Nice little revolver. I always wanted one of those. Had the five inch in .38 S&W and lots of the Model 10s but never one of those. They just aren't around here...

What a mess...

I've heard about that too, we had a thread here on it. I had no troubles either. I think I ended up with a heavy barrel 10" CAR and had mostly Canadian parts except the lower. I remember the parts...

My dad went ashore at Juno beach.

I also wonder about content of the tumbler? I found a tall margarine tub full of brass, no matter what caliber was all I could put in reliably. Any more was too much. I had the big tumbler... I...

Blue and Parkerize take the same amount of time. It's just that blue isn't as durable in the field.

Looking forward to the pics. This revolver sounds like the M&P pre Mod 10. Lots of guys had the M&P in police service.

That was what I thought, maybe bent the fingers to the existing shape? The tape to hold...this grenade has a flat bottom and ours were rounded to sit in the frag launcher.

I did mine for three hours without fail, and they never came out frosted. They always had a perfect shine like factory unless I added too much dawn or lemme shine. Then they would come out perfect...

For the forum, here are the OPs pics...

I haven't been even near there in years. Closest I've been was driving past to Shelton ten years back. No time to go look...

Send them to me. Check your PMs for address.

I carried one of the smaller whistles in my combat uniform for years. It was far easier to get the attention of troops across a field firing range in the wind with a whistle than yelling. Often...

I actually had a tour of the facility about '89 or '90 when I went to Ft Lewis WA for some sort of regimental training, probably ranges. I was in Recon Platoon and a Sgt then so at loose ends...

I had one of those about 1989/90 and that one looks about perfect. Only thing to the eye is the lack of gas tube between the slip ring and receiver as you point out...not being present. Nice...

Looks like an artillery thread.

Note the grenade, when REAL grenades were yellow...

Agreed, it could build a bomb. I've seen it happen. Less airspace creates problems.

So after 80 years they well may just become desirable trophies...at least we'll have them to see.

Agreed with the crapshoot. Years ago they were great but in the last 25 years not so much. Now we can't get anything across the border so not a problem but many here quit dealing with them years...

Cartridge at left looks like the snake that swallowed an egg.

I'd think you would see some rifling marks engraved even if slightly...

Agreed.

I meant shooting an actual seal, you'd have been roasted yourself.

All of them.
