Reynolds357, that is what makes surplus rifles intriguing.. These rifles are all connected to historical events that are yet to be documented and compiled. Identifying the place they were assembled, which troops most likely used them and the possible theatre of operations they were part of is very interesting. Conducting this type of research is very eye opening too. I plan to collect rifles used in WWII... That will keep me busy and entertained for a long time. There is a lot to read about these firearms and testing them at the range is a great excuse to spend fun time with my sons.
