It looks to me like the barrel has been set back. We were just talking about one of those barrels too, short knoxform. Current production stocks are available...but the small parts can be hard to...

Well OK, but I meant firing the rifle. Posed shot so I guess the whole thing is moot...

I remember firing rifle grenades and getting the shotgun blast of propellant in the face. I think that...

USS West Point was a very interesting ship. I think it's the second one. SS America (1939) - Wikipedia)

Me too.

Foot on the slig, correct...

Eyes closed waiting for the earth shattering kaboom...

I took a few parts rifles to the field when I was training troops. You'd end up canabalizing your rifle so theirs worked...ended up having a written order to cease that sort of thing though. Just...

A bit of a "V" actually. Yes, I've seen those.



You should have a look again and see...

Tests were done with M1903 rifle barrels where the metal was removed to virtually paper thin and it took that much before the barrels burst during firing. Unless you are plugging the...

Apparently the orange ones were a later issue. I thought they had also been issued to pilots but maybe not. Yes, interesting. Initial parachutes had no capewell fasteners to release the harness so...

As you suspect, those are the very ones I was buying new out of PX in Ft Lewis WA in about 1989 I think. I could also find all the .45 brass I wanted on top of the walls of the tire house there...

So, for future reference, it DOES come apart the way it appears to? Just unscrew those two and it all drops apart?



You can see that with an original...

Yes sir it does. Noted.



Thank you.

Do either of you want to comment on the finish? Parkerizing should be correct finish for this particular one?

Manufactured pre DDay and in good shape, I'm posting a friend's rifle for some feedback. He's asking if it's original finish on this Savage arms #4...It looks like it to me. Some of you may...

Large chamber to fit oversize British ammo. Turning off a few thou allows you to recut the chamber and usually a full turn is done. Then you have a fresh chamber that will be to specification. ...

Looks like a Ross breech. See post #5...

I built a hunting rifle many years ago in the '80s from a k98k action, had been a 7.62 Israeli. I used a trigger housing without the mag block and a Doumolin barrel chambered from blank, no iron...

Now, you guys know those for sure were issued to paratroops? I'm not sure which exact ones, Schrade for instance and several others. I have a wreck of one here that came from a vet. The late Jim...

Yes, original...and the Yugos made EVERYTHING out of leather until recently. The original holsters in good shape look nice.

I change computer about every four years or it gives me greif. I don't think they're worth rebuilding, not today. Back years ago they were far too expensive to just buy a new one...now not so bad. ...

Wonder if Tokarev holsters would fit? I guess you'll want the correct one though... There are nylon and kydex holsters but the Yugo leather one would be nice.

Interesting, because of the games...

I've never understood Ebay delivery and mail. I'd ask a seller to just mail it to me and it would come direct, instead it goes from a couple hundred miles south of me to the great lakes and up, then...

Looks like they put a 39S&W slide on a Tokarev pistol frame. Looks like the sights are plain enough for we with poor eyes though.

It used to be we had lots of them circulating among the guys that were posted over to Europe. I haven't seen one since then.

Yup...
