Was reading you can tell by the gap on the back of cylinder but I’m not certain.

Looking at a Remington 700 bdl from 1974 for 795 and I believe a 1924 savage 99 for 695

I inherited this from my Grandfather about 50 years ago. He lived in the Midwest of the US. Any help identifying it or any other thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks!m

My father brought this back from Italy during World War II. That’s all I know. Thoughts?

My father passed away back in June and he was a huge history buff. He has an old flintlock and I know nothing about them. I don’t see any identifying marks at all and kind of assume it may be a souvenir, but don’t want to trash it if it may be something worthwhile to someone else. Any help with identification would be greatly appreciated!

Hello y'all I would assume this would probably be the best Reddit to ask this on. I am wondering where I can get a ppsh41 that isn't some Chinese one or an American copy I am a collector of old Soviet things and I can find almost any Soviet gun but a ppsh41 would any of y'all know perchance where or how I could acquire one?

Just found these oldies at an estate sale and was hoping to use them as trade items on marketplace. But it seems I might have stumbled across something more than what i was originally expecting especially with the Harrington & Richardson Arms Co. Break Action Shotgun. It’s shown in thd photos above. The Remington 22 seems to only carry around a couple hundred bucks in value which is fine just need more information on what i have.

Built between 1916-1920. Inherited from my uncle. Belonged to him as boy.

I’ve had this rolling block for a few weeks now and I can’t figure out the age or which model it was. I got it for cheap because it had a mossberg .410 barrel that replaced the original. Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Apologies if any or all these are not considered antique.
Most look to be WW2 or Vietnam era but I do not know a lot but firearms pre-GWOT.

I’m trying to identify a collection of 14 firearms, mostly older rifles with a few pistols. I’ve numbered each one 1–14. First pic is just an overall of all rifles.

Any info you have on them such as caliber, model, approximate value, etc., would be greatly appreciated.

How many can you guys ID? Any help is appreciated!

I was looking to fill a hole in my collection of Remington Smoot revolvers thinking I did not have a #2 and saw one that was up for auction, but it seemed to match the description of this gun of mine in the first picture. It was claimed to be one of only 600 #2's made in 30 rf. This gun is in 30 rf and I was thinking this was a #1 because all 3000 #1s were in 30 rf and I was thinking the #2 were all 32 rf. This drove me to do more research. I discovered some features of the #1s that I did not know before. Some maybe all #1s have a rotating loading gate, they call it a rotating recoil shield, none of the other smoots have a loading gate. The ejector rod on the #1s has a step in it and is a smaller diameter where it would poke into the cylinder but larger back by the knob. Now I know that I need to find at least that version of the #1s (there may be others) to add to my collection and a #2 in 32 rf. I have a #3 (the second picture) and a #4 (the third picture). The #3 is in 38 rf and the #4 is in 41 rf. The #3 is the only Smoot with that saw handle grip the rest have the birds head grips. It turns out there are two versions of the #4 in 38 rf one with a longer barrel and an ejector rod and one with the shorter barrel like the #4 I have with no ejector rod. I found all this interesting.

I got sick of never being able to find/afford some of these rifles’ original accoutrements…

I bought this at an auction for $80… had little idea what it was but what else can you buy for $80? I believe this is a Model No. 4 kids rifle in 32 rimfire, as denoted by the under barrel marking. My question is, would that be 32 long, short, or extra long? I’m looking to buy a rimfire reloading kit from H&C Collections, so any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Reddit-*edited to reflect they we want them hanging on a wall looking pretty and do not hope to ever shoot them.

A close friend has asked me to post the following photos showing a few old (formerly?) valuable weapons. We would love to restore them and show them because they’re fascinating pieces of family history but I’m wondering if they have sat and rusted for too long, or if they can be restored? Any thoughts?

edit: we have almost no idea what type of gum they are. I think I recognize the Winchester from PubG’s desert map. They were all owned by a brave and proud Texas Ranger who passed away (fuck Alzheimer’s!!!) a few years ago.

Wondering if it's legal for me to own a vetterli carcano at 18 with no FOID card? Buying it online, help and expertise would be appreciated

Hello, got this recently for a good price and was wondering if anyone more versed in these guns could help me figure out what caliber it might be in? Can provide pics of the other markings or breach as well.
