Hello all,

I’m a new member to this forum from Upstate SC. I’m looking for any and all milsurps. I typically don’t collect newer firearms as they don’t interest me. I usually always have a couple milsurps for sale as well. Glad to be here!

Will! Welcome aboard. Don’t take things too personal around here. We are a bunch of cranky old bastards. Thick skinned, not politically correct, and hard core. No touchy-feeley crap here. But plenty of knowledge to share if you care to join in.

Hi Will, welcome.

I thought you might be spook, with your first post sort of an advertisement? Not sure what GLs are in SC? But you don't want a visit from the FIB.

29042

I'm just trying to get along and being self reliant.

If you hunt, fish, grow your own food, farm, tinker with/fix machinery,...........you'll find friends here. Besides firearms let us know your interests or make some posts to do the same.

I've only drove through SC on the way to Daytona 500, what's your area like? Good hunting/fishing, mountains/woods...?

Hello from Hellinois.

I don't have any guns anymore because that fat slob jb prickster told me they were bad, and since Shitcago's gun free theme works so well, I decided to get rid of them.

Feel soooooooo much safer now! :bsflag:

I have plenty of Enfields. Fantastic rifles! Hard to beat how smooth the action is.

Great hunting in my neck of the woods. Currently stalking a flock of long beards as we speak. I love to hunt and fish especially, but I help my grandfather out on the farm as well. I’ve picked up reloading as my newest hobby and I absolutely love it

The toms are starting to strut here. States near here have spring (May, Toms only) and fall seasons (Oct-Nov).

Ever seen a buzzard for a turkey decoy?

I had some striper racks from fishing the spring Hudson river striper run ,put out by the game camera, a buzzard visited and Tom turkeys (background) thought it was competition for the hens.

I picked up a NIB extra full choke 12ga barrel that fits my TC and Lyman/Investarms Hawken style MLers , I need to work up a turkey load for that.

How about these, N.O.S. #4's? They are unfired since degreased.

Got plenty of MK-7 ammo for them also.

Oh, I have a bunch of used ones also.

They are Long Branch and Fazerkerly, all #4's.

IIRC he didn't last long at the other place either. I didn't buy his not seeing the new member area and scrolled right down to try and sell a gun.

Might be different now, but thought when you join you get reminded to visit new members area and introduce yourself.

I think you are right... but not sure. I came over with PF refugee status. Not as much free shit as Xiden gives the "refugee's" or "asylum seekers" as the libtards call it.
