Springfield 1903
The Springfield Model 1903 is a bolt-action, magazine-fed rifle developed for the United States Army in the early 20th century, drawing inspiration from contemporary European military designs. Adopted in 1903, it became the standard U.S. service rifle through World War I and remained in use in various roles into World War II. Known for its solid construction and accuracy, the rifle was widely respected by soldiers and marksmen alike. It played a significant role in American military history and later became popular in civilian marksmanship programs and ceremonial use, making it an enduring symbol of early modern U.S. infantry arms.
This particular one was owned by a Marine vet and has mismatched wood furniture, so was probably a surplus rifle bought on the secondary market. The condition is good for its age and is perfectly operable.
USFA .22 Zip Pistol
The USFA Zip .22 is a compact semi-automatic pistol introduced in the early 2010s by United States Fire Arms, notable for its unconventional design and distinctive appearance. Chambered in .22 LR, it featured a low-profile, top-mounted recoil system and an internal hammer, giving it a sleek, minimalist look unlike traditional pistols. Despite the innovative concept and lightweight polymer-and-metal construction, the Zip .22 gained a mixed reputation due to reliability concerns and limited commercial success. As a result, it remains a niche and often-discussed example of experimental modern firearm design rather than a widely adopted handgun.
