That sounds great Sir! But I'm afraid I can't bring the guns with me...Immigration might get a hissy fit if they found a few dozen full-auto firarms in my luggage

My hunting guns I inherited from my grandfather
An old K98 that has been rebarreled and restocked.
This was common practice over here, after the Bulge there were thousands of them littering the countryside, many of them were converted into hunting guns
A Brno shotgun and a Brno combined shotgun.

Hey Skylinedrive,
Next time you see an Sturmgewehr STG 44 laying around could you pick it up for me?

I'll take one, even if it has been sporterized.

I found a Stgw 44 in the woods a few years back, but it was all rusted up and rotted. Now and then a farmer turns up with something in good condition that was laying around on the attic. Three years back an old lady called a friend of mine who is a LEO, she had a complete MG42 lying inbetween the hay bales on the barn, still in the grease, with all the sights and accessories
There are also many very nice private collections of WW2 weapons, a friend of mine sold of his a few months back, every single Weapon that was used during the Bulge including Stgw and FschjgGW . A M1 carbine from every producer, same with the Garands, An M41 Johnson, a Gerät Neumünster,...and on and on... it was an incredible collection.

I would like to also throw my name in the hat for the next skyline drive basement sale.
Very nice collection. I think I need to move to Lux.

Can you shoot these in Lux? Or is it just that you can't shoot full auto?

I can shoot all the semi-autos and the hand guns. The SIG551 and the L1A1 SLR, as an example, are semi-auto, so no problem. The MP5 and the G3 are full auto and have to stay in the safe.

My New EBR
We tripped up to East Palatka is see close friends this past week-end,, And while there, My bud & I drove to Apopka to visit Spikes Tactical (ST). Several weeks ago I ordered a lower and it was ready for pick-up.
For those that are unfamiliar with ST. It's a small company run by a young couple and their extended family. They have a reputation on AR15.com for above average products and quality. They are small potatoes in comparison to the likes of RRA & LMT, but I like that and they have nice T-shirts( c attached)
Here is what I have put together:
Upper: YHM, 14.5 inch 1/7 med contour, chrome lined, fluted barrel, w/5C2 brazed & pinned FH, carbine gas block and Specter length light wt free float forearm, all assembled at YHM.. plus,, BCG by Daniel Defense, MP tested,, YHM BUIS & riser, old Aimpoint Comp M (1st gen M68/CCO)
Lower: ST w/pro LPK installed, MagPul MOE stock, Eros grip, YHM sling anchor, KNS anti-rotate kit, ST-T2 heavy buffer,
buffer spring, castle nut, & milspec tube.
Additionally: MagPul ladders, misc forward sling anchor, Eros Husky vfg, Emdon USA, Gunfighter Sling (1 or 2 point).
I picked the magpul FDE color scheme for giggles. I am not headed to any high-speed anything. If I use the EBR for hunting it may help,, probably not... Looks good....
The case you see is the VooDoo Tactical 36 inch. It's fantastic, very well built, room for two(2) carbines and several pistols. Comes with pockets & straps a-plenty. Best of all, I purchased it from SportsmanGuide for 39 USD.. Yup,, the same SG you throw out each month. They don't advertise the brand, but someone on AR15 spotted the opportunity a couple months ago. On the VooDoo site it's 78.95 USD..
And my new favorite T...
