I bought a 91 TS, what is the button in the trigger guard for?
Can't afford something like Tulsa, next to impossible with work I can't take any days off when I want. Missed Louisville by one day, by chance I was thru there.

I go to shows 2-3 times a month in the winter, I have not seen a k98 at any of them in over 3 yrs, other than sporter ones. I won't buy a barrel, bolt or action unless I inspect it first. I'll leave...
I have a sporterized non-matching dot 1944, I would like to get it back close to original. I do not need numbers matching, I want it to look like it would have if carried in WWII.

It looks like the part in the lower left in Thunderbox's second picture. The bun I looked at did not have the little lever deal on it. I can see the disc behind the lever in your pic. too bad the one...
I looked at an SMLE that had an odd shaped brass disc in the left front stock.
It appears to me to be angles and yardages for a grenade launcher.
How common is this piece, it's the first I have...
I do not remember that link but it is helpful.
I have saved it plus Emailed it to myself so I can access it anywhere, plus printed to keep in the gun room.
Thanks.
Scratch the 160gr FTX from that list.
That is for my 30-30, I wrote it down under the Garand in error.
I got the 4895 a while back because I knew it was the military duplicate.
I looked at the Hodgdon site but was concerned that there was no indication of a Garand load.
I do not want a modern...

It had black paint on it that I could remove with lacquer thinner.
I still cannot read any more of the marking, but I can see the "O...do" and "1..7"
Is the commercial 7mm Mauser round the same...
I can see sander marks crossways on the reciever where the markings were.
I may try some thin paint in the letters.
I did not look close enough to see if it was paint, considering I paint for a...
Is there any way to enhance (hey, it always works on CSI) the stamping that was partially ground?
I tried baby powder but the marks aren't deep enough for it to stay.
I'll try a bright light a mag...
CAn anyone provide me with info on this gun?

I own my milsurps because I like them, value is not a concern for me.
If more Garands are brought in then more people can enjoy them.
If it brings the price down I do not care about the value of...

I was able to Google and find that Landwirt means farmer but I do not know what the "35" means.
I also used a Swiss search engine posted on the Swissrifle forum to get a map of Biessenhofen.

By the number it was made late in 1944.
The tag under the butt plate reads:
Motrdf. Klingler Jakob
Landwirt 35...
so, if it has them then it could have been made in Canada?
I have no problem with it if it's original, I don't want it of it is bubba'd.
Today I found an Enfield that had long grooves cut in the wood ahead of the rear sight. There were four groves on each side about a foot long. I guess the wood would be called the top handguard?...
