A friend of mine is obsessed with WW2 stuff, collecting models and other things. Last December I decided to get my firearms license so I could apply for a desk type security job. Also decided I should collect some WW2 stuff too! So I got my hands on a Mosin Nagant. It's Russian rifle made during and used in WW2. Hoping to add more WW2 weaponry in the future. I'll post some pictures of it soon.

Nice stock. I pieced together a Garand. Now I need a gunsmith to go over it to make sure it's functioning safely. What's your next WWII firearm wish? Cheers

I've a photo for your buddy. Not sure where my grandfather acquired this, but I am pretty sure it was in an army surplus store either in West Germany or in Canada. I can also post my grandfather's sword if you like.

Tried not sure what to look for though, very curious about its history, or potential history.
