    Anyone tried the new Wolf steel-case .303 ?

    It's coming in now at about $.50 a round locally. 174-grain, non-corrosive, non-reloadable. The guys on some of the other rifle boards have had good results, but I'd like to hear the ACTUAL...

    I ended up going with an MG42 AA tripod from whatacountry.com for $296 delivered. Brand new in the factory wrap. The damn thing is beautifully made! Not at all like some wartime contract job. ...

  9. Thread: Did the Isrealis modify the rear sight on 7.62mm 98K conversions?

    OOOO-RAH! Fist pump.

    I just acquired a really (!) nice Mauser rebuilt to 7.62 NATO caliber by the Israelis. 1940 Sauer & Sons receiver. Interesting markings artfully and subtly applied. Nice...
  10. Peruvian 1935 rebarrelled or rechambered? How to tell without slugging the barrel?

    A seller has a nice Peruvian 1935 model FN Mauser converted to .30-06.

    A number of these conversions were done by FN rebarrelling from the original 7.65x53mm caliber. Many others were done by...
  11. What is your experience in adapting other tripods or mounts to work with a Bren?

    I'd like to add a tripod to my Bren gun setup. Bren-specific tripods are pricey and uncommon.

    I already have a tripod for my Browning 1919 that I'd like to use. German Lafette tripods designed...

    .303 ammo. POF. God-only-knows what vintage. $.62/rd before shipping. I'm not interested in buying - I'm not short of ammo and POF is NOT on my recommended list - but I've never before seen the...

    I emailed Robert Segel at SAR who replied:

    "Been out of my hands for well over a year. Not sure of status."
