Thanks to everyone for your input and great ideas. Also, thanks for sharing your pics of some great looking rifles.
I appreciate what you guys have said and I understand what I really have is more akin to varnish as opposed to something like " Pure Milk Tung Oil". I'm trying to lock in the end result of using...
Okay Folks! I've been trying to apply Minwax Tung oil to a new Garand stock using the directions on the can with no acceptable success. The can calls for buffing the finish after about 5 to 10...
It was about a year ago when I had ordered from TGP and found them to be timely in filling and shipping the order. The parts were in excellent shape and priced right. As suggested above, He must be...
Thanks guys for all of the replies.
Okay, so I mixed up a batch of the culver's paste using 1/3 of Beeswax, BLO and turpentine. My question is : What should the consistency be like when the batch is cool? My batch has the consistency...
Hey guys! I was wondering if anyone has the recipe for Culver's paste? I think it was equal parts of Bees wax, BLO, and mineral spirits but I'm not too sure about the mineral spirits. Also does this...
This is a Birch stock from Dupage's. It was listed as the handyman special. It came with a Brown, oily, stained finish that kept oozing oil. I refinished by getting out as much of the oil as possible...
Weidner's is out of stock on all of their ammo cans.
Wow! What is it about Hoppe's bore cleaning solvent that women like so much. That stuff makes my wife very friendly. She's actually happy when I tell her that I gotta clean my weapon. All it does for...
I'm not sure what an M4 scope is and a #5 mount but if this were my rifle I would add a shim to the saddle of the back mount to bring the rear of the tube up slightly. I use strips of plastic Coke...
I went to the Range today to fire my Inland carbine that had been rebarreled with one of the barrels from Fulton Armory. This is the second time that I have fired my carbine since the rebarreling and...
It's cool Dave! I kinda know what you mean. I miss stuff like Major Culver's " Sea Stories" or the " How To Posts" from armorers like Gus Fisher and Roland Beaver. At least we have guys like "Mark in...
Congratulations Rick, on an outstanding acquisition! Not only a great combination but alot of history.
It looks like the CMP still provides Greek HXP at a reduced rate to affiliated clubs but the cost has gone up as well. It is currently 28 cents a round ( including shipping). Look at the "Club sales...
Has anyone tried the Delrin Timing block made by Satern? If so, How does it compare to the metal ones out there. Thanks for any info.
That Marine Raider page is something else. Thanks Mark, for the link!
I talked to Steve at Criterion today and he basically said that Criterion strives to stay within and keep to the low side (.3005) of the original blue print for the Garand barrels. I believe he said...
+1 for Brownell's lacquer sticks.
Thanks to everyone for alot of great info and responses. I'll call Criterion this afternoon to see what they have to say.
I'm reading the muzzle erosion with the ME gage from Fulton Armory. When reading, I place the gage in the muzzle while the barrel is in the vertical position. I place the gage as gently as possible...
So a new Criterion 30/06 barrel with a TE of 2 and a ME of 1.5 is considered acceptable? I would have thought that both would have been much lower considering they came off a modern manufacturing...
Does anyone know what the Criterion barrels are supposed to be like regarding military specifications? Are the pads supposed to be Chromed or parked on the Criterion barrels? How about the chamber...
