G'day,
I'm currently looking for a rear sight leaf for my post war MAS 36 rifle, Preferably a D8, D8+4 or D8+8 Marked one. Probably worth noting I'm located in Australia.
Thanks for you time,

Many thanks for your insights guys, I had been leaning towards the stock having been redone at some point but I just don't know enough about the history of these to be sure of it, the LC as a...
Hi,
I've been presented with a rare opportunity to posses a Ross rifle, a MKII if I'm not mistaken, I've not physically seen it and there's some considerable distance between myself and said rifle...
It's a little stiff but doesn't seem overly so, though I am unfamiliar with these riffles, I haven't got around to pulling it apart as of yet, is there a way to loosen the tension on it? Other wise...
G'day, I've recently helped out a 1903A3 that was in need of a home (as one must), however these rifles are not all that common in my part of the world so I've been trying to learn a bit about it as...
Ah I didn't know about the 2 meaning a NSW issued rifle, thanks for that, I remember I got quite the lesson when I took my first Milsurp to the range on just how much you can learn about these old...
G'day Gents,
I've very recently had the opportunity to get a hold of this nice looking Martini Enfield 303, and immediately got a hold of it (would have been rude not to in my opinion). It's been...
Thanks a lot for the info guys, sounds to me like it's well worth waiting until such a time as i can personally inspect them
Hi all,

I've had a proper look today and yes, after removing the button it doubles back through the buckle and seems a good length to fit quite nicely on a Mauser i tested with it. The marking does look like...
G'day all
I recently found the old sling (or part of) for a few dollars in the back of a second-hand shop, not too worried about if it's authentic or not at that price, but would like to put it on...
Got the receiver out of the stock, using the heat gun and a few light taps with the dead blow hammer, quite a bit of clean up required but it looks a lot better than i thought it would. It should...
Many thanks I really appreciate it, I'll follow all that and see how she turns out, and dont worry, I share the opinion that these stocks shouldn't be sanded, every little imperfection is a story
G'day all,
I've only recently gotten into milsurps and so far I've been completely hooked, in 12 months I've gone from one old SMLE rifle to compete in a few friendly service rifle shoots to now...
