Since this is the only site that I have figured out how to post pictures on----------- Look out!!!!!! I am going to bore you'uns to death (or over to muzzle loaders!). The Brooms on the wall are all select fire, except the Red 9 at the extreme left and the 45 cal at the top. The Star at the bottom right is also select fire. The Artillery Luger at the extreme left is a Persian, marked entirely in Farsi characters (1935, I think). The MG 42s are #111m and #5895, both cra.........

Wife is obvious receipient at this time. Known in our circles as Rainbow Brite.........Dedicated MG shooter. I have many photos of her in action but nothing I know how to get on this site as they are all 35mm.. I have copied a sheet on my printer w/no trouble but that is as far as I know how to go................ Can pictures be faxed??????? She is violently opposed to selling anything. I have a great deal of difficulty convincing her that when we accumulate 12 Garands that we should sell a couple and buy something we dont have. Then I am told, leave them in the rack and I will buy you what we dont have........

Jason, Isnt your state a no private ownership of MGs, having copied some sections of Californias constitution at one time or another????????? I can understand the "Peoples Republic of Kalifornee, and NY and Ill and NJ and Mass." and ??? but never could grasp the other few which are (South Carolina?????? Hawaii????????) ? How this for a 'cry'? A local here wanted an MG 42 for several years, I located him one at $12500. w/kit and WW 2 mount. Form 4 in Fla. He capitulated to his wifes 'No' for several years after. He finally took the bull by the horns last year and went ahead. Had settled for a FA Browning A4 at $12,500. He will always wish he had moved when the opportunity was.........

Speaking of the Republic of Kalifornia, I just saw on TV that even Blow Guns are not allowed

California blows. You can't have anything fun here.
But if you're a transvestite, lesbian, midget in a public employees union, you can pretty much do whatever you want here. See, because then you're in a "protected class". As if gunowners in CA aren't a minority that faces discrimination!

I once entertained moving to San Diego area because of the nice weather. I called several people I know who had gone there from high school here. Two of the three I talked to candidly told me "Dont dare come here.....this is a state full of loosers. Everybody who couldnt/wouldnt make it at home came here. (to get handouts???) Once you get established, you are economically trapped and are afraid to take the chance on going else where." Boys, there are other states where you can do what you are doing there and probably wont cost you as much to live by a long shot. I dont think there is ever going to be a chance of reclaiming Cal by decent normal peoples goverment up-rising......... I suspect that Cal. complainers will do nothing as the wife wears the pants...............

Yes, I once came from California...18 years..this I admit...good thing I left though, as my collection could not bear such restriction
