New Remington Pattern 14 - PICS

[Mk VII]

Out of interest, the manufacturing equipment that went to RIA, are you aware of what become of that in later years? Was it established again for WWII? Much of the equipment would have been fine for building the M1903A3 and other weapons. The specific tools and gauges for the Patt 14 and M1917 wouldn't have been of much use.

The BAR tooling retained from WW1 turned out to to be of very little value when production resumed in WW2 as production engineering (and in particular the introduction of high speed steel) had changed so much in twenty years.
