Title: Hello from Colorado, USA

Hello from a new poster in eastern Colorado!


Thanks to all the forum members for posting about your guns, the history behind them, and how to maintain them.


About 20 years ago I found this M30 in an antique gun store and picked it up for $295. I think a bargain at the time.
It is in the 886xxx range with all matching serial numbers and the "made in Germany" Chinese characters. The barrel has decent rifling.
I haven't fired it in 20 years, but I just replaced the hammer and recoil springs and I plan to take it to a range shortly with some of the old ammo I collected over the years.
