    First of the PDF updates/upgrades for those interested

    I have replaced FM 23-5 Basic Field Manual - U.S. Rifle Caliber .30 M1_1951-10-02.pdf in my MediaFire shared eBooks folder and added it to a Dropbox folder I'll also be using. It has been extensively modified with links and bookmarks. An incredible number of typos and bad page references have been killed in the process, with some index references having been up to 100 pages off, though usually only 2 to 3 pages. Others will follow, and TM 9-1276_1947 will be next as it is nearly completed now.


    Enjoy!.... or not.


    Although all of the links are a reddish orange in color some are invisible, but they ARE there in the index. If remaining doodoo is found a PM would be nice.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    TM 9-1276 was added today and is extensively enhanced. New filename is TM 9-1276 - Carbines, Cal. .30, M1, M1A1icon, M2, and M3_1947-01-22.pdf.

    I am currently working on FM 23-6 Basic Field Manual - U.S. Rifle Caliber .30 M1917 Enfield_1942-08-03.pdf and it's about 3/4 complete.

    FM 23-6 Basic Field Manual - U.S. Rifle Caliber .30 M1917 Enfield_1942-08-03.pdf was added to MediaFire and Dropbox. Extensive repairs, image straightening, and bad references removed. And of course, extensive bookmarking and index/chapter links added.


    TM 9-1276 - Carbines, Cal. .30, M1, M1A1icon, M2, and M3_1947-01-22.pdf was replaced. Links were changed to inherit user's page zoom selection.

    TM 9-1275 - Ordnance Maintenance U.S. Rifles, Cal. .30 M1icon, M1C (SNIPER'S), and M1D (SNIPER'S)_1947-06-17.pdf has just been uploaded to Dropbox and MediaFire. Several typos fixed, index pages needed more work than I was expecting and are not recognized text, just images... they are linked however and I may regress Finereader to version 8 and redo them at a later time.

    If anyone wants any particular TM or FM worked over, I'm open to suggestion/requests. I'll start doing another one in a day or two.

    TM 9-1005-206-12 - Operation and Organizational Maintenance Caliber .22 Rifle M13 Remington Rifle M513T Stevens Rifle M416-2T and Winchester Rifle M75AT_1958-07-15.pdf
    Has been uploaded to MediaFire and Dropbox, it's in the Other TM & FM folder on MediaFire & Dropbox.

    Several bad paragraph and page references were fixed in the index, and of course bookmarks and links were added. Enjoy!

    It may be a bit before the next one, I need to get out the tractor and use the box scraper on our 1-1/4 miles or so of "driveway" down from the mountaintop to our neighbor's house while the roadway is still wet from the melted snow.

    Well,... since the shady side of the mountain had too much snow to use the scraper I ended up with a bit of spare time anyway.

    Today I posted upgraded versions of Ruger Security Six Revolver - Exploded View.pdf, U.S. Model 1911A1 Pistol - Exploded View.pdf, and a new one - Remington-Field-Service-Manual-for-Model-510-X-Model-511-X-Model-512-X.pdf - which is likely the best version to be found on the web.

    Enjoy!

    Just uploaded Remington-Field-Service-Manual-for-Model-513T.pdf. If you've downloaded this elsewhere, then you'll absolutely want this repaired and beautified version.

    Wait on this one... the faded text is bugging the expletive deleted out of me, and I'm darkening it now. It will take a while as I haven't found a trick for Corel Paintshop Pro to auto fill all selected text. This manual complements my CMPicon 513T barreled receiver project, so it's somewhat special to me.

    I'll replace the already dramatically improved version ASAP.
