Greek Mannlichers

I have only recently found out about this Forum and I'm must say that I'm really enjoying it.

For the past couple of years I have started a modest collection of Greek rifles used during the German invasion and the Greek Civil war (ie 1940-1948). Since then I have been lucky enough to aquire four examples (a 1903 rifle and carbine, a 1927 Breda rifle and an all matching System 1930 carbine).

Since owning these I have started to appreciate the design philosophy and the quality of the Mannlichers and I will hopefully purchase a commercial variant as well (or maybe two). I also have aquired a Steyr Scout as this is a modern day version of the earlier MS carbines, in my eyes anyway.

From reading the posts in this forum, it appears that quite a few of you out there have purchased Greek military examples for conversion into custom rifles.

If anyone has any Greek military stocks left over from their projects I would be very interested in purchasing these (or any original parts for that matter).

Regards

George
