rifles and helmets

[AlaskanGal]

Thanks Joe. We went on line and checked that link out. They seem to be sold out of a lot of rifles and ammo. I had to laugh about the army green spam cans. We had a lot of that around here when we were kids! My brothers say they still eat it. We also had k-rations. I remember the round crackers, and the 3 pieces of gum most. (of course the 3 lucky strikes and can't remember the other brands) we about died trying to smoke those!

 

Another question for you: my dad's favorite rifle was the 30-06 for moose hunting (no offense Moose of the dancing feet) Was the 30-06 a popluar hunting rifle to men of that time era due to the M1? It seemed that he used that rifle more then he did any other.

 

Thanks, Nancy
