My long gun game is weak. I need some new hotness in my safe!

Finally took the Bren2 to the range (and what a nice shootin' rifle it is) along with the AP5 (mp5 clone.)

Just put this one together the other day out of some spare parts.

Need to decide on muzzle device still.

My shiny new Austrian Death Machine came in. Atlantic Firearms had them on sale for ~1629.

My newest addition. About a year ago my long time neighbor (a retired NJ State Trooper) passed away and his widow asked me to come over and make sure all his guns were cleared and safe. She also asked me to get her some valuation information on his stuff - and said that she would probably be selling them once things settled down. We inventoried his guns, and this one caught my eye. I've always wanted an M1 Carbine - so I mentioned that I'd be interested in buying it if / when she decided she wanted to sell it and if family didn't want it. I got her pricing ranges for it and the other guns (most pretty pedestrian).

Well - a few days ago my son came home from doing some sort of chore for her (we look out for her - you know - like folks used to do for elderly neighbors) and said that she needed to talk to me. Long story short she "sold" it to me at an absurdly good price - and refused to take more for it. It is a Plainfield Machine made gun with an early SN (7XXX). It came with almost 600 rounds of .30 carbine and the 7 magazines shown. Not shown in the picture is the purchase receipt from the sporting goods store in NY where he purchased it the mid '60s, and the original owners instructions for the gun.

Looking forward to putting some of the rounds through it. My wife and I are going to take her out to shoot it - she never had. "Once it warms up a bit..." she says...

This one will go to one of my kids when I die - along with the manual, receipt, and a write-up about my neighbor that I'll be putting in the safe with the other paperwork - as well as instructions that it is to be passed down - not sold.

This one is too easy to lose if you set it down in the Sonoran!

Recently moved to CA, most of my guns remained to be unCA-like

M1Carbine-Med.jpg

Similar to my situation....Have a WWII M1 Carbine produced in, as I recall 1943, by Inland Division of General Motors, that my father and I (with his $20), purchased from the NRA in the late 50's in classified 'Unserviceable" condition. However, we found out that the only problem was a broken firing pin, which when replaced, made the carbine 100% functional. First "Other than .22" that I had ever shot, and took down my first rabbit with it. Hopefully, one of my three grandsons will be worthy of holding on to it for their generation.

Took a couple out today, to be honest I’m sort of bored of my ARs.

Finally put an optic worthy of the rest of the rifle on it. All I have left to grab is a foregrip.

Finished this up for a customer yesterday. Started out as a bone stock Henry 38/357 carbine with a wood stock set, threaded the barrel for his suppressor and shaved about 1/8" off the end of the magazine cap to clear the suppressor mount. Fitted the Ranger Point handguard, I really do like these handguards.

Thats the boat I am in. I have plenty of them, but always grab the "weirder" stuff when I go out.
