Hi Southforkroad, sorry, I can't give any information on what you're looking for. I just wanted to say I love the stylised serial number stamp. Very nice looking rifle btw.

Just a WAG, but does the rifle look like this one? I think the EAL rifle was made on a later dated action, but maybe it was an inspiration for a copy?
Looking to buy an original trajectory plate and brass brads for my 1914 M96 Swede with reasonable postage to Australia. Show me what you have please..
Many thanks

Apparently this person was a dentist. He killed four people in a house and then he just went rogue. Very sad event. No reason given so far as to motives, intents etc. My families sympathies to all...
Hi,
This data was taken from the current ADI (Australian Defense Industries) reloading manual. The manual doesn't specify an action that was used to test these loads.

PM sent re book order. Waiting in anticipation of an awesome read and as a reference book.
Perhaps something from Leupold? Mark AR MOD 1 1.5-4x20mm Scopes | Leupold
Big vote of thanks RobD, the whipcord arrived today. I must say, very safely packed too! Better than some buys on 'Bay I have received. Being put to use on the transit case tomorrow. Once again, this...
Hi Daan, I would if I could. Mate, I'm a hands on type of bloke, not too computer savvy.
Thanks Salt Flat, This one has been sitting in the safe since getting it. I have thought about a clean up/ resto for a while. The photo of the butt show there is still gravel or grit still embedded...
Hi, I need some help here with a potential restoration/clean up. I acquired this Mauser some years ago and did some research on it's history. The rough inscription on the side looks like it had been...
Hi Cinders, My 2 cents worth of research here. It would appear that the scabbard is quite possibly a WW2 issue/ repair. WJH over B stands for W. J. Hill Ltd, located in Birmingham. Their wartime code...

The cut away section would be there to show how the small camming lug on the cocking piece engaged the underside of the bolt. To demonstrate the positions of full cock and fired.
The rims were not splitting at the pin strike, generally underneath at the bottom of the bolt head. The pin is nice and rounded. I'll measure the protrusion, but it is enough for reliable ignition....
Hi, Thanks for that info. I don't have a problem extracting cartridges and there are no bulges etc. The matter that I do have is that when I use high velocity ammo, it occasionally splits a rim on...
Hi, I bought this one many years ago and now that I have more time on my hands, have started shooting SSAA trainer competitions with it.
The rifle was, according to the unit marking disc, issued...
Hi Lee Enfield, yes the receiver is a solid base affair. I agree, I reckon I got a great deal on this rifle, especially seeing as how great they shoot. I had a small idea that it was probably a good...
Hi Gil, Thank you very much for the information. Yes, the rifle is still chambered in 7.62 NATO and Geoff Ayling is still very much alive. I could not find any reference to an E Ayling though....
Hi Gents, I acquired this one several years ago and have no idea which model it is. It looked good and spoke to me so I parted with $450 AUD for it. I've searched the web and found many variants, of...
Thanks mates for the great answers. Puts my mind at ease. I do have some factory ammo as well, but thought, seeing as I'm going to a service rifle shoot this weekend, it would be in the spirit of...
Hi all, I have a few hundred rounds of this ammo, various headstamps such as SL, LC, DEN, DM etc. Just enquiring whether it is ok to use in a high number Rock Island 1903? It looks to all original...
Gonna need a nap after this effort..
Bear with me as this technology thing is above my retirement pay level..
Plus more pictures. There is no NS mark on the bolt. The single gas port is the same size as the one in the extractor. No Hatcher hole. There is a H stamped under the bayo lug. No cartouches I can...
