Cool!

Was kommt als nächstes? Ein M1 Garand?

@the_law mein neid ist dir gewiss - was bezahlt man für sowas und wo kriegt solche schmuckstücke her? gerne auch per PM

man mag es glauben oder nicht, solche teile gibts gelegendlich bei waffengebraucht ,
preislich, na ja, 1903er sind seit je her preislich eher in der oberliga angesiedelt ..., sind halt nit so stark vertreten in unseren breitengraden wie 98iger.

Put a deposit down on an original 1858 Remington .44 this weekend, and picked up this cute thing.





Inletting is excellent, but someone never finished it, and it needs reparkerized. For $80, I said yes.

The REAL "Lee Harveys Carcano".....

Heh, you know Carcano and cute is quite the oxymoron.
Just kidding, you simply can't go wrong with 80 bucks for a working rifle, even if its an Italian one.

Original 1858 Remington .44 Percussion Revolver, with 1840 Heavy Cavalry Saber and 1840 NCO Sword.




NCO sword dated 1863
Saber dated 1864
Revolver dated 1865

All functional.

A friend and I worked on some AKs today. I forgot the trigger guard for the one, so it will follow later. The underfolder has had the barrel pulled and replaced 3 times, and hopefully is properly timed now. Those receivers started as flat stock, and have been fully heat treated.



Hopkins and Allen .32 rimfire, 1880s



Cheap cassette case becomes stealth gun case





In America, this is called a goose gun. It's an anti-aircraft gun for waterfowl.



Previous shot of my revolver collection. Three added since:



My daughter pimping our new shirt




And a Danish crossbow

I love the level of truth on that shirt...

Vintageologist: I've been selling the hell out of it.

Saint Albans (early Archaic) 6900-6500 BC, Probably Hopewell culture (Middle Woodland)


And a friend threw a Krag sporter at me:

very nice Krag!

The number places it in 1898, so it's also exempt from the Gun Control Act ("Firearms" are defined as being made in 1899 or later).
