| Best way to buy replica WWII firearms?
I'm getting my license as soon as the paperworks is done, and that could be months... So in the meantime I'm planning ahead.
I've always wanted an M1 and I also want to get another bolt action like a Springfield or K98.
What's the best way to acquire such firearms? It does not have to be genuine WWII. I plan to use them for target shooting at the range.
*Yea, I play too many video games. :P

as for WW2 era weapons, try gun & antique shows for the real thing or join various gun forums where you can find a lot of private sales or trades.

the only replica ww2 guns ive seen are cap guns or airsoft guns
and they aren't cheap in the least.... they go from a few hundred to thousand+ dollars
cant imagine what a working replica would cost
but i guess you could always find some thug and buy a real m1 carbine off of em (seems like a few people have been arrested with an m1)
quick google search http://www.wwiiguns.com/ |

Everyone is recommending the SKS to me for cheap start. That will definately be part of my consideration.
Thanks for all your recommendations. I want an M1 because it's a semi-auto that you can just blast a couple of rounds off. I want a bolt action because it's something I can take my time with.
And no, you won't see me on the news. Firearms does not = violence/heroics. I plan to shoot targets, I'm not even thinking about hunting.

Get your gun license. Most of the WW2 firearms are quite inexpensive. For example my Mosin nagant 91/30 only cost me 130, M44 150, Kar98k around 500, Lee enfield No4 300, Arisaka type 38 200ish, M1 garand cost a bit more and they tend to go anywhere from 600 to 2k depending on the condition or if it is the sniper version. Btw they will be expensive to shoot, unless you hand load but i am going off topic here.
