U.S. Rifle Parts -
**NEW ADDITION** 1751 BROWNING PISTOL CASE- LARGE - About 13" x 7.5" probably for one of the target pistols, used excellent with just a bit of soiling/oil on the interior red flannel lining. $45.00 (View Picture) **NEW ADDITION** 1752 REALLY NICE EGYPTIAN HAKIM AIR RIFLE TRAINER MADE IN GERMANY BY ANSCHUTZ - Serial number 1712 (translated from the Egyptian-Arabic markings). These are 5.5mm which is the European designation for the .22 caliber skirted lead air rifle pellet. After the Egyptians bought the machinery from Sweden for making the semi-auto Ljungman rifle, which they converted to 8 x 57mm Mauser called the Hakim, they decided they needed a training rifle. They contracted with famous German arms maker Anschutz to make a single shot, under lever air rifle based on a rifle already in production (mechanically similar to the respected BSA 1947 Airsporter). Anschutz came up with a full length stock and modified the exterior and sights to imitate those on the Hakim and lead weights (internally in the stock) made it as heavy as the Hakim. These are reportedly quite accurate and reliable shooters. About 2,800 made about 1955, and many of those suffered abuse and neglect with rag-tag Egyptian forces in the desert. This one is one of the best condition of these I have seen, with about 99% of the original parkerize finish and a couple of blued parts with only a couple of thin spots on sharp edges or tiny scrapes. The walnut stock is unsanded, and not oil soaked or damaged like most. It does have a dozen or so assorted minor dings and scrapes in the wood, far nicer than the others I have seen. There is a lot of conflicting information (or speculation) on these but the three best sources seem to be the three part Pyramid Air series (links below) for detailed history, mechanics and shooting tips. Previous owner said he shot it a few times and it was very accurate, but I cannot check that. https://www.pyramydair.com/blog/2016/02/hakim-egypts-pellet-rifle-trainer-was-better-than-the-firearm/ https://www.pyramydair.com/blog/2016/02/hakim-egypts-pellet-rifle-trainer-was-better-than-the-firearm-part-2/ https://www.pyramydair.com/blog/2016/04/hakim-egypts-pellet-rifle-trainer-was-better-than-the-firearm-part-3/ NOT A “FIREARM” SO NO FFL NEEDED $595.00 (View Picture) **NEW ADDITION** 1740 SCARCE AND IMPRESSIVE “DOUBLE SIZE M2 CARBINE TRAINER” - “Carbine Training Aid M21, Part Number 7268241. Army Device DVC 9-4” A great centerpiece for a display of M1 Carbines. This is about 72 inches overall length when assembled, so the photos show the various components individually, not assembled. The Navy procured four different double size small arms trainers, for use by all services, circa 1951-1953. These were the M1 Garand Rifle, M2 Carbine, M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle and the Model 1919A4 .30 caliber Browning Machine Gun. Each trainer consisted of a model twice the size of the original weapon, with parts made of wood, aluminum, zinc castings, and steel. Each came with a wooden carrying case which converted to a display stand. The Double Size M2 Carbine trainer was originally delivered with 24 cartridges, two fifteen round magazines, and a manual, packed in a plywood storage chest measuring about 57” x 20” x 5” with total weight about 74 pounds. The late, much missed gentleman Bill Ricca had a lot of info on these on his site, thankfully preserved here: http://www.uscarbinecal30.com/ricca_Double_size_trainers.html This one comes with one original magazine filled with dummy cartridges. Metal parts are fine to excellent and all there. It is missing the handguard (as are most I have seen). The stock is in fine to excellent condition with only a few dings and chips, although there is a small crack from the recoil plate screw as shown in the photos. The stock finish and red paint in the cutout areas were probably touched up in use many decades ago. No case, and I have never seen one with the carrying case/stand. It would be easy to fabricate the plywood case based on the photos at the website above. This is one of the nicest of the Double Size M2 Carbine trainers I have seen. NON-firearm so no FFL required. If requested we will provide note for your wife explaining that this would really be a fantastic decorative addition to your living room over the couch or TV. $1750.00 (View Picture A) (View Picture B) (View Picture C) **NEW ADDITION** 1737 VERY RARE U.S. M14 RIFLE “ANIMATED TRANSPARENCY” TRAINING DEVICE - “Animated Transparency, Gas System, U.S. Rifle, 7.62mm, M14, Device X3F52, U.S. Marine Corps 1962” This uses different color plastic parts to show the operation of the M14 rifle gas system. The tiny parts are held with guides and springs in a complex, layered design so the instructor can move independent parts. These were made for classroom use on top of an “overhead projector,” the only way to do demonstrations like this back before the days of computer generated graphics. The instructor could manipulate the parts showing their function while it was projected on the classroom screen. An exceptionally rare USMC accessory related to the M14 rifle. The device itelse if about 12” x 12” x ¾” thick, contained in a very sturdy foam lined box about 14.75 x 14.75 x 3.5”, along with a heavily laminated instruction sheet on how to use the device. Lee Emerson in his superb “M14 Rifle History and Devlopment” on page 68 writes: “In 1962, American Research and Manufacturing Corporation produced a pair of animated transparencies that demonstrated the gas system, bolt and firing mechanism operation of the M14 rifle. The Federal Stock Numbers for these two devices were 6910-708-2379 for the Gas System transparency and 6910-708-9720 for the Operating Group transparency. These transparencies were used by the U. S. Marine Corps.” Thus, there were only two types of the animated transparencies, one for the “gas system” and the other for the “operating group” and we had BOTH of them, but the "operating group" has been sold.. Complete device in the original storage box in excellent plus condition. The ONLY other example of one of these for the “Gas system” I have been able to discover was in Bill Ricca’s collection. $595.00 (View Picture) 1739 SCARCE AND IMPRESSIVE “DOUBLE SIZE M1 GARAND TRAINER - “Rifle Training Aid M24, Part Number 7268243. Army Device DVC 9-5” A great centerpiece for a display of the “Greatest battle implement ever devised.” This is about 86 inches overall length when assembled, so the photos show the various components individually, not assembled. The Navy procured four different double size small arms trainers, for use by all services, circa 1951-1953. These were the M1 Garand Rifle, M2 Carbine, M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle and the Model 1919A4 .30 caliber Browning Machine Gun. Each trainer consisted of a model twice the size of the original weapon, with parts made of wood, aluminum, zinc castings, and steel. Each came with a wooden carrying case which converted to a display stand. The Double Size M1 Garand trainer was originally delivered with 24 cartridges, two eight round clips, and a manual, packed in a plywood storage chest measuring about 66” x 20” x 6” with total weight about 86 pounds. The late, much missed gentleman Bill Ricca had a lot of info on these on his site, thankfully preserved here: http://www.uscarbinecal30.com/ricca_Double_size_trainers.html This one comes with both handguards and one eight round en bloc clip with eight cartridges. Most of the handful of double size trainers I have see were missing one or both handguards and usually the clip or cartridges as well. Good mechanics, but needing a good cleaning and lubrication to function smoothly. The stock has some damage at the wrist where the laminated pieces were joined and later got loose and glued back together after some chunks chipped off. Several dings and chips on edges, and the rear handguard has a crack. Stock would look a lot better if fixed by someone with woodworking skills. I have seen photos of one with the carrying case/stand, but all the others have been the loose trainer itself. It would be easy to fabricate the plywood case based on the photos at the website above. NON-firearm so no FFL required. If requested we will provide note for your wife explaining that this would really be a fantastic decorative addition to your living room over the couch or TV. $1795.00 (View Picture A) (View Picture B) (View Picture C) (View Picture D) 1284 RARE ORIGINAL CIRCA 1856 NAUTICAL CHART OF PART OF CALIFORNIA COAST- SANTRA BARBARA AREA - This is an ORIGINAL and rare early navigational charts of our newly gained Pacific coast territories. These original ship's charts are from the 1853-1870 period, produced by lithograph engraving (black ink on rag paper) and lost in a government warehouse which handled chart distribution until the 1980s. Still flat, not folded, these really look nice framed. (Never folded, will ship carefully rolled) Charts of the period show the land area and terrain using standard topographic symbols, and soundings of coastal waters. One or more additional sketches show the view(s) of key navigational points to allow proper recognition, and tables list latitude/ longitude of key points and tidal information. These were essential to seafarers. Very historic and decorative items. This is "Preliminary Survey of ANACAPA ISLAND and EAST END OF SANTA CRUZ ISLAND" SCALE 1:30,000 dated 1856. Paper size 33" wide by 12 1/2 " tall, with image about 26" x 9 1/2". Nicely detailed, full of nautical charm- "Smuggler's Cove", boat landings, limits of kelp, etc. Only one view, about 2" x 7", superbly showing end of Anacapa Island with rugged cliffs and "Arch Rock." Excellent dark image and good ghost of the edges of the lithograph block. Excellent condition. Survival rate onthese is extremely low and this is a real treasure for someone living in that area. $95.00 (View Picture) 1727 WW2 U.S. NAVY "DUMMY TRAINING RIFLE/MARK 1- U.S.N.” - Rifles were desperately needed for front line troops during WW2, leading to the purchase of dummy rifles for use in basic training to teach marching and close order drill, etc. This made hundreds of thousands of "real" rifles available for issue to troops in combat units, or advanced training. The Parris-Dunn Corporation of Clarinda, Iowa, produced a full size replica of the Model 1903 Springfield, and the Navy bought 300,000 and the Army got 200,000 more. The Navy rifles were marked on the buttplate “U.S.N./ Dummy Rifle/Mark I” along with the maker’s name. Nearly identical versions were sold as the “Victory Trainer,” and smaller versions were made for commercial sales until a few years ago. The Dummy Rifle Mark I continued in ceremonial use in some naval commands well into the 1970s. This example is totally correct and complete with about 95% original blue finish on the metal parts, but having some light surface rust spots that need a careful cleaning. The wooden stock has a couple of age cracks in the forend and wrist area, and the brown walnut stain and light spray coat of shellac or varnish has faded or worn off. This really needs to have the wood restained and varnished, and the black bolt knob and rear sight base areas touched up with black paint to return it to correct original appearance. Buttplate marked "DUMMY TRAINING RIFLE/ MARK I - U.S.N./ PARRIS-DUNN CORP/ CLARINDA IOWA" has little blue finish. We have had a lot of these over the years, and it is rare to find one that is not missing some of the sling/stacking swivels, or especially the folding rear sight leaf. This will be far above average when restored. A must for any M1903 Springfield or WW2 Navy collector. Not a firearm, no FFL or paperwork needed, and not even banned in Kalifornia, yet. $165.00 (View Picture) 1447 RARE U.S. NAVY WW2 TB-8 FLASHLIGHT (“Map light”) USED ABOARD SUBMARINE - A WW2 Navy Chief Elecrtician brought this home and many years later his heirs sold it, but they forgot the name of the sub he was one (“Name was some sort of fish”- DUH!), and the buyer does not even recall the guy’s name. This was made by Bridgeport Metal Goods, Bridgeport, Conn, and had a black enamel finish over the brass body, long since worn almost completely off. The heavy glass lens as a small crack in it, but these were made to give a soft uniform light pattern, not the focused beam of most flashlights today. Photo shows the one for sale, and also a mint example and original box. Used, good working order with recently changed batteries (2- D cells). This is a rare allmetal variant, not the common plastic types which were adopted early in the war and remain virtually unchanged today. $75.00 (View Picture) 1281 BRITISH RIFLE GRENADE LAUNCHER FOR NO. 4 MARK I LEE ENFIELD - Officially the "Projector (No. 4 Rifle) Mark 5" these were adopted in 1952 along with a Mark 4 version which differed only in the details of the sight divisions. See Skennerton pages 359-362 for details on these. Prior to the adoption of missiles as the primary anti-tank weapon, the rifle grenade was a necessary item in the infantry squad, with some bazookas scattered in larger units. It took a very brave soldier indeed to wait for a tank to get within about 25, 50, 75 or 100 yards (the sight graduations) before firing at it with a rifle grenade. Just collecting different rifle grenade launchers would be a very interesting niche, with a wide variety to seek, some common, orthers very scarce. Some are integral with the rifle, but most are detachable. They date from WW1 to the present, and I can think or at least a dozen made just for U.S. military rifles. Of course, your spouse will understand the necessity for getting a suitable rifle after you acquire a great launcher. (NOTE: this cannot be sold or shipped to places run by idiots like Kalifornia, New York, Massachusetts or any other city or state where prohibited..) Overall used fine with most of the black painted finish. $95.00 (View Picture) 1291 HANDSOME ZINC POWDER FLASK WITH CHARGER TOP - Zinc flasks are often found in lousy condition as the metal is easily crushed and tends to be eaten away by certain chemical reactions. This one is in great shape with nice embosses pattern on both side. Measure has non-adjustable measuring spout with internal spring. No markings noted, probably American made, but perhaps an import. Overall length about 7.5 inches. Date is probably circa 1840-1870 but these remained in use until the end of the percussion era. Based on the size of the powder measure, this is probably for a rifle in the .40-50 caliber range, and would be nice for display with a half stock or full stock rifle of that era. Nice mellow patina to the brass. $65.00 (View Picture) 1042 MUZZLE LOADING SHOTGUN ACCESSORIES - 1- Excellent condition circa 1870-1900 leather shot pouch with brass dispenser (measure) spout. Embossed game scene on both sides. Overall height about 8 inches. 2- Fair condition circa 1840-1860 steel powder flask shaped can. Makers sold these cans for the hunter market as the buyer could hook a shoulder strap into the tabs on the side and carry it into the field. There is a partial paper label on one side, but pretty much illegible. Early type with cork type spout not later screw top. About 7 inches high. No powder or shot included. Both for only $85.00 (View Picture) 1180 HANDSOME CANVAS SWAN DECOY BY JIMMY GARRETT - Jimmy Garrett (1945-2012) lived in Shawboro, NC, between the Currituck and Albermarle Sounds. Garrett was retired Coast Guard cook, and an avid hunter, guide and decoy maker. His large swan decoys have always been preferred for use on the open Currituck Sound, and he marked his work with initials JG in a block style on the bottom. This handsome bird was found in that area about 35 years ago. Construction is typical wood board bottom with a keel piece. Nine wire frames covered by canvas. Graceful carved wooden neck and head is made in two pieces with the joint opening slightly from age. White paint on the body has lots of age cracks that add character. A friendly looking collectible bird that can be used in various decorative arrangements in the house, porch, or gun room. (Size about 25" long by 11" wide by 15' tall. The wood base is 11" x 21"). A slightly larger version (30 inches long) sold for $1,500 in 2021 https://www.lelandlittle.com/items/427251/jimmy-garret-canvas-over-wire-swan/ $225.00 (View Picture) 1285 RARE ORIGINAL CIRCA 1856 NAUTICAL CHART OF PART OF CALIFORNIA COAST- SANTRA BARBARA AREA - This is an ORIGINAL and rare early navigational charts of our newly gained Pacific coast territories. These original ship's charts are from the 1853-1870 period, produced by lithograph engraving (black ink on rag paper) and lost in a government warehouse which handled chart distribution until the 1980s.

Excellent dark image and good ghost of the edges of the lithograph block. Excellent condition. Survival rate onthese is extremely low and this is a real treasure for someone living in that area. $95.00 (View Picture) 1197 WINCHESTER PRE-64 CAN OF "NEW GUN OIL" - Great for display with some wonderful pre-64 guns. Nice clean can, the lead spout has been cut to open but can is nearly full. $15.00 (View Picture) 1132 MAUSER HANDGUARDS- LOT OF TWO - I think these are for the VZ-24, or Argentine M1909, or similar. The part sticking out past the band is slightly longer on one than the other. What you see is what you get. BOTH for $15.00 (View Picture) 1119 ULTRA RARE WW2 GERMAN “LAST DITCH” VK-98 MAUSER RIFLE STOCK (Sometimes called VG-5) - See Darren Weaver’s superb “Desperate Measures” pages 210-223 for pretty much everything that is known about these rifles. (I must modestly note that it includes some information and photos I provided from a VK-98 which I owned about 25 years ago.) The VK-98 was only made by Steyr, with no more than 10,000 made, although the survival rate is quite low as many were lost or destroyed in the closing days of the war, and few were actually issued and the war ended within weeks of when they were delivered. Their crude construction generally made them less desirable as souvenirs. See Weaver’s book for details, and variations, but generally these are marked “bnz 45”on the receiver, and have a crude fixed rear sight dovetailed into the top of the receiver ring, and a crude stamped front sight welded to the barrel. Metal finish is a light gray phosphate. More VK-98s survive in American collections than in Europe as some did make it home as souvenirs. Whoever brought this one home probably took the really ugly stock off and took the action and sporterized it to use as a hunting rifle. Fortunately the stock survived, unmolested. This is the crude “slab side” beech stock with a blind magazine well used on the late production VK-98s. (Earlier versions used a similar stock cut for a standard stamped K98k trigger guard assembly, and prior to that, they used laminated stocks of a simplified and shortened K98k pattern.) This uses a simple sheet metal piece as a trigger guard as shown on pages 217 and 220. This has the maker name “Kasto” in a rectangle lightly stamped on the left side of the butt. Overall excellent plus, basically never used, but there are two small cracks (easily repaired with a few drops of Gorilla Glue). These are shown in the photos, one in the trigger guard magazine area on the bottom, and the other is on the shoulder by the left side of the receiver ring. I doubt if you will ever find another original VK-98 stock on the market, and I stumbled into this one by just dumb luck in a pile of junky stocks, but having previously owned one it was obvious to me what it was, and I happily got it. If you have a VK-98 barreled action, this is your once in a lifetime opportunity to properly restore it. If you would like a “filler” example of the ultra rare VK-98 for your collection it would not be hard to take a late bnz 45 K98k and remove the rear sight assembly, add a dovetailed rear sight and modify a stamped magazine box to make a very close restoration. (Please mark the bottom of the barrel with something to indicate it is a restoration to discourage crooks from passing it off as all original.) Price is for the stock as shown in the photos, not a complete rifle (which would be 2-3 times that!) $1750.00 (View Picture) 1101 CUSTOM RIFLE BOLT- MAKER UNKNOWN- CHEAP! - NOT A REMINGTON 700 but VERY SIMILAR. Deeply fluted stainless, with external extractor (unlike the Remington extractor contained in the bolt face). Bolt just slightly oversize to fit into 700 action and handle design is different. .308 size bolt face. This is a COMPLETE BOLT ASSEMBLY, not just a stripped body. Someone familiar with custom actions will probably recognize the flute pattern on the bolt, extractor, bolt handle shape and the three dimples on the back of the bolt handle and know what brand it is. This was found in a pile of Remington 700 actions we got from an estate. No signs of ever being used. Probably for a receiver misplaced in the estate’s large pile of guns and actions being built up. If you know what it is, you will know that it is a HUGE bargain at only $75.00 (View Picture) 1100 REMINGTON 700 SHORT ACTION BOLTS- LOT OF TWO - One of the most popular and versatile actions made, the Remington 700 short action receivers can be mated with bolts with different size faces to accommodate a variety of calibers, to match the barrel and chambering. These are for the SHORT ACTION receivers. A- NEW factory bolt with small bolt face for .223 caliber (and many others). Black finish, stripped, in the original factory bag. B- Lightly used COMPLETE bolt assembly with .308 size bolt face. Stainless with all parts installed. These came from the estate of a serious bench rest shooter with dozens of 700s in different calibers. BOTH BOLTS FOR BARGAIN PRICE ONLY $250.00 (View Picture) 1046 HIGH STANDARD PISTOL CASE- - Factory plastic case from the Houston era with label as shown in the photo and three pieces of paperwork-NSSF safety brochure, High Standard safety sheet, and owners manual. Used excellent, paper about mint. $25.00 (View Picture) 1045 RUSSIAN IZHEVSK IZH-35M TARGET PISTOL SPARE MAGAZINE, CASE & ACCESSORIES - What you see is what you get. One mint magazine plus accessories that seem to be a combination took, punch, brush, and I think a sight adjustment tool (in the bag) and something that may be a trigger lock, and a brass cleaning rod. Everything in the photo, as new condition. THE LOT for $125.00 (View Picture) 890 U.S. .45-70 TRAPDOOR BAYONET SCABBARD BARGAIN SCRAP - What you see is what you get. These came in with a lot of stuff we got many years ago from a guy who worked at Bannerman’s island in the fading era as the island operations ceased, but before the disastrous fire which destroyed the “Island Arsenal.”
Trapdoor scabbards used a triangular metal body about 18 inches long with a leather “frog” at the top for attachment to the waist belt. The frogs came in various styles over the years, from a simple folded leather for a belt loop then a swivel with a leather belt loop, and later with a swivel having a folded long brass tongue which would slip up behind the Mills woven web belts and slip into a cartridge loop. Alas, exposure to weather and vermin on the island long ago destroyed the leather frogs, leaving what you see here. If you want something mint, read no further, cause it ain’t here. If you like a challenge, or a relic souvenir, or can visualize some artistic project, or need something to throw at your neighbor’s cat, then check out these fantastic, historic bargains! SPECIAL DEAL- TAKE THEM ALL FOR $75.00 and we promise not to tell your spouse. 683 BROOMHANDLE MAUSER WOODEN HOLSTER SHOULDER STOCK (REPRODUCTION) - What you see is what you get. Comes with web carrying strap. Probably will need minor fiddling with the attaching iron to fit properly. These turned a sort of bulky and cool looking (or ugly depending on your point of view) pistol into a reasonably functional pistol-carbine effective at much longer ranges. Sir Winston Churchill carried a Broomhandle Mauser in South Africa, during the Boer war. He wrote “There is nothing as exhilarating as being shot at without effect.” Originals, when found will run several hundred dollars, but this is only $95.00 (View Picture) 343 .30 M1 GARAND BLANK FIRING ATTACHMENTS- Lot of 3 - What you see is what you get. I think they are GI, but not certain. All three clearly M1 Garand BFAs, but all three differ from each other in subtle ways. Your collection is shockingly incomplete if you do not have EVERY variation! Lot of three for only $35.00 (View Picture) 146 RARE “WINGATE’S INDICATOR FOR AIMING DRILL” EARLY U.S. MILITARY GALLERY PRACTICE DEVICE - Patented in 1876, this was a predecessor of the later and somewhat similar concept “Hollifield Dotter,” using the energy of the firing pin striking the back of a rod to propel it forward so a sharp point will mark a paper target with a pin-prick to show if the aim was good, and group size for several shots. (See my 13 page article “U.S. Military Marksmanship Indoor Rifle Practice, 1858-1921: Methods and Equipment” in the August 2018 issue of Arms Heritage Magazine for more on this subject.) These were widely used by the New York National Guard in their 50-70 rolling block rifles, making them a U.S. military gallery practice collector item. Information is scarce, mainly George Wingate’s Manual for Rifle Practice (7th edition). Advertising claimed that these were available from Winchester, but I do not know if it was in the WRA catalog. I had never been able to find one for my collection, but lucked into a couple from the estate of a prominent collector. I will include a 16 page pamphlet with copies of the section of Wingate’s manual his patent for the device, and a replica of the target they used and photos of the details of the Indicator. This provides information and history behind this extremely rare item. This is cleaned, as shown in the photo of a sample. This is the New York state model, with overall length 38 inches for use in a 36 inch barrel. $165.00 Also have one that is 27.5 inches long suitable for a barrel about 25.5” long, perhaps shortened for use with the New York rolling block carbines with 22” barrel, or perhaps for a privately owned rifle. Still a great example of the Wingate Indicator for the general concept, and price reduced to $65.00 on this one. $165.00 (View Picture) 118 SCHATZ ROYAL MARINER SHIP’S CLOCK - This is an older one, made in W. Germany circa 1970s which strikes ship’s bells on the half hour and hour. Or, at least it does when working. It is not working now, but is a very handsome decorative object. Face size about 5 inches and it measures across the back of the case about 7 inches. From the back to the face of the cover is about 3.5 inches. Case and frame are lightly oxidized, but has a mellow antique look, not the highly polished brass of a new one. Most U.S. Navy ships had one of these in the officers' wardroom. Will pack carefully in hopes someone can get it working again. $59.00 (View Picture) **SOLD** SMA2745 Early Gold Label Colt Detective Special Box. - Original Colt box, not a repordicton, has some dings ane wear. Comes with Colt papers. $75.00 (View Picture) 18563 ORIGINAL U.S. MILITARY RIFLE TOOLS CIRCA 1842-1903 - Guaranteed original, not reproductions which are now on the market. These were issued for individual or small group use on certain types of arms, usually described as appendages, accessories or tools. We have several of each, as shown in the photo. All used fine or better, guaranteed original. Quit using Bubba tools and use these instead to avoid damage to your valuable collector pieces.
21251 RARE “WINGATE’S INDICATOR FOR AIMING DRILL” EARLY U.S. MILITARY GALLERY PRACTICE DEVICE - Patented in 1876, this was a predecessor of the later and somewhat similar concept “Hollifield Dotter,” using the energy of the firing pin striking the back of a rod to propel it forward so a sharp point will mark a paper target with a pin-prick to show if the aim was good, and group size for several shots.

These were widely used by the New York National Guard in their 50-70 rolling block rifles, making them a U.S. military gallery practice collector item. Information is scarce, mainly George Wingate’s Manual for Rifle Practice (7th edition). Advertising claimed that these were available from Winchester, but I do not know if it was in the WRA catalog. I had never been able to find one for my collection, but recently obtained several from the estate of a prominent collector, so I have a couple to share with other collectors. I will include a 16 page pamphlet with copies of the section of Wingate’s manual his patent for the device, and a replica of the target they used and photos of the details of the Indicator. This provides information and history behind this extremely rare item. This is cleaned, as shown in the photo of a sample, but all are in similar condition. This is the New York state model, with overall length 38 inches for use in a 36 inch barrel. $165.00 (View Picture) 14166 SMALLBORE TARGET RIFLE THUMBHOLE STOCK - This is a classic 1960s style thumbhole target stock which has been used with several actions. Originally it has a Remington 37, then a Winchester 52B and finally a Winchester 52D. With the miracle of glass bedding, it really is pretty simple to adapt it for different actions, and once they are in place, any internal ugliness is out of sight. Made of American black walnut. John used this on his 52D during four years of college, and really enjoyed it. The bottom of the forend is inletted for a Winchester accessory rail. There is a Freeland adjustable buttplate installed, adjustable for length of pull, and a prone style butt plate with vertical adjustment. Adjustments are made using an Allen wrench, not the fancy thumb screws found on later and more expensive rifles. John added a patchbox (copied from a Model 1855 Springfield) to hold the Allen wrench, and he checkered the grip area. It comes with a somewhat crude hand rest on the side of the grip to ensure the hand is in the same positin relative to the trigger for every shot, but this is not really that useful. It is less bulky, and somewhat lighter than the other stock (Anchutz style), and the forend is more the Winchester “Marksman” beavertail style than the bulky Anschutz. But, it is all personal preferences and you can alter things any way you want. And, if you shoot well enough, people won’t laugh at your eccentric tastes in armaments and accessories. (John also used a palm rest made with a WW2 German “Handgranate 342(d).” If it works, it ain’t a stupid idea, as they say.) A good useable stock with lots of life left in it. Buttplate alone is with the price. $150.00 (View Picture) 14164 SMALLBORE TARGET RIFLE THUMBHOLE STOCK (Anschutz style) - This is copied from the Anschutz stock (probably the 1813 Super Match). Made of straight grained maple with just a bit of tiger stripe in the butt. It was glass bedded for a Winchester Model 52D action, and the bedding can be removed with a Dremel tool and just about any type rifle can be installed with new glass bedding. Winchester accessory rail is installed for use with a hand stop or palm rest. Freeland adjustable length buttplate base is installed, which can use standard or hook buttplates (not included). Trigger guard is adapted from M1 Garand. Not quite as many adjustable features as the current versions used by world class target shooters, but the starting point for someone building up a gun for serious target work at the local or regional level. $150.00 (View Picture) 13998 1957 AMMO CAN FOR .30 MATCH T291 IN 8 ROUND CLIPS FOR GARANDS – THE FIRST LAKE CITY MATCH AMMO! - As the Army returned to National Match rifle completion in the 1950s they initially used selected lots of existing ammo, but in 1956 began experimenting with special match ammo. In February 1957 they approved the designation “Caliber .30 Match &291” for .30 caliber ammunition with a 173 grain boat tail bullet with a nominal velocity of 2.630 fps and mean radius of 3.5 inches at 600 yards. Frankford Arsenal made two lots of T291 in 1957 and Lake City made four lots (LC 12000-12003) with Headstamp MATCH LC 57. The Lake City T291 was used for practice, and the Frankford Arsenal was used for matches. In 1958 Frankford Arsenal made some more T291 and in July the cartridge was standardized as “Caliber .30 Match M72.” Lake City did not make any more match ammo until 1962 when they took over making all match ammo from Frankford Arsenal. (See Hackley Woodin & Scranton “History of Modern U.S. Military Small Arms Ammunition” volume 3 pages 115-117 for info on the T291 and M72 match ammo. This is a rare can, and a great accessory to display with a National match M1 Garand, especially one from 1957 or 1958.

3492 U.S. MODEL 1916 JOINTED CLEANING ROD FOR RIFLES - Brophy 1903 book pages 388-390. Standard rod for field use with the M1903 or M1917 rifles. Aluminum egg shaped handle with brass rod sections. Complete, excellent although in need of a good cleaning. $45.00 (View Picture) 7883 SCARCE WW1 WOOD AMMO BOX FOR U.S. M1915 COLT-VICKERS MACHINE GUN - Commonly called the "Colt-VIckers" box. At 4” x 8” x 15” this is longer than the familiar .30 caliber Browning MG box. The Vickers belts were considerably longer due to their having metal bars riveted to the belt between cartridges, while the Browning belts were all woven with very little space (or “pitch”) between rounds. About 12,000 Vickers guns (a simplified and lighter version of the Maxim gun) were made by Colt during WW1, with about 2,500 altered for aircraft use and about 7,500 making it to France for use, where they were very highly regarded, although the new Browning was even better. The Vickers fed from the gunner's RIGHT whereas the Browning feeds from the gunner's LEFT, so the silhouette of three cartridges on the inside bottom of the box will point in different directions. The inside of this box has some accumulated dried grease or paint caked on the bottom so the markings are not visible. Four screws holding the hinge end of the lid have been replaced with screws just a tad larger than the originals, either during period of use or later. The leather carrying handle is weak from age and has a torn spot blued, hence the reminder label not to lift the box with it. Box has an old coat of Navy gray paint and traces of olive drab underneath. Apparently repainting wood ammo boxes is not frowned on nearly as much as refinishing guns, so you can paint it OD or leave it alone. We have had dozens of the wood Browning ammo boxes but never one for the Vickers. $65.00 (View Picture) 132 U.S. ARMY ORDNANCE PIN PUNCH- .046” (roughly 3/64”) (1903 Front sight pin, etc) - Part or Drawing number 43-P-3552. This is size suitable for use on the tiny pins used in the front sight blade on the M1903, 1903A3 and Krag rifles. Also, the slide cap pin on the Krag and M193 rear sight. It is nearly impossible to find small ones like this from commercial sources and filed down nails and the like are not very satisfactory. We stumbled on a number of these still in the original Ordnance Department cosmoline and wrappings and they really make like easier in the shop. However, tiny punches like this are easy to break, so might as well plan ahead and order some spares. Price for 1 punch- $4.00 (View Picture) 10102 SPRINGFIELD MODEL 1870 U.S. NAVY .50-70 ROLLING BLOCK FOREND - Original, unmolested but showing lots of dings and “character.” Probably not suitable for restoration of a minty gun, but totally adequate for a well used example, or perhaps to put on a well used gun that has a nicer forend you can use on a nicer gun. Condition as shown in the photos. Initials BCS stamped on the bottom just ahead of the receiver, but origin and meaning unknown. $75.00 (View Picture) 10097 MYSTERY LOT OF GUN PARTS - WWhat you see is what you get. Looks like a firing pin for a centerfire revolver, a hand for a single action revolvers, two bolts (cylinder latches) for Colt(?) revolvers, a hammer, some “Q” shaped part, a, trigger for M1918 BAR and a complex machined part with a wire spring. If you can ID any of these, please let us know, even if you don’t need them as a positive ID may help someone else looking for parts but not knowing what they look like. (A helpful visitor wrote: ” hammer and spring look like they came out of a Winchester 1890 or 1906.”) Everything in the photo for onlyy $35.00 (View Picture) 7255 WW2 U.S. MILITARY WATERPROOF PISTOL COVER/BAG (“Invasion cover”) - BuOrd stock number 74C-307 with the nomenclature “Cover, Protective for Pistol or Revolver”, when used by the Navy, but identical item was used by the USAF during WW2 as part of the C-1 vest. These pistol covers were also used by aircrew to protect either the .38 revolver or the .45 auto while in their hip or shoulder holsters and sometimes used by ground forces during amphibious assaults as seen in period photos. This is basically a clear or slightly milky colored vinyl bag to place the pistol in, and the sides would be folded over and the end rolled up and secured with a strap and snap fastener. The vinyl is nice and flexible and the snap in good condition. Markings are basically illegible, but these are new old stock, never issued. There is a great discussion of these on a forum at http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/179617-waterproof-pistol-covers/ well worth reading. Note that there was a later version made as a small green pouch similar to the commonly seen invasion cover for the rifle or carbine which we offer separately. Price for one pistol cover $12.00 (View Picture) 9323 U.S. MILITARY SHOTGUN CLEANING ROD - Post WW2 era, made from a solid dowel about 36" long with slot for patch in one end and drawing number 6301446 stamped/branded on other end. Have several that vary somewhat in diameter and exact markings. Mint unissued. $12.00 (View Picture) 14225 M1903 SPRINGFIELD MILLED TRIGGER GUARD ASSEMBLY - Mint, unissued, still with the original GI wrappings. This includes the guard, floorplate and catch mechanism, but no follower or follower spring. Light to medium gray parkerize finish, slightly different shades as is usual with GI parts. $125.00 (View Picture) SMA2653 M1917 LOWER HANDGUARDS - These are almost impossible to find but we have run into a few. When these are gone there will be no more. Handguard shown in the e) picture is a representative example. Take you pick on Makers, Eddystone $65, Remington $75 Winchester. $95.00 (View Picture) **HOLD** 19374 DEMBART CHECKERING TOOLS- LARGE LOT - This includes a three tool set for 16, 18, 20 and 24 lines per inch, along with two each skip line tools in 10 and 12 lines per inch, and a wide border tool and narrow border tool. Also included are four other tools which I am not sure about the exact designation, making a total of 24 tools. Gently used, and well cared for. Dembart checkering tools are the professional’s choice, and easy to use. When the cutters get dull, you can get replacements from Brownells or Midway. Price new would be over $250.00. Price for the lot $99.00 (View Picture) 19615 M16 RIFLE RECEIVER FORGING - Not a firearm (yet) and not even an 80% finished receiver, but a maybe 10% finished receiver. This is an aluminum forging for a M16 (or AR-15) receiver, the very first step in manufacture, before machine tools start eating away all the excess metal that is not needed for the finished part. An interesting conversation piece. This is from a display John did showing U.S. small arms in many different stages of the production process. $49.00 (View Picture) 20791 SCARCE FN 1949 GRENADE LAUNCHER AND LEATHER CASE- MINT! - Made by Mecar in Belgium, and marked on the side of the sight leaf “PARA EL FN 30.” The .30-06 caliber FN 1949 rifles were made for Belgium (about 88,000) but also for the Belgian Congo, Luxembourg, Indonesia, Colombia and Brazil. Due to the markings I believe that this was made for sale to Colombia or perhaps Brazil, but it should fit on any of the FN 49 rifles. Mint, unissued with original cosmoline in place. $125.00 (View Picture) 14459 M1903 Trigger and sear assembly (early type with pointed tip) - What you see is what you get.

These are precision tools for the professional gunsmith and will give a lifetime of service when properly cared for. If only a few chambers will be cut, a Finish Reamer is all you need. Superb quality reamers made to SAAMI specifications. Brownell prices on these run from $125 to $169, but we have priced these at a huge discount. These are from the estate of a gunsmith, and show little or no sign of ever being used (except for one noted as chipped) (Discount 10% and free shipping on orders for two or more reamers) Clymer throat reamers- (Brownell price $65)
Clymer Chamber Finish Reamers :
(Brownell prices $125-$169 each) 22177 2 Ounce can of Rifle Bore Cleaner to fit in cartridge belt - The small two ounce cans of oil and bore cleaner were made so they could be carried in one pocket of the cartridge belt so troops would have access to critical cleaning supplies in the field. This is the smelly WW2 style bore cleaner intended to cope with the corrosive primers of the era. This is an exceptionally clean can with good markings, but a little rust on the top. Looks like a 1951 or 51 contract date, but otherwise identical to the WW2 issue stuff. ONLY 1 left. $5.00 (View Picture) 23264 Unknown pistol box- wood grain - Probably for one of the lesser known brands of Single Action revolvers. Box size about 5" x 10 1//2" x 1 5/8". Pretty nice shape, whatever it is. $15.00 (View Picture) 18024 Minty Ruger yellow box and sleeve for SP101 type revolver with papers - Circa 1994 (based on instruction pamphlet date). Super condition except for one tiny blemish on the black end of the box. Papers nice and clean, box not scuffed up inside or any oil stains. Great for display with that minty Ruger you have in your collection. $25.00 (View Picture) 16234 GRENADE LAUNCHER FOR FN-49 SEMI-AUTO RIFLES (COLOMBIAN .30-06 VERSION) - This is a spigot type grenade launcher made in Belgium by MECAR (who made launchers for many different rifles, and is still a major munitions maker today). Most of these were used by Belgium on their FN-49 rifles, but are a neat accessory to display with any of the FN-49 rifles. This one is in mint unissued condition, complete with the leather carrying case, although the case shows some storage dirt. $135.00 (View Picture) 15115 LOT OF 3 POWDER HORNS- 1 ANTIQUE 2 RECENT - The antique horn is the “flattened” type and is fitted with a powder measure top for overall length about 10 inches. This has a pair of screw eyes for a cotton carrying cord. There is a band of soft leather wrapped around the front. Overall good condition, showing use and age, and will display nicely with any old muzzle loader. One copper ring that attaches the cord to the screw eye is a replacement. The other two horns (8.5 inches and 12 inches overall) are modern made. The smaller one has a crack on the bottom but still looks okay. The lot of all three for $69.00 (View Picture) 7771 U.S. .30 CALIBER KRAG BULLET MOLD- Five cavity mold for round balls for use in gallery practice firing of the Krag. It was intended that the lead balls would be cast at the unit level and reloaded locally for use on indoor ranges. Brass body with blued steel sprue cutter. Bottom marked FRANKFORD ARSENAL .30 caliber 1901 O.M.L. Some rust on the sprue cutter, but about 75% blue remains. Wooden handles in fine shape. Some bumps and bruises on the brass, but overall fine-excellent. $175.00 (View Picture) 6940 RUGER LETTERS - Professionally made sign letters RUGER in reflective silver color face on 1 inch thick foam type base. Edges are flat black color. Font is appropriate to that used by this maker. These were made for alarge retail gun shop that closed before these were delivered. Their loss is your gain, and cost to have these made would be quite high. Overall about 53" wide by about 8 1/4" tall. These can be mounted with adhesive, or screws to a backboard of some type for use with your display, or to identify an area within your hopefully large gunroom. These are very light, and for temporary display at a show, you could probably get away with doubled over tape. New never used, but may have a few tiny surface scratches but these will not be noticeable from a few feet away. The set of letters- $49.00 (View Picture) 5858 [RIFLE MATCH] CAVALRY SCORE BOOK 1937 - "This book is compiled by The Cavalry Rifle Team for its own use. Changes for windage and elevation are taken from actual firing experience and fire control tables for Cal..30 M-1 ammunition." Black printing on heavy card stock cover. Two binding rings hold book together with about 30-40 pages of different colors for different ranges and courses of fire from 200 to 1000 yards. No entries. Fewer pages than other one Ihave, so assume that used pages were removed. Number 1314400 marked on the cover- which is in a long run of heavy barrel "T" model M1903 Springfields, Nice item to go with a M1903 National match rifle of the mid 1930s, especially a "T" if you have one of those. Overall excellent but rings have surface rust. $49.00 (View Picture)
**NEW ADDITION** 1737 VERY RARE U.S. M14 RIFLE “ANIMATED TRANSPARENCY” TRAINING DEVICE - “Animated Transparency, Gas System, U.S. Rifle, 7.62mm, M14, Device X3F52, U.S. Marine Corps 1962” This uses different color plastic parts to show the operation of the M14 rifle gas system. The tiny parts are held with guides and springs in a complex, layered design so the instructor can move independent parts. These were made for classroom use on top of an “overhead projector,” the only way to do demonstrations like this back before the days of computer generated graphics. The instructor could manipulate the parts showing their function while it was projected on the classroom screen. An exceptionally rare USMC accessory related to the M14 rifle. The device itelse if about 12” x 12” x ¾” thick, contained in a very sturdy foam lined box about 14.75 x 14.75 x 3.5”, along with a heavily laminated instruction sheet on how to use the device. Lee Emerson in his superb “M14 Rifle History and Devlopment” on page 68 writes: “In 1962, American Research and Manufacturing Corporation produced a pair of animated transparencies that demonstrated the gas system, bolt and firing mechanism operation of the M14 rifle. The Federal Stock Numbers for these two devices were 6910-708-2379 for the Gas System transparency and 6910-708-9720 for the Operating Group transparency. These transparencies were used by the U. S. Marine Corps.” Thus, there were only two types of the animated transparencies, one for the “gas system” and the other for the “operating group” and we had BOTH of them, but the "operating group" has been sold.. Complete device in the original storage box in excellent plus condition. The ONLY other example of one of these for the “Gas system” I have been able to discover was in Bill Ricca’s collection. $595.00 (View Picture)
**NEW ADDITION** 1593 TRAPDOOR CARBINE CLEANING ROD SET & RUPTURED CARTRIDGE EXTRACTOR - After General Custer’s unfortunate incident with the Indians, the Ordnance Department added a trap in the butt of the trapdoor carbines for a three piece cleaning rod, and also issued a ruptured cartridge extractor to cope with problems which cost many troopers’ lives at Little Big Horn. Most carbines are missing these, but we found one set we had stashed away years ago. Old, original and hard to find any more $225.00 (View Picture) **NEW ADDITION** 1689 WW2 “CLEANER, RIFLE BORE” - This is the small oval 2 ounce can issued to be carried in a pocket of the cartridge belt. WW2 ammo was mostly corrosive primed and bores needed to be cleaned no later than the end of the day or they would quickly rust and become inaccurate. Therefore bore cleaner and some sort of cleaning gear was issued to all riflemen. Usually this was the “thong and pull through” carried in the “oiler and thong case” in the butt stock trap. Sectional or sometimes full length rigid cleaning rods were also issued to a few troops in a unit, and eventually the M10 combination tool was issued for the M1 Garand providing a great cleaning rod that fit in the butt, broken down into several small lengths. This bore cleaner has a distinctive odor which you will never forget. It was really effective, despite or because of the smell. This 2 ounce can is new old stock, never opened from a 1944 dated box. There may be a few small rust spots on the bare steel edges of the can, but still a nice display item to add to your collection or display. $7.00 (View Picture) 1498 U.S. "OILER & THONG CASE"- WW2 VERSION MADE OF PLASTIC - Cleaning kit that fits in butt of M1903, 1903A3, M1917 and M1 rifles. Used VG-excellent. Comes with thong (pullthrough) which may have either dark or light color cord, depending on maker. Weights may be brass or steel. Two typical examples are shown the type of cord used. The brass or steel weight piece is actually two pieces threaded together to take less space. A length of cord is attached to the hole at each non-threaded end. The bore brush can be attached to the female end and the male end is dropped thru the bore and used to pull the brush thru (like a bore snake). There is a slot in one section for use with a patch. (NOTE- the cords on these are 50+ years old and too weak for actual use.) Price is for ONE oiler and thong case with one thong and cord. $20.00 (View Picture) 1492 U.S. WW1 “OILER & THONG CASE” CLEANING KIT- FITS IN RIFLE BUTT - Of M1903 and M1917 rifles, and then used with the M1 Garand in WW2 until the supply of WW1 units made of nickel plated brass were exhausted and cheap plastic versions were introduced. One end hold lubricating oil with an applicator in the cap The other end holds the thong and bore brush. This comes with original GI thong and pull through which is a two piece weight which unscrews and has one piece with a female thread for attaching a bore cleaning brush, and the other is slotted to hold a piece of cleaning patch. One end weight is dropped through the bore and pulled through (like a bore snake), eliminating the need for every soldier to have a cleaning rod. Remember, with corrosive ammo, prompt cleaning was essential, so the oiler and thong case was a vital accessory and should be in every rifle of the period. Used fine or better- have several and will pick the nicest of the bunch when you order. Thongs are mostly brass but a few are WW2 steel types. One oiler & thong case with thong and brush as shown. $40.00 (View Picture) 1471 U.S. WW1 BRASS PULL THROUGH & THONG CLEANING DEVICE- (Lot of 3) - One of these was carried in the nickeled brass “Oiler and Thong Case” in the butt of M1903 and M1917 rifles in WW1, and into WW2 where they were also issued with the M1 Garands. The brass weight piece is actually two pieces threaded together to take less space. A length of cord is attached to the hole at each non-threaded end. The bore brush can be attached to the female end and the male end is dropped thru the bore and used to pull the brush thru (like a bore snake). There is a slot in one section for use with a patch. (NOTE- the cords on these are 50-100+ years old and too weak for actual use.) Have several and photo is typical condition. Lot of THREE- as shown. A few of the cords may be broken or short.

Condition is new old stock with some storage rust accumulated over the last 140 years, most will clean to excellent, a few to only good, but all are cheap. Ruptured cartridge extractors were the legacy of Gen Custer's unfortunate Indian encounter where some of the copper cases of early .45-55 carbine ammunition ruptured, and troopers tried to dig them out with knives, leaving them victims of the attacking Indians. Although the Army changed to brass cases which were stronger and hardly ever ruptured, the ghosts of the 7th Cavalry forced them to develop and issue these tools long after they had any really useful purpose.

(See my 13 page article “U.S. Military Marksmanship Indoor Rifle Practice, 1858-1921: Methods and Equipment” in the August 2018 issue of Arms Heritage Magazine for more on this subject.) These were widely used by the New York National Guard in their 50-70 rolling block rifles, making them a U.S. military gallery practice collector item. Information is scarce, mainly George Wingate’s Manual for Rifle Practice (7th edition). Advertising claimed that these were available from Winchester, but I do not know if it was in the WRA catalog. I had never been able to find one for my collection, but lucked into a couple from the estate of a prominent collector. I will include a 16 page pamphlet with copies of the section of Wingate’s manual his patent for the device, and a replica of the target they used and photos of the details of the Indicator. This provides information and history behind this extremely rare item. This is cleaned, as shown in the photo of a sample. This is the New York state model, with overall length 38 inches for use in a 36 inch barrel. $165.00
Also have one that is 27.5 inches long suitable for a barrel about 25.5” long, perhaps shortened for use with the New York rolling block carbines with 22” barrel, or perhaps for a privately owned rifle. Still a great example of the Wingate Indicator for the general concept, and price reduced to $65.00 on this one. $165.00 (View Picture)

Made from a wooden dowel with a jag type tip to hold the patch on one end and a wooden ball about 1.5" diameter on the other. Carbine rods have overall length about 29 inches, and the rifle rods are about 38 inches long. (A truly addicted collector will compulsively need one of each....)

The lot for only $45.00 (View Picture) 19032 BRITISH RIFLE GRENADE LAUNCHER FOR NO. 4 MARK I LEE ENFIELD - Officially the "Projector (No. 4 Rifle) Mark 5" these were adopted in 1952 along with a Mark 4 version which differed only in the details of the sight divisions. See Skennerton pages 359-362 for details on these. Prior to the adoption of missiles as the primary anti-tank weapon, the rifle grenade was a necessary item in the infantry squad, with some bazookas scattered in larger units. It took a very brave soldier indeed to wait for a tank to get within about 25, 50, 75 or 100 yards (the sight graduations) before firing at it with a rifle grenade. Just collecting different rifle grenade launchers would be a very interesting niche, with a wide variety to seek, some common, others very scarce. Some are integral with the rifle, but most are detachable. They date from WW1 to the present, and I can think or at least a dozen made just for U.S. military rifles. Of course, your spouse will understand the necessity for getting a suitable rifle after you acquire a great launcher. (NOTE: this cannot be sold or shipped to places run by idiots like Kalifornia, New York, Massachusetts or any other city or state where prohibited..) Overall used excellent with about 95% of the black painted finish. Nicest of the handful we have seen. $75.00 (View Picture) 14158 BRITISH LEE-ENFIELD RIFLE PULL-THROUGH OR CLEANING THONGS - Also used with the Pattern 1914 rifles. These were carried in the butt trap for cleaning in the field. The end with the metal cap would be dropped through the barrel, and then the cord would be used to pull a patch through, or in rare cases, a piece of wire gauze, stuck through one of the loops at the end of the cord. 19374 DEMBART CHECKERING TOOLS- LARGE LOT - This includes a three tool set for 16, 18, 20 and 24 lines per inch, along with two each skip line tools in 10 and 12 lines per inch, and a wide border tool and narrow border tool. Also included are four other tools which I am not sure about the exact designation, making a total of 24 tools. Gently used, and well cared for. Dembart checkering tools are the professional’s choice, and easy to use. When the cutters get dull, you can get replacements from Brownells or Midway. Price new would be over $250.00. Price for the lot $99.00 (View Picture) SMA2592 (J) U.S. "OILER AND THONG CASE" CLEANING KIT WW2 - - version made of plastic, issued when supplies of earlier nickled brass version ran out. Fits in butt of M1903, M1917 and M1 rifles. One end holds oil and cap has dipstick to apply it. Other end holds bristle brush and "thong" made up of two weight sections connected by cord. Essential for care of weapons in the field using corrosive ammunition and when cleaning rods might not be available. Excellent used condition. Includes thong and weight ("pull through") but no brush. $20.00 (View Picture) 21524 M1 GARAND M3A1 COMBINATION TOOL REPLACEMENT WIRE BRUSH - New old stock, fresh from a WW2 vintage cellophane packed wrapper. Invariably, the wire brushes on the M3A1 combination tools are worn out or buggered up. Here is just what you need, and simply drive out the pin that attaches the brush collar to the tool and then put it back in after swapping out the old brush for a new one. Only a few available. Photo shows the original packing and a transcription of what it says since it is almost impossible to read the black on red printing. ONE BRUSH for $12.00 (View Picture) 22748 U.S. MILITARY SHOTGUN CLEANING ROD - Post WW2 ear, made from a solid dowel about 36" long with slot for patch in one end and drawing number 6301446 stamped/branded on other end. Have several that vary somewhat in diameter and exact markings. Mint unissued. $12.00 (View Picture) 16478 U.S. M60 Machine Gun Blank Firing Attachment M13A1 - Used VG Every Vietnam collection needs one of these, I hope. $12.00 (View Picture) 23007 SCARCE SPARE PARTS CONTAINER FOR M1911 SQUAD CLEANING KIT - The squad cleaning kit for the M1911 .45 automatic pistol included a dozen cleaning rods and one of these containers. At various times they were called either a grease container or spare parts container, and used as the name suggests. Also included in the kit was an oil can with a spout, shaped very much like this container. The kits turn up from time to time, usually missing all their contents, so finding one of these loose is pretty hard, and this is the ONLY one we have had for as long as I can remember. Although these look sort of like a shoe polish tin, these are stamped brass, not steel, so don’t fall for fakes. The lower portion of the container shows a number of stress or cracks, but most seem to have those. $45.00 (View Picture) ** SOLD- MISSING** 23006 SCARCE SPARE PARTS CONTAINER FOR M1911 SQUAD CLEANING KIT - The squad cleaning kit for the M1911 .45 automatic pistol included a dozen cleaning rods and one of these containers.

No case or instruction sheet but fine for display. $10.00 (View Picture) 22516x- Lot of Six Half Moon Clips for M1917 .45 ACP revolvers - Used fine to excellent.

These were issued with the M1903 Springfield, M1 Garand and M14 rifles and the M1 Carbine. These attach on the left side of the stock which requires drilling two holes. Please do not mess up a good stock by mounting this on your favorite rifle. Go out and pick up a junky stock with some repairs or something instead for this purpose. The whole sight assembly, just as it left the factory in 1944, never issued. $25.00 (View Picture) 22264 U.S.MODEL 1863 MUSKET NIPPLE WRENCH COMBINATION TOOL - open end nipple wrench and two screwdriver blades. Original Civil War issue, about excellent condition with lots of blue finish, unmarked $45.00 (View Picture) 22259 U.S. .58 CALIBER MUSKET "WORM" FOR CLEANING - These screw on to the threaded end of the ramrod, and were used with a bit of cloth or "tow" for swabbing out the barrel. Used excellent with most of the original blue finish. There were two variations of these, one with a short body, the other with a longer body. This is the SHORT body type. There was a somewhat similar "ball screw" that attached to the ramrod in the same way, but featured w screw (like the pointy end of a wood screw) which could be twisted into the soft lead minie ball so it could be pulled out with the ramrod without firing the gun, or if the powder charge would not fire for some reason. $35.00 (View Picture) 22254 TRAPDOOR SPRINGFIELD MODEL 1879 COMBINATION TOOL - Issued with all the .45-70 trapdoors, initially carried in the bulge at one end of the McKeever cartridge box and later in the butt trap of the M1888 rod bayonet rifles. This tool has a jaw for holding the mainspring in the compressed position when disassembling the lock. The large screwdriver blade is for the buttplate and tang screws, and the smaller blade is for the internal lock screws. The punch is used to punch out the tumbler from teh hammer, or when removing the band springs. Excellent condition with clear U.S./MOD 1879 markings, and about 95% blue covered with grungy old grease from long storage. $15.00 (View Picture) 21081 BAR COMBINATION TOOL 7264450 - Mint unissued- have several, some individually packed in cosmoline, some bulkpacked in VCI wrap. Will honor requests for greasy wrapped one or clean one as supplies permit. These have two screwdriver blades, a wrench for the flash hider, and a spanner for the buffer tube cap. Neat item for any collector of modern U.S. martial arms. $10.00 (View Picture) 17918 M1 CARBINE CLEANING ROD, M8 (RUSTY) - (Ruth, War Baby II p.657) This is a rod made especially for the M1 Carbine. It consists of an aluminum handle permanently attached with a swivel to a rod section, one extension section of rod and a slotted tip. Both steel and brass tips were used, and they are shorter than the tips used with the M10 tool for the M1 Garand. This rod assembly is in good serviceable condition nut poor storage resulted in the steel rod sections getting rusty. They will look a lot better with a careful but time consuming cleaning slows scraping the rust off, or you can use a coarse abrasive and remove the rust and any traces of parkerize finish. Perfect for the Carbine collector who has to have one of everything and is not picky about condition. Great for actual use too, not just parked in a display. $25.00 (View Picture) 17917 M1 CARBINE CLEANING ROD, M8 (RUSTY) - (Ruth, War Baby II p.657) This is a rod made especially for the M1 Carbine.

Leather is fairly flexible, but dry and very dirty with yellowish crud. The grommet for the drain hole at the tip is missing, but not a big deal. Leather does have some cracking along the folded edge and some scuffing and flaking. Unlike most of these, this one has both straps but is missing the attaching snap hooks. Overall about fair to good condition, but will look a lot better after a good cleaning and leather treatment and then be a good representative example to go with any WW1 era cavalry collection. $125.00 (View Picture) 17321 KRAG 3 PIECE CLEANING ROD & OILER SET - Rifles and carbines made after early 1896 had three holes in the butt trap for cleaning rods, and shortly later additional inletting was added for a nickel plated oiler. Even with three sections, the rods were too short to reach all the way through the rifle barrel and apparently troops were expected to pool their sections to make a longer rod or else clean from both ends. Carbines reportedly only had two sections issued, even though the stocks were drilled with the same three holes as on the rifle stocks. Set includes 3 rod sections (one slotted end piece and two extensions) and one oiler. Original US Military issue, used VG-fine condition. $95.00 (View Picture 15014 .30 CARBINE HEADSPACE GAGE- 1.298 REJECT - With U.S. Ordnance Department markings. Used excellent. We found two GI carbine headspace gages, the forst loose ones I have seen in at least 10 years. If you need a gage for actual use, Brownells sells excallent new production gages for much less, but if you are a compuslive collector, here you go! Note that this one was originally intended to end up a longer gage, but was finished as a 1.298" so the mnarkings were altered to reflect that. A real prize for the collector of carbine trivia! $125.00 (View Picture) 13535 LOT OF 3 COMBINATION TOOL HANDLES FOR M10 TOOL FOR THE M1 GARAND - New old stock, some still in the original wrapping. Add four rod sections and a tip to make the complete M10 tool that fits in the butt of the Garand. This little tool handle is an ingenious design that has large and small screwdrivers for buttplate screws and gas cylinder lock screw, with hole in handle so you can insert a rod section for greater leverage. Other end of tool is used to disassemble and reassemble the bolt by easing the bolt forward against the tool inserted in the chamber and then roatating the tool with the rod section (in the center pivot this time) and the bolt comes apart with no sweat and no lost parts. Reassembly is just the reverse. We only have the handles but the rod sections and tips are same as used with the M14 and fairly common. Lots of cheap imitation M1 Garand cleaning rods have been sold with crude commercial handles that lack the bolt disassembly and screwdriver features, so you can upgrade those. Lot of three handles for $29.00 (View Picture) 12867 M1903 SPRINGFIELD COMBINATION TOOL - Officially "Screwdriver, rifle, 5560438" with three screwdriver blades and a pin punch. There are several variations of these for the truly obsessed collector to pursue. These are new in the wrap, made by National Slug Rejector (NSR) and repacked in 1955 at Rock Island Arsenal, which actually just involved taping a new label in place with new stock number information. Mint unissued. $18.00 (View Picture) 10226 CLEANING ROD, M3 FOR M1 GARAND (D35420) - Aluminum handle with one piece rod and a detachable tip section so it can also be used with the brass bore brushes. Exposed portion of the rod is about 15.6" long. Unlike the multi-section rods carried in canvas cases in the field (prior to the adoption of the M10 tool where everyone had their own cleaning rod), the M3 rod was intended for use in camp or at maintenance facilities. Listed in Billy Pyle's excellent "Ordnance Tools, Accessories & Appendages of the M1 Rifle" on page 33. Every Garand collector needs one of these for their collection, or for use, as the length is "just right." Have some with heavy rounded aluminum handles, and others with the thin frame aluminum handles, but of course the enthusiastic collector needs one of each. Mint unissued. $35.00 (View Picture) 680 U.S. M1855 Tumbler punch (Dorsey p. 254 top) - Correct way to separate hammer from tumbler on muskets and trapdoors, and to remove bandsprings. . Used excellent, 95% original blue, with some rusty spots. $30.00 5263 US M1870 TRIALS COMBINATION TOOL - (Dorsey Tools vol 1, p.165) This is the size that measures 2 15/16" and has about 90% of the blue finish remaining, mixed with some scattered rust. Edges rounded, not square cut. The pin punch is slightly bent, and I am afrait to try to striaghten it. These were used in the 1870 trials with the Remington, Sharps, Spencer against the Allin system. I looked for over 20 years before finiding one for my collection. Scarce. $225.00 (View Picture) SMA1195 - Bipod Ramline. Black plastic, excellent condition. $10.00 (View Picture) 3298 U.S. M1916 Barracks Cleaning Rod Used with M1903 and later with M1917 rifles. Aluminum handle is egg or football shaped (with small reinforceding bulge near center) and solide rod, not three sections with screw joints. Rod is copper plated steel, with tip turned down to serve as patch holder. Exposed steel rusted from careless storage, but basically unissued. $20.00 147x US GI WW2 M1 Carbine Cleaning Rod and case "T" handle rod plus one extension section and detachable tip in web case with M1910 belt hook. Rods look mint unissued, case used Fine WW2 makers, some dated, some not dated. $20.00 Reloading Tools & Bullet Molds- Mostly Antique & Vintage WE ALSO HAVE A LARGE LOT OF BULLET MOLDS, DIES AND OTHER RELOADING ITEMS ON OUR AMMUNITION PAGE 685 LYMAN 450 LUBRICATOR-SIZER FOR CAST BULLETS - This is a slightly improved version of the earlier Lyman Model 45. These will size your cast bullets to whatever size die you choose, and force bullet lube into the grease grooves. Dies sold separately, and they are the interchangeable between Lyman and RCBS brands, and are made in many different diameters and top punch configurations to match your bullet. Used, and needs a good cleaning with degreaser to remove old dried grease before using, otherwise appears to be excellent, and these things will last forever. This one has a die or punch in place, but I don’t know what bullet they are for. $55.00 (View Picture) 684 LYMAN 45 LUBRICATOR-SIZER FOR CAST BULLETS - These will size your cast bullets to whatever size die you choose, and force bullet lube into the grease grooves.

Used, and needs a good cleaning with degreaser to remove old dried grease before using, otherwise appears to be excellent, and these things will last forever. This one does NOT have any die or punch in place. $49.00 (View Picture) 10587 WINCHESTER BULLET MOLD (4th MODEL) "GOV .50" CALIBER - Note that this is not marked with the Winchester name, but is identical in construction to the Winchester 4th Model molds, so I am assuming it was made by Winchester, or whoever made the molds for Winchester. Except for perhaps a few Model 1885 single shot rifles, I don’t think Winchester sold any guns chambered in .50 Government (.50-70), but they certainly would have been agreeable to selling reloading tools if they thought they could make money doing it. Condition as shown in the photos, and nice to add to a display of arms in this caliber. My guess is that the date is probably mid 1870s when the fourth model molds were first introduced, as the earlier 3rd models were only marked with the caliber, but not the Winchester name. $149.00 (View Picture) 10584 WINCHESTER BULLET MOLD (4th MODEL) .32 W.C.F. - Condition as shown in the photos, and nice to add to a display of Winchester (or other brand) guns in this caliber. There are five basic models of Winchester bullet molds. The first two were single piece with a sprue cutter attached and incredibly rare. The third is identical to this type, but made of brass and unmarked except for caliber. This is the fourth model, made of iron with bare handles, introduced in the late 1870s. The fifth model is the one most often seen and is about the same as the fourth model except it has wooden handles over the grips to protect the user’s hands from the heat. $75.00 (View Picture) 20093 LEE DOUBLE CAVITY BULLET MOLD .457 DIAMETER -340 GRAIN WEIGHT - New unused condition still in the original box. These are high quality molds and the double cavity design speed up casting considerably. Jacketed bullets are getting expensive and reloading is definitely worth considering if you like the satisfaction of making your own ammunition, or just don’t want the hassle of finding the odd calibers or loads. Consult a reloading guide to see what these are good for, but our guess is that this is a good choice for a light load for the .45-70. $22.00 (View Picture) 14789 WINCHESTER BULLET MOLD .38-255 - The “fifth model” Winchester mold is most familiar to collectors. It is very similar in overall appearance with the earlier fourth model, but has the wooden handles. Anyone who has ever cast their own bullets certainly appreciates the comfort and convenience of having the wooden handles. These were produced in sizes ranging from .22 to .50 caliber. They were all marked as being "Manufactured by the Winchester Rep Arms Co New Haven, Conn U.S.A.". This one is marked “38-255”and is in about average, used condition with some finish and a bit of dinging on the bottom of the mold block. Not sure if the alignment pin is original or a replacement, but I suspect the latter. $89.00 (View Picture) Parts (including stocks)- New, Used **NEW ADDITION** 1763 SCARCE BRITISH LEE ENFIELD ROYAL IRISH CONSTABULARY CARBINE BUTT STOCK - Marking disc in place 3. ’05 over R.I.C. 9947. Lightly struck but pretty legible roundel BIRMINGHAM .1902. with broad arrow and I*. Illegible inspector marks on bottom of the wrist. Butt plate and swivel removed. Left side of wrist has shellac or epoxy filled booger as shown in the photos. Perfect for restoration of one of the 10,000 RIC carbines. Although exactly right for that model, these should be a perfect fit for any of the early Lee Enfields, but there are numerous minor variations in the length of the buttplate tang, presence or absence of marking disc, and presence or absence of butt swivel which is the singe screw type on this one, but some other models started using the butt swivel having a base with two screws. First early butt I have ever found loose. $125.00 (View Picture) **NEW ADDITION** 1755 U.S. M1903 SPRINGFIELD STRAIGHT GRIP STOCK (WITH HARDWARE) - U.S. M1903 SPRINGFIELD STRAIGHT GRIP STOCK (WITH HARDWARE) What you see is what you get. Made circa 1941-42 by Remington for the M1903 (Modified) before they started making M1903A3 rifle. Faint ordnance bomb RLB inspector cartouche, and the stock was later used in an overhaul at Springfield Armory in 1944 where it got a sharp SA over GAW and ordnance wheel cartouche. Overall a pretty nice stock with milled buttplate and band spring and stamped but swivel. Assorted dings from honest use, and Bubba added a couple of scratches on left side of wrist some lightly punched circles to form grapes or something on the bottom of the forend. $165.00 (View Picture) **NEW ADDITION** 1754 U.S. M1903A3 REMINGTON STOCK - What you see is what you get. Good serviceable stock. With good light and a few drinks you can imagine you see RA/wheel/FJA on left side. Legible O.G in box on left side of butt reflecting rework or inspection at Ogden Arsenal post WW2. “SS” on left side of butt near buttplate but meaning unknown. Several of the Remington Hieroglyphics ahead of the trigger guard. Looks like the wood was sanded long ago in some areas, but has some assorted dings here and there. Comes with stamped buttplate and bandspring installed. There is a large chip on the forend tip (covered by the bands) which has been repaired with epoxy. $155.00 (View Picture) **NEW ADDITION** 1753 U.S. M1903A3 REMINGTON STOCK- PIN FASTENED- GREASY - What you see is what you get. Looks okay but has lots of assorted dings and scrapes and gouges as shown in the photos. This is one of the stocks made circa 1943 then they used stock pins instead of stock bolts to reinforce the stock in the action area. Wood is sort of greasy or oil soaked. There are two cracks in the wood at the forward recoil lug and another in the web between the trigger inletting and the magazine box. The cracks could be repaired with epoxy and the exterior cleaned and refinished to be an okay stock, but not a great beauty. $99.00 (View Picture) **NEW ADDITION** 1565 M1903 SPRINGFIELD MILLED TRIGGER GUARD ASSEMBLY - Excellent plus with about 99% medium gray parkerize finish. Guard, floorplate and all the latch parts, works great. Will fit any M1903 or M1903A3, but the latter were made with the cheap stamped trigger guard assembly. What you see is what you get. $95.00 (View Picture) 1732 M1 GARAND RIFLE LOWER HANDGUARDS- LOT OF 2 - What you see is what you get. Lot of two in VG-fine condition, walnut with the metal clips installed. Both have a chip out of the lip that fits into the barrel band, but not visible when installed. BOTH for only $25.00 (View Picture) 1728 WW2 U.S. NAVY "DUMMY TRAINING RIFLE/MARK 1- U.S.N.” PARTS - What you see is what you get- barrel with front sight, upper band, receiver and bolt. Lightly rusted but will clean up so you can finish that restoration project. This is for the rifles made by Parris- Dunn Corporation of Clarinda, Iowa. The lot for only $20.00 (View Picture) 1446 U.S. MODEL 1877 TRAPDOOR CARBINE “KEYHOLE TRAP” BUTTPLATE - Used on a few early guns, while later Model s with traps in the butt used an oval hole for greater access to contents stored in the butt. Mostly brown patina, but some moderate pitting on the heel where it must have rested on a damp surface. A scarce part needed for a correct restoration project. $185.00 (View Picture) 1345 U.S. MODEL 1903A3 STOCK ASSEMBLY FOR M1903A3 MADE BY REMINGTON- ABOUT PERFECT! - Undoubtedly Bubba got his M1903A3 from DCM back in the 1960s for $14.50 and immediately removed the stock and commenced molesting the barreled action to go scare the local deer population. The stock was left in a corner and forgotten. I have never seen a better condition stock, even on M1903A3s covered in cosmoline in the DCM shipping boxes! Superb FJA [wheel] RA cartouche, hieroglyphics ahead of the trigger guard, and circle P. Ogden Arsenal “OG” on left side of butt from when those mint unissued rifles were inspected at Ogden Arsenal to confirm “suitable for sale.” This comes with the original buttplate, butt swivel and band spring still installed in similar mint condition. There are 3 or 4 tiny scrapes on the left side of the forend (see photos) which I will point out although most people might not ever notice them. Just the original oil finish on the wood, and never soaked in cosmoline. If you need a M1903A3 handguard to go with this, I have several new old stock and will pick one with matching wood color for $25 additional (normally $32.00). (Sorry, I do not have any M1903A3 bands.) If you have a really minty M1903A3 with a butchered stock, this I a chance to restore it to original configuration and become a top price collector item. Price for the stock assembly as shown (Handguard extra if needed) $425.00 (View Picture) 1467 M1903/1903A3 SPRINGFIELD SCANT STOCK- (ODDITY) - Unissued, new old stock. This has the hole drilled for the upper band screw, so ready to install on your M1903 or M1903A3 rifle. Tiny chip on the inside of the barrel channel at the left tip of the stock, but this will be covered by the upper band when assembled. This is unusual in there is a wood repair to the left side of the forend from about the lower band to the tip where a defect was patched with a piece of walnut about 11” x 1.5” BEFORE the stock was shaped and finished. Such wood repairs were authorized, but little used during WW2. I had to look really close to spot this- a rare oddity for the obsessive collector worth more, or a defect lowering the price, or no big deal but thanks for pointing it out- you decide. The “scant” or “semi-pistol grip” stocks have the same higher comb and longer length of pull as the Type C full pistol grip stocks and are much preferred by shooters over the straight stock. The funny (and unattractive) shape comes from being made using stock blanks cut for the old straight stock which did not have enough wood for a full pistol grip. Will look nice with a bit of linseed oil. $149.00 (View Picture) 1463 U.S. MODEL 1903 SPRINGFIELD STOCK ASSEMBLY- COMPLETE - Stock was made by Remington in early 1942 for the M1903 (Modified) before they transitioned to making the simplified M1903A3, and has faint RLB and ordnance wheel cartouches and good circle P. Metal parts are mostly Springfield, not Remington and typical of WW2 and post war perid when M1903s were being rebuilt at various ordnance activities. No rework cartouches so this would be good for restoration of a M1903 (Modified), just swapping out the fittings for “R” marked parts. One heavy scratch on the right side of the butt, otherwise about excellent condition. Lightly sanded long ago with old oil finish, ready to install with no need to refinish it. Comes with all the hardware shown, just add your barreled action and trigger guard from Bubba’s bubbafied Bambi blaster and you have a nice collectible M1903 rifle. $295.00 (View Picture) 1153 U.S MODEL 1873 .45-70 CLEANING ROD (First Model- used 1873-1878) - This was similar to the Model 1870 rods using the double shoulders on the groove for the cleaning rod stop, but added the grasping grooves on the small end for better grip. The tip of the rod has the grooved type head with the slot for cleaning material, and the face of the tip is smooth. In 1878 they began to cup the tip to minimize damage to firing pins. This is an original early rod, which was lightly nickel plated at some point but is fine for restoration of an early gun which is not minty and the dulled finish will look okay. Price reflects the nickel, which some say it is easy to strip by electrolysis, but I have never tried it. $75.00 (View Picture) 1140 WW2 JAPANESE TYPE 14 NAMBU FIRING PIN (ORIGINAL) - This is the later type and the most commonly used, so good chance it will fit your pistol or be suitable as the spare firing pin in the holster. Overall lenth is 65mm and the firing pin tip diameter is .0775". Used fine to excellent, lots of finish and serial number 770. $80.00 (View Picture) 1101 CUSTOM RIFLE BOLT- MAKER UNKNOWN- CHEAP! - NOT A REMINGTON 700 but VERY SIMILAR. Deeply fluted stainless, with external extractor (unlike the Remington extractor contained in the bolt face). Bolt just slightly oversize to fit into 700 action and handle design is different. .308 size bolt face. This is a COMPLETE BOLT ASSEMBLY, not just a stripped body. Someone familiar with custom actions will probably recognize the flute pattern on the bolt, extractor, bolt handle shape and the three dimples on the back of the bolt handle and know what brand it is. This was found in a pile of Remington 700 actions we got from an estate. No signs of ever being used. Probably for a receiver misplaced in the estate’s large pile of guns and actions being built up. If you know what it is, you will know that it is a HUGE bargain at only $75.00 (View Picture) 1100 REMINGTON 700 SHORT ACTION BOLTS- LOT OF TWO - One of the most popular and versatile actions made, the Remington 700 short action receivers can be mated with bolts with different size faces to accommodate a variety of calibers, to match the barrel and chambering. These are for the SHORT ACTION receivers. A- NEW factory bolt with small bolt face for .223 caliber (and many others). Black finish, stripped, in the original factory bag. B- Lightly used COMPLETE bolt assembly with .308 size bolt face. Stainless with all parts installed. These came from the estate of a serious bench rest shooter with dozens of 700s in different calibers. BOTH BOLTS FOR BARGAIN PRICE ONLY $250.00 (View Picture) 1108 M1 GARAND RIFLE BUTTSTOCK- BIRCH - A gently used example which someone started to strip and clean. It has picked up some dings and bruises over the last 60 years. Really needs a good cleaning, some steaming to raise the minor dings, light sanding, some walnut stain and linseed oil and will look great. This is not some oil soaked junky take off from foreign abused relics, but a nice U.S. GI stock from the 1950s-60s. No cartouches. $125.00 (View Picture) 1034 RARE M1903 SPRINGFIELD “NRA SPORTER” OR M1922 BUTTPLATE - This is the heavy stamped steel “shotgun style” used with the M1903 NRA Sporter and the NRA sale target versions of the M1922/M1922M2 and M2 .22 caliber rifles. Very hard to find loose. New old stock, Parkerized. $125.00 (View Picture) 683 BROOMHANDLE MAUSER WOODEN HOLSTER SHOULDER STOCK (REPRODUCTION) - What you see is what you get. Comes with web carrying strap. Probably will need minor fiddling with the attaching iron to fit properly. These turned a sort of bulky and cool looking (or ugly depending on your point of view) pistol into a reasonably functional pistol-carbine effective at much longer ranges. Sir Winston Churchill carried a Broomhandle Mauser in South Africa, during the Boer war. He wrote “There is nothing as exhilarating as being shot at without effect.” Originals, when found will run several hundred dollars, but this is only $95.00 (View Picture) 677 U.S. M14 RIFLE WALNUT STOCK - Complete with stock liner, upper sling swivel and stock ferrule. Used G-VG with good DOD Acceptance Stamp cartouche and circle P. Good solid stock, although there are a few boogers and bruises which will mostly clean up and blend in after some steaming, sanding and staining. Use this as a “shooter” stock for your nice Springfield Armory M1A, or other M14 clone without bothering to refinish it, and save your good stock. $35.00 (View Picture) 676 SWEDISH MODEL 1896 MAUSER RIFLE STOCK & HANDGUARD - Stock is walnut and handguard is good color match but appears to be maybe beech or something. Used VG-fine with a few assorted dings, but none of the “minor stock defects” like cracks and ugly repairs which are common on a lot of the rifles sold in recent years. Comes with butt plate, butt swivel, both band springs and forend cap. Some surface rust on buttplate. $149.00 (View Picture) 655 U.S. M1922M1 or M2 .22 TRAINER BUTT PLATE- COARSE CHECKERED - These were made without the trapdoor for use with a oiler and thong case in the butt, otherwise identical to the rare and expensive buttplates used on M1903A1 National Match and USMC sniper rifles. Used, excellent with about 90-95% gray green parkerize finish/ $85.00 (View Picture) 652 MODEL 1917 ENFIELD RIFLE STOCK RESTORATION PARTS (ALSO BRITISH PATTERN 1914) - What you see is what you get. These were salvaged from stocks which had been broken or boogered beyond repair on the lower part. Butt (heh, a little gun humor there…) the forends were serviceable and we cut those off so they can be used to restore “sporterized” rifles. These were cut with enough length so that the splice will be hidden under the lower band. (NOTE- With purchase of one of these forend sections, we can provide upper handguards with a forend section for $10 additional- new old stock, may require minor final fitting. Also have stripped upper bands -no stacking swivel or screws- used good at $20.00.) See photos for details. A, B, C- These came from British P1914 stocks, but other than the lack of E,R or W tip markings are the same as U.S. M1917. B may be M1917 as there is a faint E on the tip. Your choice, order by letter A, B, C- $20.00 each "A" and "B" are SOLD D, E, F- These are from U.S. M1917 stocks, made by Winchester, with W marking on the tip. $25.00 each **D and E are SOLD** $12.00 (View Picture)
**SOLD** SMA2763 M1A ``TACTICOOL`` PICATINNY RAIL ACCESSORIES-TROY INDUSTRIES M14 MODULAR RIFLE CHASSIS SYSTEM BATTLE RAIL`` WITH SIGHTS. - Some guys love them, and the idea of hanging lights, sirens, bells, whistles, laundry, scalps or whatever off the left, right or top Picatinny rails to prove they are best equipped and ready to whip anyone on the field. Of course they really can, because a lot of people just roll around laughing at the entire ``tacticool`` accessory fetish. However, if this is your ``thing`` then we want to help. This came on a beautiful M1A consigned to us, but the owner felt It might be best to offer the gun in ``stock`` configuration, and these big boy toys separately, and the rifle buyer can decide if they want the ``battle rail`` or leave it for some other customer with an eye to futuristic weapon developments who has been lusting after a rig like this for his own M1A rifle. Troy also makes a chassis replacement for the stock on the M1A if you want to go ``full tacticool,`` and those seem to show up on the secondary market.

I know almost nothing about revolvers and what makes them work.
424 COLT REVOLVER PARTS- BOLT OR CYLINDER LATCH - Lot of seven, believe new old stock and probably for M1917 or New Service model. What you see is what you get, I know almost nothing about revolvers and what makes them work. $75.00 (View Picture) 337 RARE M1921 NATIONAL MATCH FRONT SIGHT COVER - (Brophy page 446-448) used on the early National Match rifle. Somewhat similar to the original sight cover for the rod bayonet M1903, slipping fore and aft to install and remove. But, totally different from the standard service rifle sight cover which has to be pulled up and snapped down. It’s always been very hard to find these, and this just came in. $125.00 (View Picture) 259 U.S. MODEL 1873 TRAPDOOR CARBINE TRIGGER GUARD ASSEMBLY - Original correct trigger guard for all the trapdoor carbines made without the sling swivel, not Bubba’s tricky fakery on a rifle guard.

Hard to find these. $135.00 (View Picture) 248 U.S. MODEL 1842 .69 CALIBER MUSKET PARTS - What you see is what you get, nothing minty, but nothing trashy.

104 M1903 RIFLE STOCK FOR REMINGTON MODEL 1903(Modified)- RESTORATION PROJECT - A decent M1903 Modified stock with good FJA and ordnance wheel and RA-P cartouches, circle P and the hieroglyphics. Assorted dings, but nothing major. Bubba chopped off the forend, but we are including a forend piece already cut to length, with a stub left in place to easily graft onto the stock when you carefully cut it at the lower band location and secure it with epoxy. This is for the M1903, not the M1903A3, as it does not have the extra cut for the handguard ring. Good cartouches make this worth the restoration. Comes with correct “R” marked early milled buttplate. Small hole in the forend tip, easily filled when you are stretching the joint. CHEAP at $85.00 (View Picture)

The stock is well used, with numerous dents and dings, it is dark and grease and oil soaked but someone with wood working skills and a little TLC, could bring it back to life. Two sets of 4 digit numbers are stamped on the right side of the butt. There is some chipping behind the receiver tang area, but not cracked.

Faint traces of JSA 1899 cartouche and circle P. Comes with original buttplate.

Retains 98% of the original high polished bright finish with just a couple of spots of staining on the hanner spur. Interior has orginal case colors on the parts. The M1861 Special was a hybrid of the M1861 Springfield but with the lock guts actually Pattern 1853 Enfield style for some obscure reason. Lamson, Goodnough and Yale was formed in 1855 and purchased the bankrupt Robbins & Lawrence operation in Windsor, VT, where they had made arms for Sharps, and also a large British contract for Pattern 1853 .577 Enfield rifle muskets, and the machinery for their manufacture. Their prior experience (and likely tooling on hand) was the driving force behind adoption of the M1861 Special, made only by LG&Y, Amoskeag, and Colt. LG&Y was a steady and reliable maker, shipping 2,000 muskets a month from September 1862 until December 1864 to fill their contract for 50,000 muskets. This lock was probably removed long ago from a mint, unissued musket, back when some collectors sought a lock from each of the many makers of the .58 muskets, and such cannibalism was merely eccentric, not criminal as it would be today. A beautiful example of the superb quality of interchangeable parts made by the cleverYankee mechanics of the industrialized Connecticut River valley. Not cleaned or repolished, but original bright finish. $395.00 (View Picture) 22739 REMINGTON 40-X .22 RIFLE STOCK- MILITARY TRAINER- NEAR MINTY - Excellent condition with just a few light scratches or dings which can be easily cleaned up. Only has the original oil finish used on the military trainers. Near excellent factory rubber buttpad in place, along with the butt swivel and the bedding screws in the forend. $125.00 (View Picture) 22734 M1903/1903A3 STOCK- CUT DOWN- CHEAP AND NICE - What you see is what you get. Excellent condition overall, but cut ahead of the lower band, the typical “sporterizing” conversion done on so many M1903A3 rifles in the 1960s when sold off by the NRA/DCM for $14.50 each. No cartouches. Has the stock pins instead of stock bolts. Can be restored by grafting on a new forend section, or use it for a sporter or stick it in the fireplace, whatever you like. But, before you do that, we would like to get only this much for it. $49.00 (View Picture) 18938 REMINGTON ROLLING BLOCK MODEL 1901 BUTTSTOCK ASSEMBLY - Believe this also fits the similar Model 1897, most often encountered in 7mm Mauser rifles which were used and much abused in South America. This is in outstanding condition compared to most of the rifles, with the wood solid, no cracks or big chunks missing. Complete with original swivel and well used buttplate. Some initials lightly scratched on right side of the butt. $55.00 (View Picture) 21824 U.S. MODEL 1917 ENFIELD UPPER HANDGUARDS- FULL SEALED BOX OF 10- NEW OLD STOCK - These are original U.S. military contract parts delivered at the end of WWI for use as spares. A local surplus dealer bought a huge lot when Ogden Arsenal closed, and eventually burned up most after deteriorating outside for years. I just found a stash I got 30 years ago when they were still in good condition.
Only UPPER handguards are available, no lowers. Price is for 10 handguards, new old stock, most with the original packing still sealed after 100 years. Sold by the box of 10: 21623 RARE COLT M13 AIRCREWMAN USAF REVOLVER GRIPS - Used excellent condition with the original USAF insignia in lieu of the usual rampant Colt medallions. The M13 revolvers were made with aluminum frames and cylinders in an overzealous weight reduction program by the USAF circa 1950-51. Colt only made 1,189 of these, basically a Cobra with aluminum frame and cylinder and the special grips and USAF markings. Smith and Wesson made about 40,000 of the M13 revolvers, based on their J frame model, again with aluminum frame and cylinder. Although both shared the M13 designation and the same materials, everything else was typical Colt or S&W respectively. Intended for use only with downloaded .38 Special M41 Ball Cartridges these worked fine. But if regular full power .38 special ammo was used they turned into hand grenades. The entire inventory was supposed to be destroyed and scrapped and only a few dozen escaped by various official and unofficial routes. While the demilled S&W M13s are seen often, the Colt M13s are not even found as scrap, and few collectors ever get to own a real one, although some have replicas, and some own fakes which they may or may not realize. Here is an excellent pair of original Colt Aircrewman M13 USAF Lightweight revolver grips. What you see is what you get, and you probably have not ever seen a pair of these before. $295.00 (View Picture) 20572 LOT OF TWO CHEAP M1/M2 CARBINE STOCKS - What you see is what you get. Both are good serviceable stock for shooters, but not much for collectors. A- Commercial production M2 walnut stock. Excellent condition, nice looking walnut, but there is a knot defect on the left side of the magazine well- nothing that makes it structurally weak, but it would not be accepted for military contracts. A couple of tiny chips alongside the recoil plate. B- GI M2 stock which had the buttplate screw hole stripped, and repaired with a wooden plug and redrilled. When they trimmed off the plug with a belt sande they took off about 1/8” from the back of the butt, so you need to do a little fitting around the edges for a buttplate to fit properly. Small repaired chip ahead of the recoil plate screw escutcheon. BOTH FOR ONLY $40.00 (View Picture) 14139 MODEL 1891 ARGENTINE 7.65mm MAUSER RIFLE STOCK- SPORTERIZED - What you see is that you get. Fine to excellent stock with buttplate having 80-90% original blue finish. This has been cut, just ahead of the lower band. Good to repair a stock which has broken at the wrist by taking the good forend from that stock and splicing it to this one. Or, use it on a sporterized M1891 Argentine where Bubba horribly hacked up the original stock and this would at least stop your friends from laughing at you. $22.00 (View Picture) 17707 M1903 SPRINGFIELD MILLED TRIGGER GUARD ASSEMBLY- NEAR MINT UNISSUED - - Complete guard assembly with floorplate and catch. No follower or spring. Dark gray parkerized finish. Perfect for restoration of a high condition M1903 Springfield. $125.00 (View Picture) 20848 MISCELLANEOUS RIFLE CLEANING RODS - What you see is what you get. Top to bottom:
14166 SMALLBORE TARGET RIFLE THUMBHOLE STOCK - This is a classic 1960s style thumbhole target stock which has been used with several actions. Originally it has a Remington 37, then a Winchester 52B and finally a Winchester 52D. With the miracle of glass bedding, it really is pretty simple to adapt it for different actions, and once they are in place, any internal ugliness is out of sight. Made of American black walnut. John used this on his 52D during four years of college, and really enjoyed it. The bottom of the forend is inletted for a Winchester accessory rail. There is a Freeland adjustable buttplate installed, adjustable for length of pull, and a prone style butt plate with vertical adjustment. Adjustments are made using an Allen wrench, not the fancy thumb screws found on later and more expensive rifles. John added a patchbox (copied from a Model 1855 Springfield) to hold the Allen wrench, and he checkered the grip area. It comes with a somewhat crude hand rest on the side of the grip to ensure the hand is in the same positin relative to the trigger for every shot, but this is not really that useful. It is less bulky, and somewhat lighter than the other stock (Anchutz style), and the forend is more the Winchester “Marksman” beavertail style than the bulky Anschutz. But, it is all personal preferences and you can alter things any way you want. And, if you shoot well enough, people won’t laugh at your eccentric tastes in armaments and accessories. (John also used a palm rest made with a WW2 German “Handgranate 342(d).” If it works, it ain’t a stupid idea, as they say.) A good useable stock with lots of life left in it. Buttplate alone is with the price. $150.00 (View Picture) 14164 SMALLBORE TARGET RIFLE THUMBHOLE STOCK (Anschutz style) - This is copied from the Anschutz stock (probably the 1813 Super Match). Made of straight grained maple with just a bit of tiger stripe in the butt. It was glass bedded for a Winchester Model 52D action, and the bedding can be removed with a Dremel tool and just about any type rifle can be installed with new glass bedding. Winchester accessory rail is installed for use with a hand stop or palm rest. Freeland adjustable length buttplate base is installed, which can use standard or hook buttplates (not included). Trigger guard is adapted from M1 Garand. Not quite as many adjustable features as the current versions used by world class target shooters, but the starting point for someone building up a gun for serious target work at the local or regional level. $150.00 (View Picture) 19994 U.S. MODEL 1922, M1922M1, M1922M2, M2 .22 RIFLE TRIGGER GUARD & FLOORPLATE - What you see is what you get. Used G-VG with finish wear fromuse in offhand shooting. This needs the floorplate catch, in and spring to be complete, but they are same as for M1903. $85.00 (View Picture) 17143 M1903A3 REMINGTON STAMPED TRIGGER GUARDS- LOT OF 2- 1 EARLY, 1 LATE - What you see is what you get. Both in used VG-fine condition with assorted scrapes and scratches. Early type has smaller symmetrical rounded shape to trigger guard, while later has larger opening with more of a wedge shape. BOTH for only $32.00 (View Picture) 10879 M1903A3 STAMPED TRIGGER GUARD- EARLY - Retains about 95% original parkerize finish, with some loss from rubbing from sling hardware. $22.00 (View Picture 18915 U.S. M1922M2 (M2) .22 CAL SPRINGFIELD BOLT ASSEMBLY - Used, overall excellent with dried cosmoline and a few rust stains. Serial numbers electric penciled on front and rear sections do not match. Front serial number looks like 19994B, so it would have been used on the of the M1922M1 rifles updated to M2 configuration. (The difference is mainly that the M2 magazine seats just a bit higher, so the underside of the bolt head is cut a bit higher too, which allows the cartridges to feed into the chamber nearly straight, instead of at an angle which sometimes caused feeding problems. We have some other M1922, M1922M1 and M2 .22 caliber Springfield parts not listed- ask and we will check to see if we have what you need. $175.00 (View Picture) 21425 M1 GARAND REAR HANDGUARDS- BARGAIN LOT OF SIX! - What you see is what you get. Lot of six serviceable rear handguards for the M1 Garand. No cracks, the handguard clip is installed. The four on the left show only normal minor ding and scuffs and wear. The one on the far right has three major dings, and the one next to it has one, as shown in the large photo which can be filled and will look a lot better. The whole lot of SIX for only $95.00 (View Picture) 23246 BRITISH MARTINI-ENFIELD MARK IV RIFLE CLEANING ROD - Used excellent. These look very similar to the U.S. trapdoor cleaning rods, but the groove for the Martini rod is about 3.75” from the tip, while the trapdoor is about 4.5” from the tip. The Martini-Enfield rod is about 32.75” long and the trapdoor rod is about 35.5” long. Used fine to excellent with good British inspector markings as shown in the photo. Correct for the Mark IV .577-450 Martini rifles, many of which are missing the cleaning rod. $49.00 (View Picture) 3487 U.S. MODEL 1836 OR 1842 .54 CAL. PISTOL SWIVEL RAMROD ASSEMBLY - A good reproduction to replace the ramrod assembly often missing from Model 1836 or 1842 pistols. Comes with the mounting screw that goes through the stud on the bottom of the barrel. These can be aged by sing a solvent to remove all traces of oil, and then putting in a warm, damp place with a little salt and water mixture sprayed on periodically. Every once in a while (several days apart?) wipe off the rust with a clean oil-free rag and spray and let it age some more. Sticking in garden mulch or where downspouts drain will work. When you need one of these, you really need it as the pistols look horrible without the rammer assembly. $25.00 (View Picture) 22553 U.S. MODEL 1855 RIFLE or RIFLE MUSKET BUTTPLATE AND PATCHBOX WITH SCREWS - Original, G-VG condition but needing a good cleaning. The buttplate was made with the notch for the patchbox tab, not a standard plate altered by Buba. There is staining and some light rust or salt and pepper pitting, with a crusted area of heavier rust near the toe of the buttplate. Scarce part to find loose. I got this for a restoration project many decades ago and the project is long gone, so time to make this available to someone else to finish their project. What you see is what you get. $125.00 (View Picture) 19393 WINCHESTER MODEL 70 (Post 64) STOCK LONG ACTION FEATHERWEIGHT(?) - I am not a Winchester expert, so check carefully to see if this is what you need as I may be off in some details. This has a red Winchester recoil pad and is for the long action (7 5/8” hole spacing for the action screws). The exterior is about perfect except for three miniscule dings, each about the size of a pencil dot and just barely breaking the finish. Great quality and very attractive factory ribbon type checkering pattern, although I cannot figure out of this is some sort of Super Grade or XTR or something or if all the Featherweights were done this nicely. Not sure what caliber rifle was in it, but it had been glass bedded, a pretty nice job on the receiver ring, barrel shank, tang and action just behind the magazine inletting on the upper side and none on the bottom of the stock. It would be easy to Dremel out the actual bearing surfaces and put a new top coat of glass betting to fit your action exactly. $95.00 (View Picture) 18890 MAUSER RIFLE STOCK- CHEAP! - What you see is what you get. Mauser rifle stock, but not sure exactly what model or nationality it might be. Looks likes a typical Model 1898 action and length is about right for rifle with barrel about 22 inches long, not 24 inch K98k length. This was made for a straight bolt (no clearance cut in the side of the stock). It does not have a marking disc or disassembly hole. There are no sling swivels on the bottom of the rifle, only on the left side. Sling bar is on left side of the butt with a recess underneath it. Upper swivel is on the barrel band with rounded contour. Bands are retained by single spring. Bayonet lug is for typical Mauser bar mounted type bayonet. A couple of small illegible circular marks were all I could find. Overall condition is solid but dirty. One thing is for certain, this is CHEAP! I am sure some Mauser guy can use it, or it may be a great rarity needed for restoration of a valuable gun, or a bit of firewood for the winter. $55.00 (View Picture) 4056 MODEL 1941 JOHNSON RIFLE FOREND - ORIGINAL! Johnson parts are scarcer than honest politicians, and this is the first Johnson forend we have ever found loose. What you see is what you get. No metal parts included, just the stripped wood forend. No cracks, repairs or major dings. The front edge does have a slightly flattened spot, probably from a ding being cleaned up long ago. Even repro stocks have dried up. $149.00 (View Picture) 17207 REMINGTON MODEL 725 (OR 722) SHORT ACTION STOCK- NEW! - This is a factory replacement stock, mint unissued, with buttplate installed, 100% inletted and drilled for the butt swivel. Nice figure walnut, nicely checkered. New old stock, still in a Bishop box, but this is what Remington was using then. The Model 725 was made 1957-1962. The Model 721 and 722 were introduced in 1948 using new designs and production methods to produce a very fine quality bolt action rifle at a much lower cost than the pre-war Model 30 which was a descendant from the Model 1917 military rifles. The 721 was a “long action” offered in calibers ranging from .264 Win Mag, .30-06 to the .300 H&H Mag; while the Model 722 was a “short action” offered in calibers ranging from .222 Remington to .308 Winchester. The Model 725 was a deluxe version with a larger, Model-30 style safety and Monte Carlo stock. All rifles were available in various grades and calibers, with long or short action depending on caliber. Only about 17,000 Model 725 rifles were made, compared to about 117,000 of the 721 and 722. The 721, 722 and 725 were all replaced in 1962 by the highly successful Model 700. This should be a drop in fit for the 725 or 722, so if you need a stock to replace a damaged one or one that Bubba screwed up with a recoil pad, this is what you have been waiting for. $95.00 (View Picture) 10102 SPRINGFIELD MODEL 1870 U.S. NAVY .50-70 ROLLING BLOCK FOREND - Original, unmolested but showing lots of dings and “character.” Probably not suitable for restoration of a minty gun, but totally adequate for a well used example, or perhaps to put on a well used gun that has a nicer forend you can use on a nicer gun. Condition as shown in the photos. Initials BCS stamped on the bottom just ahead of the receiver, but origin and meaning unknown. $75.00 (View Picture) 10097 MYSTERY LOT OF GUN PARTS - What you see is what you get. Looks like a firing pin for a centerfire revolver, a hand for a single action revolvers, two bolts (cylinder latches) for Colt(?) revolvers, a hammer, some “Q” shaped part, a, trigger for M1918 BAR and a complex machined part with a wire spring. If you can ID any of these, please let us know, even if you don’t need them as a positive ID may help someone else looking for parts but not knowing what they look like. (A helpful visitor wrote: ” hammer and spring look like they came out of a Winchester 1890 or 1906.”) Everything in the photo for only $35.00 (View Picture) 9323 U.S. MILITARY SHOTGUN CLEANING ROD - Post WW2 era, made from a solid dowel about 36" long with slot for patch in one end and drawing number 6301446 stamped/branded on other end.

B- clip removed, someone cleaned this one but there is a large ding on the right side- fill with some epoxy and walnut sawdust and will be nice. C- clip still there, small crack on left side from clip to rear which should stabilize fine with a bit of epoxy, then refinish and will be nice.

Toe area is worn a bit on one, but otherwise okay for use, but not top quality collector wood. One has a circle P on the grip, but no other cartouches visible. Good for building up into a shooter, or living history gun, or something you can use to keep the good stock from an otherwise lackluster rifle. Stripped, no hardware. BOTH FOR ONLY $85.00 (View Picture) 19963 M1 GARAND BUTTSTOCK- GRADE 3 - What you see is what you get. One birch stock with an epoxy repair near the toe.

No cartouches or metal Cheap at only $20.00 (View Picture) 19715 M1 GARAND- WALNUT BUTTSTOCK- PETTY NICE - Overall near excellent except for a large chip on the left side of the comb, two smaller dings on the left side of the pistol grip and one on the right side just above the trigger area. Mellow dark finish, but not oil soaked. Light AAK overhaul cartouche but no others. Rack number 393 stamped behind receiver heel area. Not sanded away at the toe of the butt like so many. A good candidate for a minor repair for use on a shooter or living history or even an average collector rifle. $95.00 (View Picture) 7878 M1 GARAND STOCK SET (Buttstock and front and rear handguards)- CHEAP - What you see is what you get. These have a sloppy coat of reddish varnish type finish on them. Pretty sure the butt is Korean made from mahogany type wood, while the handguards are U.S. made, probably walnut. Small crack to the rear of the clip on the rear handguard, otherwise everything is sound. With some stripping and refinishing these would be good to put on a shooter or living history rifle so you can save a good stock set. CHEAP- $95.00 (View Picture) SMA2653 M1917 LOWER HANDGUARDS - These are almost impossible to find but we have run into a few. When these are gone there will be no more. Handguard shown in the picture is a representative example. Take you pick on Makers, Eddystone $65, Remington $75 Winchester. $95.00 (View Picture) 23321 ARGENTINE MODEL 1879 REMINGTON ROLLING BLOCK FOREND - What you see is what you get. Forend for M1879 Argenting Remington rolling block rifle, with forend tip in place. Like a lot of rolling blocks, this has a small wedge of wood broken off the rear corners, but easily repaired with a bit of scrap walnut and some expoxy. Used VG-fine or better, except as noted. Perfect for that restoration project! $95.00 (View Picture) 22197 MODEL 1903A3 HANDGUARD- MINT UNISSUED - Have several, so photo shows a representative example. All new from original GO wrappings, some with the cosmoline wrapping around the handguard clips, others packed dry like this. Some blue handguard clips, others are parkerized like this one. Getting hard to find, might be a good idea to stash a couple away for use in the future. Will try to fill requests for blue/park clips, or dry or wrapped if available. These also are used on the M1903A4 sniper rifles, but will NOT fit the M1903 rifles with the rear sight on the barrel. Price for one mint unissued original M1903A3handguard $32.00 (View Picture) 21527 M1903 SPRINGFIELD MILLED TRIGGER GUARD ASSEMBLY- MINT UNISSUED - Complete guard assembly with floorplate and catch. No follower or spring. Gray parkerized finish with floorplate a slightly darker shade. $135.00 (View Picture) 17191 MILITARY STOCK FOR 98 MAUSER- MINTY! - I am not sure exactly which model this is for, but think it might be for one of the Yugos, but perhaps another country. In any case, it is nearly mint unissued, and complete with all hardware, except bands and handguard. Some Mauser guru can probably ID it easily- it is for one with a straight bolt (no recess for turned down bolt handle clearance), no grooves in the forend, no marking disc or sling provisions on the side of the stock. Sling swivel on the butt is a bit closer to the pistol grip than some. There is a clear cartouche just behind the trigger guard (shown in the photos, which I do not recognize), and there is a faint 4 digit serial number on the right side just above the stock bolt). Buttplate is flat type, slightly curled over at the heel, finished bright. No inspector marks noted. It is in near mint unissued condition, likely a take off from a rifle sacrificed by the custom rifle makers. N But, the good news, if that if you have a rifle of this model that Bubba butchered the stock on, you can now restore it! $195.00 (View Picture) 16615 M1903 or M1903A3 Dummy Drill Rifle Stock - Type used by US Navy on Mk 5 Dummy Drill rifles. Made of very tough rubbery material, reddish-brown color, that is nearly indestructible. Mint unissued, never installed on a rifle. Handguard available separately. Perfect for correct restoration of one of the CMP drill rifles that has a horribly boogered wood stock. $89.00 (View Picture) 12768 REMINGTON LEE .45-70 MAGAZINE FOR M1882 AND M1885 RIFLES - Sometimes called the Lee-Diss magazine, this was used in the Army, Navy and civilian Model 1882 or 1885 Remington Lee rifles in .45-70 caliber. The ones in .43 Spanish used a slightly longer magazine, but this might fit in as a filler until you find the right one. Condition as shown in the photo- fine mechanically, no patent date markings, with about 60-70% thinning original blue finish. $125.00 (View Picture) 12288 REMINGTON ROLLING BLOCK RIFLE FORENDS (No. 5 model in 7mm or similar calibers) - Overall length including the bayonet lug is 25 inches. I think thes are for what is often called the Model 1897 or 1901 smokeless powder small bore 7mm-8mm rifles. Remember, we offer full refund (less shipping) if you want to return anything for any reason. Complete with band springs and forend cap. We have three, and in every photo, A is the one at the top, B in the middle and C on the bottom. What you see is what you get. A is pretty good, B has some minor chipping and C has one of the corners at the back broken and has been chemically stripped. Price for A is $75.00 Price for B is $75.00 Price for C is $65.00 Or take all three for $185.00 (View Picture) 21104 LOT OF THREE M98 STYLE RIFLE STOCKS- CHEAP! - What you see is what you get. Three 98 Mauser rifle stocks. I think one is from a Yugoslavian rifle, one is from a Czech VZ-24 and I am uncertain about the other one. Hardware ranged from pretty well stripped, to nearly complete- see the photos for details. Condition ranges from good to excellent. Unfortunately, I do not know enough about the fine details of the Mauser world to be more specific about these, but I do know that it is a screaming good deal to get all three of these for only $135.00 (View Picture) 11680 KRAG RIFLE REAR SIGHT- MODEL 1902 - The final type of sight used on Krags, with windage adjustment and the flip up “Sergeant’s peep sight” feature. Used fine to excellent, comes complete with the rear mounting screw, but no front screw. $95.00 (View Picture) 7359 U.S. MODEL 1841 "MISSISSIPPI" RIFLE BRASS PATCH BOX- EXCELLENT - A really nice example ready to replace a boogered box on a high condition rifle. No screws. $85.00 (View Picture) 21788 MOSSBERG 44 .22 TRAINING RIFLE RIFLE STOCK ASSEMBLY - A “take off” during the silly “demilitarization” of .22 training rifles but available to help with restoration of a rifle that had its stock boogered by a previous owner, or perhaps cut down when used by a ROTC shooting team in the past. Condition is as shown in the photo. This is a very nice stock but dirty and faded. The fragile plastic trigger guard is intact and both the red and green safety buttons are in place, and it comes complete with installed buttplate and floorplate. The metal plate for the forend is there, but rusty and one of the screws is missing. $75.00 (View Picture) 22878 WINCHESTER MODEL 12 SHOTGUN WOOD FOREND GRIP- MINT! - Perfect for fixing that broken Model 12.

Used fine to excellent, 37 inches long. $65.00 (View Picture) 22535 SWISS SCHMIDT-RUBIN M1911 RIFLE HANDGUARD - What you see is what you get. One used good condition handguard for the Swiss Schmidt Rubin Model 1911 rifle. Sort of ugly with the wood all dry and a piece of tape around it to hold an old label, but should clean up just fine with the tape off and a quick coat of linseed oil. No cracks or breaks. $25.00 (View Picture) 21792 REMINGTON 40X MILITARY TARGET RIFLE STOCK - What you see is what you get. Used good+ condition. Overall a good solid stock but with some minor problems that are easily fixed, or use this one if you need a stock to cut down for a youthful shooter instead of boogering your nice stock. I think this is inlet for the standard (not heavy) weight barrel. Bedding blocks in place in the forend but no recoil pad or other metal parts. This has four holes (about 1/16” diameter drilled on the left side of the forend for some unknown purpose. There is a chip at the heel of the butt, an easy glue or epoxy repair. There are a couple of scrapes on the left side of the grip. Overall dirty and would look really nice after some quick repairs and sanding and new finish. $45.00 (View Picture) 21791 REMINGTON 513T STOCK FROM MILITARY .22 TRAINING RIFLES (Grade 1) - Our wise leaders for a while mandated that most military .22 caliber training rifles be destroyed, to “make it safe for The Children” or some such nonsense. Usually this was accomplished by removing the stock assembly and then destroying the barreled action using a torch or giant shredding machine. The stocks were later sold off as surplus. The happy result of this horror story is that we now have some stocks available to properly restore all those Remington Model 513T rifles which had their stocks cut down for youthful shooters in the past. This is what we call “Grade 1” which is very nice quality and suitable for restoration of a collector grade rifle. Some very minor handling and storage dings, but nothing bad. Some ugly tape residue which will clean off after soaking with some WD-40. Has Letterkenny Army Depot rework marks LEAD on the butt. Comes with buttplate and trigger guard assembly as shown in the photos, missing the small wood screw for the trigger guard. A nice stock. $75.00 (View Picture) 21790 REMINGTON 513T STOCK FROM MILITARY .22 TRAINING RIFLES (Grade 2) - Our wise leaders for a while mandated that most military .22 caliber training rifles be destroyed, to “make it safe for The Children” or some such nonsense.

The happy result of this horror story is that we now have some stocks available to properly restore all those Remington Model 513T rifles which had their stocks cut down for youthful shooters in the past. This is what we call “Grade 2” with some dings in the grip area, chipping by the guard screw holes and the escutcheon, but otherwise a solid stock. Easily repaired for use in restoring a rifle, or if you have a nice stock, save it and put this one on for shooting, or cut it down for use teaching a youngster to shoot with a gun that fits them better than the full length adult size stock. Comes with buttplate assembly as shown in the photos. $45.00 (View Picture) 21789 REMINGTON 513T STOCK FROM MILITARY .22 TRAINING RIFLES (Grade 3) - Our wise leaders for a while mandated that most military .22 caliber training rifles be destroyed, to “make it safe for The Children” or some such nonsense.

The happy result of this horror story is that we now have some stocks available to properly restore all those Remington Model 513T rifles which had their stocks cut down for youthful shooters in the past. Condition is about as shown in the photos. We have several of these, all in similar condition with assorted mostly minor storage and handling dings and scrapes. Some have arsenal overhaul marks stamped in the wood (such as LEAD, RIA, etc). Most have buttplates, and some have the trigger guards and the forend rail for the hand stop, and the metal parts may be blued or parkerized and may or may not have some light surface rust, but all should clean up okay. Photos show a typical example, but not necessarily the one you will receive. $35.00 (View Picture) 21659 .50 BMG BARREL CARRYING HANDLE - What you see is what you get.

So if you`ve had a barreled action sitting in a closet now you can complete your rifle. 20263 M1903 finger groove stock- cut but restorable - This is a decent M1903 finger groove stock that has been cut ahead of the lower band, and can be restored by splicing on a new forend. Tiny chip on right side at the toe. There is either a scratch or a tiny crack extending back from the receiver tang on the top of the wrist but I am not sure which, but wanted to point I out anyway. This is NOT cut for the 03A3 handguard ring, but is for the M1903 rifle. Traces of a P but no cartouche visible. $85.00 (View Picture) 20261 M1903A3 rifle stock - Used VG condition, with good Ogden Arsenal OG rework cartouche. Would grade as excellent except for there being two age cracks along the grain, one above the and spring and the other above the front stock bolt on the right side. These could be undercut from the back and repaired with epoxy and be almost invisible. Made for the M1903A3 but will also work on any of the M1903 rifles as well.

These were the classic early recoil pad for fine rifles, bearing patent dates of 1917 and 1931. The rubber is a bit stiff from age, but still has some “give” to it, but the bottom layer is separating from the rest of the layers and needs to be reattached (I think epoxy would work just fine).

The M13 revolvers were made with aluminum frames and cylinders in an overzealous weight reduction program by the USAF circa 1950-51. Colt only made 1,189 of these, basically a Cobra with aluminum frame and cylinder and the special grips and USAF markings. Smith and Wesson made about 40,000 of the M13 revolvers, based on their J frame model, again with aluminum frame and cylinder. Although both shared the M13 designation and the same materials, everything else was typical Colt or S&W respectively. Intended for use only with downloaded .38 Special M41 Ball Cartridges these worked fine. But if regular full power .38 special ammo was used they turned into hand grenades. The entire inventory was supposed to be destroyed and scrapped and only a few dozen escaped by various official and unofficial routes. While the demilled S&W M13s are seen often, the Colt M13s are not even found as scrap, and few collectors ever get to own a real one, although some have replicas, and some own fakes which they may or may not realize.
Here is an excellent pair of original Colt Aircrewman M13 USAF Lightweight revolver grips.

Mount and case are both numbered 9696. Both upper scope pieces are lightly electric penciled “96.” The Zf 40 Carrying Case (“Behaelter”) was made by jvb (Wessel & Mueller,in Luckenwalde. It is the early type with a metal tube in the case to hold a cleaning brush, with webbing instead of leather straps, so it is not the earliest type, but earlier than many. The hinged compartment contains the original Klarinol cleaning cloth. These were used with the Kar98k having the mounting rail on the left side of the rear sight base. There are a lot of fake rifles and bases out there, but if you have an original rifle, you really need this original scope, mount and carrying case to complete your WW2 German sniper rifle outfit. $1750.00 (View Picture) SMA2757 Buttplate WWII K98k Sniper - This came from an estate, we are not sure if it is real or a reproduction so we priced at a reproduction price. $50.00 (View Picture) SMA2759 Safety K98k Sniper Extended Safety Flag for WWII German K98 Mauser 98k - This came from an estate, we are not sure if it is real or a reproduction so we priced at a reproduction price. $50.00 (View Picture) 12128 E83.

This is the least good of the four we found, with faint markings on the cap. The hinge and snaps are very rusty, and the rubber pad in the cover is dried and cracked and dirty. Two of the strap guides are damaged or broken. This is for the case shown in the photos (Sorry, no scopes available.) $125.00 (View Picture) E83. USMC-SNIPER Scope instructions: 6527 GRIFFIN & HOWE BASE - Should fit both the military and commercial G&H mounts. Has typical holes for attachment with three screws and two taper pins. Receiver side is flat but prior owner has filed a rounded groove to better fit on a round receiver. Stake marks on outside by screw holes. Great for someone who wants one to use, but maybe not ideal for a super high end restoration project. $75.00 (View Picture)
1594 CHEAP- LOT OF FIVE CUT OFF TRAPDOOR RIFLE BARREL PIECES - Bores are okay to trash. Top is .50-70 with one piece front sight. Others are .45-70 with base for pinned blade, but blades have been removed. About 8 to 10 inches long. The front sight bases are handy to have for repair projects. Or make toy guns out of them, or ????. LOT Of five for only $15.00 (View Picture) 1158 BARREL FOR U.S. MODEL 1896 (or M1898) .30-40 KRAG CARBINE - What you see is what you get. Original carbine barrel, not a cut down rifle barrel, with VG-fine bore and about 60% worn original finish. 22” long with original front sight base. Previous owner had replaced the front sight blade and added some sort of ramp to the sight for chasing innocent woodland creatures. The ramp was removed, leaving some scratches and file marks visible in the photos, but easily smoothed out and touched up. Front sight blade can be reshaped and used, or may come out easily, or might have to be heated to overcome solder, whatever you want to do. Note that this is a genuine Model 1896 barrel with the squared shoulder at the back of the barrel threads, and will only work in 1896 receivers. (You could file the corner to a radius and then it would work on the M1898 or M1899 if you feel blasphemous. Wear pattern on the underside confirms this as on a M1896 short carbine stock. There is a piece of tape over the rear sight screw holes to keep crud out, making it look odd in the photos. $450.00 (View Picture) 1152 REMINGTON MODEL 513T .22 TARGET RIFLE BARREL - What you see is what you get. One Remington 513T target rifle barrel with about 97% original blue finish. Excellent bore. These are about 27 inches long. Pulled from excellent condition military .22 training rifles prior to demilitarization, or perhaps just new old stock barrels. The 513T was usually serial numbered on the bottom of the barrel, just ahead of the forend tip, but this barrel has NO NUMBER, nor signs that one was ever applied. This has the factory drilled, tapped and plugged holes for scope blocks. Front sight is in place. Great for that restoration of a 513T that Bubba butchered for his kids, or a prime barrel for a project where you want to rebarrel some other rifle. $135.00 (View Picture) 1196 CIVIL WAR .577 ENFIELD RIFLE MUSKET BARREL - Full length 39 inch barrel with decent nipple, no rear sight but front sight is present. Bore is partly good and partly rusty scale or crud. Rusty outside. Good relic or maybe for a decorator grade restoration project. Cheap! $35.00 (View Picture) 1195 U.S. MODEL 1868 .50-70 RIFLE BARREL - Serial number 41763 full length 32 ½ inches with VG-fine bore needing cleaning at the muzzle end. One ding on the crown of the muzzle. Outside as shown in the photos, pretty nice for the first foot or so, and about 8 inches at the muzzle, but moderately pitted in between. Good for restoration for a shooter grade rifle or some project needing a .50-70 barrel. Cheap! $65.00 (View Picture) 1146 STEVENS 520-30 RIOT GUN BARREL - with the ordnance bomb, P and punch mark on the barrel lug. Overall length is uncut at 20 inches long. Front sight bead missing. Reatins about 80% thinning dull blue gray finish. Excellent, bright bore. Someone’s restoration project needs this. $275.00 (View Picture) 1145 WINCHESTER MODEL 12 SHOTGUN BARREL- 12 GA, MODIFIED 28 INCH- - This is a non-factory replacement, excellent condition, bright and shiny. Front sight bead in place. About 97% commercial blue finish. Bore about perfect. Markings as shown in the photos. $75.00 (View Picture) 1144 WINCHESTER MODEL 12 RIOT GUN BARREL - A real one, 20.5 inches long with about 80% thinning original blue finish. Flaming bomb above the Winchester WP mark on top of the barrel and 42 date on the bottom. Bore is excellent. Front sight bead is in place. Price for this one is $350.00 (View Picture) 1143 WINCHESTER MODEL 12 TRENCH GUN BARREL - A real one, 20.5 inches long with about 95% original gray parkerized finish, flaming bomb above the Winchester WP mark on the top of the barrel, 44 date on the bottom. Three notches on the bottom near the muzzle for clearance on the bayonet lug screws. Excellent mirror bore. Now the bad part, Bubba needed a hunting gun, not a trench gun, so when these were sold by surplus dealers in the 1950s, they trashed the bayonet lugs and handguards, and threaded about 5/8” of the muzzle and attached a Weaver choke using different tubes for different choke patterns, making the barrel about 24 inches long and a little better for hunting. When attaching the choke, they used some sort of permanent Loctite or something and removing it may require lathe cuts rather than a big wrench and a lot of cussing. But, it is about impossible to find a real trench gun barrel these days, so options are limited. Price on this one is $350.00 (View Picture) 889 M1 GARAND BARREL- SPRINGFIELD ARMORY 2-1952 - New old stock, still in the greasy cosmoline wrap. Peeled back just enough to check the date. Not fake repro stuff or foreign copies or shot out takeoffs, but a brand new never installed original 1952 dated barrel made by Springfield Armory. Barrel marking (best I could read through the cosmoline) on top- D6535448 45 A165A and ordnance wheel; and on side S-A-2-52. $375.00 (View Picture) **SOLD** SMA2768 Barrel - Target Remington 721 - Probably Caliber .222 - Barrel is slightly under 27 inches in length and about 3/4 inches in diameter. Bore is bright ans shiny with excellent lands and grooves. Caliber verification and installation must be done by a competent gunsmith. $150.00 (View Picture) 12285 M1903A3 RIFLE BARRELS- ORIGINAL U.S. MILITARY- NEW OLD STOCK REPLACEMENT BARRELS - Once plentiful they are hard to find now, but essential to restore that otherwise mint M1903A3 rifle that Bubba got from DCM back in the 1960s for $14.50 and chopped the barrel to make a Bambi blaster. We found three in our secret stashof parts for projects and it is time they get a chance to finish up someone else’s projects. Remember, these will all need final chamber reaming for proper headspace, so installation by a competent gunsmith is recommended.
14437 M1 GARAND RIFLE BARREL- NEW OLD STOCK - Perfect bore, muzzle reading less than 1. About 98% original dark gray parkerize finish showing just some wear on high spots or scratches from storage. It looks crappy in the photos due to dirt and crud, and will clean up nicely with little more than wiping with WD-40. Right side markings SA 6535448 3 86 M080 P M [DOD acceptance stamp]. The 3 86 date is a marking error and should be 1966. New old stock, never on a rifle. Will need final chamber reaming for headspace. New barrels are really hard to find, and the Springfield Armory barrels are top quality. $265.00 (View Picture) 20634-x TRAPDOOR SPRINGFIELD BARRELS AND ACTIONS - Some goodies stashed away for projects that keep getting postponed, so might as well help someone else get started on a project of their own. SPRINGFIELD .50-70 MODEL 1868 Receiver only, serial number 5564. Overall good with patina and some light surface rust which should clean up. Sort of “W” mark scratched on right side.

I cannot make out the maker marks and trying to open will destroy the wrap, but these are original WW2 manufacture, not some repop from Slobovia. Price per magazine $45.00 (View Picture) 1044 SCARCE EARLY M1 CARBINE 30 ROUND MAGAZINES- “SEAMLESS BACK” - These extremely scarce early magazines were made in a “seamless” fashion where essentially the magazine body was formed and bent to shape. These have three stiffening grooves that curve parallel to the edges. The common later magazines have the side cut to shape and the back piece end over on the sides and then spot welded in place for a “seam” type construction. Made by SEY (Seymour Products). Genuine US GI, not junky after market fake. Cannot ship this to states run by idiots- you know which ones, so don’t waste your time or ours trying to order if you live there. A- Overall VG plus, about perfect on the right side, but left side has a small are of pitting around the middle, and on the bottom edge. $75.00 B- Overall VG- about perfect on the right side, but left side has some light rust and pitting which has been touched up, and looks worse in the photo than in real life. $65.00 C- Overall about good- about perfect on the right side, but left side has pitting on the upper part (hidden when in the gun) around the middle region. Still a decent representative example of a scarce early “seamless” magazine. $55.00 $1.00 (View Picture) 1053 WW1 5 ROUND BRASS STRIPPER CLIPS FOR M1903, M1917 AND BAR (LOT OF 12) - .30-06 ammunition for the M1903, and M1917 rifles and the Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR) was issued in five round stripper clips, packed 12 to a bandoleer (total of 60 rounds). During WW1 the clips ere made from brass, but during WW2 they used steel for the clips (with either steel or brass spring). These were intended as one time use items to be thrown away after stripping their five rounds into the rifle. These are used excellent condition, although a few may have one of the tiny metal tabs at the end of the spring broken off (and a few may have them broken at both ends). It is easy to make the clips function well again by slightly pinching the ends of the clip with a pair of pliers to provide enough tension to keep the rounds from slipping out accidentally. This is a lot of 12 WW1 brass five round stripper clips, enough to refill one bandoleer. $24.00 (View Picture) 1041 WW2 5 ROUND STEEL STRIPPER CLIPS FOR M1903, M1917 AND BAR (LOT OF 12) - .30-06 ammunition for the M1903, 1903A3, and M1917 rifles and the Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR) was issued in five round stripper clips, packed 12 to a bandoleer (total of 60 rounds). During WW1 the clips ere made from brass, but during WW2 they used steel for the clips (with either steel or brass spring). These were intended as one time use items to be thrown away after stripping their five rounds into the rifle. These are used VG-fine condition, but most will have one of the tiny metal tabs at the end of the spring broken off (and a few may have them broken at both ends).

I don’t know much about these guns or mags, but think they are all 10 round capacity for the “100 series” Duramatic, Supermatic, Olympic, Sport King, etc. These came from an estate, and while we think they will function okay, these are notorious for needing occasional tweaking of the feed lips with a special tool for reliable feeding.

16614 M1 CARBINE MAGAZINE RUBBER DUST CAPS - (Ruth, War Baby II, p. 582) Made from rubber, these can slip over the open end of any M1 Carbine magazine to keep out dirt, water, insects or nosy neighbors. They work very well, BUT we recommend you just show them as part of a display, or use them for a limited time. Experience has shown that they tend to accumulate moisture and the chemicals in the rubber will cause rust and pitting if left on the magazines for an extended period (months or years, not days or weeks). Some are found pretty stiff and petrified, but these are nice a pliable.

However, this is a very early one that includes “PAT.

Sights, Scopes, Mounts & Bases, Binoculars, etc. 1266 RARE ORIGINAL WW2 GERMAN ZF-41 SNIPER SCOPE, MOUNT AND CARRYING CASE - Good optics- Has both sunshades. This is original WW2 item, not one of the many fakes made in recent decades. Scope made by clb (Woehler, Dr FA, Optische Fabrik, Kassel). and is the ZF-41, not the later ZF-41/1. Mount and case are both numbered 9696. Both upper scope pieces are lightly electric penciled “96.” The Zf 40 Carrying Case (“Behaelter”) was made by jvb (Wessel & Mueller,in Luckenwalde. It is the early type with a metal tube in the case to hold a cleaning brush, with webbing instead of leather straps, so it is not the earliest type, but earlier than many. The hinged compartment contains the original Klarinol cleaning cloth. These were used with the Kar98k having the mounting rail on the left side of the rear sight base. There are a lot of fake rifles and bases out there, but if you have an original rifle, you really need this original scope, mount and carrying case to complete your WW2 German sniper rifle outfit. $1750.00 (View Picture) 1141 WW2 Japanese Type 99 Rifle sight leaf assembly WITH ANTI -AIRCRAFT WINGS - used good, what you see is what you get. $45.00 (View Picture) 1139 MARBLES TANG SIGHT MODEL 009810- FOR WINCHESTER MODEL 1886 WITH TANG SAFETY.

The same base was used for both the Model 1898 and Model 1902 rear sight, and except for the shape of the curve for elevation, it is the same as for the carbines.

Appears to be unused but has a couple tiny scratches in the finish as if someone slipped it in once to check fit, but no evidence of turning of the elevation or windage adjustment screws. Comes with a spare rear sight aperture. Front sight looks like it is for the M1911 style slide, so I am guessing that the rear sight is intended for a M1911 also, but with the dovetail recut to the larger size.

1256 U.S. MODEL 1887 SLING FOR .45-70 TRAPDOOR RIFLES (2nd type) - The earliest Trapdoor slings were made from two Civil War musket slings spliced together to get the needed 68-72 inch length for the longer spacing on the M1868 and later trapdoors, and they retained the single hook of the musket slings. Circa 1887, a new sling was adopted, made of a single piece of leather and using a much stronger double claw brass hook, but with very thin claws. A few years later, a stronger hook made of thicker brass was adopted, basically the same claw as used on the familiar M1907 slings. This is the second type with the thicker claw. The leather is in good condition, but having surface finish cracking. It has been treated with Pecard leather treatment. This has one small keeper loop. Probably the best M1887 sling we have had. No markings noted. Hard to find the M1887 slings in any sort of decent condition. $165.00 (View Picture) 1287 U.S. GI M1 CARBINE SLING WITH “D” TIPS - The first type of M1 carbine sling used thin ”C” shaped tabs at the ends to keep them from unraveling. Later they switched to a heavier solid tip that looks like the letter D. This is an okay late WW2 through Vietnam era sling with the OD webbing and “D” tips. No markings, which is typical. There is some rust and moderate to heavy pitting on the metal parts, and little of the parkerized finish remains. What you see is what you get. $35.00 (View Picture) 1286 U.S. GI M1 CARBINE SLING WITH “D” TIPS - The first type of M1 carbine sling used thin ”C” shaped tabs at the ends to keep them from unraveling.

All are in usable condition for display on a WW1-WW2 U.S. military arm, considering they are up to 100+ years old, so don’t go playing Rambo with them. All have both sling keepers. Most are WW1 dated, and while made for WW1, the Army continued to use WW1 era slings in WW2 even as more were being made and even after switching to the web slings. The Brits even used them on their No 4 Mk I(T) sniper rifles. All are decades overdue for treatment with leather care product of your choosing, (but NEVER use neatsfoot oil on anything!)
1121 U.S. MODEL 1904 (1905?) LEATHER SLING FOR KRAG RIFLES - See Brophy M1903 book, pages 434-435 for discussion of all the slings for the M1903 rifles. This one is about 48 inches long and has three sets of adjusting holes extending beyond the securing button. Brophy lists as “Model 1904”on page 434 in the heading, the caption for the sling photo on the next page lists a Model 1905 (not 1904). In addition to THIS sling which is 48 inches long with the three sets of holes made for the Krag, there is another Model 1904 (1905?) sling made for the M1903 rifle that is 50 inches long, with TWO sets of adjusting holes. These only used one sling keeper. Overall about good condition. Someone cut an additional hole for the brass stud along with an extra pair of holes. Price adjusted to reflect these alterations. An cheap original Krag sling, albeit slightly post Span Am War period. $65.00 (View Picture) 1120 U.S. [Model 1885?] LEATHER SLING FOR KRAG RIFLE - Also used with early M1903 rifles. An earlier version with the brass claw hook made much thinner was used on .45-70 trapdoor rifles. About 70 inches long with heavy bras claw on one end. Other end is folded over with brass stud securing it in place. Comes with two leather keepers. Used, good condition with semi-legible ROCK ISLAND ARESNAL markings. It had gotten wet at some point and about 18 inches in the center (where the holes are) is noticeably stretched. Leather is generally very good and flexible, except cracked and weakened but still intact at the first set of holes. I used to get these all the time, but this is first one in 3-4 years now. Needs good treatment with leather care product of your choice- just DO NOT USE NEATSFOOT OIL! $95.00 (View Picture) 991 M1 CARBINE SLINGS- TAKE YOUR PICK- What you see is what you get.

SMA2770 WWII German P.08 (Luger) Holster Dated 1942 - Holster is stamped on back ``gfg / 1942 Eagle over WaA101 P.08``. The German WW-II Heerswaffenamt inspector's mark eagle over `WaA101` was assigned to Karl Hepting & Co., Leder- u. Gurtelfabrik, Stuccgart, Germany. It is stamped with the year of manufacture `1942` and the manufacturers code gfg which is the WW-II German ordnance code assigned to Karl Hepting & Co., Leder- u. Gurtelfabrik, Stuccgart, Germany. The finish of the holster would rate about 90 - 95% with some wear on the flap. The stitching is still white, this indicates that the holster is in original condition and has not been `touched up` or polished with shoe polish. The leather including the flap and buckle strap is supple and in good condition. Overall a very nice holster, complete and in original condition. $395.00 (View Picture) SMA2771 Excellent WWII German P.08 (Luger) Holster Dated 1938 - Holster is stamped on back ``E.K.St. e/WaA101/1938``. The German WW-II Heerswaffenamt inspector`s mark eagle over `WaA101` was assigned to E. K. St. Ernst Kurz, Stuttgart, Germany. It is stamped with the year of manufacture `1938`. The finish of the holster would rate about 90 - 95% with some wear on the flap. The stitching is still white, this indicates that the holster is in original condition and has not been `touched up` or polished with shoe polish. The leather including the flap and buckle strap is supple and in good condition. The name of a previous owner (possibly the GI who liberated the holster is scrateched on the back (see picture). Overall a very nice holster, complete and in original condition. $395.00 (View Picture) **SOLD** SMA2802 WWII German P.08 (Luger) Holster Reproduction Luftwaffe - The leather of this holster is a pleasing brown color, it is stamped on front with the Luftwaffe eagle, it is stamped on back with ``Karl Bocker /1939 / Warbrol / E / WaA721 P.08`` Since this is a reproduction, the finish of the holster would rate about 99%. The stitching is excellent. The leather including the flap and buckle strap is supple and in almost new condition. Overall a very nice Luger holster at an expensive price. $35.00 (View Picture) **SOLD** SMA2804 Holster for the German P.08 Luger Long (Artillery) Model - This is a reproduction holster in almost new condition, comes with the cleaning rod. $50.00 (View Picture) **SOLD** SMA2807 US M4(?) hip holster for M1917 revolvers. - Made by TEXTAN in 1942 according to markings on the back. This was intended to be worn on the right side with butt to the rear, as prescribed during WW2, unlike the WW1 issue M1909 holsters which were worn on the right side, but with the butt to the front for ``crossdraw``. The leather and stitching are in good condition with no cracking and allot of small scuffs and scrapes from normal use. The tip and lanyard ring are both missing. A good example, that could use a little care but will clean up nicely. $65.00 (View Picture) SMA2719 RAF British Pattern 1937 ``Pistol Case`` (Holster) and Cleaning Rod - RAF Blue gray - These holsters were designed to fit the then regulation .380 caliber Enfield and Webley revolvers, but they were also used with the Lend-Lease S&W .38 revolvers, and with the Browning High Powers. There is provision for a cleaning rod inside. Khaki or tan color was used mostly by the Infantry, and these were made in other colors as well, with blue gray for the RAF. The same basic pattern continued in use for many decades following WW2. $55.00 (View Picture) **SOLD** SMA2766 Handsome British Web Holster For the Webley Mark VI Revolver .455 caliber revolver. - Excellent condition. No stains, tearing of fraying. Good clear markings on the inside of the flap ``K. L. & T. LTD. (Canadian broad arrow) / 1943``). Just the thing to really dress up your .455 revolver. $150.00 (View Picture) SMA2721 Reproduction US Model 1907 Sling. - Like new condition, pleasing light brown color. Correct type repro sling for the 1903, 1903A3, P17 or M1 Garand. Looks like the real thing and would make a nice inexpensive alternative to the higher priced original. $35.00 (View Picture) SMA2715 Excellent WWII German Hard Shell P.38 Holster Manufactured in 1943. - Holster is marked on back with the year of manufacture ``1943``, WW-II German ordnance code ``jln`` assigned to Deutsche Lederwerkstatten GmbH, Pirmasens, with the German WW-II Heerswaffenamt inspector`s mark eagle over 145 which is correct for Lederwerkstatten GmbH and the model designation ``P.38``. Holster is in very good condition and has never been polished or touched up, as is evidenced by the stitching which still white. Leather is supple with no cracking. The holster has some wear on the edges and some small scuffs and scrapes but overall it is an excellent example of a WWII vintage P.38 holster. $350.00 (View Picture) 7162 U.S. MODEL 1896 CARTRIDGE BOX FOR M1892-1903 COLT DOUBLE ACTION .38 CALIBER REVOLVERS - (Meadows Holster book page 402) A very handsome example with nice russet leather and clean markings- embossed US on the front and Rock Island Arsenal 1908 on the back. Wooden block inside drilled for 12 individual rounds. Many of these were later modified by removing the block for use with the M1909 .45 caliber revolvers, or by removing the belt loops and punching holes in the back for attaching wires for use on the Mills belts, making unmolested examples fairly scarce. Overall fine-excellent, except the leather flap is weak at the top corner fold, as is usually the case. One of the nicest we have had. $110.00 (View Picture) 17091 U.S. WW2 M1916 HOLSTER FOR M1911 .45 AUTOMATIC- UPDATED AFTER 1956 WITH BLACK FINISH - A very nice example of a standard M1916 holster made in Denver, CO by Craighead, one of the smaller makers, but the quality is excellent. Condition is about excellent as well, showing only slight signs of use. Made when russet leather was regulation, they chaned in 1956 to black leather accoutrements, and many of the WW2 era holsters were simply dyed black using leather dye and made ready for issue instead of throwing away good gear and paying for replacements. Scarce maker, nice condition and the “oddity” factor of the color change all make this a desirable piece. $95.00 (View Picture) 20560 WW2 WEB "SLING, M1" FOR M1 GARAND AND OTHER RIFLES - Used about good, with faint and illegible stamped marking by the buckle end commonly found on the 1944-45 produced slings. One ¼” cut in the edge of the webbing drops this down from G-VG condition, along with the price. This is the late WW2 light OD color, not the post war darker green OD. $29.00 (View Picture) 18140 U.S. MODEL 1907 LEATHER RIFLE SLINGS- YOU CLEAN AWAY THE UGLY AND YOU SAVE! - I have had several boxes of these lurking in the corner for 20+ years, but I really hate to mess around cleaning leather. Some people swear by saddle soap, others insist that Black Rock is good stuff, while some claim that Pecard is a miracle elixir, and elitists will allow nothing but British Museum Leather Dressing to grease their palms. I just swear a lot even thinking about messing with leather at all, so don’t ask me which is best. Everyone agrees that neatsfoot oil is a kiss of death and will destroy leather quickly, so DO NOT USE NEATSFOOT OIL!!! So, my procrastination compounded annually adds up to huge savings for you. I have divided these into three categories- I don’t want to mess around taking individual photos, but here is one photo of the box of dead cow parts. You need to trust me to sort these into the three categories to fit your budget and zeal for messing with old leather. (View Picture)
19621 WW2 M1916 HOLSTER FOR M1911 .45 AUTO PISTOL- BOYT-44 - Fine to excellent condition, with the leather leg strap, clearly marked BOYT 44. Not quite minty, but pretty nice. $125.00 (View Picture) 14842 M1 CARBINE SLING & OILER - Genuine U.S. GI, not some aftermarket or foreign copy. Oiler retains about all of its dark gray parkerize finish and is marked IS on the base. Sling is dark OD we with "D" clips on the ends. Ink stamped Mildew Resistant Treatment marking MRT over illegible date, probably circa 1950s.

Very good holster with sharp BOYT 44 markings. Back is still brown, but front has been dyed black to conform with the 1956 change to black leather.

Used very little, although the leg lanyard has been nicely braided and just suffering from poor storage. Medium brown color, markings a bit hard to read but should pop after cleaning. This was the Sears Leather Company, not Sears Roebuck. $115.00 (View Picture) 7906F- M1916 HOLSTER FOR M1911 .45 AUTO- ENGER KRESS Overall fine condition with medium tan color. Gently used with the leg lanyard braided, and needing a good cleaning to look even nicer. $149.00 (View Picture) 7906G- M1916 HOLSTER FOR M1911 .45 AUTO- GRATON & KNIGHT Overall excellent condition with medium tan color, probably unissued with some a few small scuffs and minor flattening from storage with nothing in it.

Holster is a pleasing tan color and is in very good to excellent condition but it has some spots which may or may not clean up. A good coat of oil or shoe polish would help to even out the color. A great accessory to add to your authentic M40 pistol. $100.00 (View Picture) SMA2561 Original Holster For The Swedish M40 Lahti Pistol - These holsters came with brass fittings and integral pockets for two magazines, cleaning tool and takedown tool (magazines and tools sold separately).

Later they switched to a heavier solid tip that looks like the letter D. This is an okay late WW2 through Vietnam era sling with the OD webbing and “D” tips. No markings, which is typical. There is some rust and moderate to heavy pitting on the metal parts, and little of the parkerized finish remains. What you see is what you get. $35.00 (View Picture) 22806 U.S. GI M1 CARBINE SLING WITH “D” TIPS - The first type of M1 carbine sling used thin ”C” shaped tabs at the ends to keep them from unraveling.

Some flaking, cracking and stretching and a bit dry at the folds, so not recommended for actual use, but fine for display.

In addition to use during WW1, many of these were still in service and used throughout WW2. $125.00 (View Picture) SMA2427 Excellent Early Brown WWII German P.08 (Luger) Holster Dated 1938. - Holster is stamped on back with the German WW-II Heerswaffenamt inspector's mark eagle over ``WaA523``, the year of manufacture (1938) and the manufacturers name (A.FIACHER/GUTTSTADT).

The stitching is still white, this indicates that the holster is in original condition and has not been ``touched up`` or polished with shoe polish. The leather including the flap and buckle strap is supple and in good condition. Overall a very nice holster, complete and in original condition. Early Nazi period holsters like this with brown instead of black finish are extremely hard to find. $350.00 (View Picture) 20669 U.S. G.I.
