    It's at the back. That's why the step at the back of the foresight looks a bit odd.



    That makes perfect sense. They didn't know to use a rod in the bore to measure...against a closed bolt.

    Not me. I'd make one if I didn't have one. But that doesn't give you an original, just gets you shooting. I'd use good material like a drill bit and then flatten it off.

    Yes, that's the ejection port cut out.

    I think if this one was really examined we'd find it to be an assembly after the fact.

    The blades themselves come up from time to time as well. You can see the stub of the original blade is still in the pommel.

    Exactly...

    I'm getting the picture that you can't do any bullet pulling and seating SP bullets. You'd recover cost after by selling the FMJ to online buyers. It's not that hard to do...

    That barrel is out to lunch, the markings are in the right place relating to the front sight but I'll bet you'd find the front sight keyway area was cut off and this piece was grafted(sleeved) on to...

    That is the story. They had lots of hate and revenge planned and motivating them. They'd all lost someone.

    I'll bet lots of them would have been just as happy to go in wearing shorts and a cartridge belt...and rifle. They just wanted revenge for the cruelty they suffered.

    I know guys that shoot whatever comes to hand without issue. I know one that shot a steady diet of 150 gr soft point from Canadian Tire, Winchester...it was cheapest. Back in the '70s we shot...

    Philippine scouts...someone even has a heavy old loop handle cleaning rod sticking out of his barrel. That's an anchor...to carry.

    What can he do, cut your hair and make you join the Army? Let us know how this goes...worst case I can box my angle meter up and mail it. Gift...doubt I'll do any more of them any way. One old guy...
