Hello. Just joined the forum, so new here but not new to firearms. I collect vintage military weapons, guns, knives, bayonets. I also love the SKS and have a commercial Para, and a Navy Arms Cowboy Companion. Most my guns are USGI fro WWI-Vietnam war era, but also have the other side too. Glad to be here.

Thanks ya'll.. Here is a really nice Navy Arms Cowboy Companion I recently added to the collection. I have the Type 89 scope mount I just picked up from Joe, and the correct Poly-Tech scope. No pictures of the mount and scope on it yet, but will take some soon enough.

Dannyboy53 · May 10, 2015, 10:02:44 PM

Very nice collection Tudorp, thanks for sharing!

Blicero · May 12, 2015, 10:14:29 AM

That's likely the sexiest 1917 on this forum. Sweet rifle!

Great looking collection and welcome aboard from Minnesota.

Tudorp · May 12, 2015, 03:50:27 PM

Thanks fokes. These are just a few of my favorites. I assume I have to have a certain post count in order to post in the for sale section? I have a vintage red star scope I am looking to sale/trade off.

My most interesting in those pictures is my 1914 serial dated Colt M1911A1. It served in both world wars. It was a WWI M1911, then arsenal rebuilt as an M1911A1 and served in WWII. I absolutely love it. It sure gets a lot of attention when I take it out to the range every so often. Here is a better picture of it, with a 1918 Sheffer & Rossum USGI Holster.

I love those old .45's

that one is top shelf sir!

Tudorp · May 12, 2015, 05:31:46 PM

Thanks. I tend to favor them myself. So much as my daily carry firearm is the grand son of my USGI M1911. My personal concealed carry sidearm is a Colt "E" serial number (made only 2 years), Colt Stainless Government 1911. A family portrait..

Well now you're just bragging

I would too.

Guilty.. So, why not another jab..

The "Stainless Brothers" part of the collection..

Hey.. It's not me. Somebody asked for it.. hahhah.. We can be here all night..

Shotz90s · May 12, 2015, 05:56:17 PM

Its ok. Its better than looking at porn. Keep the jabs coming!

Tudorp · May 12, 2015, 06:03:39 PM

Then we'll do old skool/new skool. Personally I like the old skool, but do also have a few new skool. The AR isn't anything to brag about, but it sits with the old USGI Winchester M1 Carbine. On the other side, the Arsenal SLT101s sits with the old Mosin & SKS.
