interesting read , i would love to find one to add to the collection but prefer to get a nice no8 first , very interesting
very nice assortment of US no7s , and excellent pioneer ,
i too was looking for a commonwealth no7 ..............i do have both the red and black but not in the same photo yet
...
the only one i might be skeptical of [perha[s porter kids knows = or one of the others i know to be knowledgable here] is if the muzzle ring of the original P13 for the P13 rifle could be different
...
sure glad the thread finally got to the reality that the p13 rifle became a p14 but the bayonet remained a p13 , until both became m17s and yes all fully interchangeable , both had the grooved scales...
still have mine , im not inclined to sell quite yet ,

not to belabor a point , but it sometimes crosses my mind that those who use incorrect nomenclature dont actually realize why it is so important to the discussions , this one startsed with NO3 mkI -...
nice grab , well worth the repair parts and the scabbard , they arent makin them anymore and originals are tuff to find
nice - great help and a good excuse to make it right ,
those loook like someone cut and fitted a set of reproduction P1913 scales to fit to me , nice job of fitting ????
loooks a bit like the russian nagant to me , interesting revolver
i enjoyed seeing these thanks , i no longer have any of my german items , its fun to see them ,
fun looking revolvers all ,
nice black army pistol , looks like original gear but its been years ago i was into this stuff , i have a similar set that is also 1918 original , congrats a very nice find
...
always thought it would be nice to have one but have never seen one to purchase ,
that is a great looking rifle bear and a nice backstory too
i love it when ya-all post these and explain them so nicely , i did not realize there were 50s models , ive only seen the 40s and only owned a couple 45s , it looks like a really nice rifle
really nice have you done a lot to them ? or did they come to you like this ?
for what its worth the checkered grip scales are correct for your revolvers date , 1927-1933 , the rest you have been well informed on ,
i know its an old thread - i have one as well , same year , still in original finish albeit a bit worn , my holster is a bit better but came with it and we knew the soldier well ,
...
ive been enjoying mine a lot , it shoots great and ive run it without cleaning so far to see how dependable it is - no issues at all ,
...
"...You will find the metric BGS, T48 and commercial imported FAL all with the long T48 flash hiders are right hand threads..."
so my imported belgian has right hand threads ?
...
i know a few who do - some go full auto , but ive not gotten into all that fallderall yet , the taxes and paperwork leave me wanting less complication in my life and happy with what i own , i do have...
i rather like it , shows some character [i like that] but intact [i really like that]a nice early example too ,
this applys for the M7 and M9 , only place you run into trouble is with the carbines - not enough blade protruding to do anything but irritate
it appears the star was cacelled on this rifle , unless my old eyes are not seeing clearly - always a possibility
