Finally got my collection started. Not only will I be collecting these but also using them for hunting this year. Just bought a Savage Enfield No4 Mk1. Will add pics of her later.

Anyone else hunt with milsurps?

I hope to.. I recently bought an Enfield No1 MK1 that has a scope on it.. also I have a Mosin M44.. but have not had the chance to get out and shoot them... I can see myself trying to take game with them sometime.. I like your Gibbs rifle, very nice.

Don't know a thing about them, but I like the wood on the third picture gun!

You have a pic of your Enfield? I'm going to add scope and mount to mine as well just not sure which no-gunsmith mount to go with yet.

Where is the best place to buy them?

My go to sites for Milsurps and the like is Gunbroker, Classic Firearms, AIM Surplus, and J&G Sales. Can also find good deals on Armslist but you gotta be careful there.

I'm not real familiar with milsurp rifles. What is the gun in the 3rd picture?

It is a Mosin Nagant 91/30 PU Sniper. Same rifle used by WW2 Russian soldiers. Shoots 7.62x54R, very similar to the 30-06.

You have two that I'd really like to have, I have a couple examples of both just not the scoped models.

Some of what I have hunted with.

One of the Garands I like to hunt hogs with. HRA SG

My youngest daughter's for when she goes with me. SA CG

Sometimes I'll take one of the k98's

Or one of the 24/47 Yugo's.

Nice looking guns!!

I use a turk mauser and Swiss K-31

Amazing weapons

MILITARY GUN SUPPLY near Berry on E loop 820

I'm really thinking about using my Finn M39 mosin this year. It's really been a pleasure to shoot since buying it last March. Would like to get my hands on a Swedish Mauser for 6.5 x 55, I hear good things about that caliber for hunting.

I've also heard very good things about the 6.5x55.

My next project is going to be a Garand or M1 Carbine. The Carbine just looks all types of fun.

Cool guns!

Ive done a lot of milsurps over the years and hunted with many, SMLEs, Springfields, Mausers and Mosys. Mosys are my current passion. I just finished a type 53 Chinese Mosy as a truck gun over the weekend. I got it for a little over a C note including ammo. The gun has a perfect bore and headspace but the stock was pure crap. It shot a 3 shot clover leaf group at 40 yards, so I refinished the stock as much as possible:





Ileft the bayonet on for those charging boars!

We have both, the Garand is a safe queen the carbines are a blast to shoot, not so much for hunting but plinking is awesome. The M14 is also a good one, but bullets can become expensive if you don't pay attention.

I have a sportarized Remington 1903 (1943) that I use for deer hunting. I have 2 M1 Garands, but I've never hunted with them.

Do Sportized Milsurps count? Mosin's are lots of fun.

Here's mine:

Yugo M24/47 Mauser and Yugo M57 Tokarev


1955 HRA M-1 Garand (Yes, I use mine! lol)


1943 Smith-Corona 1903A3


1891 Argentine Mauser Rifle


1943 Izhevsk PU Sniper

Sweet rifles doveshooter!

I had to part with a sporterized K98 Kurz before I left Germany. It was a real shooter. The ATF couldn't verify the serial number because it was made from a mil-surp action with a new barrel. I think they were just lazy and didn't want to do the work to contact the rifle maker who put it together.

Here's a 1917 Enfield my great-grandad sporterized back in the 60s.
