I don't think we even kept one in the collection there after. There's a Fiat and a Panther...
I remember having my hair deliberately short in hot weather so I could wash my head in a helmet full of water...long ago now.
The whole bolt looks like an upside down BAR bolt.
Well, while you folk were using it and we were looking on, we always wondered about it. When we finally got them we asked why didn't we have these things when we were young enough to use them? ...
The German helmet has holes in it...so no good for a bucket.
I found carrying more than two belts on my body was overweight...500 rds is heavy. It would behoove you to fire more just to make it manageable.
I'll have to keep a lookout for some of those links...you don't see them here of course. They'll be specially hard to find after all this time.
Probably like a 37mm anti tank gun...
I had the same rifle as Bill but .223 and heavy barrel... I didn't use anything to hold the screws. Just tight and shoot. Most times it's an inexperienced shooter doing what and "Old" sweat has...
Now those are neat, we never see those here.
I carried one for two months in the Australian jungle and had no problems, cutting it down wouldn't have made any difference to me...
Here's more on that. The second front sight pic looks to have been beaten flat from a very rough front sight. Probably doesn't even resemble it's former configuration.

I had a couple over time and one of the originals, which was a TRW serial 434343. I had a low number SA... Last I had was one of the Norincos that had the hardened parts so it was a good example. ...
Well, these guys will tell us soon. It'll still sell anyway, someone would take a copy that can't afford to pay correctly.
Nice, nice, nice piece. I'd love to get my nose right over one of those for a close up look. I'd also like to shoot one sometime to see how they are...very nice piece.
I always found the first repair was the most important. If a guy used sub standard stuff to repair it always showed. Unless you could clean it out, care makes it about invisible. Like this one...
Are you asking if it's authentic Frank? Everything sells...
There should be a shoulder. I can't picture a military barrel without one, nor a civilian barrel presently. If no shoulder then it would turn against a ring inside the receiver, or like the Lee...
Makes you think twice before doing it again.
BAM!!!... I know well what that's like from walking the farm fields with a brush scythe looking for thistles to cut. Just then a thunder storm blew in and the strike missed me so close I could...
I'm thinking this one was put together from others. The lower sling loop is example. It's really hard to say about this one without being completely stripped and examined. I wouldn't buy it on...
He'd have been posted to the north fort of Ft Lewis, most of those shacks are gone now. Just an open area. Google maps shows buildings but when you go to the ground outside the perimeter fence it's...
Well, I can see how he was hit by lightning, carrying a bunch of lightning rods with him daily.
Doesn't matter, we love 'em...
