Update on the Silver War nickels. There were made from 1942 to 1945. Best way to tell them in on the reverse as there is a Large P, D, or S above the dome. Also, in used ones the nickel looks darker....

I'm either going to get lucky and find one or try to take a "Czech ZB 26 & 30 Sustained Fire Set" and have a go at it. Trying to...

I love using one of those as the 3rd leg. Looks so good to me.
