We're getting OT - that same company Geely was the one to purchase Volvo in 2010 and announced last year a cooperation with Mercedes-Benz regarding production of engines. Plus since 2018 the owner of...

Nothing that I can find. Only 1.424.xxx entry is for a barreled receiver: 1424942 BRCVR 122632 DCM RIFLE SALES 1922-42

The NM start in the 1.427.xxx block, most prior to that are Sporters.

Nothing mentioned in the description hence I think they are all still working.

For lack of a .303 Bren Mag I cannot tell you - sorry.

I've already did the same as you - CAD draw and mill the bracket, my rifle was finished in March 2018. I've posted it here, with extensive pictures - this is how your rifle will look like when...

A bit OT but that website is funny .. among the references it shows picture of a replica Zeiss Zielvier scope in a replica mount, and under that picture it is described as "Kahles scope" :madsmile:

Gil, as you had requested to be posted in public: any records on TX1200 / M82 Serial Z-59235? If not, any records for the same serial with F or R prefix? Thank you!

Italians until recently still had a few hundred M1 Carbines which they recently sold. The majority of these rifles were in NOS condition, similar to the one from the auction. Probably half of them...

Roger, which German scope (manufacturer and model) and what is the issue?

Desolder the front sight. Maybe the original markings are still visible under it.

I first learnt on the Nepalese rifles when checking through the Faris collection. He had a No. 1 Mk.III pre-production without serial, serial number #1, #12, #10 (upgraded), #2 (pre-production,...

Please then let me know which threading the drawing of yours mentions and I'll check my rifle whether this threading would fit original drilled holes or not. Easy to verify.

I don't think original...

Re the threading: you know my story on the former WWI 1910 sniper rifle that I got for restoration. It has had its original threaded holes still in the receiver. I did NOT knew the correct threading...

I don't know the drawing you are referring to, but the threadings on my drawing are for screws with METRIC diameter and METRIC pitch. Remember the M1910 sniper rifle restoration I had posted on the...

Rob, simply because you had not seen one of the reproduction rails offered make it tough to discuss on it. Re inletting, originally the stock was in a line cut down. With the particular rifle there...

One day (I suppose I should use April the 1st?) I'll use a No. 4 receiver, cut off the receiver ring and weld a Lithgow receiver ring, make up a new account here and post as a newbie if anyone can...

Some people are attracted by low serial numbers, especially if they are different from later productions, even if it is just a minor difference. But this is not a general rule - to others it will...

The value of a K98k rifle depends a lot on the country it is in. I can't speak for Canada, but over here in Europe you should be able to get around 1500 Euro for this rifle. Maybe you should try...

Please remember, when reproducting the rear sight for the P.13 rifle, please do two of them. I'd be in need for one of those and I'm happy to of course pay for it :)

Wow, that one is really NOS condition. Is the bayonet matching numbers to the rifle as well?

This particular rifle is pictured in "The German Sniper" by R. Senich on p. 276 - but only shown in a certain area, so the incorrect stock, force matched bolt etc. are not visible.

Rob, two things: you are right with many points, but I do NOT believe this one is an original sniper rifle for a few more reasons that I had not mentioned before: first, I somewhere have seen a...

May I ask, did you buy only the stock or also the handguard(s)?

Given that period you can either use Weaver 330C, Weaver M73B1, M81, M82 or M84 scope.

Pictures of the rifle would be appreciated. Does it come with any capture papers as well?

PS: while most...

Glad that you finally accepted there are 03A3 rifles out there that have the Z prefix as well, not only 03A4 sniper rifles.

Re the thread, read it from the beginning down. It was mentioned the Z...
