Whew.............................................. . ....................................

This from the guy that buys haunted pistols with demon faces!!!...:mad smile:

Seriously though, good point about the S. Koreans. If it is it will have the cut-out on the receiver, Nick, is there a nick taken out of the top of the receiver?

As far as I can tell nothings been cut out of the reciever. Do you have any example pics so I know what to look for? The reason I felt safe shooting it was the fact that the action is very smooth and it locks tight. It seems like the conversion was high quality but it would be interesting to know who did it. Im fairly certain that the US military didnt do it since those are always marked as 30-06 and I dont think the Koreans did it because there's no sign of it being modified for a stripper clip.

Sorry no pics but I'm sure if you Google it......

I really want to see this rifle now.....and touche', Warpig!

Totally understood that. But he was going on the advice of someone who didn't sound 100% sure himself of what it was chambered in. Not getting on the guy, but it's not a really smart practice to go off discharging firearms that you're not completely sure about. As I understand it, the South Koreans were given Arisakas that were chambered for 30-06, and those reportedly weren't very safe. Correct me if I'm wrong on this. Just be careful out there guys!

Never hear of this !.................

Nick, please read. This is a good informative thread on picture posting.

How do I upload pictures to my posts for storage on milsurps.com?

[Nickking]

Okay I think I figured it out now...

See the exposed locking lug...................Attachment 62053

[WarPig1976]

Is this Nick's rifle?

That's not the lug, It's the guide for the ejector directly behind the left lug.

My post was sarcasm, like in earlier post I never heard of the Arisakas that were given the South Koreans that were chambered for 30-06, and were reportedly very unsafe. The one I just posted does`nt look unsafe to me & it is a South Korean Type 99...........
