Hello all...I've stopped by this forum a couple times in the last few years and I am finally getting around to signing up. It looks like I recognize several members from the CMP forums.
I am a born and raised Okie that enjoys collecting and shooting surplus firearms. My other interests are collecting USGI militaria so I am definitely happy to see a militaria section on this site. I specialize in collecting M1's, but I have a soft spot for any WWI - Present U.S. helmets (most of my helmet collection can be seen here... http://imgur.com/a/LpPuv ). My surplus U.S. firearms collection is still fairly meager at this point as only have a post-war Springfield Garand, an Inland M1 Carbine, and a Smith Corona 03A3 in the safe (I've included photos of those rifles below). I have hopes of someday at least adding a 1903, 1917, and 1911A1 to the stable.
Thanks in advance for the welcome...I look forward to getting to know you guys and continuing to gain some valuable knowledge.
