Just so every one knows everything in my pictures are original nothing is repro. All of my guns are matching and from ww2 the 45 is dated 1942 and the m1 Garand is dated 1944. The 303 British was cut down and I'm in the process of restoring it but I know that it was used by the British 8th army in North Africa.

Hey, Mellot I'm really impressed with your collection you have going on there... Especially the USMC Summer, Winter and Dress Uniforms (those things are fading away faster than you can drop a penny)

I'm a collector myself and I couldn't help but notice that (possibly family pick) sea-bag of yours? E. Mellot - 3rd Marine Division - 3rd Shore Party Battalion - Headquarters & Service Company - (wild guess here) Communications Platoon?

Are you into reenacting as well?

[Marchese 1st MRB]

You are a lucky guy Mellot. God I wish I could have that M1 Carbine & Garand

[Mellott]

Yes I am into reenacting I reenact the 508th PIR 82nd airborne I have repro uniforms but everything in the pics were original even the paratrooper uniforms. and yes my grandfather was in many usmc divisions during ww2 he was in the 3,4 and 5th marine divisions he was a paramarine and worked with the CIA dutch french Turkish British he had TOP SECRET clearance.

[Mellott]

The funny thing is this isn't even half of my collection. I still have about 50 more guns and around 75 more uniforms.
