfield Armory version. I already had three Winchesters, but for under 1K I couldn't say no.
Very cool collection! thumb1
That is a great collection! thumb1
All great examples of their type. thumb1 thumb1
Excellent! Thanks for taking the time to stage and post.

Thanks very much HN! Those snipers really needed sharp eyes with the low power and limited field of view scopes they had to work with on the 03-A4 and other sniper rifles of the WWII era.

Thanks! I do have a dedicated secure room, and a secure closet, for the firearms. Militaria and ammo are located in a few locations around the house and garage…and I wouldn’t mind more space :))
