Hey, I gotta build up my post count somehow.....thought this might be interesting if you all joined in with yours.

I don't have many WWII stamps. Would love to see what you have.

[mixmaster]

I wish I had ONE that would show up in a pic! The only thing that seems to stand out on mine are the Ps as they are usually struck harder than most.
Who's counting?
Mixmaster

[wgandy]

I know what you mean mixmaster. A lot of mine are so worn that it's very hard to take a picture of them. These just happen be some that are well struck.

As for the post count......I'm just trying to get out of the cadet catagory. Once out of there....I don't care what my count becomes.....

Here's a rebuild stamp - RIA EB from a 1.3M WRA

"......I'm just trying to get out of the cadet catagory. Once out of there....I don't care what my count becomes"

Not bagging on you, but what difference does it make?
I see that kinda stuff on airsoft boards where 12 year olds are worried about such stuff. Just like they need lots of fake-ass facebook or Xbox 360 frieinds to feel good about themselves.
Like I said, I'm not bagging on you personally, but I've seen more than one thread on this board devoted to the same goal. I'm just curious what is the big deal with post counts?

Anyhow..back on topic. :)
I wasn't aware that the WWII style ordnance wheel was used on HRA's. I learn something new every day.

[wgandy]

Schriv...no offense taken. Some people care & some don't. Does it really matter...nope. Some people on other gun forums I've posted to have several thousand posts and I don't consider what they have to say is any more important or true than someone with 100 posts. This is a ranking thing that to some of us we just don't want to be in the lowest rank. That's all it is with me, I don't care where I end up I just don't want to be in the lowest rank.

To each his own!!!!

[Schriv]

Roger that.
I'll just let nature takes it's course. I don't get to play on the internet much during the week, so I'm way behind the power curve when it comes to bulk posting!!
As you said, to each his own. I'll have to stick with the quality vs. quantity approach. :)

Early WRA. This Rifle was used to guard Los Alamos.

[M1orNone]

I'd post a cartouche pic too, but I don't think anyone would be impressed by the word "Boyd's". LOL!! ;)

M1861 Amoskeag musket. Unsanded and original stock(just cleaned,oiled). Still trying to find out what the initials are and who they are. It also has the initials W I carved into it. Pretty cool, especially seeing as I live in Manchester NH and my great grandparents worked in the Amoskeag millyard, although that was long after this rifle was made there.
