Yeah, I figured it was a cut down rifle. I was just kinda wondering on all those marks, which ones were Japanese, which were Chinese. I read Japanese and there isn't much of that on this rifle. I...

Well, I still have this rifle and I'm not sure exactly what to do with it yet. If it's a T38 carbine I'd try to find a carbine stock and restore it back to its as issued configuration. If it is a cut...

Whoever chopped this up did use it though. They put it in a monte carlo stock, put sight bases on it, shortened the barrel and re-crowned it, glass bedded the action (albeit not extremely well) and...

I looked at the top of the receiver with a loupe and there appears to HAVE been something there. On the top of the receiver there were letters. all i can make out is there were two numbers maybe in...

I'm not sure I understand. I believe I answered any direct questions as accurately as possible. I took photos of every part of this rifle that is left. I would love to know what the individual marks...

I'm not trying to pass this thing off as anything, all I asked is what is the deal with these numbers. I did not bubba this rifle. They don't appear to be buffed off or removed cause the numbers that...

I mean, is there any significance to it being a "1"?
Someone bubba'd the heck out of it but the receiver is still in good shape and would make a good gun to re-do properly.

Any background on that?

This is a sporterized Mauser I've had kicking around, was wondering what is up with the numbers on it.

Hello all,

I have an excellent condition FN m1951 army (ABL) rifle and was wondering if anyone knew the twist rate of the barrel. It's a .30-06 all matching number rifle so I'm pretty confident...

I'm sure Springfield Sporters is swell, I've been trying to get through to them for 2 weeks by phone, email and finally FAX... No answer, No replies, No nothing.. not sure if they had an emergency or...

I'll try the other two places you listed. Ssporters does not answer their phone, emails, faxes.. nothing. Tried sarco too, but I did get my stock and front band screws from them.

Will it fit on an m38?

Yeah, I see. Seems like anyone who bubba'ed these things all read from the same book of hacking up and ruining rifles. I mean, I've seen some really beautiful smartly done sporters.. but damn I see...

I am in the process of repairing what some hack did to a 7.35 M38 Short Rifle. I had to do it though as the bore was absolutely excellent. I got it without the bolt, and with the stock hacked off...

Ok, here are the pics.

I have what looks like a Type-38 Carbine. It has no Mum and no markings where the Mum should be. It was never there. The front sight has rectangular cutouts on either side. It's all matching and says...

As I said. I called there once and the Woman said that anything that old would be in archive and she didn't have the time to go find it. I called another time and I was told they didn't have the...

Hello all,

Been collecting for about 20 years, been reloading a bit longer. Shot on the CT state Juniors Highpower team years ago. Just got my C&R a couple months ago. I do firearm repair and...

I understand the S/N makes things easier Bill, I really do. As I said, I called the State Police twice and they basically said the first time that the stuff was in archive, the second time they said...

Essentially there is always one or two people that want to find fault with something. Sorry I PM'ed you Krinko and thinking that checking your trigger wasn't too damn difficult. How about being...

Years ago I had a Swedish Mauser stolen from my home,

I am just asking folks who have a 1923 to check for the following:

It was a Carl Gustav manufacture, 1923.
