found what I was looking for
Does anyone have a copy of this book? If so can you post a picture of Figure S100. It would be of a variation to a Trapdoor bayonet frog.
The drawing number on original M1D barrels ends in 555. This is located under the rear hand guard or on the right side when the op rod is pulled back.
The small stamps are sub-inspector stamps. It is a real A4. Now you need to find the Redfield rings and a scope. If you do not want to spend the money for a M73B1 look for a Weaver 330. Scope or...
The rings are also for the rocket launcher.
The rear sight as other stated is a Model 1901 not a Buffington. The Buffington rear sight was only on the Trapdoors.
Nice find.
Carbines did not have lower sling swivels. If the stock has one or are plugged it is a rifle stock. There were rifles made in 1899. Carbine's had 22 inch barrels.
Yes it has 2 zeros, 000748, It is not marked at all with the address in Devine. Only the s/n on the top of the barrel under the hand guard
Bob, do you have any data on 00748 Devine? I think it was sold as a receiver.
The parts are available. There is Gun broker and Ebay beside the other mentioned sellers.
Look good, They used the stacking swivel and band for the lower band. You may need to find an new band as the screw that is there may have ruined the original threads. But all in all not a...
To know what or where station 3 is in Springfield's production process you would need a layout of their assembly line and stations where testing or fit was done.
It could be a Springfield test bed receiver that was later built into a rifle. Sta 3 could be station 3
Yes it is a repo M84 scope
I am putting together a 1897 Winchester trench shotgun. I an awaiting the heat shied. It is coming unblued.
So is there an easy way I can blue it or is there someone who can blue it for me? I...
Could be used as a drain?
Well I am confused. You want an assessment on a Krag you have already sold for $1995? The krag in the pictures has been refinished and is not 1896 correct. The bolt is an M1898 and some of the...
Pictures would help or a link to the auction showing pictures.
Agree with the high price. But need better pictures of the bolt cutout in the stock and pictures of the bolt handle to determine if the stock and bolt are original and not reproductions. For that...
Reproduction. "Hard to find for more than a decade" Right. someone is making them again. Reproduction
I would use a new tooth brush with stiff bristles and nothing else for the metal. As state do not use any liquids as they will stain.
Look closely at the inside of the hand guard and barrel channel. There may be impressions from the O rings.
The USMC barrel was manufactured by Sedgley hence the S in a circle. They have been known to be bent.
You can remove the sight from the top portion. Than get a piece of metal that is the correct thickness and make your own sight. Any sheet metal or welding shop should have a piece of scrap they...
Mike, the s/n is a duplication in the Government system, somewhere. The first A3 (Z3899008) I purchased around 1989 from a private party. The second came from the CMP. I do not know which...
