    US officers were allowed to buy their weapon if they wanted to before being discharged.

    Now the one that always gets me is shot with only mildly corrosive ammunition. Has debris in the groves but strong rifling and might clean up to new with a good cleaning.

        I like the term "battlefield pickups". You mean these rifles were picked up right after the battle and sold directly to a buyer in the states? How long did these rifles lay on the battlefield?

        Another term I like is "bring backs". Brought back from where? Korea? With import stamps?
