    WTB: Great War Rifles

    Looking for preferably not sporterized, but open to restoring:
    • No.1 SMLE
    • Lebel 1886
    • Pre-1919 M1903
    • Gewehr 88
    • Gew 98
    • Ross
    • M1898
    • anything else of this vintage including rifles, pistols, or other militaria. I am a WWI geek.
    Thanks to the CMP, I've got an M1917 now 😀


    Please let me know if you have one to sell or spot one on the rack at your LGS!

    I have an all original all matching Lithgow 1918 3md marked rifle and bayonet I think I have my ad in the for sale section here but the price doesn't reflect the Correct Lithgow 1918 3md Bayonet as I recently picked it up after years of searching for one...

      I've got a Turk marked 1897 Danzig GEW88, cleaning rod no bayo or sling. Typical condition for the platform. Never been apart or shot by me.
      Also, a duffle cut Mannlicher 1890 Calvay carbine in original 8X50R with the sights still calibrated in Schritt, allegedly captured in France. Mannlicher M1890 Carbines Austro-Hungarian Weapons (hungariae.com)

        I've got a C96 I've been thinking about selling. I haven't looked at it in 7 or 8 years but if I remember right, it's a wartime commercial numbers matching in fantastic shape with matching wood holster stock thing. If seriously interested, at the value these things tend to sell for, let me know and I'll dig it out and get a bunch of pictures and info to you.

          If interested I have a 1905 Ross MK II in .303 Savage, a Terni 1870/87/15 Vetterli-Vitali in 6.5 Carcano $500 each and maybe a Waffenfabrik Styer 1912-61 in 7.62...
