That's more info than I would have hoped to have gotten.

Can anyone provide information about front sights marked TS'G' on the front of the sight. I never see these referred to in literature and have only ever seen a picture of one. That picture was on...

Can anyone educate me on the correct spring guide rod style for S'G' carbines?

Specifically, I'm wondering when was the transition over to flat end from pointed end styles?

What style should a...

I looked at the IR-IP hand guard that I bought from William W Moore a while back. I haven't been able to get a hold of him to ask questions. I measured the thickness on the back part and it was...

Thanks again for your help. I've seen pictures, but it's difficult for me to differentiate between handguard types in pictures with my inexperienced eyes. The Riesch book has a table that has an...

Correct. I haven't received it in the mail yet. I used the stock photo.

The N is very faint in the picture. The grooves are unique compared to other sights of this type I have seen.

I am hoping that the collective knowledge here can educate me.

I've seen literature that states Irwin-Pedersen carbines only used deep groove handguards.
Also a couple of sources that state S'G'...

I don't want to sound ridiculous here, but be careful with linseed oil. It's probably been mentioned before, but it spontaneously combusts.

My neighbor burned his garage down a year and a half...

I didn't know if a certain style was used then changed over time or it varied with the operator.

Can anyone verify for me that there was an N marked front sight that had two grooves on each side of the center? The picture I saw looked like it was ball mill cut and only ran part way, not the...

Sorry, everyone. I read some bad information. I just found out that all IP-W recoil plates are type II only. I was very confused.

There were type II and type III IP-W recoil plates. Is there a barrel date or some other way to know when type II switched over to type III?

Thanks!

I have seen slides commonly marked with the number 2 on the left side. Recently, I saw one marked with the letter A. Using letters was common for S'G' slides.

Is there a serial number range for...

Yes. I purchased the safety on September 9th. The prime marks are vertical, not slanted like the Riverbank fakes.

I bought one off e-bay. It doesn't look anything like a Riverbank fake. But I have never seen an authentic one with which to compare.
If the one I bought is fake, I'll post pictures after I...

Shirley, Mass sound right?
I just read that President Suspender and the George Frost Belt Company merged about 1930. Once people stopped wearing suspenders so much, the company began to manufacture...

Can anyone show a picture of a sling made by President Suspender? Is there any way to know if a sling was produced by that maker?
