There is that question, how the 7,7x58 chambered in a 6,5x50 chamber. Also how the 7,62x63 [30-06] fit in the action. Note case length differences. Some parts of the story might be missing.

It might be that the often[?] repeated release and retightening could change the rifle's shooting performance? For better or worse.

I would imagine there would be armourer and storeman and stores instructions for loosening that screw for storage purposes, if such was required, seeing that these rifles were often stored for...

First step is to check barrel length. I believe they were all shortened, making full restoration impossible. I believe metalwork was also done. Enjoy it as it is, a handsome rifle and a good...

Being outside lubricated, 22LR residue will always build up. Need to clean every now and then.

Were I you, I would cut the mag off flush, close up bottom. If it still has the original blade leaf, break off the bottom one. Makes a 4/5 shot mag. leaves a clean looking rifle.

Sten mag was a copy of the Lanchester which was in production, which was a copy of the WWI Bergman MP18, more or less. The MP38/40 basically used the later improved Bergman MP28/updated magazine as...

The most important part of an SMG is the magazine. All else falls into place if the magazine works reliably.

I recommend listing them one at a time in the right forum [top left] with many photos showing numbers, action, etc.

Sorry, missed the 1917 bit. Would be nice if they did No1/4/5 stocks too.

Their website doesn't show LE stocks?

Looks like a good buy. What does the seller want?

Have you tried 100m? The bullets might not be stabilising that close.

Many other possibilities but try one at a time.

Post lots of pictures in the correct forum, the experts will soon be along to help.

These body covers were usually machined to spec for optic sights and fit tighter than the normal ones. Not rare but not common either.

Lubricated ones work best. Keeps dust out of the Browning co-ax.

The blanks are the cause of the problem. Start the solution there.

Please add the pictures.
