You should have been a little more upfront with that. Whole different world over there when it comes to firearms.

They're Mausers rebarreled for .308. They were a sort of stop gap until Spain's Cetme versions of the German G3s got into full production. You'll probably want a nice cushion on the end of the buttstock though.

I heard from a friend that the most feared a weapon in Iraq was a recoilless 12 gauge shotgun ... so I looked it up.
Yep, it looks awesome and they even say that it never needs cleaning. The Auto Assault-12 (AA-12) is an automatic 12-gauge shotgun that can fire 300 rounds per minute and is recoilless. Basically, it's incredibly powerful We take a look inside the AA-12 machinegun (full auto shotgun)

I figured many here will get a kick out of this; Here's my US Model of 1917 .30-06. Its in really excellent shape for an almost 100 year old rifle.

Unfortunately no. The receiver and barrel is Winchester and some of the smaller components are Remington. Still, its a very solid rifle and kicks like a mule!

Mosin Nagant M91/30's can be had very cheap and are great shooters. Easily one of my favorite rifles ever made.
------ Little bit late, but the gunsmith took their sweet time torquing my upper receiver. Took the Grendel out in the yard for the break-in procedure and went to test some cheap airsoft iron sights I had lying around Rifle ran perfectly. I have a VG6 Precision GAMMA 65 muzzle brake on the end and there was nearly zero felt recoil and zero muzzle rise. Towards the end of the break-in, I was putting multiple rounds down with minimal adjustment for recoil. ASC 25 round mag ran without any stops, brass and steel case. Lot of times I see reviews online of the ASC mags that are questionable but I didn't see any issues so far. I see a lot of stuff out there about people having issues with steel case ammo but the rifle took it like a champ and asked for seconds. Set up the airsoft sights at mechanical zero and it was dead center, but a foot too high. So went to adjust them and got it down to 6 inches high, but then the front sight pin snapped off. Cheap airsoft sights work great, until you try to get them dead on i guess. In the market for an optic or iron sights now. Leaning toward some fixed iron sights (Not made of plastic this time). Overall, I'm extremely happy with the performance of the build so far. It's satisfying to go from a stripped lower to a functioning rifle. Will update with pictures soon.

Maybe you should be Alvin York instead of Audie Murph89.

Throughout the film, Sergeant York, York is seen using the M1903 Springfield, which was the standard issue rifle of US forces during WWI. However, in reality, York was issued a 1917 Enfield rifle

Yes the 1903 Springfield was mainly used stateside and by early arriving units. It wasn't long after arriving to the front that doughboys either had the model 1917 or British Enfield's, depending on unit and AO.

Its IN! My Hatsan 135 .30 caliber Carnivore arrived today! Hopefully I didn't make a mistake, that I'm grown-up enough to take care of the beautiful walnut stock. Really thought about the synthetic but wanted something sophisticated.
Chose the .30 caliber just because its the largest caliber available in a break barrel. Chose a break barrel because of its self sufficiency. Very suited for small to medium sized game inside 25 yards. Got a tin of 44.75 grain Predator Polymags cant wait.

Oh, oh did you say a 'gateway' to airguns? Sounds like if I'm not careful I could develop an addiction.

The SAP-6 shotgun is a magazine-fed short-barrel shotgun manufactured by Dagger in Turkey and imported to Canada by Tactical Imports.
