I agree 100%. Excellent movie and very well presented. I double-checked the story behind it and the facts don't seem too far off.

The No. 4T did it's work and did it well. No over-the-top...

Sarco used to have a pretty significant store of original parts. I have bought from them before but I am given to understand that many of their parts are repro parts now.

You might look to other...

I used Gorila glue and have had great success. One drop adhesives don't have much strength but the Gorilla glue provides strength and resilience. Give it a chance. No heat failures, no stress cracks...

About 25 years ago (give or take) when John Jovina items appeared on the surplus market, I understood that the company had imported like-new rifles as well as issued rifles in varying states of...

The rifle looks like many, many rebuilds in the light grey park. Since it won't be original any way you do it, do what you feel is best but specify to your refinisher that manganese park should be...

My Tanker (or whatever you want to call a shortened M1) is light and I have since replaced the walnut stock with a very lightweight stock from Midway (I forget the manufacturer) and it is easy on...

This is a Federal Ordnance rifle built on WWII rifles. I also have the same marking on the side of a 2 million M1. These were later 70's or early 80's built rifles if my memory serves me correct.

Nice looking rifle. Hope you enjoy it as much as I have enjoyed mine for almost 50 years. Fine rifles and so good to carry into the field. Perfect balance and feel at the shoulder. Guess I should...

I have owned, repaired and fired Enfields since 1963 (first one cost $12 in surplus shop) and I have never heard of an oval chamber. I have checked some of the chambers on the 30-odd Enfields I own...

Nice rifle and, with no import marks, it must date to before 1964 for an import date. Those are really fine rifles in many cases, not abused in my experience with them. Some of the later Malaysian...

John Jovino in New York assembled these rifles on apparently unused receivers in the early 1990s and they have been around for years. They are purely new rifles using older, NOS parts. I don't think...

Willliams made scope mounts for the Garand in a time (the 1960's and 70's) when original and repop M1D scope mounts would not have been available to put an original M-84 scope on a rifle. These are...

Not a FB "person" so the site doesn't permit me to view the page.

The rifle is "unissued", not "new." It has never been pressed into service or issued to use in any armed force, at least from what I can see. The stock is perfect with no blemishes or dents. There is...

Go with the experts, birch and walnut wood on this Garand. Nice looking birch even though it is not my favorite wood on this rifle.

I agree wholeheartedly with Brian Dick. Perhaps I should have spoken more carefully. Jovino's rifles were superb and the ones I have are new for all intents. The "Irish Contract" wrongly named and...

No sense in re-calling the good old days when rifles were oh-so-cheap. The best part is that most of the rifles sold today as Enfields would have been junked all those decades ago. The stuff coming...

Lots of folks wouldn't touch the Korean Garands because they were "tainted" by having been held in foreign hands (literally, not figuratively!). This same psychology was carried over into the "Greek"...

OK, so that's how it works. When will these be on sale and for how much?

It is a shame that the response time from the company "managing" your gun access is so slow, but these things happen I...

I noticed the case is marked "No. 1" as if to imply there may be more to come.

Also, I wonder who the seller is? The location is marked as "New York."

Bruce (and others), remember that there was no such thing as short receivers (Ruger, Remington) and a short cartridge was impractical in those longer receivers. You could also buy labor for $5-7 an...

Harlan and kragluver, thank you for saying what I felt.

When these rifles were sold in the 20's and 30's from the local state guard armories, they went for less that $5 in some cases. As you said...

Personally there are plenty of "shooter" grade rifles and I would never shoot a "collector" as there is simply no point to it.

I would hasten to add I have two collectors I purchased from CMP...

I recently came into possession of No. 4 magazine that is almost new (judging from overall condition and the lack of any visible wear on the follower). I thought perhaps someone here could shed some...

It's hard to imagine a war being fought with ANYTHING packed in a wicker basket (reference the second picture of the radioman on the rear of the transport). That was a truly different time.
