My Canadian 1916 leather set has a mixture of original and new leather, ie. yoke.
Has anyone dyed new stuff to match older gear? If ya have, how?

All gone.
I relented and purchased some re-pop leather for my 1916 Canadian set, so now I have a set with a mix of the original and the new Y strap.
I've heard of guys "re-finishing" new leather to make it...
I've got a couple operational PVS502 scopes that I am willing to sell. I could also use the top covers, if you are selling.... I'm in Calgary as well. You can send me a message here or on CGN.
K, I give up. Posted the photos twice, and twice they go away after a couple hours.
Try this again.:confused:

Serial number dates it at 1969.

Apparently I can't figure out how to post photos. It works on every other site, just don't know how to do it here...

Smellie, thanx. What are the specs for the Mk6 ammo? Bullet weight, powder, velocity, etc??
I had a Police Carbine, but traded it for my Canadian C1 SMG. I've got some more money now, and therefore, looking to obtain a live Sterling Police Carbine.
I don't know what happened to the photos of the covers and optics, I put in the last post? This site does some strange things sometimes....
The largest cover/mount is for the PAS4 IR scope. It's the 2nd from left scope in my photo. I put it on backwards for the photo:confused:, but you get the idea.
The other ones, I don't know, they...
Couldn't figure out how to edit the above post, but wanted to add, I can import if needed:)
If anyone wants to sell one of their Police Carbines, puleeezz contact me.
Thanx.

I'm going to assume the 420 is the round count. It also has a W/|\D stamped on the side, (bottom left corner in the last photo). The rivets/nails appear to be brass. Probably to prevent sparks in a...
Howdy,
I picked up this box to go with my Snider-Enfield. I'm running out of room with all the wooden boxes lately.:eek:
I'm figuring this was issued through Canada, and the 1888 & 1868 dates are...
The guy on the left is holding the Federal 201-Z 37mm gas gun.
Sorry, back to our FN viewing.
Here's mine. It originally was used/owned by the Regina Police Dept. And has the honor of being the rifle pointed at one of our more "illustrious" politicians from Saskatchewan, Colin Thatcher, when...
You have the ubiquitous model 603. The 9000000 serial range was primarily used for guns that went to police agencies.
3 guesses......
I've had this strip of decals for years and always wanted to display them in my office. Finally found a frame shop to do it, and I think it turned out exactly as I was hoping. The matting was matched...
Thanks for the input, but in your array of literature does it explain why it is oriented that way? I just find it looks goofy with the flat to the muzzle and can't understand why it would be done...
Alright, where is the definitive answer for the orientation of the front sight hood???
I've read some of the normal books, as well as some of the manufacturer correspondence. Been to the Citadel...
OK, everyone can stand down.
Got it working. Still need a PAM/Manual if anyone comes across one.
And it's got "Made in England" on it.
I know a couple of radio guys who've done a bunch of electric stuff. I'll buy one of them a lunch and have him look at the gear.
I was hoping to get lucky...
