    I would have soaked in Muriatic acid and be done with rust. It works wonderfully.

    The pics here are not a "K bar" but a Mk1 I think. It was just leather stock. I did a kit too and the hardest...

    I knew a man here that was a gun business wholesaler, came to Canada after the war. He still spoke poor and broken English after 45 years... Apparently had to escape Italy as he'd had a falling out...

    Are you suggesting you'll cut tips off FMJ ammo? That can result in a stuck jacket in a barrel, be aware. It's not a regular occurrence but really CAN happen. Would be disastrous...

    With 5.56 I wouldn't go small bullet, but use a soft point. I've taken deer without trouble with 55 gr soft point. As for the .308 ammo, a 150gr soft point should be fine. The name brands should...

    Yes. It shouldn't be too magic either. Almost just that easy.

    OK, so much for that.

    The pics in the link and the link I've seen and enjoyed before.



    I wonder because they don't specify, there must have been refinish involved. Parkerizing, because FN...

    They are the same as the AR10, those roll pins go in and the end slips off. One side would do perhaps, then when cleaned you tap them back from outside. Make sure they're flush before using them.

    They'd be as new...wonder if there were any rebuild marks we have seen and not understood?

    Neat assortment, a little of everything, an old pattern BAR.

    What the uninvolved people should be asking instead of why we need such things is why do others want all of us unarmed.

    Those modified rifles and carbines are neat. Not just these two but the ones Turks did, Germany and so on. Very interesting and a collection all on their own.

    It's not as bad as it may look or you suspect. The pommel comes off, which ever one you have and then start on the leather. I've done more than a couple here...last one was the kit you suggest and...

    I don't think so. I wouldn't be too quick to be shooting that one until I had a closer look at things. It's not JUST that simple.

    We would have used it to show a safe lane of travel, usually done in pairs so you walk in between them.

    Can be done but personally I wouldn't. Far more accurate used like a mortar because you can focus on the shot instead of the recoil. Also you don't get a face full of ballistite powder.

    Looks like a rivet above the chinstrap loop on the near man's helmet, should be welded but looks like a swivel. Strange piece. Looks like a "D" bale but they were welded and short lived. Also...
