Waterbury Buckle Discontinued Hooks for the M1907 Sling/Our New Dies Are Finished

[Richard Turner]

Uploaded Photos of Rock Island Arsenal Drawings of the M1907 Sling and M1907 Modified (Browning Automatic Rifle Sling) Took awhile to dig these up.


Also two part video of me (no actor, wife says don't quit my day job), forming the M1907 Frog/Hooks.

Upon comparing the finished part against Rock Island Arsenals Drawing, the part was dead on within the minimum/maximum tolerances specified by Rock Island. Another Outstanding job by Lumpkin Tool & Die LLC
