The title should actually read NTS for NEED To Sell. I just made an serious impulse purchase of a Russian TT-33 rig from Dennis Kroh at Empire Arms so unfortunately I have to part with my favorite semi-automatic rifle. It's a 1963 Czechoslovakian vz.58 rifle with all the bells and whistles...

Rangerone, I am afraid you missed out on the gloves. They sold earlier today. I made a notation on the original post that these items were cross-listed on other forums. I apologize for not having stated that earlier. I also have found it very challenging to keep the postings updated because...

I have a bunch of military and other gear I need to move on to new homes - First up is a pair of cold weather boot liners/inserts - Asking price is $10 shipped. Here is a standard size duffle bag - Asking price is $40 shipped. Here is a Coleman cold-storage cooler that can be run off...

WTS - Famliy-size tent by Alpine Ridge Here is an opportunity to own an awesome family-size tent by Alpine Ridge. This tent is in excellent condition, inside and out. The only reason I am selling it is because two of my three daughters are off to college now and I have scaled back to using a...

This machete and scabbard are sold. Tim

Both pistols are now sold. Tim

Here is an opportunity to add a neat U.S. marked Ontario "saw-back" machete and a rather unique "side split" leather scabbard to your collection. And here are some photos of the scabbard - Asking price for this machete and scabbard combo is $90 shipped. First I'll take it...

I have two pistols I am reluctant to part with, but there is a rifle that is "speaking to me" so these must go to new homes. First up is an original, non-import marked Russian m1895 Nagant revolver made in 1940 by the Tula Arsenal. Revolver is all matching - Asking price is $250...

Steve, Yes, this information is very helpful and much appreciated. One of these days I will have to breakdown and buy Pate's book, it's just so darn expensive even when you do find a copy for sale :(. Tim

I do not dispute your history regarding the disposition of some revolvers originally shipped to the U.S. Navy. However, despite the "Flaming bomb/U.S. Property/G.H.D." marking on the top-strap, this is not a Navy reject that made its way to the ROTC. This revolver is flawless in fit, finish...

Yes, though I wish the historical records were more informative (as I assume we all do) and told us something about the Theater of Operation to which the revolver was sent from Norfolk, VA. Tim

As much as I loathe to say it, I will probably let "her" relax in the safe. I have a shooter pre-Model 10 that I can give a good work-out at the range. This Victory is just too pretty and collectible to risk devaluation. Tim

...that my 1943 S&W Victory revolver was issued to the U.S. Navy :D. Here are some pictures of the revolver with its documentation - Apparently, some of these revolvers were pressed into service by U.S. Navy personnel, but, did not have markings to indicate such issuance. This example...

My bookshelves runeth over and I need more space for reference texts so these books must find new homes. Regarding the book, all are intact with no torn or dog-eared pages. All have original dustjackets if they came with them. And, none has any writing, highlighting, water damage, etc. All...

So if I wanted to try this, how do you go about whittling the tooth brush down to the correct size? Do you simply begin filing the handle end down to a size slightly larger than the cut-out for the insert? Tim
