enfield blueprints trade
I am looking for Delisle carbine plans, I have the Sterling manufacturing drawings but it has no dimensions. It is close true to scale so screen calipers will work to measure, anyone have plans they want to trade? I have Sterling SMG blueprints, L1A1 and T48 Fal variant blueprints, I have many other blueprints for military guns. way to many to list AK ANd AR complete, M249 etc...
I did just give them out but people never return the favor so I ask for a trade usually.

See post #24 on this thread Delisle carbine photos.
BigDuke6 appears to have something akin to orginal drawings.

I would say the drawings I have are the same as entee has, 1:1 scale but no size etc. There is a forum member who has the full set of engineer drawings.

One word of caution about scaling from drawings if I may. Every modern engineering drawing (mechanical drafting or draughting depending upon which spelling one chooses) text cautions the drafter, designer, checker and engineer to include the caveat 'DO NOT SCALE' - meaning don't measure the drawing to determine component dimensions, within the title box of every drawing.
Why, you ask? First and foremost, the drawing may or may not be accurately to scale. Secondly, paper expands and contracts over time from atmospheric changes (relative humidity, etc.). Also, any reproduction; scanning, printing, photocopying, etc., may have caused object outlines to change size or proportion.
