Very cool stuff Larry.  I have some Military stuff from the Civil War, Indian Wars, Spanish American War, WW I and WW II. I have a jump bag for a M1 Garand.  Most of what I have is Army except the Navy issued Lee rifle that could have been used in Cuba, the Philippines and other Pacific Islands by the Navy or Marines.  

I live in Ca. too.  I have a Carbine and 2 Garands.  All 3 are registered in Ca. Why would yours be illegal? I haven’t kept up on the latest determination on magazines of the era that can hold more than 10 rounds though.  Illegal then not then????  I use 10 rounders at the range but nobody checks.

  

Folding stock. I guess that makes them illegal. I moved from Calif in 1997 after spending my entire life there. None of the stuff I had was illegal back in the day. 1st thing I did when I moved to Utah, was to buy a legal full auto Thompson SMG. Still have it. I just gave my WIN 13 Garand and beautiful 2-43 Inland carbine away to a friend. He got my 1943 Colt M1911A1 too. I’m 80 now and have started giving guns away. I had over 200. I kept my USMC M1903 as it was my 12th birthday present. Dad got it at Camp Pendleton USMC base in 1954 for $25. Dad was a 20 year Marine.   Big Larry

Surfer Joe. I lived on Camp Pendleton’s Wire Mountain from 1953 thru 1957. Good place to grow up. Lots of room to explore. I got picked up a few times being in an out of bounds area. The MP’s could not do much to a 13 year old kid. Good memories of going to work with my Dad at range 213. He taught Marines how to shoot the M1911A1. He was a Master Distinguished Pistol shot. As a Marine myself, I spent some time at the beach at San Onafree. Big Larry

San Clemente. Been there done that. Big Larry
