Where can I get those Gauges in the US, I don't want to get on our DHS hit list, by getting them from Britain in the Mail!:crying:
+1 on your post.
Re Reloads, if I didn't load it, I won't shoot it!:nono:
End of Story.
No, no markings on the Butt or the Stock or underneath the Butt Plate, there is an R on the Flat of the Barrel and a 4 0 slightly to the side of that, I think that this is a Parts Gun put together at...
Yes it is!
I suspect that that Rifle has a Savage Bolt!

Is This, All of my Rifles are Shooters and this one, (Long Branch No 4 Mk1*) shoots very well, but someone sure Bubba'd this one and I can't understand why, I have had it for more than 20 years, but...
Roger that, it is blank on both sides.
I have another question though, why are there no disks or provisions for it on my #4 and 5?
I agree, it must have been assembled before 1918, there is no Prefix or Suffix on the Serial No., also the Butt Stock Disk is blank, what does that mean?
Armscorp, full Blown M14 Match Rifle, 200yd Rapid Sitting at a Service Rifle Match, believe it or not with Spanish Surplus SB Ammo, but in my younger days in 2004!;)...
That my Rifle was made in 1917 or is that a Model No.?

I bought a Set for my L1A1 at a Gun Show at Dallas Market Hall, several years ago for $25 It however did not include the Wood Carrying Handle, I am still looking for one of those, I'll try at the...
Thanks!
Yes I seem to remember seeing some with a Metal Cap!
I have another Question, were there different Stocks for the #5? I have seen at least a couple of #5s with kind of squared off Front Ends, instead of the rounded off like mine and no, they weren't...
I have one in 30-06 that I bought in 1967!

I have no doubt about that, but the OP asked what the best Sling was for Match shooting that Rifle and I merely gave him my Opinion, having been there and done that.;)
You could be right, mine has the same Triangle between the bnz and the Date!
The M1/M14 Cotton,( not Nylon) Web Sling will do you nicely!
There are Numbers underneath those Marks, the Swastika underneath the Eagles have been ground of and what looked to be an SS Rune has been partially ground off!...
I have a bnz 44 K98 (Steyer, can't make up my mind if it is a RC, but the marks on the Mag Floorplate puzzle me, has anyone seen them before?:confused:...
gsimmons! I'll get it!
Thanks!
I do have more, I have a Lithgow #1 and a Long Branch #4.
Thanks Guys!
BSA it IS, M/47 is barely visible right above 1945 on the Butt Socket, I had to use a Jewelers Loupe to make it out, it is stamped so light, sorry about the Picture, but It's the best I...
I have a #5 that I bought in the early or mid 60s, the Metal is deep black and the Wood is beautiful and almost looks like Cherry, it is marked with No. 5. Mk.1 on the left side of the Receiver, with...
