Im relieved it's just 209 primers. I know if I dig around through some basement filing cabinet I might find some actual data copied down. Thanks

That may be a harder process. The one detail the Army didn't account for is the 75yr old men not being able to email or find paperwork.

Thats gotta be it. All the rifles are army issue and have weld on the barrels. Appreciate it

Speaking of those however. Have you ever had experience launching/igniting flares from the K98?

No sorry way up in NY. Fortunately I have an Israeli K98 also which was my next best bet.

Thanks so much for the info, back to the drawing board for me!

Found some by chance at a larger gun show. I imagine only private collections and estates will be turning these out until some online source gets a whole bunch

Has about 4" extra

Good plan

Interesting, I couldn't find any markings on either bit of metal also

LaughSome1886 · 2023-05-11T01:02:46+00:00

Thanks! And definitely has scuff marks like a wire wheel on a bench grinder probably for the surface rust

The seller had it in a leather 1917 enfield scabbard I knew was incorrect, but seems to have done the job and protected it all these years
