FIREARMS

I have been a licensed firearm owner and collector for more than 25 years now.

As my collection multiplied many have asked to see it over the years.

Many are deactivated now and also others are fully functional.

So here is a sample of my deact and licensed firearm collection.

Hope you enjoy the photos

Gerry nice well done

Capt Jack		14-May-2013 18:02
Great show you have here I wish mine could match it!

Guest		09-Nov-2012 22:51
Mr. Clark, Thank you so much for documenting the Long Branch Small Arms factory. My Mom came to Toronto from Regina with a group of friends when she was 15 years old and worked here making the Enfield. These photos are so great and I can't wait to show them to her. We have heard some great stories about working there and about the social life she enjoyed. I'm sure these photos will bring back some memories! J. Wilson Cambridge

mrclark		03-Dec-2011 06:17
your welcome, still lots i havent shown yet, in time I guess

machman		14-Nov-2011 05:07
It's very generous of you to share your collection with us. Many thanks

Guest		12-Jul-2010 22:21
dang ppsh 41 thats impressive how do you get these guns

Guest		06-Feb-2010 04:57
O yea and its semi, and fully automatic. He let me shoot it and it went through the bullits in seconds.

ryan.droke		06-Feb-2010 04:55
How do I know if if is a real sten mk2, is there any markings that should stand out? I know someone selling one for 500.00 just now sure if its worth it. Thanks for your time.

mrclark		28-Dec-2009 18:14
Unfortunetly I dont have the specs but if you go herehttp://www.milsurps.com/ and post a question in the Bren gun section I,m sure someone can help you out. Peter Laidler is one of the consultants. As you know Mr Laidler is a well reknown author and expert re the bren. Thanks MRCLARK

Eugene N. Neigoff		13-Dec-2009 02:46
This is a great website. I was wondering if by chance you would have any drawings of the receiver for the bren gun. Here in the US you can rebuild the bren gun as a semi-automatic rifle, but detailed drawings are as hard to come by as hens teeth.

Hello, I always have been interested in buying a Bren Gun MK 1. I have no books of Brens so i don't know when a bren is real or fake. Do you perhaps can explain me where you need to look at if you want to buy an English bren gun mk 1 or mk 2. Regards, Ewout

Clint.		04-May-2009 17:06
Fantastic collection sir. A question I hope you can answer for me. I have just purchased a PPSH 41 de acc. with the drum magazine. I am trying to get a stick magazine for it. Will a stick mag from a PPS 43 fit ?? Thanks, Clint London.

Guest		24-Mar-2009 06:04

Jordan		07-Sep-2007 09:19
Nice site and nice pictures.........I too have gotten the bug. Bought my first NFA weapon four years ago, now I have 22. From Mac 10's to stens to M16's and 1919's It's fun, isn't it. thx Jordan

Bruce W. Hansen		25-Feb-2007 17:10
Sir, Wow! You certainly have a most impressive collection. Sincere thanks for sharing with us. It is quite an enjoyable tour.

Guest		04-Jan-2007 04:46
Mr. Clark, A fine collection! Thanks for the pictures. Best regards, Greg

mrclark		01-Dec-2006 11:59
theres really not much but, the Finns usually brazed/welded a sling swivel onto the rcvr of the MKIII sten whereas the brits did not and utilised another area to mount the sling. so needless to say of your sten has a rough looking sling swivel underneath its probably Finn. Also from what I understand as well they modified the buttstock as well for a sling swivel as well. the stock on my MKII Longbranch appears to be Finn I think? Also I hear the MKIII's may have had a deeper richer bluing than the normal brit version hope thats helps

Guest		27-Nov-2006 17:17
I love your collection. However I was wondering if you could tell me the differance between the British MK3 sten and the Finnish MK3 sten.

Peter Chou		24-Oct-2006 10:03
As a shooting enthusiast myself I simply love your collection of WWII weapons expecially your Sten collection!

Guest		02-Sep-2006 06:57
Sorry for my bad English. Thanks, for that show the beautiful Firearms Kolektion. As Swissman, I have naturally also a collection. however I have only Swiss ordonance weapons since 1887 - 1995 I hope it enjoy still long its hobby Patrick Bitterlin in Arbon Switzerland

mrclark		17-Feb-2006 04:36
To all: Please note I am getting tired of deleting questions by some people who are looking for advice on how to break the law. If you have a legal torch cut kit, licensed firearm or deact and need some advice on refinishing or finding parts for it I am more than happy to help if it is in fact LEGAL. If you have a DEACTIVATED firearm that has been specically welded shut to make it deactivated and need advice on how to illegally reactivate it please dont waste my time. I will delete your inquiry and perhaps if it persists forward the message to the appropriate persons.

mrclark		17-Feb-2006 03:52
MuGumBo, as for the price of a Sten they usually go between 300 and 500 dollars depending on condition and of course what ever part of the world you are located in.

mrclark		17-Feb-2006 03:18
I still have not had time to weigh the bronze bolts I am quite interested to see if they are what you state they are. Would the bolt have been modded at all though. I know they turned down those bolts on a lathe didn't they? Thanks for the info, have a look a the Mk2S in the sten section that I just got in

RugerSix		20-Jan-2006 23:43
Only one word comes to mind...AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ziggy		13-Jan-2006 17:47
Re. bronze Sten bolts. Check their weight - it should be 600 grams for the standard model and abt. 450 grams for the Mk2S (the silenced Sten). The only bronze sten bolts to my knowledge have been made for those silenced guns, and those bolts are extreme rarity. ziggy

Guest		11-Jan-2006 11:45
You have a very wonderful collection, hopefully the political climate in your country will change and allow more people to enjoy this wonderful hobby. After reading the sten newspaper article I find the line about dropping STeNs to the "enslaved" to be somewhat ironic considering Canadas draconian gun laws. keep up the good fight.

Guest		01-Jan-2006 15:09
I ran acroos another forum- Weaponeer.net--a wealth of info on just about any build or SMG project you can think of, good deals on group buy discounts.

mrclark		01-Jan-2006 00:23
Ok great, thanks for the info and glad it worked out for you. Send me pics of your 31 when your done I'd love to see it

Guest		31-Dec-2005 16:26
After posting yesterday I found one of your fellow Canadaians; Dave ****** (birdmanca@hotmail.com) He is also know as GPDAVE on Gunbroker.com. He has detailed prints on quite a few guns of intrest for builders and restorers. I also found a company, Prexes.com that has templates and 80% receiver kits and conversion kits to semi auto. their prices on Sten and AK stuff are resonable the Suomi parts however are a bit pricey, due to the much better quality of the Finnish design, They also have free downloads: blueprints of PPHS41, Thompson 1A1,M60 + others and a design for a different Sten semi concept. There is a company called Southern Tradeings Blueprints that advertise prints,recever blanks and 80% kits at realy cheap prices, I've tried to contact them several times but haven't heard from them. Signing on to Knob Creek Range(home of the machine gun shoot)website and then go through their list of sponsers, you will find a lot of usefull info. I hope this info will be useful to you and others, Ill post any others that I run across.

mrclark		31-Dec-2005 11:17
Thanks, I'll see what I can do. There has to be some info out there somewhere on the 31. If so I'll post the link for you

Guest		30-Dec-2005 18:07
First let me say that your guns are some of the best that I have ever seen, great job! There is a post from - tracer- where he says that he is working on a Suomi M31. I am at present working on a Sten MkIII and a Soumi M31, I have run into a brick wall on the 31 and was wondering if you or he could point me toward anywhere that I may be able to find Tech drawings and specs. or Blueprints particuly of the receiver.

Guest		17-Dec-2005 21:31
sorry about that dont know wat happened i was wundering hows much was all your weapons cost over the years plz give me a estimate because i am planning to build a collection lik this but i hope 2 have military vehiles all world war 2 with a few exeptionslik a couple of magnums and hunting rifles would apreciate the info thanks again p.s. nice collection im in ore of it

Guest		17-Dec-2005 21:25
im a 15 year old with a love for ww2 weapons i have a bren mark 2 already im lookin to kit it out with tripod and others but back to the point

MuGumBo		01-Dec-2005 22:46
Very impressive collection I must say.... I found your site researching the Sten MKII loop that I just purchased. It was part of a collection that a older lady had stored in a old barn and it is in need of restoration but it is still in excellant shape (just surface rusty). I bought the whole lot (like 10 guns and 6 swords) all in simular condition. Anyways what is the guestimate value of the MKII in restored and unrestored condition? As far as the other guns I have not yet gotten the markings off them to research what they are. The best I can tell they are civil war to ww2 era. 2 swords are definitly civil war officer pieces. If I send you some photos of these would you be kind enough to tell me what you know of their names/models or whatever you know so that I can research them further? Thank you for your time and excellent site you have here and beatiful colletion!

tracer		20-Oct-2005 19:50
Very very nice collection, I have a deact Bren MK11 and MK5 sten. I also have a beretta 38a in semi form. Im working on a Suomi M31 at the moment. Trying to make a semi out of it, if possible. If not, I'll have to make a deact out of it instead. I started collecting WW2 firearms mainly bolt rifles and a few pistols. It's nice to see a collectors site on the web. I was thinking about making a web site for my collection, but I'm not sure on how to go about it. Any tips would be more then welcomed on how to go about making a site. And good luck in your continued collecting.

mrclark		18-Mar-2005 08:18
I,m starting to get a hang of this HTML crap (or maybe not) enjoy the new background

Brian		17-Mar-2005 04:39
Fantastic collection Mr. Clark. Thanks for sharing.

mrclark		20-Oct-2004 10:41
No one place in particular just found them over the years at gunshows, internet etc etc. If you are looking to start your own collection maybe I can help you. Also the ppsh41 is for sale. It has all matching parts. Very rare for a 60 yr old gun like this. Stock matches rcvr, rcvr matches trigger group, trigger group matches barrel.

Ryan Neider		19-Oct-2004 22:02
Where did you buy your WW 2 weapons?

mrclark		09-Oct-2004 02:09

What the hell??? Isn't the goverment after you for having a silenced microuzi?????

mrclark		07-Oct-2004 07:50
Just because I was not posting pics of shotguns does not mean I dont own any. I just dont see them as all that interesting. See updated pics.

Robby		06-Oct-2004 21:13
nice collection very impressive, but you cannot have a collection without Shotguns i like the m4-m14 and basically the 45s but do yourself a favour and get some REAL firepwer and get some shotguns.

Aldreigh		02-Oct-2004 02:56
Yeah! I completely agree that this is far more pleasant than cocks and assess being being posted in Pbase. Being a collector of guns and vintage weapons doesn't really mean you're a WAR LOVER of doesn't abhor violence. If that's the attitude and frame of mind, is it also safe to say to demolish all WAR MUSEUMS AND MEMORABILIA'S.... This is Pbase and we comment on how the images are presented but not on the author's sexual or cultural preference... NICE COLLECTION YOU HAVE Mrclark. That's just me Sir..

phillip		26-Sep-2004 08:53
good collection. thank you for your efforts at sharing this

mrclark		20-Sep-2004 09:48
Nope all rifle mags must be pinned to five here in canada even the drum on the ppsh41 unfortunetly. The 1919a4 is exempt from the law and you can link yourself a belt as long as you want.

Guest		20-Sep-2004 01:38
Hi ! Quite an impressive lot of pictures you've got there. About the high cap mags I see with the PPSh41 and others, are those old pictures or is there a way for a bona fide collector to own original high capacity mags to go with our collector firearms? All mine are pinned to 5 rounds and I must admit I find this sad as it lowers the value of my collection. Yours in collecting, savoie_j fiori@charlevoix.net Quebec

mrclark		30-Aug-2004 03:49
How it's possible to like male ass and cock like you have on your sitehttp://www.pbase.com/photos75/nudes__portraits&page=4. I definetely find your site very disturbing. I'd look at pics of guns over pics of naked homosexuals anyday. But thats just my opinion. For someone who protests alot about the rights and freedom of others you sure dont seem to be practising what you preach. Funny how that allways seems to be the issue with people like him. You dont see me leaving comments on your alternate lifestyle section. MRCLARK

Alain-Philippe BAUDRY-KNOPS		29-Aug-2004 18:53
How it's possible to like war and weapons. I find distressing your site.

Guest		22-Jul-2004 01:25
Wow. Get some more pictures of the beautiful BAR! One thing is for sure...you have a good eye for vintage style.

mrclark		21-Jul-2004 22:13
Happy now? Because of you I had to go out and buy a 1918A2 B.A.R :)

No need for the course I can help you if you want.

Guest		14-Jun-2004 06:30
Very impressive stuff clark. I'm a fellow airsofter, although not a real gun owner (yet!). Your refinishing jobs have really inspired me, might try and take a course this summer on it. Thanks for the pictures, keep 'em coming! - Derek
