Sorta. Here's my latest acquisition, a CZ75B:
I picked it up for a fair price with 6 magazines. Thanks to Dwarven1 for the glowing review of this pistol. I was not disappointed.
I think I'll be selling my S&W 5906 soon.

Nice piece Jim. I have a CZ75, I just pick that thing up and it fits perfectly in my hand. The best fitting pistol I own.
Congrats! Bonz....

That would be a pleasure thanks!
Picked up today from EddieCoyle. Thanks again Jim.
Bayonet has been ordered
I've been wanting to get one of those for a while now. I'm kind of torn between that and the repro lever action winchester, but I'm leaning to the 97.
jon...sweeeeeet

I thought of buying that a while back but other things kept popping up. Looks like its still practically new.
The bayonets are huge BTW!

Fred, that is AWESOME!!! If you EVER decide to sell it, you gotta promise to give me first dibs.
The quality looks to be very good. I've read and heard good things about these shotguns. I'd love to have a real Winnie but the price if you can find one is up there. And if it were a real one, I wouldn't shoot it. The repro will suit me fine.
Bad ass for sure! Are you going to get a military version or plain model and deck it out?
17"! Yes, it's in very good condition. A bit of slam firing will be funI thought of buying that a while back but other things kept popping up. Looks like its still practically new.

Picked this up yesterday, thanks to NEtracker
Looks good. Your sling is backwards though. It goes in from the outside of the loops (muzzle and butt) then clips so the metal tabs face the underside of the rifle.
Yes I have a sickness that causes me to be totally correct with any military surplus rifles.

That I like!
I swear it looks exactly like what they gave me the first time I pulled guard duty in Infantry AIT back in 1974 (hardly in that condition though).

Where do you find all this good stuff?
The flower place mats add a nice touch.

Like so?
Finally got the bayonet I need....
for my 1898 Springfield Krag. The pics don't do it justice. The blade is shiny, like new. The scabbard, though not shiny paint, has not a single ding in it.

Still no word from CMP but got a couple Yugo SKS's to keep me occupied in the meantime. One was a 1974 build in really good shape, the other a 1982 that looks like it's never been fired. Here's the 1974; the 1982 is still disassembled while it gets cleaned up...(sorry if the pics are too big, having trouble resizing on photobucket.)
...Loving that C&R more and more every day!

Looks like a nice one. Is it a Samco import? I tried getting an M59 and had one on order from Samco before they stopped shipping but they cancelled and refunded me after they made the decision.
I'd like to get another unfired but I'm not sure which distributor has Samco rifles and which one has Century billboard ones.

Bayonet has been ordered
out of ALL the WWI & WWII and all milsurps that I long after... even possibly all guns in general...

The 2 I got are both from XXX. I've heard 50/50 stories about XXX; I have one of their WASR-10's that I bought at a gun show some months back and it cleaned up great & shoots nice - no canted sights or gas tube problems, just lots of cosmoline & metal shavings from where the magwell was hogged out. The SKS's were my first purchase directly from them using the C&R and I have no complaints at all. They were ordered as "Very Good" condition and I'm 100% satisfied with both - numbers matching all around, no "X"-outs, very minor dings in the wood and all the metal looks to be 100%. I took the second one out today (no pictures yet) and it had no problems whatsoever. I can only guess it was sold as "Very Good" due to a couple of light dings in the stock & handguard. Certainly not a deal breaker as far as I'm concerned.
