No1MKIII and Ishy 2A1

I did this photo side by side group way back when the Milsurp After Hours first started to show the differences were more than just the magazine. 2A1 to the bottom in all photos in this section.

Removing the hull of a .22 case.

I had the problem of a Federal 22LR case coming apart after firing. The rim came out but the rest of the shell case didn't. I tried all kinds of ways to push it out but nothing I tried would engage the side of the case well enough to dislodge it. Finally I got the tip end section of an old outers cl...

Say you want to check your Mauser Headspace

What you need is a field gauge and some of these very flat pliers to take the extractor off. If you don't remove the extractor you may get a false reading.

Ye old Enfield granade cup.

I had posted this before here. I got this one for free with my 1MKIII granade launcher rifle from Springfield Sporters in May of 2000. Rifle and grande cup...$75. Now the granade cup is up over $100. Better appreciation than some airline stock I inherited. [pic]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v51/...

Was looking through my photo albums.

I know for sure this one was posted here before the big ezboard meltdown. I got it from the CMP. A Springfield made in October of 1943. This one made a trip to Denmark for a while.

I made the 6th of the 31st the default skin

Decided that the old site colors would be the best default screen. So if you are not logged in you will see this skin.. unless the webmaster or one of the administrators changes it. :lol:
