    Hey everyone I am new here, my name is Michael. I have been interested in the Second World War pretty much my entire life. I am 24 years old. For my job I own my own Firearm Photography business. My main interests are the European and African theaters of war. I am a collector and love doing photos of old world war 2 firearms. Thank you for the read in awful with introductions haha.
