Yes it works, but I thought fouling gets into the bolt through the firing pin. There's no maximum life span for cleaning the bolt? I thought if it gets dirty, the firing pin can get stuck forward and...

I eventually got this to work a week ago. It helps if you keep the spring compressed against the side or it will keep nudging itself into an oblong position. I am glad I finally got to it though. It...

Intriguing rifle. Do you think it fought in North Africa?

(Guess not from the previous post. Wish I knew Arabic.)

Still, the history is cool. Physical explanation that the local Arab population...

I have put nearly 300 rounds since purchasing my Russian SKS and have yet to disassemble and clean the bolt. I tried a week ago to disassemble the bolt by hammering out the ping but it won't budge....

I held an SVT40 once it's freaking huge. They took a 19th century battle rifle and made it semi automatic.

Looks like a fun day.

I haven't seen people mount their 1907 bayonets on their rifles, so I made this video. I think a wonderful part about owning the SMLE is that they were made for these to be placed on them.

I was...

Even the leather sling is in good condition. That's pretty amazing. Was the whole thing covered in cosmilene?

I have no idea why I think lugers are so cool...

If you see a luger you definitely can tell it's a luger. They don't look like other pistols.

This is my Lee-Enfield SMLE. Straight from the queen's arse..nal Since it was dated 1918, I suspect the Kaiser surrendered because this rifle was created. Probably sat in England's reserve until they...

The price is going up on the Greek surplus ammo by $20. They also seem to be no longer attached to stripper clips.

Sad day, knowing that I didn't get any.

Interesting bit of history about the gangs. Probably why they shipped a whole bunch of them to the USA after England's gun laws got tighter. The Albion facility was probably an inefficient conversion...

That is pretty interesting to me. Usually pistols of this type have "Enfield" stamped in the place where this one has "Albion". A motor-works company of all things. I guess they contracted work to...

My No1 Mk3 rifle did this at the range too at 50 yards. I was using Remington Core-Lokt rounds so, well I thought that was the issue.

The rifling on my Enfield is very good and my rifle was well...

I want this Greek ammunition. Maybe I will order it with a Mosin Nagant Spam Can. How long do you think the supplies will last?

I don't know why, but I really like the Remington rolling block. It was a high powered, accurate single shot for its day and as such saw a lot of use as a hunting rifle. I think it was also exported...

I think your firearm was once owned by a weirdo or perhaps a flamboyant gentleman. Just looking at the face on the bottom weirds me out.

Rich weirdo's pistol.

Got it assembled. It's 100% ready for the range again. Thanks for your help. I definitely appreciate what I have more now that I took it apart and understand how it works.

oh nice! That means I assembled the thing perfectly. Well that's good to know, thanks so much.

Now I just need to figure out how to assemble the cylinder with the barrel and attach the combo to...

One of two things comes to mind. One, the SKS is a Russian imported Chinese made rifle when they first started making SKS' under Russian assistance. I don't think these are valuable, but they might...

While i'm at it since this is my first post I would like to say, "Hello milsurp forums!" I am much like you, I prefer wood and steel to polymer and plastic. I prefer a firearm with a story to one...
