OOP's thanks for the correction, got Hook and Roland turned around in my head. Insert Roland where Hook is and the high level of esteem within the competition community is the same for both.

Hook Boutin, a legenary Service Rifle armorer. He's still building rifles in I believe Arkansas even though he must be in his 70's-80s. Think he call's his shop Old Corps Armory. The street price...
Do you reload?
safety's broke, does the op rod have a relief cut? Post war rebuild. Late trigger guard, sights.

Model 1 sales, Bravo Co USA, White Oak Armament, Brownells, Midway USA, Cheaper Than Dirt, check Shotgun News for parts kits with pencil barrels (Sarco comes to mind) and there's a vendor there that...
How much would it cost to buy an authentic a4, and how much to build from parts? Vs. Buying a replica that you can put 4000 rounds through then rebarrel because you're not worried about devaluation....
Check out Creedmoor Sports and what they have coming soon. 03A3's and A4 replicas. They don't sell junk. A little over a grand for the A4, under that for a standard a3. They're shooters intended...
Criterion are button rifled and are made by Kreiger. To capitalize on the max accuracy potential of a barrel all national match mods should be done. So it depends what you want to do with it. Full...
You'd see exactly what's up. A hawkeye borescope would work too. At this point just put a new barrel on it. You're at the point of diminishing returns. You've got the tools. With what you've done...

Art Neergaard (Shootingsight.com) maker of rectangular apertures and other goodies marketing an adjustable trigger for M1 Garand and has a "speed hammer" in development. Good guy, quality stuff.

Check out Texas Brigade Armory website. I believe they build replicas.

Jeff Bartlett sells surplus bullets and brass via mail order. Search his name it will come up. Bass Pro Shops down by Gillette Stadium had a good selection of bullets too, Kittery is hit or miss,...
Seat any bullet you shoot through that only to mag length. You never seat to the lands on a Garand or M14. Slam fire risk, you don't want to blow up your gun. Don't shoot anything heavier than a...
Here's my question guys, has anybody come out with a finish that can duplicate the finish that Winchester used on their Gas Cylinders. The one's I've seen are like a plum color. IIRC Winchester...
Friend sent me an email, there was an M40 sniper rifle on the CMP that sold for $36000.00.
That's it, I'm lost for words. You could have 5 or 6 of them built by Iron Brigade Armory for that much....
