Repo Field Gear Collector
I picked this up at the last DACA show, actually from one of our members who was kind enough to hold it for me so thank you again. This is my first experience with one of these little units and it is quite interesting! The whole concept and design just screams of its German origin haha.
I received what is shown here and nothing more, so I may have to build a little box for it as well. I realized I failed to get any pictures of it out of the action, so I will have to snap some more, but I believe it is a bolt m/m. I lucked out with the donor rifle, it has a 7,92 bore and a decent bit of wear so the unit fit perfectly on the first try! I wasn’t expecting the bolt to be canted at such an angle when in battery so that was a surprise. It has an interesting mix of proofs, and some of them I can’t quite make out. Overall it’s a very impressively designed unit and I can’t wait to try it out, we’re planning to test fire it with another slightly later Erma unit and we’ll see how they stack up against eachother.
Sorry for the crap indoor lighting but I know Ken had asked to see it so I went ahead and snapped some.
