Canvas pouch for the Russian F1 fragmentation grenade (pineapple type) or the RG-42 (can type).
I remember when you could buy these Indian T's from Springfield Sporters in Pennsylvania for $400.00!
Russians tended to slap shellac all over their captured German stocks and if this was a Russian capture I see no reason why they wouldn't do it to this rifle. My P14 has the same mark although...
Mike16,
Your question has been discussed before. Type the following in the search box.....No. 3 Mk 1 and M1917 difference
They are originally based on South African vehicles and as you said they are better than what we had before - HMMWV's with jury-rigged armor. And you are right that as we upgrade vehicles to protect...
A bit top heavy on the curves but definitely well armored and gave a feeling of security. Visibility was much better than the other models I drove and I was surprised with the interior driver's...
I had a chance last week to make an official visit to the Army Test Center at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland. As part of the orientation I had the opportunity to drive a couple of MRAP vehicles...
Madcratebuilder,
That frog looks like a new reproduction. I believe the correct frog for the K31 bayonet was the one with the buckle as in the picture below. I was not able to find one in my...
Some sort of instrument case.
[QUOTE=madcratebuilder;135633]AIM's rifle prices seemed reasonable. The accessories seemed kind of high, but it's been a few years since I bought my stuff. I think I paid 40-45 bucks for the...
Treeman,
I sent you a PM reply.
"Is your Mauser in one of these images?"
Yes, my "mouser" is sitting on the chair in the second photo.
Are you're talking about a sling ring mounted on the left side of the butt stock like the FR-8 (which I believe is a modified '43) or the sling mount on the bottom of the butt stock. If it's on the...
That's a definite rejection.
I also had a SLED from them for several years that had the same problem
I have several Garand clips that I modified to hold 2, 3, 4, 5, etc... If you're handy with a drill, file, and other hand tools here's a link: http://www.fulton-armory.com/2clip.htm. Somewhere I...
That's not embarassing! Embarassing is just learning there are such things as Mobile Apps and iPhones!
[QUOTE=Patrick Chadwick;133627]The battle sight aperture is a CWOA* for target shooting.
Much too large, and set for something like 300 yards (the real figure is probably in Ferris' book...
I was cleaning up a Swiss model 1918 bayonet and seeing my M1 Garand standing in the corner, I thought why not? . . . It fit perfectly but does not lock up. While I'm on the Swiss bayonet topic,...
alamo308,
Maybe it's one of those Twilight Zone moments.....try this Our Catalog
I just bought one 2 hours ago?
Thanks Skip,
It's in such good shape that I would have not thought WWII. Any rough guess on the value?

Back around 1963 when I was at Camp Blanding, Florida, I "picked up" a fighting knife in fairly good to excellent condition. I know very little about these knives and my camera is down for the count...
I was on the Aimsurplus website today and noticed they are selling ORIGINAL K31 bayonets and scabbards, cleaning kits, slings, magazines, and muzzle covers. The prices for the original bayonets are...
Nope, a No.5 with a very sharp point!
Hey OxfordAndy,
Does dropping a bayonet point down on my bare foot yesterday count for the Scar Club?
