Thanks for the replies. Trigger plate has a number on the backside and its completely different. There is a chip on the grip by the safety, I'm going to check them for numbers. Rear sight serrations...
Hello all,
I have the chance to purchase this Artillery Luger and just wanted to get some opinions. Seller wants $2500. Everything Matches except the trigger plate. Not having much luck finding the...
Can Anybody translate what this box of ammo says? Received it with a 99 that I just purchased. I see similar boxes in a few books, but none that match exactly.
Thank you, ...
Good points. Ive also heard that the floorplates would fall out since they pop out so easy and the soldier may not realize it untill its too late to find his.
Just purchased this Type 30 bayo and at first I thought someone did a bad job of just sharpening the last half of the blade. I did some googeling and I found a few other Toyoda manufactured bayos...
I use Pecard antigue Leather Dressing. I have some old Frogs I use it on and it puts the oils back into the leather and will make it supple.

Number on the bottom of reciever is called the assembly number and all the parts should match that number. Im sure someone with more knowledge will tell you more about that and when it was made.
Here are some pics of it. Everything matches assy number including wood except for the floor plate. Rear site has 3 numbers on it, 1 matches the assy number, not sure what the other numbers are on...
Went ahead and took the plunge for $750. Ill post pics when I get it all cleaned up.
Thanks for all the opinions
Thanks for the reply Patrick. It has been hard getting info from the seller. He did answer an email I sent and said everything matches, but the floor plate. He did not say if those numbers match the...
I bid on this type 44 and was the high bidder but did not meet the reserve. Seller did the haggle thing for $750. He told me that everything matches except the floor plate but did not know if all...
First place that comes to mind is ebay and the other would be a local Gun/Knife show.
This is a good place to start to see what you have.

Ive been watching his M3's and notice the same thing. He has 2 things going for him. Reputation-People feel safe buying from him and therefore they will pay more. He puts up good pics and gives a...

Wow that sure does help. Yes it is marked US M7 on the guard. Which Cole book are you using? I have book III on its way in the mail right now.
Thanks again,

Lately these Colt M7 bayonets have popped up all over the place. Some say they are Vietnam era in storage and others have said there 1980's production.
I got this one for $57 shipped, but not really...
Thinking of purchasing one of Coles books and wondering if book IV is a continuation of book III or an updated version of book III? Would prefer to buy just 1.
Thanks in advance,
Gerry
Here is some pics of my stock that is from my Remington o3a3. I thought I was 90% sure that it was a remington stock untill you mentioned the E stamp in the last pic. Anyone confirm what the E is?...
I had a co worker bring in Ruth's War Baby and on page 348. It looks like its correctly marked for the "second run" M1A1. The smaller crossed cannon was used on the bottom of the first run M1A1's. Im...
I thought that the Ordinance wheel should be at the bottom of the pistol grip?
Were some stamped this way? Thanks,

I do put it in the scabbard so the springs go into the groove. Its just that when I first start putting it in, the springs want to push the blade into the edge of the scabbard before the groove gets...
Just recieved this bayonet with a Jungle Carbine. The inside of the Scabbard has the fingered spring for the blood groove and It is difficult to put the blade in the scabbard without it getting...
Thanks! I have the clips (open end)facing out on the sling, but I have them covered in Bubble wrap so it may look the other way arround. Not sure which way is correct. Dont want to mark the wood...
