Ok thanks guys. That confirms what I had thought and now that I'm sure of the rifle chambering I'll have to get the old girl out to the range. I'll probably keep it as is for now until I can set a side some cash and find a decent 1917 and then maybe do as you guys suggest, part it out and buy something else. Maybe see if I can't find the parts to piece together a seperate p14 and m1917 out of her.
Then again, it seems I never end up selling my guns so I'll probably keep her in my collection as is and enjoy shooting it![]()
