    Thanks Guys

    I think you have it bracketed. It's not a M1923 style belt --- no straps and snaps for the stripper clips. Buckle looks like brass rather than pot metal. And the date stamp is starting to look more...

    Bravo Zulu!

    Worthy task. Noble result. It speaks of the character revealed by adversity. Thank you for what you did. On another forum some are still trying to justify the utter destruction of an old rifle simply...
  16. Of course.

    Acknowledged. If I find a suitable replacement I will tag the original part and retain it to conserve the rifle's originality.

    In extreme examples you may need to apply dye to both the old and the new pieces. Nice thing about the dye is you can do successive applications to attain the intensity of colour you desire. Go slow....
