before you buy understand if you are getting an alloy or steel tube -rail -e.g Nickel made many lightweight alloy models that one has been taken from a break open single shot rifle or drilling attempting to remove the rail can be done but is essentially impractical either buy a scope without...

thanks for that, you had basically confirmed its commercial origins with your previous notes about serialling _____________________________________________________

here’s the foto – probably you’ve seen it already If not, its from the website below – btw regrettably that’s not my own collection of scopes - maybe its your own– but I’ve got a few , maybe a lot, depending on individual perceptions of what is a few and what is a lot - lol...

you were asked in an earlier post to provide text of any publication in your possession disproving my comments about efficacy of soft solder etc - you have'nt done that you subsequently plagiarised the essence of the info I posted there is no point communicating with you further I keep...

my enquiry was prompted by a foto I've seen of a scope and mounts on a bare Mannlicher 95 barreled action - but that foto is cropped so there is no way for me to note the length of the barrel (to determine if it is on a rifle or a carbine) in the pic it is a M95 military action but of course...

IN THE PAST the only way plebs could get a licence to own a 98k in the UK was to buy either a dewat or a conversion to shotgun - are you sure its not been converted to single shot 410 shotgun? - in those conversions the barrel is smooth bored and the front locking lugs are ground, with the lock...

can anyone advise do the Austrian WW1 issue M95 scoped sniper rifles have serial numbers of rifle on either scope base or on scope tube or upper mount fixed to tube, possibly all locations etc and, if as a general rule they are serialled , have any genuine non-serialled scopes (with fixed upper...

you have basically repeated the bulk of the HOW- TO- DO- IT info that I provided including confirming the use of low-melting point solder is the best way to go in lieu of silver solder whenever doing soldering on a firearm, and this is what Kunhausen’s authoritative guide says and is in complete...

dear tjg79 You’re obviously upset with what I said – maybe you are a gunsmith – and my rendering the facets of the trade down to things able to be performed by any average person offends your concept of how things should be. What you have tried to assert is just so trivial … it demeans you...

I once had a gunsmith mount a scope on a 98 and it was done off centre bore In the meantime I've mounted lots of scopes and also made my own q/d mounts (that do return to zero!) so these jobs are not impossible to do at all for anyone with basic tools skills and proper care a first timer...

is the bayo mount possibly a postwar French occupation use adaptation? why don't you take it off and post up some clear pics of how it is made-up

that sentence is comprised of personal observations, information gathered over time from various sources including actual experiences as related to me by persons I have known , plus material obtained from available literature from respected authors- btw it wasn't Ackley but Julian Hatcher -...

you're 100% right about 'breaking' the tension - it would frighten a novice to see it performed on his favorite rifle, but some come easy (FN's usually) and some are nightmare - if its German or czech made headpacing is hardly ever an issue even with a straight barrel swap, and don't forget...

some very good suggestions from knowledgeable folk - all I would add is find a used replacement 8x57 barrel in good condition and get a competent gunsmith to simply screw the old off and the new on - don't be put off by all the wrong and exaggerated claims you might see on the net about...

is that the smell of an over-ripe turd coming this way on the breeze.............. _____________________________________________________________

I'm with you on this - the stippling looks like it was probably done by someone whose seen stippling but did'nt have an example in front of him as a guide to follow so result is exceptionally crude - applied using a too large and blunt tool compared to much finer more dense stippling that one...

its a 22 rf there is no recoil - look at all serious competition 22 rf rifles even current made Walther and Anschutz - none of them requires the shooter to consciously have to bend head forward to get the eye to the aperture, particularly in the standing upright shooting position and as you...

grimpo I understood perfectly well what you meant by tired chamber (agalland pls note) and that it meant oversize/worn but they don't really wear out they are made 'large' to handle dirty or possibly out of spec ammo in a military situation - hence why I asked if the cause of splittting was case...
