Do it inside of a plastic dry cleaners bag.
Just remember NOT to put your head inside the bag for too long :madsmile:
This way you will not lose the ball or the spring when they launch into orbit

Ammunition boxes was my guess.....
Artillery and as you said, small arms chests for arms and ammo.

The M82 was basically the Lyman Alaskan.
They are a simple scope unless the OG lens cell has been loctited or sealed in.
Then they become a bit of a BIT*H to work on.
I would suggest getting a...

Whomever cleaned it did a nice job!!
Even the screw slots are clean...

I have shipping records of Canada sending boat loads of rough sawed hardwood blanks and most of it is walnut.
It does not specify what it is for so I am assuming it was for rifle furniture.

The 32 mounts made in India are HORRIBLE!!!
Some of the Chinese mounts are very good, but it depends from which maker. There are several makers.
I have rebuilt a number of the RSM scopes (Mk.1/2...

The manual mentioned above is a copy of all the blueprints of the parts used in the M84 scope.
There are no instructions on how to tear them down, reassemble or make adjustments.
If you want to...

Looks like a good, clean, unmolested 4T
Wonder if I sold that one back in the late 50's and early 60's when I worked in the surplus store in Edmonton...

The rifle cases, assuming that is what they are, look like hand stitched packing felt...Look at the crude stitching up the length of the case or ???
Did they cut the stitching or did it just rip out...

By the looks of the screws, some one has been playing around with it and recently.
Not much goes wrong with the Mk.1 other than the detents break off and jam the turret from turning.
Does not look...

There will/should be labels available shortly.
I have lent a spare label I had to a friend who is going to get some made.
I will post here on the site, when they are available and looking at my...

Stay away from muricatic acid..
What you need is phosphoric acid..
I make repro No.4(T) chests and have to clean the coating off the slotted screws before bluing them and have been doing it for...

It sounds like the post war Czech refurbish stamp.
About 1/4 inch or 6 to 7 mm OD

The rivets look like tube rivets to me.....FWIW
If they are Auzzie they will have a makers name on them.
No makers name and no marks on the brass. Hmm...
The brass does look too good to be true...

The 08/15 bipod will fit and was used on many T gewehrs.
The other more commonly used bipod had a wider stance, tublar legs and larger feet.
The feet were almost cupped, and I assume to compensate...

There was going to be a copy of the base and rings for the 67 scope.
I had one and sent it to someone in NZ who was going to copy it and do the cnc program so copies could be made.
The ONLY reason...

There were Pattern 14 rifles fitted with Aldis scopes that were part of the 1922 to 1925 rearming of the Latvian Army.
I have one of the scopes and will photograph it and see if I can get the photo...

That is a hard one to call..
It does have a couple of the features of the repro that looks like someone did a number on with a file and the number stamp on it to make it look like the real thing....

I'm looking for an A5 scope in any condition, even with a bent tube.
I just need a few parts from inside of it.
If you have a beater kicking around the junk box and want to make a buck or two on it...

I also go with Roger in setting up the scope to the rifle.
If it is a matched set you SHOULD not run into much problem unless you have a damaged mount, which I did find once......
I have a distant...

I believe this is the target you are using..

Be VERY careful with bino's and as Gill says, they are a bit*h to work on and if any grey or powder on the screws they are normally toast.
I have a few sets here I was sent for evaluation and other...

Happy Birthday Doug!!!!
WOW !!! it has been years since we last corresponded so if you read this drop me an email.

Bob Faris DID HAVE more weapons than the British Army.
It was known in the collecting circle as Pattern Room USA
He got a lot of stuff that was out of the ordinary, to put it mildly and had...
