A little something I found

[zeus1gdsm]

So I inherited some stuff from my grandmother's house due to her passing.

Found a rusty old kabar.

Stamped Camillus and usmc on the gaurd.

From my googling it appears to be ww2-korean war era.

I enjoy cleaning up rusty old blades.

This was just a hunk of rust and I figured it was a cheap knockoff.

I should add that I believe this to be my grandfather's from the Korean War.

Unfortunately I couldn't find the sheath.

I also have a box of old ammunition I'm going to post pictures of. I doubt it's worth anything. But im sure I'm not the only one who likes old outdoors items

Any of these full boxes worth saving?

Can anyone identify the large round?

Got some 303 British.

[zeus1gdsm]

Any idea what this is?

The rifle still has the firing pin. And is a single shot cartridge of some sort

[zeus1gdsm]

Maybe this thread should be moved to general hunting?

Few more of the rifle. Surprisingly all serial numbers match.

Actually found the rifle. Mauser gewerhr mod 1871. Single shot. First Mauser adopted by the German army.

Looks like an old arrow fletching jig

The large cartridge is a .50 BMG....

NICE find on the old Mauser...Resist the urge to "clean it up"..That might reduce the collector's value.. A gentle rubdown with some gun oil should be sufficient.

Thanks for the cartridge identification.

Yeah I won't be touching the Mauser. Gave it a light oil rub when I got the lamp a few months ago.

Tempted to sell it. But the lamp is just too cool

Thanks. I doubt I'll need it. So I'll be putting out to sell or trade or trash

AS moog said, it's an arrow fletching jig.  If all 6 clamps are there, it could be worth $50-$75 all day long.  No flies on the Jo Jan Jig..........

[zeus1gdsm]

Looks like I have 2 of the clamps. I'll look for more.

Looks like it sells for 100$

Some really cool stuff there. Sorry for your loss.

Sadly, none of the pics are viewable anymore.  Just a jumble of letters and numbers
