Nice piece, Deacon. There is just something about the look of the blued, 6-inch Mod 29. I need to get a new camera and post some of my toys. From a Baker Rifle to a MP-40. And hopefully the new Bren-Ten in Feb or March.- Mr. Clark

Ecperience a WW2 POW Camp
This has already made the rounds over on the WW2 reenactors board. But as bizarre as it sounds, the idea is not original. I remember reading a few years back about a similar event in Russia, but instead of a German camp, the concept was being taken into custody and interrogated by the KGB. It... -

"Manhattan Melodrama"
A great film. It's funny how I finally got to see it. I had just got home from seeing "Public Enemies" and I turn on Turner Classic and there it was just starting. Talk about good timing.- Mr. Clark

Show us your Guns!
I have lanyard rings on all my serious working handguns. Not that there is much chance of me loosing one from horseback, but if you work around boats and water much, you will see the need to tie the weapon to your person. I once lost a $800 pair of Steiner binos in the Gulf of Mexico because I...- Mr. Clark

Show us your Guns!
I remember reading a story about that very subject. I don't recall which nation, I think it was Rhodesia, where a farmer had an elephant in his garden and he fired a .22 at it hoping to scare it away. Instead, in a freak one in a million shot, he managed to accidently shoot the beast in the ear...- Mr. Clark

There's no one manufacturing Artillery Lugers or C-96's. With the machine work involved they would be very expensive. A shooter-grade Arty Luger can be had for around $1500. Expect to pay the same for the snail drum. A repro stock and rig runs about $150. I'm collecting Artillery parts to build...- Mr. Clark

Nice Webley. Are the Ivory stocks real? I wish my Mk VI wasn't cut for half-moons.- Mr. Clark

You know you've been re-enacting WW2 for too long when…
LOL That's the truth. (That's why I'm putting together a civilian impression.) 93. You realize there are two types of re-enactors doing a Heavy Armored Recon impression, those who have thrown a track and those who have yet too. 94. You actually look forward to throwing a track just so... -

Tarantino's Inglorious Basterds
I knew going in the film was going to be a 'popcorn movie'. Like him or hate him, Tarantino's a great writer and he knows how to cast. Christoph Waltz stole the film. The character was so evil that you really wanted to like him. Even his uniform details were evil. I've never seen an SD uniform...- Mr. Clark

You know you've been re-enacting too long when... I've been re-enacting CW and WW2 since 95, so let me take a shot at a few. 77. You haul a 9 ton half-track 1500 miles to FIG only to get food poisoning the night before the event, but you take the field anyways because you're on vacation and... -

1911
Hello all. I've been lurking for several months and finally got around to registering. Good thread here. I'm a big 1911 fan. I've owned over 30 over the years, mostly stock GI pieces. I personally prefer the 1911 over the 1911A1. The flat mainspring housing and longer trigger just seem to fit me... -
