Sorry L42A1 serial number G32562 was auctioned today.

Good Day,
What about a recent auctioned rifle, G32562?

Good Day All,
I purchased my Longbranch No4 Mk1* South African target rifle rifle when I was stationed in the UK in 2011. The trade dealer had recently brought it in directly from the family that...

I was on the edge when the rifles first were offered but put a hold on the idea when it was id'd the mounts were not included like the ad said they were. Navy Arms/OWS said they were coming but after...

The rifle went for $7025.00 with three bidders taking it above the $5K mark..

Thank you. Great information.

Thank you! That makes sense. Do you have a firing position picture of the sling when used in this hasty indirect firing role?

Good Day
The slings are a great addition. The brass tabs are used when the slings are installed on the BM-59 series rifles. I'm not sure how but they are used with indirect rifle grenade ranging....

Good Day,
The tall instrument stand for telescope were often used often in conjunction with the heliograph Mk V during WW1 and even through WW2. Later on, they saw use as a stand alone item for...

Good Day,
Over the years, I've found a few variations of the No21 Mk Telescope stands. A Canadian 1943 REL, 1942 New Zealand, 1916 Siemen Bros. The shorter Canadian version was cut down from a...

While I decry the loss of so many pictures and visual documents, it allowed me to look back at threads, I hate to say, had forgot about, and reload/update the pictures with newer pictures. For that...

Good Day All,
I was fortunate over the years and have found a few examples of .22 conversions. I especially appreciate the SMRC variations. A great associated history.

It doesn't appear the scope is mounted. Whether a M81,82, or 84 (although unlikely) scope, the front end would just be visible.

Good Day,
The pictured rifle is a M1-C, not a M-1D. The rings of the G&H mount can be seen. What I can't tell is the if the windage knob is a lock-bar or T105 style. There looks to be a shadow of...

PM sent last night. Thank you

Good Day,
I'm looking forward to a report on how the show went. I acquired my Sjogren years ago and later found a "shotgun smith" in Pennsylvania to take a look at it, and replace the springs....

Good Day Gil,
A few years ago, pictures were posted on-line of transit cases attributed to Police departments. I was floored when one of them had my serial number, 547, marked on the outside. The...

Good Day All,
These pictures were provided by another collector (Andy Skizzo Bertelli). The chin weld (or higher) requirement appears to make a "precision" shot questionable. The m/65 scope data...

Good Day All,

Good Day All,
I took time in the new year to clean my Beretta manufactured Springfield Inc. M1. The story is that Bob Reese, the original owner of Springfield Inc. and later Reese Surplus purchased...
