I recently picked up a 1907 sling in reasonable condition. I will be cleaning it up a bit because there is a lot of verdigris on the brass and the leather has some cracking from being left on a rifle...

I recently picked up a 1907 sling in reasonable condition. I will be cleaning it up a bit because there is a lot of verdigris on the brass and the leather has some cracking from being left on a rifle...
The .310 bore diameter is common to many of these rifles. The shooter Krag I have also has a .310 bore but in much nicer condition than the bore in your carbine. The shooter I have has been tampered...
The Japanese spent a lot of time in Viet Nam. It is very possible that your rifle is actually a bring back. But, like the rest here, I am skeptical as well.
They have nothing for the Webley No5 New Model RIC. By the way, mine has the fluted cylinder
I need some assembly/disassembly instructions for a Webley No5 .455 New Model revolver.
A schematic would be nice also. Can anyone help me out??? I really don't want to spend over $100 for a...
Mike Venturino really likes the Mitchell Mausers.
He has one he bought that they had rebuilt into a sniper clone and found it to be very accurate. They have new made, laminated stocks and all...
I have two model 1891 rifles.
One is a long rifle that is in very nice condition but has the crest very nicely ground off. Some I've seen are almost as bad as some of the defaced mums on Arisakas....
In Canada, the Type 1 rifles are rare as hen's teeth. I had been looking for one for close to 40 years. Even back in the day when I could just order them from across the Line. A few came up for sale,...
I have seriously been considering picking up a 60 foot trailer from a tractor rig and covering it with a layer of reinforced concrete.
I have at least 800 square feet of my house dedicated to my...
To bad I can't bring that Type 1 into Canada for a decent price. The brokerage fees are killers. I could sure use the bolt or even the bolt body from that tinkered rifle.
The Type 1 bolt is...
Personally, I would shell out the $400 for that rifle in a heartbeat.
Decent Arisakas of any stripe are rare in Canada. Most of them have the mums ground and grungy bores as well as beat up...
Brian is very good to deal with. I vouch for him as well.
One thing to keep in mind.
One Lee Enfield is never enough. One is just enough to get you hooked.
To many, they are ugly...
Yeah 303T missed out again.
By the way that 7.62x39 is every bit as gorgeous as the M10 B4. Biggest difference is that it really prefers hand loads to the corrosive Czech stuff. Seems to like the...
The threads are the same. Your big issue will be cutting the angle for the extractor lever on the bottom and getting it indexed/headspaced properly. You will probably need a chamber as well.
I...
You need a whole different fore stock and another hand guard. In the US, there are several sources for those parts. Such as Numerich or maybe Century International. From what I can see of US prices...
enfield303t, for the most part I'm just pulling your chain. Glad you saw it.
You're right, there wasn't a lot of sales going on there. Maybe that's why there were so many good deals on both...
enfield303T, you need to take off you blinders when you go through a gun show. In Lumby, you walked past a No4 MkI converted to 7.62x51, wearing a laminated stock, priced at $575. Not only once, but...
MJ1, as usual your pics are great and so are there subjects. I would dearly love to see your collection one day. Everything you've ever posted has been in excellent condition.
You have managed to...
Hi everyone. For all of you that are interested, the annual Salmon Arm, BC, Canada, Gun Show is on this week end.
It is open from 9am to 5pm Saturday and 9am to 3pm Sunday.
It's usually a...
Thanks browningautorifle it means Bull Sh-t. I certainly didn't intend any. I also wasn't offended. Just didn't want the mods to get on our case.
I did find out the answers I was looking for and...
Thanks for the replies. I really appreciate the time and information. A member on CGN came up wth the company I was trying to remember. The name of the company was Centaur. They reloaded surplus...
browniningautorifle, those are pretty harsh words. I can't prove my statement and I wislh I could. I am drawing from a rather shady memory of the ammo I mentioned. It wasn't an ententional BS...
I've started another thread in another section on this.
I made a statement about a Canadian company that supplied reloaded milspec cartridges to the US military. It was 5,56, 55grFMJ.
To my...
Ok guys I made a statement about a company in Canada that was reloading military cases for the US military in 5.56.
I don't remember the name of the company and I have been called on the US...
I could easily be wrong about this but during wartime production, I think some Savages were stocked with Canadian Long Branch wood. I know that Savage wood or at least US made stocks came into Canada...
